Real Climate Science

540 people were killed by a tornado which hit St. Louis in May, 1896.

Remarkably, NOAA has brought most of them back to life!

If we were to fully exploit this new oil source, and continue to burn our conventional oil, gas and coal supplies, concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere eventually would reach levels higher than in the Pliocene era, more than 2.5 million years ago, when sea level was at least 50 feet higher than it is now.

Lots of things were different in the Pliocene. If we assume that CO2 controls all natural processes – like Hansen does – look for a return of giant pigs.

The global warming signal is now louder than the noise of random weather, as I predicted would happen by now in the journal Science in 1981. Extremely hot summers have increased noticeably. We can say with high confidence that the recent heat waves in Texas and Russia, and the one in Europe in 2003, which killed tens of thousands, were not natural events — they were caused by human-induced climate change.

The hottest month in US history was July, 1936.

The hottest week in US history was during July, 1913 in Death Valley California. The hottest temperatures in Arizona history occurred twenty years ago.  No continent has set an all time heat record in over 40 years. Europe’s record temperature occurred during the 1880s. Half of US states set their all time temperature record during the 1930s.

When Hansen reports “we can say with confidence” – who is he talking about? What caused the hot weather in the 1930s?

Yesterday, Hansen called for permanent drought from Texas to North Dakota.

Eight inches of rain in parts of Texas this past week. Good call Jim.

It was warm in March over Jeff Masters. The warm spot during March occupied almost 5% of the planet, and that is all the evidence we need to turn control of the US over to the UN.

A few weeks ago, Hansen was caught massively altering the temperature record in Iceland – to produce a non-existent warming trend, and disappear that pesky warm 1930s and 1940s.

Paul Matthews points out that Hansen has a new version of the graph, which isn’t as bad as the one from a few weeks ago, but has now disappeared the pre-1940 warming.

Data.GISS: GISS Surface Temperature Analysis

Even with the recent corrections, GISS is still not in agreement with CRUTEM, which shows no warming since 1930. The non-homogenized GISS data is supposed to be unadjusted historical temperatures. How did the past change?

Scientists have repeatedly claimed to find life on Mars, proving once again that there is little or no intelligent life on Earth.

Percival Lowell was a well respected researcher in the late 19th/early 20th centuries – who proved that Mars had intelligent life forms, which were actively irrigating and farming the planet.

He also warned that climate change would bring permanent drought to Earth.

Billions of dollars are spent every year to speculate on what the climate would be like below 350 ppm CO2. This is possibly the stupidest venture in scientific history, because we have huge amounts of historical information available about what the climate actually was like below 350ppm.

The primary purpose of climate models is to legitimize confirmation bias. Modelers will obtain whatever result they seek to obtain.
