NASA satellites have been tracking the Earth’s temperature since 1979. All of the observed warming occurred during the the first half of the record (rebounding from the ice age scare and two large volcanic eruptions) and there has been no warming in the second half of the satellite record. The warmest year was 15 years ago and temperatures have been declining for the entire 21st century.
The Greenland ice sheet is melting more than six times faster than just a decade ago. And whatever changes take place will only be reversible over many hundreds, even thousands, of years.
That is truly amazing, considering that the center of the ice sheet didn’t make it above freezing at any time this summer, and that the Petermann Glacier has grown a kilometer since alarmists got hysterical about it in 2010.
In 1940, Greenland was warmer than now and melting was nearing a catastrophe.

By far the largest number of local glaciers in north-east Greenland had receded very greatly during recent decades, and it would not be exaggerating to say that these glaciers were nearing a catastrophe.
No lie or garbage statistic is too big for the scum pushing this scam.

Not only is the IPCC reporting junk science, but they are interfering with people who are trying to do real science.
by Judith Curry
Diagnosis: paradigm paralysis, caused by motivated reasoning, oversimplification, and consensus seeking; worsened and made permanent by a vicious positive feedback effect at the climate science-policy interface.

Barber said the ice is getting so weak that new categories have had to be created for it. “We have a whole new class of sea ice in the Arctic, which we’re calling ‘decayed ice,”‘ he said.

Barber’s decayed ice can be compared vs. 2006 below. Green shows the large increase in western Arctic sea ice since 2006. Red shows ice present in 2006, but not present today.
Most of the red ice was lost during the winter of 2006-2007 as it was transported out the Fram Strait. By contrast, the new green western Arctic ice will get very thick over the winter and be much harder to melt next summer – making climate alarmists even more angry and irrational, and causing them to say even stupider things to gullible members of the press corpse.

NOAA shows that 2012 was the most extreme weather year in US history, despite the fact that there was little extreme weather last year – other than Sandy which isn’t included in the index. According to their fake index, 2012 was almost three times as extreme as the very extreme year of 1936. Their claim is almost entirely based on very mild temperatures during the winter and spring of 2012. which they are trying to pass off as “extreme.”

incredibly quiet tornado season–there just aren’t any storms.
But what about the drought? The 1936 drought was at least as bad as the 2012 drought.
Bottom line is that some parts of NOAA are completely FOS. 1936 was much more extreme than 2012, by any reasonable standard.

The most extreme weather year in US history was 1936. It was marked by a record cold winter, followed by a record hot summer combined with extreme drought, tornadoes and flooding.

The way the system works, either Harry Reid or Obama are going to be the last one holding the ball when the government shutdown/debt default decision is made.
Boehner’s strategy is very low risk, because most Americans don’t want Obamacare. Obama has said that defaulting on the debt would be catastrophic, and he is going to be the one making that decision. He will be faced with a choice of ego vs. default. Either way he loses catastrophically, like what happened to him in Syria and with Snowden.
He thinks he can continue bullying, but has burned so many bridges with the American people that it is getting much harder for him. Bitter flat earthers who cling to guns and religion (his words) are sick and tired of this abusive tyrant.

Interesting that most of New York, Pennsylvania, California, Oregon and Washington voted against Obama.
