Found this article which you might be interested in – I find it fascinatingly delicious:

Here is the text of Newsweek’s 1975 story on the trend toward global cooling. It may look foolish today, but in fact world temperatures had been falling since about 1940. It was around 1979 that they reversed direction and resumed the general rise that had begun in the 1880s, bringing us today back to around 1940 levels. A PDF of the original is available here. A fine short history of warming and cooling scares has recently been produced. It is available here.

The Cooling World
Newsweek, April 28, 1975
There are ominous signs that the Earth’s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically and that these changes may portend a drastic decline in food production – with serious political implications for just about every nation on Earth. The drop in food output could begin quite soon, perhaps only 10 years from now. The regions destined to feel its impact are the great wheat-producing lands of Canada and the U.S.S.R. in the North, along with a number of marginally self-sufficient tropical areas – parts of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indochina and Indonesia – where the growing season is dependent upon the rains brought by the monsoon.
The evidence in support of these predictions has now begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologists are hard-pressed to keep up with it. In England, farmers have seen their growing season decline by about two weeks since 1950, with a resultant overall loss in grain production estimated at up to 100,000 tons annually. During the same time, the average temperature around the equator has risen by a fraction of a degree – a fraction that in some areas can mean drought and desolation. Last April, in the most devastating outbreak of tornadoes ever recorded, 148 twisters killed more than 300 people and caused half a billion dollars’ worth of damage in 13 U.S. states.
To scientists, these seemingly disparate incidents represent the advance signs of fundamental changes in the world’s weather. The central fact is that after three quarters of a century of extraordinarily mild conditions, the earth’s climate seems to be cooling down. Meteorologists disagree about the cause and extent of the cooling trend, as well as over its specific impact on local weather conditions. But they are almost unanimous in the view that the trend will reduce agricultural productivity for the rest of the century. If the climatic change is as profound as some of the pessimists fear, the resulting famines could be catastrophic. “A major climatic change would force economic and social adjustments on a worldwide scale,” warns a recent report by the National Academy of Sciences, “because the global patterns of food production and population that have evolved are implicitly dependent on the climate of the present century.”
A survey completed last year by Dr. Murray Mitchell of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reveals a drop of half a degree in average ground temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere between 1945 and 1968. According to George Kukla of Columbia University, satellite photos indicated a sudden, large increase in Northern Hemisphere snow cover in the winter of 1971-72. And a study released last month by two NOAA scientists notes that the amount of sunshine reaching the ground in the continental U.S. diminished by 1.3% between 1964 and 1972.
To the layman, the relatively small changes in temperature and sunshine can be highly misleading. Reid Bryson of the University of Wisconsin points out that the Earth’s average temperature during the great Ice Ages was only about seven degrees lower than during its warmest eras – and that the present decline has taken the planet about a sixth of the way toward the Ice Age average. Others regard the cooling as a reversion to the “little ice age” conditions that brought bitter winters to much of Europe and northern America between 1600 and 1900 – years when the Thames used to freeze so solidly that Londoners roasted oxen on the ice and when iceboats sailed the Hudson River almost as far south as New York City.
Just what causes the onset of major and minor ice ages remains a mystery. “Our knowledge of the mechanisms of climatic change is at least as fragmentary as our data,” concedes the National Academy of Sciences report. “Not only are the basic scientific questions largely unanswered, but in many cases we do not yet know enough to pose the key questions.”
Meteorologists think that they can forecast the short-term results of the return to the norm of the last century. They begin by noting the slight drop in overall temperature that produces large numbers of pressure centers in the upper atmosphere. These break up the smooth flow of westerly winds over temperate areas. The stagnant air produced in this way causes an increase in extremes of local weather such as droughts, floods, extended dry spells, long freezes, delayed monsoons and even local temperature increases – all of which have a direct impact on food supplies.
“The world’s food-producing system,” warns Dr. James D. McQuigg of NOAA’s Center for Climatic and Environmental Assessment, “is much more sensitive to the weather variable than it was even five years ago.” Furthermore, the growth of world population and creation of new national boundaries make it impossible for starving peoples to migrate from their devastated fields, as they did during past famines.
Climatologists are pessimistic that political leaders will take any positive action to compensate for the climatic change, or even to allay its effects. They concede that some of the more spectacular solutions proposed, such as melting the Arctic ice cap by covering it with black soot or diverting arctic rivers, might create problems far greater than those they solve. But the scientists see few signs that government leaders anywhere are even prepared to take the simple measures of stockpiling food or of introducing the variables of climatic uncertainty into economic projections of future food supplies. The longer the planners delay, the more difficult will they find it to cope with climatic change once the results become grim reality.

I’m not sure that they do look foolish, those believers in global cooling. I’m not certain that there is a lot of evidence that the end of the Little Ice Age, was an end. It may have been more of an interlude. I imagine it will take decades more, maybe a century, to determine which it was.
It dawned on me that I could include the image of the article itself from searches:

