Ten Major Failures of So-called Consensus Climate Science | Watts Up With That?In the attached analysis we take a look at the IPCC based science. We are going to ignore all the many ‘gates’ that were uncovered like the Himalayan glaciers, Amazon rain forests, how many real scientists there were who authored the key summaries and all the issues as to whether the summaries truly reflected the scientific information in the chapters and despite claims to the contrary, how a significant percentage of citations were not peer reviewed.
We will not attempt to address the issues of sensitivity for CO2 or solar and cloud and water vapor feedbacks relative to the models. We will also ignore the many model shortcomings – like inability to forecast regional patterns, ocean oscillations, etc. Each of these alone discredit the consensus ‘settled science claim.
We will focus on how actual data compares to the consensus science, model based virtual world view of climate.
We will look at some of the major findings, assessments or model predictions from the IPCC and other national climate centers and NGOs, that we believe have failed and let you decide then whether or not the their science and model projections should be the bedrock onto which we build public policy.
The ten issues:
1. Warming is said to be unprecedented and accelerating. It is neither.
2. Global warming is not GLOBAL
3. Winters would grow increasingly warm
4. The entire Northern Hemisphere would experience less snow and snowcover
5. The arctic oscillation (AO) would become increasingly positive, aiding in the warming
6. Global warming would lead to a permanent or semi-permanent El Nino
7. Atmosphere will warm faster than surface (because that is where the heat trapping gases are).
8. Record highs and heat waves are increasing
9. Sea levels are rising at an increasing, alarming rate
10. Droughts and floods will worsen
You expect the Priests of the religion of Global warming to care how often you disprove their idiocy? You expect the blindly faithful following on this board to care?
Sure. Sane advice from undegreed an ex-TV weatherman that has been repeatedly caught in lies. From a pretend English Lord with no science degree. From some degreed professors here that also testified previously as to the harmlessness of tobacco. A real cast of professionals there, Ian.
As for your list, just look at number 10. Think Pakistan and Australia. Then China and Sri Lanka. Russia. Could be a random clustering. Pretty far outside the curve, however. As for the rest, the seas are rising, the ice is melting, and the global temperature continues to rise.
