    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Yet more evidence that the real purpose of all this AGW scam is to attack the economy of the capitalist West.;-)

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Actually, the data shows that changes twice as fast as the current one were common in the past, as well as twice as large. As for the nine year period, yes it is too short, it's statistically insignificant because such fluctuations are part of either warming or cooling trends. But then some...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    As a matter of fact I did peruse it. I didn't follow all the links, I don't have time for that. I did notice that there was no mention of southern hemispherical weather, which has been quite cold lately. (Did I miss it, is it there?) I offered a link to a sample of one of the weather...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Like it matters what I call it. As a matter of fact, I called it by the same name as the person who referred it to me. Perhaps a more fitting name would be a summary, or report. :roll: What difference is it what I call it? I could call it...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    You know, I've been ignoring your accusations of strawman tactics because they were so obviously inapplicable to my comments, but I'm beginning to think you don't know what the term means. You use strawman arguments yourself frequently (apparently without realizing the name of what you're...

    Wouldn't surprise me at all to find it's about as accurate as Mann.

    Hmmm, do Mann et al have anything to do with that? Seems similar. I wonder, did they use information from sensors like this one? Wow, I bet that's accurate.

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Another myth is that we are experiencing weather extremes. Want an example of a real extreme? During the period of global cooling known as the “Little Ice Age” on the afternoon of August 3, 1562, a thunderstorm front several hundred kilometers in extent struck central Europe. After several...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Well, actually it depends where you start measuring. Over the last 6 million years it's a cooling trend. (Back then it was up to 10 degrees C warmer than now). Over the last 400,000 years it's a cooling trend. Over the last 16,000 years (which includes an ice age) it's a warming trend. Over...

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    Yes, of course. The climate change fundamentalist religion doesn't like heretical information to get out. Rule #1 for AGW dogma - Attack the heretic and repeat the mantra - there is global warming and we are causing it, there is global warming and we are causing it, there is global warming...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    The data show temp increases well before CO2 increases. Then the temps drop, while the CO2 continues to rise. If CO2 caused warming, then that rising CO2 would have cause the temps to rise, yet they fell.

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    I'm not suggesting that past temperature increase is responsible for the extra CO2 increase. What I'm saying is the current temp increase is entirely normal, but CO2 increase is only partly normal. You seem to be saying that temp increase is due to CO2 increase, even though it never caused...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Our population was much less than 1/10 of now, and relied on a lot of manpower and beastpower to keep ourselves fed. No fields were lost to sea level rise. When the warming ended and the cool period began there was mass starvation and disease. Except they weren't. They farm in Libya too. All...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    The data clearly shows that temperature increases have preceded CO2 increases for several hundred thousand years. The data also show that current CO2 levels are increasing more than could be accounted for by the preceding temperature increase. The only conclusion to be reached from that, is...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Why would we die? Last time it got warm humanity and civilization thrived like never before. Why would current farmlands become arid waste? Are you suggesting that farming is only viable in temperate regions? You mean they can't farm in Brazil, or Ecuador, or Sri Lanka because it's all arid...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    There you go again. Once more (please take notes so I won't have to tell you again) it's not the climate change that's in dispute, it's the cause. The dispute is whether it is human caused, and since the evidence indicates that CO2 in the past has not caused temperature increases, what is the...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    The increases in temperature that resulted in increases in CO2 levels clearly indicate that CO2 increase will have little if any effect on global temperatures. Therefore, what's the big panic about CO2 increases?

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Ever look at the commodity market? It's going to speculators and investors. And if you take inflation into account, it was higher priced in the "70's. Nonsense. There were more hurricanes in the first half of the 20th century than the second half. Current droughts are small compared to...