An open letter to Barack Obama, The New York Times et al
I get more upset every time Obama says global warming is settled science and the minions run around regurgitating “settled science” like they knew what they were talking about. Rightttttt, Mr. president, every single thing there is to know about our climate is known, postulated and confirmed and not only that, man can control the weather. Apparently someone is getting super powers for his birthday.
What exactly is settled science? Is the law of gravity settled science? My bet is that most would say yes because, Newton, duh! But you would be wrong, gravity is not settled science. In reality at the most basic level, no one actually knows what gravity is. Newton and Einstein did a lot to further our understanding but scientists are still looking for the answer to “what is gravity.”
In science virtually nothing is settled, there are only theories, hypothesis, and studies that have yet to be proven false. What does it take to prove a theory false? If the same results are not replicable using the same data points and procedures as the original theory – the original theory is proven false, if it can’t be replicated it is a false theory, if the results are different than the ones predicted it is a false theory and that is the end. No believers no deniers it is just time to use what was learned from the failed science and try again. That is how real science works.
In science there is no inquisition, no punishment for non believers, no name calling, no character assassination, no call to terminate a deniers employment and no attempt to silence science. If you are involved in or agree with personal and professional assaults on climate scientists it is clear that you do not respect science. Real science welcomes challenges and does not try to silence competing theories. Real science is neutral. Real science does not manipulate data or skew results for political purposes. Real science shouldn’t be complicit in hiding competing scientific inquiries. There is no consensus in science. Getting other scientists, school children, politicians and celebrities to believe and repeat your theory is not science. Real science does not believe or deny (belief is the province of religion and never, never, never,never, never science). In real science, if you have scientists with differing theories, study outcomes and hypothesis on the same subject you have unsettled science not believers and deniers. Real science presents for consideration or proves something false but it cannot prove something is true. Real science knows virtually nothing is settled that there are only studies, theories, hypothesis, and protocols that have been put forth and have not yet been proven to be false. Real science cannot be built on a deliberate lie.
If someone who can destroy the quality of your life and diminish you and your family tells you “science is settled” and that they know what is best for all mankind and you are just going to have to endure for the cause, you should know immediately that you are being lied to. If the people that govern you, those that have sworn to represent you, the journalists who report to you, or a teacher responsible for your education makes the blatantly false statement “science is settled” be afraid, be very afraid because they are not being truthful. Not only are they being less than truthful, they think you are stupid and gullible and most likely they have an agenda that is not in your best interest or they wouldn’t be running the con.
Some people think that it is okay to lie in order to promote their agenda that they claim is for the greater good, but nothing is farther from the truth. Because they refuse to look at and consider all of the science and because they have been less than truthful it would be wise to assume the sole purpose of global warming purveyors is to scare and intimidate the peasants into compliance with their own demise and expanding the power and wealth of those telling the lies.
To stand up and proclaim that we know everything there is to know about our climate and how to control it and there is “nothing else to see here, folks,” would be a joke if those spouting such nonsense weren’t deadly serious about what they are prepared to inflict on the peasants in the name of settled science.
I am not a fortune teller or a scientist so I don’t know if earth-scorching, man-killing, end-of-the-world global warming is real. I cannot claim to be a “believer” or a “denier” of global warming because I am not a stupid person. I have no political agenda – I just said no to gangs especially those that headquarter in Washington D.C. because they are far more vicious and destructive than any gang in the hood. I do know there is no such thing as “settled science.” I am afraid if you will lie about “settled science” and desperately try to discredit any science not in lock step with your “beliefs” I should be wary of what else you are willing to lie about or do in order to push your “beliefs.” It becomes more evident everyday that we know far less about our changing climate than we thought we did and far less than is necessary to be making life altering decisions,
Science cannot be settled, ask a scientist Mr. President and then send her over to talk to John Kerry. Apparently the smartest man in the room and his cronies slept thru science and didn’t even bother taking ethics.
Sincerely,
Peasant #2

I saw an article in Bloomberg today stating that scientists had observed the polar bear eating dolphin for the first time, and that this was most likely a result of global warming. I did a quick search in Google Books and found on page 7 of the Royal Natural History: Mammals (1894) a print of a polar bear and her cub consuming dolphin. That was most likely an artist making the observation though..

