Real Climate Science

In case you were wondering why temperatures warmed rapidly from 1976 to 1998.

In case you were wondering why GISS and NOAA have had to start cheating so hard since 1998.

I have looked through my posting statistics, and have determined that I make fun of individuals of all races in correct proportion to their percentage of the population. For example – my previous post trashed a white Englishman, a black Englishman, a Scot, a Dutchman and a Mexican.

I do promise not to trash Joe Biden any more than he deserves.

“Remarkable Changes”

“Our generation is living in a period when remarkable changes are taking place almost everywhere throughout the world,” writes Professor L. Berg, of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. “‘Certainly these widely distributed phenomena cannot be due to the action of the Gulf Stream, which, however, naturally receives its share of the greater general warmth.” The slow thawing of the Arctic is given as a partial explanation for the record voyages of Soviet ice-breakers to northern latitudes, which have never before been reached by navigating vessels. The Sadko in 1935, in ice- free water of the North Kara Sea, steamed to 82 degrees, 42 minutes of northern latitude—an all-time record.

the Met Office’s decadal forecast predicts renewed warming after 2010 with about half of the years to 2015 likely to be warmer globally than the current warmest year on record.

16 Apr 1923 – THE NORTH POLE CAUSES OF CHANGE OF CLIMATE.

The world’s top climate experts said that an El Nino would make 2012 the hottest year ever.

The El Nino came, and 2012 has been colder than 2010 every day except for nine days – averaging 0.36 degrees below 2010.

Thank you climate experts for being completely incompetent about the climate.

Global warming is going to make UK summers cold.
