Real Climate Science

CO2 levels were 330 ppm in 1974. Why does 350.org want to bring back the death and destruction?

Anyone familiar with weather modeling knows that “chaos” is exactly the reason why weather can’t be predicted more than about 72 hours into the future. The weather/climate system is inherently chaotic.

Glaciers disappearing! Least ice ever recorded! Great changes to flora and fauna!

Last month GISS extrapolated the map on the left above (white is missing data) to the map on the right. Their algorithm creates a map showing almost the entire Arctic 2-11 C above normal. Their extrapolated data significantly skews the global temperature reading upwards. Hansen claimed a record in 2010 by only 0.01 degrees, yet he is creating artificial data 1000X larger. No serious scientist would make such a claim.

Now, let’s look at what is really happening in the Arctic, using the NOAA map below. On any given day, some parts of the Arctic are above normal and some parts are below – as much as 10C below normal. Large gradients can exist across small distances.

In other words. the GISS 120o km extrapolation algorithm is severely skewed, and pushes their calculated temperature numbers upwards by a large amount.