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is awfully certain that solar activity doesn’t meaningfully impact climate. In fact, their 2014 Synthesis Report Summary for Policymakers offers only one passing reference to solar activity in the entire document. On page 10, the report notes a curious caveat regarding predicted surface temperatures from 2016–2035: “This assumes that there will be no major volcanic eruptions …or unexpected changes in total solar irradiance.”
Other than that, solar variability is essentially dismissed in the IPCC worldview. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary driver of climate change, and that’s that.
But mankind has recognized the sun’s primal importance for eons. So how did the IPCC arrive at such certainty in discarding the impact of solar activity? After all, the sun’s variability appears to track rather closely with climate on millennial, centennial, and decadal timescales. For example, the Roman, Medieval, and Modern Warm periods all correspond with heightened solar activity. And the Little Ice Age suffered the cooling effects of not one, but three, solar minimums.
The IPCC’s aversion to solar irradiance apparently stems from two concerns.
First, there’s the divergence in trajectories over the past 30 years of measurements for temperature and solar activity.
The argument goes: Since solar activity stopped climbing around 1985 (and essentially peaked at that point), while surface temperatures kept climbing, this divergence proves that the sun isn’t driving temperatures.
But this is a mischaracterization. The Modern Solar Maximum peaked twice, first in the late 1950s and again in the mid 1980s. Starting around 1985, solar activity plateaued—but at levels higher than anything seen in the last 1,000 to 2,000 years. In essence, the sun remained at roughly full throttle until the mid-1990s—close to the starting point for the now infamous “pause” in surface temperatures.
Second, there’s the observation that, during the period ranging from about 1960 to 1995, stratospheric temperatures showed a net cooling. This decline occurred at the same time that surface temperatures were rising (driven, presumably, by increasing concentrations of CO2.) The absence of a parallel rise in stratospheric temperatures is thereby seen as negating the possibility of a solar connection.
A November 2013 statement from the World Meteorological Organization says: “…if warming had been caused by a more active sun, scientists would expect to see warmer temperatures in all layers of the atmosphere. Instead, they have observed a cooling in the upper atmosphere and a warming at the surface and in the lower parts of the atmosphere.”
The stratosphere is a funny bird, though. Unlike the troposphere, the stratosphere is a cold and inhospitable place. Not only is it riddled with ozone and ultraviolet radiation, but it displays the curious phenomenon of temperatures increasing with altitude (the inverse of what occurs in the troposphere.)
Significantly, ozone is the primary “greenhouse gas” of the stratosphere. As NASA explains it, “Ozone is both a major absorber of incoming ultraviolet in the stratosphere (leading to stratospheric heating) and a strong emitter in the thermal infrared spectrum.” Simply put, stratospheric temperature is maintained by concentrations of ozone. If ozone levels decline, for instance, temperatures in the stratosphere will fall.
This direct relationship between ozone and temperature became apparent during the mid-twentieth century. Ozone suffered an existential threat as the continued release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) ate away at its concentrations. Stratospheric ozone levels tumbled steadily from the late 1950s onward, creating a serious, and recognized, international problem. It wasn’t until the implementation of the Montréal Protocol in 1989 that real action to reduce CFCs took effect. Revisions to the Protocol subsequently led to a more complete ban on CFC production in 1996.
As NOAA’s Ozone Depleting Gas Index demonstrates, the Montreal Protocol has succeeded in gradually restoring ozone concentrations in the stratosphere. Specifically, CFC levels in the stratosphere continually rose until roughly 1996, the point at which the effects of the Montreal Protocol began to fully register. Starting in 1996, stratospheric CFC levels actually began to decline.
This action to restore ozone shows a remarkable correlation with recent stratospheric temperatures. Whereas cooling in the stratosphere was continually evident from 1960-1996, and tracked closely with falling ozone levels, temperatures have subsequently leveled off. Specifically, net temperatures in the stratosphere have remained essentially unchanged since the late 1990s.
It appears that the progressive cooling in the stratosphere during the twentieth century was forced by declining ozone, even as increased solar activity was driving a rise in surface temperatures.
The question, then, is whether the IPCC has considered this variable when citing stratospheric cooling as an invalidator of the solar activity thesis.
Certainly, the IPCC recognizes the connection between declining ozone and stratospheric cooling. Various reports establish this link, including a 2005 report, ‘Safeguarding the Ozone Layer and the Global Climate System,’ which notes: “Stratospheric ozone depletion has led to a cooling of the stratosphere. A significant annual-mean cooling of the lower stratosphere over the past two decades (of approximately 0.6 K per decade) has been found over the mid-latitudes of both hemispheres.”
One has to wonder why the IPCC has chosen to deny solar variability on the basis of cooling stratospheric temperatures. The evidence seems fairly clear that a decline in stratospheric temperatures was driven by declining ozone, a factor wholly unrelated to solar variability.
What’s rather striking is that the flat-lining of stratospheric temperatures since roughly 1998 corresponds quite remarkably with the current “pause” in surface temperatures. This prompts a question: Could the stabilization of ozone levels in the stratosphere help to explain the subsequent ‘pause?’
If so, would the IPCC wish to promote this fact? Such a correlation would finally solve a vexing, recent climate mystery. But it would also establish a more concrete solar connection to temperature variability.
The evidence is compelling, and the subject deserves further scrutiny.

Not here too??
Tony , some concepts that the master, you, may consider displaying more precisely and eloquently.
Concerning the pause, trends from ever changing baselines, as well as ranking of 1st, 2nd, 3rd warmest etcetera, often hide the most cogent facts showing a pause or decline in global mean temperature.
The best question is; do either UAH or RSS show any year close to as warm as 1998? The answer is no, they do not. Both show 1998 as the “warmest year ever” to quote the CAGW phrase, and not by a little bit.
Both UAH and RSS are ballpark .3 degrees below 1998. Both RSS and UAH show 2010, 2014, 2015 and other years as at least .3 degrees 0R MORE cooler then 1998.
Schmitt proclaimed a what, 34% chance that 2014 was the hottest year ever based on what .04 degrees? By that measure there is a 100 percent chance that RSS and UAH show that 1998 was the “warmest year ever”.
==================================================================
A further thought. Perhaps you have done this and I missed it. The USCRN network is much closer to the raw data for USHCN. Have you shown this? Is it possible to isolate RSS over the US, and compare the three, USHCN raw, USCRN, and RSS?

love the blog and the very convincing information about government corruption and fraud, Im in Thailand and the this IPCC/NASA/NOAA fraud is the worst and biggest case of corruption I have ever seen. and absolutely nothing done to prosecute it which means the US democracy is in failure. my suggestion is get rid of the nazi/jew gun control blog and other entries that are not related to climate science and government fraud. that should be on a separate blog as climate fraud IS NOT a conservative or liberal issue! I am discgusted the way these scamming nasa scientists work for a political profeteering group.
I think that it would be great to see an article that started with the phrase …
“If global warming was hypothesized today, it would be rejected for publication, because of vague, untestable argument, lack of empirical evidence, over reliance on computer models, exaggerated proxy data, manipulated ground station data, failure to match satellite data, and lack of support from physicists and historians.”
Board of review would remark, “All this for .01 degrees celsius?”
The hypothesizing scientist would be required to post the raw data and methodology publicly, not deny the last 18 years of data, ensure that their mathematical statistics are not skewed by Monte Carlo analysis, not extrapolate tidal changes beyond the accuracy range of satellites, understand the history of Earth temperature and gases for the last billion years, not create a cabal of other researchers who manipulate data to ensure grant funding, and not deny the existence of Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age.

On September 30, 1847, Congressman George Perkins Marsh delivered a speech on agricultural conditions in New England to the Agricultural Society of Rutland County, Vermont. This powerful address gave voice to ideas that would become a catalytic force in the movement to conserve America’s natural resources. Marsh recognized the human capacity for destruction of the environment and advocated better management of resources and active efforts toward restoration of the land–innovative ideas for the period.

