Global Warming Deniers Become More Desperate By the Day

Seriously, where is your pull string for these repetitive mesages RT?

...and now we wait...
 
Seriously, where is your pull string for these repetitive mesages RT?

The real question is how do we turn off your worthless, content-less, pointless nonsense posts? Which is pretty much everything you post. Every thread has an opening post that sets the theme for discussion in that particular thread. Your silly blather adds nothing to that discussion except a waste of space. You are a troll.
 
And three more desperately pointless posts from the denier cult nutjobs. They seem determined to conclusively demonstrate how incredibly irrelevant they are.

That's a mountain of projection right there TinkerBelle. Nothing more irrelevant or desperate than the TITLE of this nut job topic. Obama Admin Last Leap Forward on GW legislation stalled out completely in the past year. Weak attempt to enlist public opinion and REVIVE the believers that are remaining on your side. MUCH MORE objective statements coming from the Science side.. The hysteria is nearly surrendered -- except for you and 13 other zealots..

We will learn more about the climate and how it changes WITHOUT your cheerleading and cranky attitude. And most of OUR USMB warmers can only sit there and accuse the REST of us of the very things you hold-outs are doing..

Just like in Peter Pan -- if the audience doesn't clap for TinkerBelle -- your lights are about to go out and the fairy dust will settle to the ground.. :lmao:
 
Once again the vacuum headed deniers have managed to make five posts without even once saying anything relevant to the OP or the thread of discussion. All of their nonsense and drivel just confirms some of the points made in the OP, particularly about desperation.

Well, in their defense, the earth's atmosphere warms and cools in a constant cycle, resulting from minor variations in the earths orbit and output of the sun. Which means that AGW is a farce; which is to say AGW represents a litany of deceits, fraudulently advanced as a means in influence the ignorant.


Deceit, FRAUD, Ignorance: The Triumvirate of Evil at the hollow core of socialism.

NOAA: Past Decade Warmest on Record According to Scientists in 48 Countries
Earth has been growing warmer for more than fifty years

NOAA
State of the Climate
The 2009 State of the Climate report released today draws on data for 10 key climate indicators that all point to the same finding: the scientific evidence that our world is warming is unmistakable. More than 300 scientists from 160 research groups in 48 countries contributed to the report, which confirms that the past decade was the warmest on record and that the Earth has been growing warmer over the last 50 years. Based on comprehensive data from multiple sources, the report defines 10 measurable planet-wide features used to gauge global temperature changes. The relative movement of each of these indicators proves consistent with a warming world. Seven indicators are rising: air temperature over land, sea-surface temperature, air temperature over oceans, sea level, ocean heat, humidity and tropospheric temperature in the “active-weather” layer of the atmosphere closest to the Earth’s surface. Three indicators are declining: Arctic sea ice, glaciers and spring snow cover in the Northern hemisphere. “For the first time, and in a single compelling comparison, the analysis brings together multiple observational records from the top of the atmosphere to the depths of the ocean,” said Jane Lubchenco, Ph.D., under secretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere and NOAA administrator. “The records come from many institutions worldwide. They use data collected from diverse sources, including satellites, weather balloons, weather stations, ships, buoys and field surveys. These independently produced lines of evidence all point to the same conclusion: our planet is warming,”

