Global Warming Update

[Edgetho]

Just thought you'd like to know the latest in our impending doom scenario..... How we're all gonna roast in our own juices and die in a global holocaust of insects, vermin and hell-fire.

Say, doesn't that sound kind of familiar? It sure does to me. Wonder where I've heard that before.

Anyway, I suggest you all repent, beg forgiveness, build a statue to ManBearPig and turn over all your worldly goods to (guess who) who will then dole them out to those who need them. Mainly their cronies and the socialist elites

Especially energy. Because that's what's behind all this. The wanton use of energy by all you proles and untermensch who should just go to work, vote dimocrap and die as soon as you're of no further use to the State.

But do NOT question how a preezy of the united steezy can tell all of us to watch our energy usage then flies Air Force 1 to a golf outing while putting 800 tons of carbon into the atmosphere in the process.

uh-uh.... Don't question that. No way

Otherwise, have a nice day while you can.

The end is near

Mackinac Island prepares for tourists, but ice freezes out spring

A freighter slowly makes its way under the Mackinac Bridge and through the ice,
seen from the U.S. Coast Guard icebreaker Biscayne Bay that was breaking up lots of ice in the Straits of Mackinac on Tuesday.
/ Eric Seals/Detroit Free Press

It’s not exactly spring on Mackinac Island. After the coldest winter in memory, spring is barely to be found on Mackinac, which usually welcomes its first tourists by May 1.

Not a single ferry is running. The horses are not back. There are 10-foot snowbanks on the island. And one ferry line, Arnold Transit, may not open for business at all.

It’s the latest spring Chris Shepler, president of Shepler’s Ferry, can ever remember. Usually, by mid-April, the island is bustling with preparations.

“I have never seen it like this before, and I am 51,” he said today.

Tourism is Michigan’s second-largest industry, and Mackinac Island is its premiere attraction. Without a warmup soon, Michigan tourism dollars will likely take a hit.

Seasonal ferry service usually begins by April 21, but the ice is so thick in Lake Huron that ferry companies need the U.S. Coast Guard to break ice — and that has not happened as of today. The icebreaker is due to arrive by 8 a.m. Thursday to help clear ice that is up to 3 feet thick in Lake Huron in spots between St. Ignace and the island.

“We can’t do anything till the icebreaker comes,” he said.

Repent, all ye sinners

If it's cold, that's also proof of global warming.

How could you not know that?

Do you understand the difference between weather and climate?

I mean, I know you don't. They don't teach those types of things at the Monster Truck Rally.

I guess dimocraps believe that social issues and made-up science coupled with agitprop can either win or prevent them from getting devastated in November's elections.

Because they're hitting the scare machine awful hard these days.

Kinda pathetic when that's all you got, huh?

This is what passes for 'thought' in today's dimocrap scum circles.....

pMSDNC Host Chris Hayes: Ending The Use Of Fossil Fuel Is Like Ending Slavery


See, the only reason we are using fossil fuels according to Chris Hayes (writing in The Nation, not blathering on pMSDNC) is because the one-percent are making so much money from them, kind of like the rich did in the 19th century from owning salves.

Tim Cavanaugh writing at NRO took the time to read this nonsense so we don't have to and finds one potential problem (which it turns out isn't actually a problem from...a certain perspective) with Hayes' idea, it would kill a lot of people.

There are many more moderate suggestions than Hayes’s on the carbon-cap continuum. But his goofy idea makes clear that all of these involve some diminution in human life: less health, less longevity, fewer opportunities to pursue happiness. At some level that translates into fewer people — a consummation many warmists might devoutly wish, though few would admit that. (As green panics go, overpopulation is long over; global warming is merely on its way out.)

Lefties really don't like people. Certainly not "the wrong kind" and are happy to devise ways to shuffle the undesirables off the planet. From Nazi Germany, to Soviet Russia and Mao's China, whenever the hard-left gets control of state sanctioned violence, the death toll is enormous.

Eliminating carbon based fuel by fiat (as opposed to true technological innovation that makes economic sense) is simply a friendlier way to bring about the inevitable leftists end-game.