But though man cannot at his pleasure command the rain and the sunshine, the wind and frost and snow, yet it is certain that climate itself has in many instances been gradually changed and ameliorated or deteriorated by human action.

Farmers, by their nature, are often the ultimate weathermen and climatologists. Water and temperature is not just theory. It is money and survival. The reality of our climate can be found in hard facts like plant zones. For over a hundred years, the citrus zone has been forced more and more to the south. “”Today, counties like Orange and Citrus host little commercial production of their namesake fruit.””

Great! So they spent a lot of money on a satellite to discover and map that volcanoes, swamps, and warm soil high in humus (high in bacteria, low in vegetation), emit CO2 intermittently. How awkward that their map does not match the official narrative (they were expecting to see CO2 hotspots around every city). Meanwhile, plants and the ocean are absorbing CO2 as fast as it is released. Around a 5 year cycle. The trace levels of global CO2 are actually stable, considering the history of CO2. Human contribution to CO2 is trivial: just 3.75% [15 ppm] of the already historically low level of 400 ppm for CO2. 97% of carbon dioxide molecules are natural, and not from humans. This means that 97% of the trivial increase in CO2 from 300 PPM to 400 PPM has been natural. The warmer the ecosphere, the more CO2 is released by bacteria. Not the other way around, of CO2 magically warming the ecosphere.

WE NEED MORE, NOT FEWER, BIG HURRICANES
[From various sections of The Mass Hypnotist]
BOOLE: Hurricane is a name applied to migratory tropical cyclones that originate over oceans in certain regions near the equator and particularly to those arising in the West Indies region, including the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico.
The tropics are defined as that area which lies between the Tropic of Cancer, 23.5 degrees north of the equator and the Tropic of Capricorn, 23.5 degrees south of the equator.
Most hurricanes originate within the doldrums, a narrow equatorial belt characterized by intermittent calms, light variable breezes, and frequent squalls, and lying between the northeast and southeast trade winds. As the doldrums of the Atlantic are situated largely to the north of the equator, hurricanes do not occur in the South Atlantic Ocean.
The Pacific doldrums extend north and south of the equator, thus hurricanes, or typhoons as they are known in the western Pacific, occur in the South and North Pacific oceans.
After a hurricane develops, a tremendous amount of energy is released. A moderate hurricane is capable of taking up from the ocean 15 million tons of water vapor a minute through the process of evaporation. The amount of energy released into the atmosphere by this transformation is the major driving force of the hurricane and what a driving force it is.
This transformation of such tremendous amounts of energy is why tropical cyclones are called “heat engines,” and when these engines “rev up” and produce winds of 74 miles per hour or more we call them hurricanes.
BOOLE: In addition, an “average” hurricane produces over 200 billion tons of rainwater each day, an amount equal to the average annual flow of the Colorado river!
Thus, hurricanes will refill the groundwater of inland aquifers at or above the water table.
Hurricanes also clean-out and refill stagnant (and polluted) lakes, rivers, ponds and inland waterways.
Hurricanes also clear-out dead ground vegetation, and the dead trees and plants, that liberals won’t allow to be cleared out of woods; and they also bring down rotting limbs in trees that humans cannot reach.
Hurricane storm surges also create, and clean-out, shoreline estuaries.
An “average” hurricane will release in 24 hours the energy equivalent to 500,000 Nagasaki-type atomic bombs or 400 20 Megaton hydrogen bombs (fusion) bombs.
This energy, if converted to electricity, would satisfy the electrical needs of the entire United States for more than six months.
A typical hurricane or tropical cyclone releases heat energy of about 50 to 200 exajoules a day. That’s equivalent to 70 times our worldwide energy consumption.
Hurricanes, and tropical cyclones, as important rainmakers, provide 25 percent or more of available rainfall to places like Japan, India, and Southeast Asia—not to mention Texas, which desperately needs a dousing yearly.
Hurricanes and tropical cyclones help maintain the global heat balance by moving warm tropical air away from the equator and towards the poles.
Without them, the tropics would get a lot hotter and the poles a lot colder.
Fragile barrier islands need hurricanes for their survival. Although hurricanes erode beaches on the ocean side of barrier islands, they build up the back sides of the same islands by depositing new sediments via winds and waves. This dynamical process keeps barrier islands alive.
Hurricanes and tropical cyclones stir up the ocean and drive the process of upwelling, thus playing a part in the thermohaline circulation—another important transport mechanism distributing heat between the equator and the poles and keeping the earth’s temperature in better balance
By stirring the ocean, hurricanes and tropical cyclones also cycle nutrients from the seafloor to the surface, boosting ocean productivity and setting the stage for blooms of marine life.
We need more, not fewer big hurricanes. And much less fraudulent hot-air emissions from climate-change Chicken Littles.

