Pause Now At 17 Years 11 Months

Here’s Lord Monckton posting at Watts Up With That? The Great Pause has now persisted for 17 years 11 months. Indeed, to three decimal places on a per-decade basis, there has been no global warming for 18 full years. Professor Ross McKitrick, however, has upped the ante with a new statistical paper to say there […]

UN Looks In Crystal Ball, Creates Weather Forecasts For 2015

Of course, these are all about doomsaying regarding “climate change” (CNS News) In a fresh effort to generate fervor for a far-reaching new global climate agreement, a U.N. agency is releasing videos featuring “imaginary but realistic” weather reports set in 2050, to illustrate the type of extreme conditions it predicts we will face by mid-century. […]

World Will Warm Faster Than Ever Over The Next Five Year

Doom? Here’s Duncan Clark at the UK Guardian, a paper never known for reasonable discourse when it comes to “climate change” World will warm faster than predicted in next five years, study warns New estimate based on the forthcoming upturn in solar activity and El Niño southern oscillation cycles is expected to silence global warming […]

Shocking! The Sun Might Actually Have An Influence On Climate Change

This is sure to schock some people. How can this possibly be? (Science World) It turns out the sun’s activity may just influence natural climate change. For the first time, scientists have reconstructed the solar activity at the end of the last ice age, around 10,000 to 10,000 years ago, learning a bit more about […]

Stupid Plants Act Unexpectedly To Hotcoldwetdry

Stupid plants (Science mag) Not all species flee rising temperatures. As the mercury has inched upward across western North America over the last 40 years, many plant species have moved downhill, toward—not away from—warmer climates, according to the results of a new study. The finding adds to growing evidence that temperature isn’t the only factor […]

Physicians Say New EPA Rules Target The Poor

Oh, come on, this shouldn’t matter, cause we’re trying to save the earth!!!!!! Physicians For Civil Defense – New Climate Rules Unfairly Target The Poor Last week’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hearings in Atlanta on rules intended to “dramatically cut emissions” from coal-fired electricity generating stations were as contentious as expected. The new rules are […]

Is The List Of Warming Excuses Actually 29?

I have it set at 14. The Hockey Schtick says it’s 29 1) Low solar activity  2) Oceans ate the global warming [debunked] [debunked] [debunked] 3) Chinese coal use [debunked] 4) Montreal Protocol  5) What ‘pause’? [debunked] [debunked] [debunked] [debunked] 6) Volcanic aerosols [debunked] 7) Stratospheric Water Vapor  8) Faster Pacific trade winds [debunked] 9) Stadium Waves 10) ‘Coincidence!’ 11) Pine aerosols 12) […]

Excuse 14: Negative Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation phase

I’m running out of space for the graphic, going to have to increase its size (The Hockey Schtick) Matthew “say anything” England is back with a new paper which offers yet another excuse for the 17+ year pause in global warming: the negative phase of the natural Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation (IPO)  [excuse #14 by my count]. The […]

What’s The Real Climate Change Consensus?

Christopher Monckton writes During my valedictorian keynote at the conference, I appointed the lovely Diane Bast as my independent adjudicatrix. She read out six successive questions to the audience, one by one. I invited anyone who would answer “No” to that question to raise a hand. According to the adjudicatrix, not a single hand was […]

Pause Hits 17 Years, 10 Months

I know, I know, Warmists will deny the actual data, because their computer models and overwrought rhetoric are more important Via Climate Depot, here’s Christopher Monckton Taking the least-squares linear-regression trend on Remote Sensing Systems’ satellite-based monthly global mean lower-troposphere temperature dataset, there has been no global warming – none at all – for 17 […]
