Does this have meaning over the long term? Maybe. Maybe not (No Tricks Zone) Climate scientists on both sides of the debate agree on one thing: the earth’s surface and atmosphere have (unexpectedly) stopped warming; there’s been no temperature increase in over 17 years and counting. While global warming scientists insist the pause is only temporary […]

Look! Science! (via The Hockey Schtick) Huge ‘whirlpools’ in the ocean are driving the weather 11:08 27 June 2014 by Michael Slezak New Scientist Giant “whirlpools” in the ocean, up to 500 kilometres across, are driving the world’s climate on a scale previously unimagined. We just don’t know exactly how yet. The bodies of swirling […]

No, seriously, you guys, because they haven’t been attempting to communicate for over 25 years on the subject Improved communication between experts and the public key in winning battle to curb climate change, claims expert Scientists need to become more humble and to completely re-think the way they communicate if the battle to curb climate […]

And says it’s “not so unusual” (The Hockey Schtick) Shaun Lovejoy has published a new paper which cites his prior claim of 99.9% confidence that one of the two temperature graphs below is your fault, and the other due to natural variability. (snip-check the graphs at the link) In Lovejoy’s new paper, he acknowledges a […]

Does it involve providing actual scientific evidence rather than hysterical talking points and failed computer models? Of course not (The Wire) On Wednesday, four former Republican Environmental Protection Agency administrators testified before Congress in an attempt to convince current Congressional Republicans on the threat of climate change. On last night’s episode of The Daily Show, […]

Hot on the heals of excuse #12, “lousy data“, Warmists trot out excuse #13 (The Hockey Schtick) A paper published today in Environmental Research Letters finds a new excuse [#13 by my count] for the 15+ year ‘pause’ or ‘hiatus’ of global warming: “a coherent cooling pattern across the Northern Hemisphere mid-latitudes that has emerged […]

Will any Warmists back their predictions with cold, hard cash? Doubtful. Here’s David South, emeritus professor, School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences, Auburn University (via Marc Morano) (IBD) Sometimes I can’t find anyone willing to back up popular predictions with their own money, even very modest sums. For example, in 2007, I offered to bet on […]

We’ve seen quite a few excuses run up the flagpole by Warmists attempting to explain away the almost 18 year pause in rising temperatures. In April the UK Guardian was a leader in trotting out #11, that surface temperatures do not matter. Now they position #12, which is just enough different from the seas ate […]

Jo Nova wondered when the original DOOOOOM story about Western Antarctica melt was released whether it could be due to volcanic activity. Surprise? Today she writes Only last week I wondered if West Antarctic volcanoes had something to do with the Antarctic warming and pointed out this strange coincidence below where almost all the warming […]

I’m still not that concerned with Obama’s climate change plan: there is a low probability that it will actually be implemented. There will be too many lawsuits filed and fought. Republican led states, and perhaps energy states with Democrat leadership, will blow the regulations off. A GOP president starting in 2017 will roll the regs […]
