AGW Today: It’s All About The Exaggeration And Bad Wishes

Last week, Conor Clarke at The Atlantic had an interview with Nobel Prize-winning economist Thomas Schelling, and look at what Schelling said regarding the anthropogenic global warming movement (via Tom Nelson)

…And what I don’t know is whether Americans are really willing to understand that and do anything for the benefit of the unborn Chinese.

It’s a tough sell. And probably you have to find ways to exaggerate the threat. And you can in fact find ways to make the threat serious.

But I tend to be rather pessimistic. I sometimes wish that we could have, over the next five or ten years, a lot of horrid things happening — you know, like tornadoes in the Midwest and so forth — that would get people very concerned about climate change. But I don’t think that’s going to happen.

Surprise!

Meanwhile, the Sun is back to being really quiet, and Hillary is now in Obama mode, apologizing to India for global warming.

    Teach id the Sun is being really quiet and dim why are the temps still above normal ? Oh and Teach the warmest year on record was not 1998 as you often state. The warmest year on record was in 2005. * of the 10 warmest years on record have occured since 2001, this is according to the stats done by the US government under Bush. http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/2008/ann/global.html#gtemp
    You keep saying that the temps are dropping since 1998, but they are not.

    Teach, resist and you will be banished by the left. No amount of rational thought is allowed, so succumb now. Let’s just admit there’s man made global warming, and become monks. It’s what they want for Americans, a fairly complete return to spartan days, and it’s starting to sound good to me. I mean, we’d make our own pretzels, wine and beer for that matter. We can stop buying fashionable clothes and just wear old rags and robes. And Birkenstocks of course. I dunno, getting ready for work would be a snap. Oh, wait, I would need a horse, no more driving a car. One that doesn’t expel gas of course. Maybe a hybrid horse?
    Listen, I would stay on here, but I’ve got a lot of changes to make in my life now, and it’s going to be so much fun. I can’t wait to load my stupid old electric appliances into a truck and dump then somehwere in a landfill…along with the truck they rode in on.
