'Global Warming' Has Stopped! The Climate Change HOAX!
'Global Warming' has stopped
The simple truth is, the global warming, excuse me, the climate change alarmists are wrong. How wrong? (Emphasis mine throughout)
For 10 years, average temperatures on earth have not risen. For seven years, the trend has been downward. The fall between January 2007 and January 2008 was the biggest since records began in 1880.
Of course, it would be premature for me to assume that any climate change, at least into the plus side, has completely stopped. As the above states, the climate has indeed changed. But not in the way we have been browbeat about for years now. If anything facts like these show unequivocally that climate change FLUCTUATES. It is never static, either trending up or down. And the fact that the temperatures of the planet have either plateaued, or dropped over the last ten years, especially during a time when the EVIL CO2 has continued to increase in the atmosphere, should lead anyone seeing Al Gore in person to tell him to shut the hell up.
Well the UN says we're all doomed. Really?
Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the UN's climate panel, says it had better find out where it got its sums wrong. Lord Lawson, a former UK Treasury Secretary, says the panel should be scrapped.
Well, well, umm, ice sheets are breaking off at an alarming rate. Glaciers are melting. Blah, blah, blah. It seems that with most things, a bit of context is needed, at least as far as the alarmists are concerned.
"A 5,282-square-mile ice shelf has begun to collapse because of rapid climate change in the Antarctic Peninsula. The Wilkins is one of a string of ice shelves that have collapsed in the past 30 years. Larsen B disappeared in one month in 2002. Six similar collapses underscore the region's unprecedented warming."
Blood-curdling, but false. The Wilkins Ice Shelf, like its vanished neighbors, was not there in the medieval warm period, or in the 2,000-year-long Holocene Climate Optimum, when global temperatures were above today's.
Ted Scambos of the National Snow and Ice Data Center, who first spotted the disintegration in March, says the Wilkins has been in place for a few centuries. So it was not there before.
The Antarctic Peninsula represents just 2 percent of the continent, and still less of its ice mass. The vanished ice shelves covered a combined area just 1/55 the size of Texas. Massive chunks break away from Antarctica all the time, to re-grow in colder times. Whalers' logs going back centuries report sightings of vast icebergs hundreds of miles long.
Since regular temperature records were first kept 50 years ago, most of the continent has been cooling. The Antarctic peninsula is an exception. Local undersea volcanic activity may be partly to blame.
Don't forget the Sun...
Another factor is the warming effect of the recently ended 70-year Solar Grand Maximum, when the sun was more active, and for longer, than at almost any similar period in the past 11,400 years. Long-term ocean changes have also contributed.
And don't look for alarmists claiming much ice melt or break off over the next few months. Why? Winter has come to Antarctica. And a funny thing about that sea level rise. Did you know the sea ROSE 8 inches during the 20th century? Neither did I. And all of those places that were on the coast a hundred years ago aren't under 8 inches of water.
Back in the Antarctic, winter has come, so ice-shelf disintegration has stopped. Even if Wilkins collapses altogether, melting ice shelves add not a millimeter to sea level: the ice is already floating. Niklas Moerner, who has spent his entire 30-year career studying sea level, says sea level will rise this century by little more than the 8 inches observed in the 20th century. Just 3 inches of that rise will come from ice-melt.
And here's a coup de grace paragraph if there ever was one.
In the Arctic, the media reported less summer sea ice than at any time since records began. Most did not report that records began only 30 years ago; that at both Poles there is more sea ice now than ever since records began; that there are five times more polar bears today than 50 years ago; that the Arctic was warmer in the 1940s than today; or that the average thickness of the vast Greenland ice sheet grew by 2 inches yearly from 1993-2003.
The dead ender, the climate fascist or Gore Acolyte won't acknowledge any of this. It's cherry picked. 'Big Oil' funded something/someone, etc. It is a case study in fanaticism.
Show this stuff to anyone you may know, who hasn't bothered to do any research or inform themselves on the subject. I'd be willing to bet they pass it off as something made up or it couldnt be true. Then ask them how they know. How many of them will be able to name a scientific source? How many have even looked at anything contrary to the propaganda? How many of them will point to Al Gore, Sheryl Crow, An Inconvenient Truth or the MSM said such and such?
What is even more telling is that almost none of them will respond in a positive manner. Will they give thanks? Will they be happy that the good news is the bad news was wrong? No!
It shows the investment of negativity, and the willingness for so many, to abdicate so much, based on so little.
