They asked Muller the wrong questions. Warming is miniscule, and the little warming we have seen isn’t primarily due to CO2.
Muller’s graph shows very clearly the effect of the PDO on the “global temperature.” Around 1940 and 1977, PDO polarity reversed. Warming is associated with a positive PDO. The PDO is now negative and there has been no warming over the last decade.

One month ago I wrote this about the Berkeley scam.
So they have to mess with people’s minds.

NSIDC told us on March 23 “Annual maximum ice extent reached” and “This year’s maximum tied for the lowest in the satellite record.”
In fact it is the latest maximum on record (indicating a cold spring) and ice extent is higher than 2005 and 2006 – the two years with the highest summer minimums in the DMI record.
Mark Serreze at NSIDC wrote in 2008 :
“As the climate warms, the summer melt season lengthens …”
Last year was the shortest melt season on record.
Looks like 2011 might be even shorter.
Anyone calling themselves a scientist who believes in catastrophic global warming, is a scientist. Anyone who doesn’t believe in catastrophic global warming is not a scientist. Therefore, all scientists believe in catastrophic global warming.
Last spring, the nonpartisan National Academy of Sciences reviewed the available facts and declared that “A strong, credible body of scientific evidence shows that climate change is occurring
And I thought there were still dinosaurs walking around my neighborhood. NAS is freaking brilliant.
During the 1960s and 1970s, the snow was cold snow. But now it is hot snow.
I know. Moscow last July makes up 90% of the planet and 90% of the year.