Interesting 1974 Hubert Lamb paper, ‘The Current Trend of World Climate – A Report on the Early 1970’s and a Perspective’ : http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/pubs/crurp/CRU_RP3.pdf
I think it would be a good addition to your 1970’s Global Cooling Scare section and good resource for ongoing articles.
Excerpts:
– “Much has been written in recent years about climatic change, the global cooling since 1945 which reversed the earlier upward trend of temperatures, and so on.”
– Fig. 1 shows a decrease in global mean surface air temp (5 yr running avg) of ~0.3-0.4C from 1945 to ~1970.
– “The cooling during the last twenty years has been greatest in the Arctic (just as the warming in the earlier decades of the twentieth century had been).”
– “some aspects of the climatic change that is going on emerge quite clearly. It is global in extent and is developing on a grand time-scale”
– “There seem to be similarities between the course of the climatic fluctuations that have taken place during the present century and those that occurred just 200 and 400 years earlier.”
– “In regard to the global cooling trend since the 1940s and concomitant phenomena, it may be important to observe that there appear to be common characteristics between this and most earlier global climatic cooling episodes.”
There is much similarity between the agricultural dangers of the cooling to those in the 1974 CIA report, suggesting that Lamb may have been one of those at the 1974 San Diego Conference.
Since Lamb is recognized as one of the most prominent climatologists ever, this decimates the climate alarmist historical revisionists’ claim that the 1970s global cooling scare was merely the popular media.
It’s also significant that the report is from the UEA Climate Research Unit, which became a center for the current global warming scare.
I archived the URL for the pdf on the webarchive Wayback Machine, just in case the historical revisionists might ‘disappear’ it. It was the first time it was archived. http://web.archive.org/web/20151112145742/http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/pubs/crurp/CRU_RP3.pdf
Keep up the good work Tony. Your publishing all the historical documentation is devastating to the climate alarmists’ position, and exposes that they are peddling propaganda, especially when they ‘disappear’ historical documents which expose their false claims.

Here is a story that has received very little media attention about a climate scientist being charged with fraud.
He worked on the impact of climate change on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. While supplying information on how we are threatening the Reef he was surreptitiously stealing hundreds of thousands over years – the total exceeds half a million that they can prove !
On 15 September 15, 2015 the Townsville Bulletin reported this :-
http://www.townsvillebulletin.com.au/news/climate-scientist-accused-of-employer-rort/story-fnjfzs4b-1227532573922
“As a scientist, Dr Alongi has been published in numerous journals, nationally and internationally.
His key research focuses have been the Great Barrier Reef, coastal mangroves, coastal ecosystems and the impact of climate change.”
Since being suspended on September 7 he has resigned on December 10.
The updated story featured in The Courier Mail on Saturday 9 January 2016.

Interesting, don’t recall that ever making the news back in 2016. Another MSM coverup. Funny how this guy seems to be protected and yet an honest Barrier Reef researcher and scientist from Townsville Uni (Peter Ridd) was fired and discredited.

