Oops: NASA Finds Earth’s Deep Oceans Not Warming

How will Warmists spin this? Head in the sand? Say it means nothing? Say the science is settled? Deflect to the military supposedly believing? Throw out a few slurs? NASA Study Finds Earth’s Ocean Abyss Has Not Warmed The cold waters of Earth’s deep ocean have not warmed measurably since 2005, according to a new […]

When Can A Big Storm Or Drought Be Blamed On Climate Change?

That’s the question NPR delves into. Unsurprisingly, the answer seems to be “always” and “whenever it’s convenient” (NPR) Nowadays, when there’s a killer heat wave or serious drought somewhere, people wonder: Is this climate change at work? It’s a question scientists have struggled with for years. And now there’s a new field of research that’s […]

Bummer: Pause At 18 Years 1 Month

What excuses will Warmists trot out? Because we know there is no possible way they will accept the data, conclusions, or anything that dissuades them from their fanatical devotion to the Cult. Here’s Christopher Monkton bringing the reality (also at Watts Up With That?) (Climate Depot) The RSS monthly satellite global temperature anomaly for September […]

Study: U.S. West Coast Warming Mostly Natural

Let’s reiterate that the debate is primarily about causation: Warmists say it is mostly/solely caused by Mankind, especially our use of fossil fuels (which Warmists mostly refuse to give up themselves). Skeptics say the warming during the Modern Warm Period is mostly/solely natural. At that point we can get into the debate about Man’s contributions, […]

NC Sea Rise Is Under 7 Inches Per Century

Per a new paper (The Hockey Schtick) A new paper published in Quaternary Research reconstructs sea level rise in North Carolina over the past 1000 years and finds sea level rise since 1845 has been only 1.71 mm/year, equivalent to 6.7 inches per century and in line with many other papers finding global sea level […]

Bummer: Nature Refuses To Cooperate With Dryer/Wetter Warmist Prognostication

Darned nature, just doing it’s own thing Rules of thumb for climate change turned upside down With a new analysis of land regions, ETH climate researcher are challenging the general climate change paradigm that dry regions are getting drier and wet regions are getting wetter. In some regions they are encountering divergent trends. Based on […]

Pause Excuse #52: Natural Variability Stronger Than AGW

Seriously, it’s hard to keep up with all the excuses. Here comes another, via Watts Up With That? Earlier we added this to the list, now here is the description of the excuse. Basically what they are saying is that natural climate variability has overtaken the posited powerful effects of CO2 on climate. From the EU’s JOINT […]

Oops: First Species Wiped Out By Climate Change Lives

Another Warmist meme bites the dust Once plentiful on a tiny coral atoll in the Indian Ocean, the Aldabra banded snail (Rachistia aldabrae) was declared extinct in 1997 as one of the world’s first recorded direct casualties of climate change. But last month, a monitoring team found a population on one of the atoll’s islands, […]

Darn it: Greenhouse gas levels in atmosphere hit new high and temps still refuse to rise

Bummer (Yahoo News) Surging levels of carbon dioxide sent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to a new record in 2013, while oceans, which absorb the emissions, have become more acidic than ever, the UN said on Tuesday. “We know without any doubt that our climate is changing and our weather is becoming more extreme due […]

Bummer: Fire Season Refuses To Cooperate With Warmist Prognostication

Seriously, nothing is going their way. No statistically significant warming for almost 18 years. Land, sea, and air data (non-modified) refuse to cooperate. Hurricane activity refuses to cooperate. Sea rise refuses to cooperate. The Arctic refuses to be ice free. And now (Washington Times) This year’s below-average wildfire season comes as welcome news for Westerners, […]
