Good f-cking Lord!!! You sound like a Born Yesterday Christian. Zero rationality or logic.

Anthrpocene has become an environmental buzzword ever since the atmospheric chemist and Nobel laureate Paul Crutzen popularized it in 2000

You believe that every major scientific body on the Earth from NASA to NOA is perpetuating a hoax and are outright lying;

You believe that the 97% of climatologists who support the theory of climate change are part of a giant global transnational conspiracy and are not following the basic principles of science as embodied in observe, test and record and are all falsifying research in part to protect their funding in part as a cog in the conspiracy wheel;

You claim that just because there is more consensus amongst scientists about anthropogenic climate change than there is about smoking causing cancer that the jury is out and science is divided and that the acceptance of scientific theories has nothing to do with consensus;

You believe climate change is a liberal conspiracy to promote new taxes and wealth distribution.

Then you peel back enough of your tinfoil hat to see yourself type that I have zero rationality or logic.

Too funny.

Since we are still in the Holocene not some science fiction epoch, lets stick with it. Are we at the temperature apex of the Holocene?

Yes or no?

Probably not. I already answered this earlier for you. I just don't believe that human activity is not having an even greater impact and I believe that because unlike Walter or yourself, I don't believe that eggheads from NASA and the like are part of a leftwing government conspiracy.

I believe in science overall, not just the bits and pieces that fit in with my political, cultural or spiritual views.

NASA doesn't want its funding to dry up and the gubmint wants more power. No conspiracy just everyone looking out for themselves.

What conspiracy? It was bitchin' cold for 450 years now we are warming thanks to the return of solar cycles that for some reason vanished. Now unfortunately they are diminishing which is the reason for the flat line in warming. NASA claims it will start warming IF the sunspots return to levels prior to the last two cycles.

That is fact.

Sigh.

Fact: The oceans have warmed a 1/3 of a degree Fahrenheit since 1969.
Fact: Warm water expands.
Fact: Combined with other sources such as glacial melt the oceans have risen 6.7 inches in the last century.
Fact: The current rate of rise is now 10x what is was when measured from the 1890s to 2000 now at about an inch per year.
Fact: You have to be pretty goddamned committed to being deliberately ignorant not to know this stuff.

Hey, Walter thought that the post was OK!

So curious Walter........is it only climate data NASA lies about or is it everything?

What overall percentage of information released by NASA is a lie in your opinion?

You expect Walnut to actually have a reasonable conversation?