Man made climate change in one simple picutre
I think you all figured out by now that politics and religion attracts a lot of reactions.
Here is my contribution for Easter (if you want to publish it?)
WHERE IS YOUR FAITH?
If God exists, why cannot we see Him? This is a question that is often heard and I think it is as relevant today as it was at anytime in the past. Without running into clichés, nor making any quotations from the bible, I have been trying to formulate an answer to this particular trying question.
First, we have to acknowledge that God is the Creator of all things. In a way, to compare, He is like the Artist, and we, and everything that lives, are the works of His hands. So the question posed is really very much similar as to asking an earthly artist, like, let us say, Picasso, why we cannot see him personally in his artwork. Indeed, we cannot actually see him in any of his works. However, we do “recognise” his paintings as (works of) “Picasso”. And so it is here. We are His work and we can see God in all that He made around us; e.g. for fish, God is like the sea and its contents, but the fish themselves are also made of water and the components from the sea. They are of God and in God. Likewise, we are from God and in God…
Second, using the same analogy of a human artist, the best a painter-artist can do, to show him, would be to paint himself, and show to the world on canvas what he looks like. This is how we know today what Rembrandt looked like. Funny you should ask. This is exactly what God did. He did come to earth as one of us and lived a life showing us what our Creator is like. Indeed, His love for us can be compared with the love of an earthly parent for his child. Despite our mistakes, His love for us is unconditional. Unreasonably so, it seems. Should we have lived during His time here on earth, I am sure many of us would have been exactly like one of His disciples: e.g. not being prepared to do any of the dirty jobs (wash feet), dropping your friend when they were at their worst time in need on earth (Simon Peter & others), and not having any faith whatsoever when it really mattered (Thomas & others). In the end, He was condemned to die by crucifixion, suffering the worst kind of pain anyone of us could possibly endure….
Lastly, incredibly so, it seems, seeing as that we are talking about “pictures” and “seeing God”, it appears He did decide to leave us with an actual image of Himself. Somehow, He reckoned that we needed to have this. Here you can examine Him. http://www.shroud.com/examine.htm
The Shroud of Turin is a centuries old linen cloth that bears the image of a crucified man. Is it really the cloth that wrapped His crucified body, or is it simply a medieval forgery, a hoax perpetrated by some clever artist? Modern science has completed hundreds of thousands of hours of detailed study and intense research on the Shroud. It is, in fact, the single most studied artefact in human history, and we know more about it today than we ever have before. And yet, the controversy still rages on. People from all walks of life have devoted their time and efforts to researching, investigating, experimenting on – and writing about – the Shroud of Turin. http://www.shroud.com/reflections.htm To summarise, the cloth bears the photographic image as a NEGATIVE, in THREE dimensions, of a CRUCIFIED man, clearly, very much beaten on his back, with head wounds (remember the thorn crown?), and other wounds specific only to Roman crucifixion (remember the wound in His side?). Blood- and DNA analysis showed that this must have been from a REAL life person.
As far as I can remember back to 1978, Dr. Max Frei, before his passing, recognised some pollen on the Shroud that are specific to plants that grow exclusively in Palestine e.g. see also here: http://www.shroud.com/danin2.htm
Many forensic experts, who analysed the Shroud’s (positive) pictures (back and front), concluded that this must have been the person named as Jesus of Nazareth in the bible, after (all) the applications of the Roman punishments and crucifixion exactly as described concerning Him, including the very number of lashings on His back and the wound in His side. For example, (and this is just ONE example), there are no thumbs visible on the Shroud. The way Romans crucified criminals, was by hammering big nails through the wrists, near to the hands, onto the wooden cross. Consequently, because of this, the thumbs would fall numb, behind the other fingers. These types of forensic details have led most of the experts that looked at all the scientific evidence coming from the Shroud’s investigations of having subsequently to become believers.
Yet, contrary to all expectations, carbon dating in 1988 by various laboratories showed the cloth is from the 13th or 14th century… exactly around the same time when it was displayed in Europe for the first time in history. Despite this, many researchers seem to disagree with the measurements, e.g. see here
http://www.shroud.com/pdfs/rogers2.pdf
To quote from the conclusion from the above (very lengthy!) report,
“Linen-production technology indicates that the Shroud of Turin is probably older than indicated by the date obtained in 1988. There seems to be ample evidence that an anomalous area was sampled for the radiocarbon analysis; therefore, the reported age is almost certainly invalid for the date the cloth was produced. The image was definitely not painted. The observed characteristics of the image rule out any mechanism for colour formation that involves high temperatures or energetic, penetrating radiation…..” etc
We know from the account in the Gospel of John that there is talk of some 75 or 100 pounds of spices being used, a mixture of myrrh and aloes, to embalm the corpse. That sounds like an extraordinary large amount. Together with the humidity in the tomb, to me, everything seemed set for some as yet unknown chemical or physical reaction. I wonder if anyone ever did some testing with those two chemicals.
Personally, after evaluating a lot of the evidence, it is my honest opinion that the Shroud is genuine and that it does bear the image of Jesus Christ. I think it is impossible that the image could have been a painted forgery, much less a medieval one. If it really were a fake, it would have required a real crucifixion to have taken place, orchestrated in exactly the way as Jesus died, with all its particular sordid details, including, amongst other things, the use of Roman whips, a thorn crown, etc. All of this would then have to be recorded in some specifically ingenious way, just so as to get all the specific forensic details correct and to achieve a photographic negative image with the particular 3 dimensional properties exactly as depicted on the Shroud of Turin. This is just statistically impossible.
Anyway, either way, in fact, we do know that a burial cloth from Jesus did exist in 0 AD. The Scriptures tell us the cloth was there, in the empty tomb, neatly folded up. I think there is a message in that too. But even if the Shroud of Turin were dated exactly back to 0 AD, where would that leave us?
In fact, that places all of us at exactly the same point in history as where the disciples were when they arrived at the empty tomb. There was only one disciple who saw the empty tomb with the cloth neatly folded up, who immediately “believed”. He just knew. The rest of them remained sceptical, probably like you and me would have been, thinking that somebody must have stolen the body. Only when they had seen His appearance did their doubt fade … Doubt seems to be a good beginning….
God’s love (energy) is so big you cannot get over it and you cannot get around of it. You have to come in at the Door. Jesus is the Door. He is standing with His arms open wide, there, just like a real Father, worried about where you were. Faith is the key that you need.
Perhaps I have interested you to do some research so as to see what your heavenly Father (Jesus) is like.
Steven, a friend of mine who is a climate alarmist is referring to this link that claims there was no warming hiatus after all. Do you have any insight on this? Or anyone else on here, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Tony, you should save this quote, and link…
Florence Fetterer, principal investigator at the National Snow and Ice Data Center, described the data reconstruction process in a guest post at Carbon Brief…
…as Fetterer explains, gaps remained in their records, which have now been filled into the NSIDC dataset using a variety of sources:
The sea ice edge positions in the North Atlantic, between 1850 and 1978, derived from various sources, including newspapers, ship observations, aircraft observations, diaries and more.
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2016/aug/22/historical-documents-reveal-arctic-sea-ice-is-disappearing-at-record-speed
So the next time one of our favorite trolls howls about your newspaper articles, explain that they are part of NSIDC’s scientific method of Arctic ice reconstructions.
I would like to inquire about employement. Im a sciencetist. Degree in Studies.

Bring your message to a larger audience. Maybe try to get interviewed by a conservative show host, and focus on data tampering. American Thought Leaders at Epoch Times? Or one of their other hosts.
The CIA or Finders Cult Headquartered in Virginia has been exposed! The Finders Cult, also known as the CIA, has been running a string of sex abuse, mind control, and murder operations in SoCal done by remotely sending satellite WiFi like signals that make people think they are having their own thoughts (not their own), hearing voices as internal dialog (not their own), losing a train of though, or euphoric bliss (presumably activating the dopamine pleasure centers in the brain). Now if it was all this was it would not sound so nefarious, but it gets more complicated and dark, fast. The CIA is run by main head leaders who can beam satellite signals to their entire headquarters to brainwash them at the same time. They are being groomed to have at least 3 negative mental frameworks: abnormal sexuality, deception, and murder. Oftentimes, combining the latter in morbid was, for instance satellite-based thought beaming for grooming purposes of their cia team (women and men equally) to not only perform sexual favors for their male main heads, or amongst each other in wild orgies, but also, morbidly enough, sexual encounters with the deceased. I have been a victim of their operations of sex slave programming attempts and assassination attempts. In fact the city where I live has been a target for their sex abuse and murder operations, specifically a place here known as the Pico Rivera Sports Arena. Here there are young adults predominantly of Mexican decent and the Virginia CIA operatives stuck out like a sore thumb being predominantly Caucasian or Asian. There have been rumors and stories of people disappearing or bodies being found dead in Pico Rivera. They think they have been spying on my to make me a sex slave and murder me and make me a sex slave all over again as they’d like but I have been spying on them. They often leak out intelligence to me, key details I need to expose their main leaders, who too, abuse them! This is why they are called Finders Cult. Not only that, GOD ALMIGHTY is on my side protecting us. He sends me dreams and visions, things for me to come to the realization that fact is stranger than fiction. Pico Rivera police department has been alerted of their activities and just yesterday night booming gunshots were heard repeatedly an a pause spurt pause spurt manner and they were reportedly CIA operations nearby, to no surprise they were coming from the place their leaders have wanted to make their unwitting playground for sex abuse and murder- the Pico Rivera Sports Arena. A helicopter was rapidly dispatched and circled the place looking for suspects and answers. Were these gunshots really proof of CIA presence in SoCal? Were people caught? I believe it’s very likely and you won’t want to miss the news did they really use satellites to seduce and kill people? These satellites can even be used to induce heart palpations and cancer or heart attack over time. The CIA’s crime syndicate has been exposed and made vulnerable through operations which the Pico Rivera Police Department is well aware of, you should contact them now even if you’re a little curious at this point or later today
George Bush Jr is likely a main head Barrack Obama is likely a main head John Brenan is likely a main head. Some or all main heads are highly suspected to be in Pico Rivera with team. Have you checked flights? Including non-commercial flights for higher ranking team or leaders? They are in SoCal committing crimes here. Given that the recent gunshots are always from the east of me towards sports arena. I suspect they chose to rent out/Airbnb over there.
They’ve expanded operations to a Hospital in Whittier California known as PIH Whittier. Contact the Whitter police department for more information!

