US summer temperatures have declined over the last 80 years.
Cooler summers aren’t going to scare anyone into funding climate fraud, so NCDC has created a hockey stick of adjustments, cooling older temperatures by as much as two degrees, and warming the most recent summers in a very impressive hockey stick of data tampering.
The US. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that a six-foot sea-level rise would destroy as much as 80 percent of this country’s coastal wetlands.
Sea level has risen 120 metres over the last 20,000 years. All the wetlands must be at the bottom of the sea – along with the missing heat.
If by 2050 the Florida Keys “will no longer exist,” in the words of Elton J, Gissen-danner, past executive director of the Florida Department of Natural Resources, then around the world entire nations may face major disruption or even near or total extinction.
Now if they could just get sea level to rise at the Florida Keys.
“The irony,” says Schneider, “is that this possibly unconnected event has brought us to the right level of consciousness about the problem, a level that should have been reached about fifteen years ago. The point is that there is no controversy—none—about the existence of the greenhouse effect. It’s the best established theory in the atmospheric sciences.”
As evidence, there is the Goldilocks phenomenon: the wildly differing conditions on three neighbor planets: Mars, Venus, and Earth. The atmosphere of Mars is about 95 percent carbon dioxide, but it is exceedingly tenuous, more than 100 times thinner than Earth’s. So little of the sun’s heat is trapped by the atmosphere that the planet is colder than a deep freezer. Winter at the Martian poles brings temperatures of minus 180 degrees F. That’s too cold for life,
Venus lies at the other end of the gamut. Its atmosphere, 97 percent carbon dioxide, is very thick. The pressure at the Venusian surface is 90 times Earth’s. As a result, Venus has been called a ‘”runaway greenhouse,” If Mars is like a deep freezer, Venus basks in the temperature of a self-cleaning oven, about 900 degrees F— too hot for life.
Schneider demonstrates that Venus is hot because of its very thick atmosphere, and not because of its atmospheric chemistry, and then concludes that the heat must be due to its atmospheric chemistry.
Obama says he doesn’t have time to talk to flat earther’s, which includes Tony Abbott and John Howard. Regardless, he really has no reason to go down under anymore.

Our friends from Real Climate and elsewhere have insisted that Scenario B was their “business as usual” scenario. But this 1989 Popular Science quotes Hansen and colleagues as saying it was Scenario A.
I am absolutely shocked that government climate scientists would lie. I’m also terrified by that map, seeing that we are all going to burn up in the next six years.
Big oil wants to destroy the planet, and big government wants to rescue the planet from the evil oil companies. That is why government goes to war every few months to keep the flow of oil coming in from the Middle East.
Scientists who take money from big oil are evil, but scientists who take money from big government are pure of heart. Government scientists cheat, lie and tamper with data for your own good – and just don’t get enough respect for their noble efforts.
There were no 100ºF readings in Illinois this year.
Prior to 1955, 100ºF readings were very common, but over the last 80 years they have diminished and are now quite rare.
The frequency of 90ºF readings in Wisconsin has dropped 75% since the 1930’s.
