Real Climate Science

Farming season in full swing in Nuuk, Greenland.

We have been ignoring their climate warnings for 35  years, and now we are paying the ultimate price.

Why couldn’t world leaders have stopped this when they met there two years ago?

Climate refugees are flocking to Alaska from California, where it is simply too hot now to support human habitation.

London is gone too. Why didn’t we listen?

And they just spent £15 million on Villas-Boas.

Hillary was in Greenland last month discussing the commercial opportunities of the ice-free Arctic. They need to move fast though, because new ice will start forming in about 10 weeks.

Your SUV caused the end of the LIA. The climate lobby are quite possibly the stupidest people who ever walked the planet.

A millennium later, it looks like North Carolina will suffer the consequences of climate change as well if we don’t adjust our lifestyles. Scientists have found evidence that over the past century, the Tar Heel state has suffered the steepest climate-associated sea level rise of the past 2,000 years. The coastal erosion that accompanies these rising sea levels, left unchecked by poor management, will bring significant losses to North Carolina – but this time it is property values, quality of life, and tourism that will be affected, and by climate change-induced temperature shifts in the other direction.

The research team, led by Andrew Kemp of the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Earth and Environmental Science, found that sea levels have risen at about 2.1 millimeters per year since the late 19^th century, compared to a rate of only 0.6 millimeters per year around the Middle Ages. Sea level was stable from B.C. 100 to A.D. 950, according to the scientists.

1) No single weather event is  caused by climate change; climate is defined as the sum total of weather, so the effect of a climate change on weather is only detectable in the aggregate statistics.

2) For some types of severe weather, such as tornadoes, the science doesn’t currently allow us to say that global warming is making them worse. So that shouldn’t be stated.

3) Nevertheless, global warming represents a key change operating in background of all weather—there’s more overall heat. This is certain to have a wide array of consequences—like a greater risk of heat waves, and more intense precipitation events–and indeed, some of those are already being detected.

Had humans had been this stupid in the past, we would still be living in caves.

 I .. propose another stunt for climate sceptics – put your strong views to the test by exposing yourselves to high concentrations of either carbon dioxide or some other colourless, odourless gas – say, carbon monoxide.

You wouldn’t see or smell anything. Nor would your anti-science nonsense be heard of again. How very refreshing.