The report emphasizes that human society has developed for thousands of years under one climatic state, and now a new set of climatic conditions are taking shape. These conditions are consistently warmer, and some areas are likely to see more extreme events like severe drought, torrential rain and violent storms. “Despite the variability caused by short-term changes, the analysis conducted for this report illustrates why we are so confident the world is warming,” said Peter Stott, Ph.D., contributor to the report and head of Climate Monitoring and Attribution of the United Kingdom Met Office Hadley Centre. “When we look at air temperature and other indicators of climate, we see highs and lows in the data from year to year because of natural variability. Understanding climate change requires looking at the longer-term record. When we follow decade-to-decade trends using multiple data sets and independent analyses from around the world, we see clear and unmistakable signs of a warming world.” While year-to-year changes in temperature often reflect natural climatic variations such as El Niño/La Niña events, changes in average temperature from decade-to-decade reveal long-term trends such as global warming. Each of the last three decades has been much warmer than the decade before. At the time, the 1980s was the hottest decade on record. In the 1990s, every year was warmer than the average of the previous decade. The 2000s were warmer still. “The temperature increase of one degree Fahrenheit over the past 50 years may seem small, but it has already altered our planet,” said Deke Arndt, co-editor of the report and chief of the Climate Monitoring Branch of NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center. “Glaciers and sea ice are melting, heavy rainfall is intensifying and heat waves are more common. And, as the new report tells us, there is now evidence that over 90 percent of warming over the past 50 years has gone into our ocean.”
 
Once again the vacuum headed deniers have managed to make five posts without even once saying anything relevant to the OP or the thread of discussion. All of their nonsense and drivel just confirms some of the points made in the OP, particularly about desperation.

What are looking for when you post AGW religious propaganda, instead of real science?

You want your fellow AGW cult members to pat you on the back?

If you want a discussion about science all you will need to do is post some real science.

Golly... you'd think with ALL of that melting Ice that SOME of it would cause sea-levels to rise somewhere. Yet NO WHERE ON EARTH are seas rising.

(Stand by for the incoming of: FALSE DATA. If it helps, I've lived within half a mile of the Gulf of Mexico; which is intrinsically connected to every ocean and sea on earth, for over 50 years... and it's not risen a bit in all of that time. Still rising and falling twice a day... to and from the same points.)

There is no such thing as AGW... it's a myth created by the Ideological Left, as a means to fraudulently acquire power.

This is not the first time this has happened. There have been MANY attempts by various cults to warn of planetary doom, falling skies and such. All of which was covered in the fable "Chicken Little". You should check it out, there is a surprise moral to the story, of which you're clearly ignorant.

It is often reported that the temperature of the earth is higher the past 20 years than it has ever been in history. This is simply not true, nor has it ever been. Hundreds of research studies using ice cores, pollen sedimentation, tree rings, etc. have shown that there were dozens of periods in the past 11,000 years (the Holocene period) that earth's temperature was warmer than it is today. Earth's temperature was very much warmer at least four times during the current interglacial period.
 
I have noticed many stressed trees in my area as a result of the very COLD winter we experienced.

This article by Dr. David Suzuki, a noted scientist and author, really nails it. Most of the world now recognizes the reality and seriousness of Anthropogenic Global Warming and its consequent climate changes. The astroturfed cult of AGW denial that the fossil fuel industry has ginned up is doomed to sink even further into ignominy and disgrace and laughableness as the world continues to obviously heat up and the climate changes become even more apparent.

Global Warming Deniers Become More Desperate By the Day
Dr. David Suzuki
August 5, 2014
The Heartland Institute’s recent International Climate Change Conference in Las Vegas illustrates climate change deniers’ desperate confusion. As Bloomberg News noted, “Heartland’s strategy seemed to be to throw many theories at the wall and see what stuck.” A who’s who of fossil fuel industry supporters and anti-science shills variously argued that global warming is a myth; that it’s happening but natural—a result of the sun or “Pacific Decadal Oscillation;” that it’s happening but we shouldn’t worry about it; or that global cooling is the real problem."

The only common thread, Bloomberg reported, was the preponderance of attacks on and jokes about Al Gore: “It rarely took more than a minute or two before one punctuated the swirl of opaque and occasionally conflicting scientific theories.”

Personal attacks are common among deniers. Their lies are continually debunked, leaving them with no rational challenge to overwhelming scientific evidence that the world is warming and that humans are largely responsible. Comments under my columns about global warming include endless repetition of falsehoods like “there’s been no warming for 18 years,” “it’s the sun,” and references to “communist misanthropes,” “libtard warmers,” alarmists and worse…

Far worse. Katharine Hayhoe, director of Texas Tech’s Climate Science Center and an evangelical Christian, had her email inbox flooded with hate mail and threats after conservative pundit Rush Limbaugh denounced her, and right-wing blogger Mark Morano published her email address. “I got an email the other day so obscene I had to file a police report,” Hayhoe said in an interview on the Responding to Climate Change website. “They mentioned my child. It had all kinds of sexual perversions in it—it just makes your skin crawl.”