I suspect the tate brothers are still CIA puppets, working for their leaders in human trafficking in Europe, to some extent U.S. too, but there’s a load of people in their CIA team doing the same kind of things until their lead team is disbanded from their seams as I’ve seen in visions they will be disbanded. This means they have to be arrested, most likely. I am done being a victim of their attempts at my life (poisoning) and their sexual abuse of me done by past break-ins by making me unconscious so its unconsentual and attempts at grooming me into conscious sexual submission to phallus. The CIA is not 007 James Bond it’s dishonorable its human trafficking, their lead team is wicked for promoting and propagating this in their operatives and their unwitting victims around the world. Team up with a team that transcends Whittier to hold accountable whoever is at the top of this, whoever they are Bush Obama Brenan (John) and/or others they aren’t larger than life or larger than GOD they are probably at the same level as felonious Trump.
The Island Boys are famous for rap music and social media. They recently came out kissing each other in photos. The twins have ties since childhood to notorious child trafficker Jeffery Epstein, who was killed by CIA to protect CIA leaders. There are photos of him and the twins when they were only children online. What island were they naming themselves after? The “Virgin Island” run from Virginia Headquarters by CIA’s leader team.
Burns is a CIA human trafficker but he isn’t the only one. John Brenan Barack Obama George Bush Jr are amongst others in the CIA Virginia headquarters grooming and sexually abusing eagles and public
Contact Whitter Police Department to figure out how CIA operatives are being sent out to expand their human trafficking operations to California from Virginia and ask them about what they know about the CIA in Whitter, California. Break in the headquarters metaphorically by exposure which gets their leaders arrested or detained for sending out these human trafficking operations just like they have been sent to break houses and hospitals and business in California and across the United States and globe.
Trump was involved. He was figured out. He was exposed. Now look at all his felonies brought against him.
Sent to my professor, forwarded to you:
Hello Professor,
I am beginning to realize that you’re right this class is too high paced and I’ve missed plenty of classes already. I too am having nightmares about past presidents and past cia directors who are heavily involved in criminal enterprises such as drug trafficking, human trafficking, population control, new world order, and other satanic agendas who are stalking me because they became aware of my existence somehow maybe through an ex relationship I had with someone who they were trafficking for sex. There’s wickedness in high places out there now I fear they are commanding a team to poison my house’s water supply, break in and poison my food supply, etc… because of my dreams and visions from the supernatural realm about their crimes against humanity and their fear of impending exposure to the mass public. For instance, I’ve had nightmares that it’s John Brenan, George Bush, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton. And I’ve seen people following me in what seems to be prosthetic costumes and masks that look like them for instance John Brenan. Like something Orwellian or Huxleyan from 1984 or Brave New World. I firmly believed satan has influenced those authors to conjure up those novels/books through their drug use, like a prophecy that’s anti-biblical anti-harmonious for society and anti-God, simply satanic. Furthermore, powerful people in government who are retired get left with power, fame, and time on their hands to invest or spend however but they turn to drugs and satanic influence instead of God, they want to be God’s and indulge in drugs and wickedness. They may look like decent human Christians to me but truth seems like they have been satanic puppets/puppet masters too all along. I pray they will become Christians. ? then they fulfill the prophecies written by Huxley or Orwell, like following satan’s commands and commanding a team via satellite mostly covertly to follow their commands. These folks are most likely gamers playing the game of spying on humans and commanding humans by satellite ? from the comfort of their own office or home! But so far their leader hasn’t been Jesus Christ which leads to a morally devoid command chain. Hence, trafficking humans or drugs or other crimes seems defined by them as necessary and right for most likely deceptively crafted reasons by satan. It’s been a full time job being like Job and protecting my house from break ins and stuff like that to avoid further deterioration of health with God’s help and my cooperation too. I have attached photos of what I mean when I say prosthetic masks being used by people like previous cia director John Brenan are following me by satellite and on foot and they have a wicked heart unless they change by God’s grace. All this to say, I will be dropping the class professor. I’m sorry not to learn this quarter but I’m excited to learn in Spring 2024. Thank you for understanding. I really hope all things will work out according to God’s will. I’ll be in prayer.

In my nightmare, someone like Bill Clinton was confronted by police and questioned about the death of someone like William Burns because Burns had a tattoo of Bill Clinton on his navel. It turns out that Bill had sexually groomed Will Burns and has been grooming, sexually exploiting, men, women, children. Presumptively, through the use of government satellite systems to mind control people like Epstein and victims.

