I mentioned California governor Jerry Brown’s silliness regarding Ted Cruz and “climate change” yesterday. Cruz fired back
(Think Progress) Responding to California Gov. Jerry Brown’s (D) remarks on Meet the Press on Sunday that Cruz was “absolutely unfit†to run for office because of his “direct falsification of the existing scientific data†on climate change, Cruz said Sunday that “global warming alarmists†like Brown “ridicule and insult anyone who actually looks at the real data.â€
Speaking on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Sunday, Cruz said that Brown and other proponents of action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change engage in “ad hominem attacks†and “don’t want to confront the data†on climate change. Cruz said that satellites are showing that warming isn’t happening, even though “apocalyptic computer models said that we would see substantial warming.â€
Sadly, Ted missed a salient point: the people, especially the leaders, in the Cult Of Climastrology are massive hypocrites within their own lives. Of course, TP deflects Ted’s point about the satellite data
About 90 percent of the warming over the last 17 years has occurred in the oceans, the impacts of which will start to be felt more acutely in the near future. Greenland’s ice melt has increased five-fold since the mid-1990s. Another recent study found that sea level is rising 60 percent faster than projected.
We’re back to “the oceans ate my warming”.
Rafi Cruz is wrong on global warming. He was educated at the finest universities in the world, yet did not learn basic science? I doubt it. He’s demagogue-ing his base. An idiot like Senator Inhofe probably doesn’t understand, but Cruz is different, and hence, more dangerous.
Cruz’s response was to whine about climate realists calling him names. Waah! Waah! They “ridicule and insult” and make “ad hominem attacks”! “Waah! Mom! The cool kids a calling me names, just like in high school! I’ll show ’em.”
Rafi. Read up: There is incontrovertible evidence that the Earth is warming. The satellite radiation readings that RSS models into an apparent “temperature” show little warming since 2000. The satellite radiation readings that UAH (“skeptics” Roy Spencer and John Christy) model into an apparent “temperature” show significantly more warming. The only thermometer readings available (GISS, BEST, HadCrut, NOAA… see data below) agree with UAH.
RSS shows a warming trend of 0.122C/decade since it started in 1979. Since 2008, according even to RSS, the Earth has warmed 0.2C!!! (See, even realists can cherrypick data).
Since 1979 (when satellite readings began), here’s what the datasets show (in degrees C/decade)
RSS……….0.122 (satellite)
UAH……….0.138 (satellite)
Gistemp……0.157 thermometer
NOAA………0.148 thermometer
HadCrut……0.157 thermometer
Berkeley…..0.164 thermometer
Rafi, you have to go out of your way to construct a case where warming stopped. And you purposefully ignore ocean temperatures, melting sea ice and ice sheets and sea level.
You can’t be as dumb as you act.
Little Jeffy thinks Ted Cruz reads his amusing comments.
dp,
What’s it say when the head teabagger has to force teenagers to hear his announcement and hasn’t a clue about climate science?
Little Jeffy
“Cruz’s response was to whine about climate realists calling him names.” Astrologers prior response was to whine about Cruz telling the truth. Waah Waah! Sorry, there is no “incontrovertible evidence the earth is warming. And there is even less evidence that the alleged warming is caused by human induced CO2. “The ” ” data set shows ” ” per decade warming.” Which even if true doesn’t mean a thing, as climate changes are rarely linear. Tell me, what kind of “incontrovertible evidence” gets bloggers banned on Twitter, astrologers afraid to debate realists, and college professors speaking the truth to get viciously attacked in the media?
LOL at Jeffy’s “since 1979…”.
Since 1979, when the planet was in a cold cycle and alarmist scientists were warning of the coming of an ice age. 1979-80 is always the start year of a dishonest debate.
There has been no warming since the 1996 (cold) La Nina year until present. There has been no warming since 1940. There has been warming since the 1750 and the Little Ice Age.
False. Do you think the data are fake? Are you ignoring evidence or denying that it exists? If you don’t recognize that it’s warming than you are as bad as Rafi Cruz.
Since you deny that it’s warming you’re saying there is less than no evidence that CO2 is causing the warming you deny.
Word salad. How else do you measure warming? LOL
I present evidence. You deny.
Gland,
You’re ignorant of the fact that 1979 was the first year the satellites were online, therefore it would be quite difficult to use satellite data from earlier.
Either you are woefully ignorant or a liar. Which is it? Please show your work.
Even using your cherrypicked 1940 start date.
From 1940 until today (degree C/decade):
Gistemp……..0.1 (or 0.7 total)
NOAA………..0.1 (0.7)
Hadcrut……..0.08 (0.6)
BEST………..0.09 (0.6)
From 1996 until today:
Gistemp……..0.11
NOAA………..0.09
Hadcrut……..0.10
BEST………..0.13
UAH…………0.12
So why do the denialists choose only to quote the RSS calculated value? LOL
What data are you using to support your false statements? There are Temperature Trend Calculators you can use to check this yourself.
no one was forced to listen to Ted Cruz unlike the child abusers who force their hate and abuse on all via the heavy hand of government
dessert,
It’s hard to force someone to listen, but the students were forced to attend his talk.
Who are these child abusers you keep talking about? What are you doing to stop them? If it’s really child abuse shouldn’t you be doing more than whining on a RWNJ blog?
Wow, little jeffy getting excited over a tenth of a degree.
wow, little puppy’s girlfriend looks just like his mom.
wow, little puppy, your mom calls me big jeffy.
wow, little puppy understands even less than Rafi Cruz.
wow, little puppy flunked grade school math.
wow, little puppy was rejected by Liberty U.
wow, little puppy likes it doggy style.
Seriously, DP, do you understand that a tenth of a degree/ decade over 10 decades is 1 degree? You’ll be dead and forgotten (and puppies will finally be able to relax) and the Earth will still be warming. Of course you don’t. You didn’t even go to grade school, did you? You probably think Rafi Cruz is smart. He is, just not in the way you think.
wow, little puppy’s girlfriend calls him getting excited, pitching a “pup tent”
Gland,
1979. When the touted satellite data came online.
You lose. Apology accepted.
There weren’t many scientific climate papers published in the 70s but most still warned about warming, not cooling. To sell magazines, some in the lay press made the mistake of sensationalizing cooling. You lose.
You can’t possibly believe the nonsense you type about global warming. You should stick to your ‘quality’ research on girlie pictures.
So, let’s see: it’s cherry picking to start from today to show a trend, but not cherry picking to go back in time to show a specific time frame. Warmist world.
No one is saying there hasn’t been warming: there has. It is causation that is up for debate. If it is strictly due to CO2 from mankind, then there would be no pause
“I present evidence, you deny.” What evidence? Certainly not the land based temperature record, in which the sensors only cover about half the earth, and more than half the surface data is fake. The satellite data covers much more of the earth’s surface. Goddard said it the best: “global warming was supposed to be about the troposphere. Why would you measure it in Urban Heat Islands, rather than by satellites in the troposphere?” Why do astrologers only use the corrupted land based measurements?Lol.
Wow, touched a nerve there huh, little jeffy?
Guess you showed me.
Back to your sandbox, little one.
Deniers deny there is warming when it suits them. Rafi Cruz claimed it was warming the other day.
I’ve explained the variables that contribute to the global average surface temperature so many times that it’s clear you refuse to understand. So, no, variability in the global average surface temperature does not falsify the theory of AGW.
just showed how trivial you are, baby bitch..
