|
|
Greenland's ice loss is accelerating & will add metres of sea level rise in upcoming centuries.

Doubling the concentration of atmospheric CO2 from its pre-industrial level, in the absence of other forcings and feedbacks, would likely cause a warming of ~0.3°C to 1.1°C.

“Lyme Disease is much more common in northern, cooler regions of the United States than in southern, warmer regions.

policies based on previous climate model output and predictions might need to be reconsidered
|
|
|
He said: ‘We have had five warming cycles since about 900AD, each followed by a dramatic cooling cycle.’
|
|
|
'Mauna Loa has been producing a readout which supports Manning's predetermined goal by showing steady growth in atmospheric CO2 concentrations since 1959.
|
|
|
We simply could never release enough CO2 into the atmosphere to cause the pH to go below 7 [the point in the pH scale at which a solution becomes acidic].”
|
|
|
When the exact same group of 'experts' who claimed it was global cooling in 1977 now claim it's global warming you can easily see why I am skeptical
|
|
|
In 1905, PDO switched to a warm phase.
|
|
|
Prof Adam Scaife, a climate modelling expert at the UK’s Met Office, said the evidence for a link to shrinking Arctic ice was now good: ‘The consensus points towards that being a real effect.’”
|
|
|
“The jet stream forms a boundary between the cold north and the warmer south, but the lower temperature difference means the winds are now weaker.
|
|
|
Satellite temperature readings going back to 1979 show 1998 was by far the warmest year in the satellite era
|
|
|
The CERN CLOUD experiment only tested one-third of one out of four requirements necessary to blame global warming on cosmic rays, and two of the other requirements have already failed.
|

Trudeau's carbon tax will raise gas prices by 11 cents/litre.
|

Thanks to a rapid rebound in recent months, global sea ice levels now equal those seen 29 years ago, when the year 1979 also drew to a close.
|
|
|
On Feb. 7, several major newspapers carried stories of the declaration by NASA and NOAA that the past five years have been the warmest on record.
|
|
|
Ocean acidification is the terrifying threat whereby all that man-made CO2 we’ve been pumping into the atmosphere may react with the sea to form a sort of giant acid bath.
|
|
|
The claim that 2.2 conventional jobs are destroyed for every new job created in the alternative energy industry is based on a study which relies on incorrect numbers, cherrypicked dates, faulty theory, flawed methodology, and is disproven by real-world examples.
|
|
|
Sea level rise is now increasing faster than predicted due to unexpectedly rapid ice melting.
|
|
|
By 2080, without dramatic reductions in emissions, southern Europe will be in permanent extreme drought, much worse than the American dust bowl ever was.
|
|
|
If ECS is as low as the Energy Balance literature suggests, it means that the climate models we have been using for decades run too hot and need to be revised.
|
|
|
Days of near-100-degree-Fahrenheit temperatures cooked the Mountain West in early July, and a scorching heat wave lingered over the Pacific Northwest in early August.”
|
|
|
Believers think the warming is man-made, while the skeptics believe the warming is natural and contributions from man are minimal and certainly not potentially catastrophic à la Al Gore.'
|
|
|
Internal variability can only account for small amounts of warming and cooling over periods of decades, and scientific studies have consistently shown that it cannot account for the global warming over the past century.
|
|
|
And their wind and manure emit more than one third of emissions of another, methane, which warms the world 20 times faster than carbon dioxide.
|
|
|
This requires us to work towards avoiding catastrophic possibilities rather than looking at probabilities, as learning from mistakes is not an option when it comes to existential risks.
|
|
|
The EPA director under Obama said the Clean Power Initiative would have no effect on man-made CO2 emissions.
|
|
|
An additional kick was supplied by an El Niño weather pattern that peaked in 2016 and temporarily warmed much of the surface of the planet, causing the hottest year in a historical record dating to 1880.
|
|
|
Arctic sea ice loss is matched by Antarctic sea ice gain.
|
|
|
‘Clean coal’ is an approach in which the emissions from coal-burning power plants would be captured and pumped underground.
|
|
|
In 1946, PDO switched to a cool phase.
|
|
|
All the indicators show that global warming is still happening.
|
|
|
They changed the name from 'global warming' to 'climate change'.
|
|
|
Temperature errors in the Great Lakes region are not used in any global temperature records.
|
|
|
The data suggests solar activity is influencing the global climate causing the world to get warmer."
|
|
|
In fact, the trend, while not statistically significant, is downward.”
|
|
|
Therefore human emissions upset the natural balance, rising CO2 to levels not seen in at least 800,000 years.
|
|
|
Also, it is increasingly clear that the planet was significantly warmer than today several times during the past 10,000 years.
|
|
|
It found the scientists' rigour and honesty are not in doubt, and their behaviour did not prejudice the IPCC's conclusions, though they did fail to display the proper degree of openness.
|
|
|
"We found [U.S. weather] stations located next to the exhaust fans of air conditioning units, surrounded by asphalt parking lots and roads, on blistering-hot rooftops, and near sidewalks and buildings that absorb and radiate heat.
|
|
|
From 1970 until 1998 there was a warming period that raised temperatures by about 0.7 F that helped spawn the global warming alarmist movement.
|
|
|
No state generates as much solar power as California, or has as many people whose jobs depend on it.
|
|
|
“In 2013 the level of U.S. farm output was about 2.7 times its 1948 level, and productivity was growing at an average annual rate of 1.52%.