One email chastised her for taking “a man’s job” and called for her public execution, finishing with, “If you have a child, then women in the future will be even more leery of lying to get ahead, when they see your baby crying next to the basket next to the guillotine.”

Many attacks came from fellow Christians unable to accept that humans can affect “God’s creation.” That’s a belief held even by a few well-known scientists and others held up as climate experts, including Roy Spencer, David Legates and Canadian economist Ross McKitrick. They’ve signed the Cornwall Alliance’s Evangelical Declaration on Global Warming, which says, “We believe Earth and its ecosystems—created by God’s intelligent design and infinite power and sustained by His faithful providence—are robust, resilient, self-regulating, and self-correcting, admirably suited for human flourishing, and displaying His glory. Earth’s climate system is no exception.” This worldview predetermines their approach to the science.

Lest you think nasty, irrational comments are exclusively from fringe elements, remember the gathering place for most deniers, the Heartland Institute, has compared those who accept the evidence for human-caused climate change to terrorists. Similar language was used to describe the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in a full-page ad in USA Today and Politico from the Environmental Policy Alliance, a front group set up by PR firm Berman and Company, which has attacked environmentalists, labour-rights advocates, health organizations—even Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the Humane Society—on behalf of funders and clients including Monsanto, Wendy’s and tobacco giant Phillip Morris. The terrorism meme was later picked up by Pennsylvania Republican congressman Mike Kelly.

Fortunately, most people don’t buy irrational attempts to disavow science. A Forum Research poll found 81 percent of Canadians accept the reality of global warming, and 58 percent agree it’s mostly human-caused. An Ipsos MORI poll found that, although the U.S. has a higher number of climate change deniers than 20 countries surveyed, 54 percent of Americans believe in human-caused climate change. (Research also shows climate change denial is most prevalent in English-speaking countries, especially in areas “served” by media outlets owned by Rupert Murdoch, who rejects climate science.)

It’s time to shift attention from those who sow doubt and confusion, either out of ignorance or misanthropic greed, to those who want to address a real, serious problem. The BBC has the right idea, instructing its reporters to improve accuracy by giving less air time to people with anti-science views, including climate change deniers.

Solutions exist, but every delay makes them more difficult and costly.

Don't forget the many secrets the government is keeping about HAARP, supposedly a research facility--but the documents (and countless people) say otherwise.
The technology can alter particles in the ionosphere, atmosphere, and magnetosphere. Hmm, sounds a bit fishy doesn't it?

Even more desperately delusional denier cult bullshit from another ignorant retard who thinks that conditions in his backyard are representative of the entire planet and that sea levels are rising at the same rate everywhere. Here's the facts that his rightwingnut ideology demand that he deny.

Sea level is rising at an increasing rate
NOAA - National Ocean Service
There is strong evidence that global sea level is now rising at an increased rate and will continue to rise during this century. While studies show that sea levels changed little from AD 0 until 1900, sea levels began to climb in the 20th century. The two major causes of global sea-level rise are thermal expansion caused by the warming of the oceans (since water expands as it warms) and the loss of land-based ice (such as glaciers and polar ice caps) due to increased melting. Records and research show that sea level has been steadily rising at a rate of 0.04 to 0.1 inches per year since 1900. This rate may be increasing. Since 1992, new methods of satellite altimetry (the measurement of elevation or altitude) indicate a rate of rise of 0.12 inches per year. This is a significantly larger rate than the sea-level rise averaged over the last several thousand years.

Cooked records are just cooked records dweeb. No one believes the horseshit anymore. Get used to it. You've failed.