Hey the word is warm and its cold that means the research and science is wrong - Says the idiot

Listen up all you haters!!

It's not called Global Warming anymore........the correct term now is Climate Change.

Carry on.........

"And Australia higher while Michigan lower".. what's YOUR point?
The average global temperature was "supposedly" an indication of "global warming" right?

So what is the result when Australia's higher temperature and Michigan's lowest temperatures are "averaged"?

Now for a FACT that globalwarmingistas seem to ignore...

12.5% of the EARTH's land mass was not included in the temperature recording stations.

"The number of [Siberian] stations increased from 8 in 1901 to 23 in 1951 and then decreased to 12 from 1989 to present only four (4) stations,
those at Irkutsk, Bratsk, Chita and Kirensk, cover the entire 20th century.

IEA analysts say climatologists use the data of stations located in large populated centers that are influenced by the urban-warming effect more frequently than the correct data of remote stations…
The scale of global warming was exaggerated due to temperature distortions for Russia accounting for 12.5% of the world’s land mass.
The IEA said it was necessary to recalculate all global-temperature data in order to assess the scale of such exaggeration.

I mean didn't they teach math "averages" that says What is the average of these 3 temperatures? 70, 80,60 = 70.
But when you add AVERAGE temperatures of Australia and Average temperatures of Michigan AND the Average Temperature of Siberia 80+60+50 = 63 degrees.
The point is YOU made a BIG deal about Australia's record heat while downplaying Michigan's record cold.
You can't have it both ways... Using Australia as the sign of "global warming" without averaging Michigan's record cold AND again... you and you fellow
ignorant globalwarmingistas completely ignored Siberia's temperatures as the above states!

This week I ran the temperature numbers for climatological winter (December, January, and February) for Alaska. As most Alaska residents can attest to, this winter was warmer than normal. An extremely warm January was somewhat offset by a cooler December and February. The first map shows the statewide winter temperature values by climate division and the second map shows the winter temperatures in the Fairbanks area.

The climate divisions are a relatively new statewide organizational grouping of similar regions by Bieniek et al. (2012). Of the 13 climate divisions, 12 were above normal for the winter. Only Juneau's region was below normal. For the Fairbanks area, nearly every station was 3°F to 4°F above average for the winter.

Both of their new surface temperature data sets show significantly more warming over the past 16 years than HadCRUT4. This is mainly due to HadCRUT4 missing accelerated Arctic warming, especially since 1997.

Cowtan & Way investigate the claim of a global surface warming 'pause' over the past 16 years by examining the trends from 1997 through 2012. While HadCRUT4 only estimates the surface warming trend at 0.046°C per decade during that time, and NASA puts it at 0.080°C per decade, the new kriging and hybrid data sets estimate the trend during this time at 0.11 and 0.12°C per decade, respectively.

These results indicate that the slowed warming of average global surface temperature is not as significant as previously believed. Surface warming has slowed somewhat, in large part due to more overall global warming being transferred to the oceans over the past decade. However, these sorts of temporary surface warming slowdowns (and speed-ups) occur on a regular basis due to short-term natural influences.

What were the lab results of temperature increases per each 100PPM increment of CO2?

Jobs, sustainable energy production, an end to global deforestation, biodegradable plastic, and reversing the Greenhouse Effect are all possible with this:

But keep arguing against it. Cliven Bundy, the Iraq war, the drug war, outlawing abortion, banning gay marriage, and everything else that the right-wing supports have all been shown to be entirely wrong, so why should the right-wing ever want to be right about the Greenhouse Effect and environmental degradation?

Once again, every single Scientific Society, every National Academy of Science, and every major University state in policy statements that AGW is a fact, and a clear and present danger.

So, what you are positing is that there is a massive conspiracy among many millions of scientists from every nation and political system in the world to create the image of a threat that does not exist. Do you even begin to realize how absolutely insane that sounds?

Perhaps you should read Cowtan and Way's peer reviewed article. And take a look at this as backup evidence for their study;