In my other nightmare, another John, not Brenan this time, was described, in this vision of a dream, by Wikipedia as being a master puppet main head and a leader in an organizational cult that has a front to the white house. They’re involved in sex trafficking in my town and have been getting many latino youth, young adults, and adults involved, wanting to include me, but I have and will resist this wicked attempt to formally corrupt my soul. I am not sinless but I refuse to be a satanic puppet, vehemently. This John is likely an older John.
Once Trump is indicted and convicted, ask him to elaborate who is “the deep state” and what exactly they do or have done that is so outlawed and wicked. Don’t simply ask him, depose him, because he will know exactly what is going on and has been going on with politics and “the deep state” he was once a part of. He will have nothing to lose but an attempt to avenge himself by confessing who and what they were/have been/are involved in. Hopefully, they change for the better but their past is real nonetheless. It’s usually the leadership, the top, the main heads that call the shots in criminality and morbid wickedness that is widespread amongst lower ranks. They, the top, must be held accountable for weak systems of accountability which they strongly have abused and profited from at the expense of all and all decency. In turn, accountability systems must be in place, none of this secrecy and deception bologna. It’s just simply not necessary but leads to a fertile ground for satanic agenda initiatives since he is the father of deception and being low-key till the point of getting others to believe he is fake. It’s what makes this country weak, secrecy and deception. Imagine that satan sees this and says here is Achilles heel in government, I’ll mass possess them. The rest of government, they’ll be too uninformed to help. What a schizophrenic government, meaning split-minded government! And uninformed it has been for too long, heck a minute of uninformed parties is too long for that’s enough time to kill, rape, or hurt another person or group of people with a decision made in criminal secrecy. ??? I’m not joking when I scream this out loud satan is real! And he is infiltrated within government factions! The CIA has fallen! Fallen what? Victim to satan! They don’t kill terrorists, they perform human sacrifice to satan, framing anyone covertly, killing anyone covertly, raping people covertly, it’s like they are tasked to persecute real satanic ppl n follow in their steps
Our 92 year old neighbor approached my father while he was outside in the yard. He told him that he is selling his house for $490,000 and that he will be moving within 6 months if all goes according to plan. He invited us for a house tour. It was within the house tour that he showed us his dried up trees and plants. He explained explicitly that he takes good care of his vegetation but he has noticed an exponential growth of the appearance of “chemical trails” launched on airplane. This has been a topic of discussion within my family as well since I’ve seen them flying low and even drone like aircrafts flying low with sprinkler like systems emitting chemicals from left and right with radii as wide as to seem like they are emitting chemicals from 360 degrees. This is what they are doing to our town in SoCal: killing our plants and killing our people just like a concentration camp these wicked and morbid main heads, ordering eagles to do their bidding, like the mafia. Ask plant owners in Pico Rivera California and perhaps even Whitter California if not more towns and cities nearby. Please start by asking Pico Rivera residents first because I am just becoming aware of this happening here. I can’t think right as if I am being poisoned to death with my fellow Californians slowly enough to breath a few more breaths. These are wicked people, you can stop them, only you with God’s help.
Plants that were very green last month in neighborhood are now drying up “mysteriously” after many frequent times chemicals were seen being ejected from drones and planes on South Western U.S.A Pico Rivera area. CIA main leaders are responsible but never accountable how unfair! Contact California’s governor and California lawyers and prosecutors and California law enforcement and Detectives and Investigators on this case with a concerned memo with all the info they need to take action against these unduly rulers.
What a change in less than a month. This is the first time this has been abnormal for our city’s plants.

Tai Lopez and Hugh Heffner have CIA ties. Essentially being CIA puppets. Investigate Tai who frequented the playboy mansion, a place for CIA debauchery. Here’s a link of Tai being at the party like a good CIA boyscout.

He has “connections” with “billionaires” and CIA, growing up in Virginia. The CIA headquarters is in Virginia. Moving to Hollywood, Beverly Hills, then Puerto Rico, amongst other places worldwide ?, to spread a “prosperity mindset” and end disdain for satanic illuminati who runs the CIA through it’s illusive black or dark budget. It’s not a democratic organization as a result it’s a (satanic) private (satanic) workforce for the satanic rich. They’ve been made into puppets of puppets of puppets of puppets of satan. Investigate Tai and his billionaire connections along with the CIA (satanic to the 6th power). I will be praying for you in Jesus Mighty and Holy Name, In YHWH’s and Holy Spirit’s Holy Name! There’s power in their Names! Thank God for their will being done through all of us humans of faith, wisdom, and courage!
Quite a post.
The climate derangement continues.
this guy, Mike Smith, cuts down a tree badly in Auckland and now calls himself an activist.
I wonder which “experts” will be brought to bear. A real laugh will be M Mann….

I have subscribed to your RSS feed https://realclimatescience.com/rss/ for quite a long time but it quit updating in Nov. of last year.
I then tried https://realclimatescience.com/feed/ which after looking at its webpage appears to be updated with the latest posts. But when I tried using it in my feed reader I got the error message below. Perhaps you can look into this and get it corrected. Thanks.
HungryFEED can’t get feed. Don’t be mad at HungryFEED. SimplePie reported: cURL error 22: The requested URL returned error: 403
Tony, we need to find a way to make sure your amazing database becomes reliably available indefinitely and doesn’t disappear for some reason.
Hi Tony, I’m a big fan, thank you for all you do. More drivel Down Under, hope you have a future retort in the works.

Hi Tony,
Thought you might like to debunk this nonsense.
All the best,

I’m often confused by what you are trying to say. you repeat the incorrect information by people who promote global warming, yet you don’t provide any information about why it’s wrong. why don’t you actually write a paragraph or two?
Do not post
Tony, please contact me directly by email.
I have a suggestion.
Thanks
