Real Climate Science

On Christmas Eve, 1955 Kansas reached 90ºF.

83% of US Christmas Eve warmth records were set prior to 1965

Two thousand years ago, big government felt threatened by an infant, and ordered the massacre of all male babies in Bethlehem.

Over the past 100 years, big government has killed 100 million additional civilians.

Progressives see big government as the solution to all problems.

Do bigger governments lead to happier people?

In 1997, GISS showed 0.8ºC warming in the Northern Hemisphere from 1885 to 1940 – when CO2 was 310 PPM. Over the next 45 years, only 0.2ºC additional warming has occurred.

No wonder Hansen decided to rewrite history. There is no CO2 footprint in the actual temperature record.

Venus is a perfect example of the greenhouse effect. Sunlight passes through the clouds in the form of radiation. The sunlight is absorbed by the surface causing it to heat. The cloud layer, which is opaque, traps the heat causing the greenhouse effect. Because of the heavy cloud layer, only about 2% of the sunlight reaches the surface of Venus. Imagine what it would be like if 100% of the light reached the surface.

Venus

A place which receives almost no light and is very hot, is obviously not being heated by the greenhouse effect. Venusian nights last for months, there is no incoming SW radiation, yet the temperature never cools down at all. Only a complete moron would blame the heat on Venus on “the greenhouse effect.”

Enter Sagan and Hansen.

In 1997, GISS showed that the Southern Hemisphere warmed from 1882 to 1910. Now they show the exact opposite.

Also in 1997, Hansen said he knew temperatures accurately within 0.07 degrees.

The annual-mean global-mean temperature anomaly in recent decades is estimated to have a two-sigma uncertainty of about 0.07°C due to incomplete spatial coverage of stations. Thus the relative rank of different years is uncertain for years whose temperatures differ by less than that amount.

So was he lying then, or is he lying now?

Omaha has never had a summer with less than 55 days over 80 degrees.

If he meant to say 90 degree days, they have dropped dramatically since 1895 and are now below 30/year for the first time. Hansen has absolutely no clue what he is talking about.

America’s newest, most expensive coal-fired power plantis hailed as one of the cleanest on the planet, thanks to government-backed technology that removes carbon dioxide and keeps it out of the atmosphere.

Making electricity prices skyrocket, just as he promised! We can all breathe easier knowing that an undetectable amount of an essential, invisible, harmless, odorless gas has been removed – at great expense.

a major puzzle in the global warming debate: why computer models have shown more significant warming than actual temperature data.

Fourteen years making the same excuse, and these geniuses still haven’t fixed the models.
