Not shocked....not at all... it's a childish (or, in this case, ignorant or dishonest) question. Any trained chimp with google can go find out why that one degree is significant, and why comparisons of this climatic change to a daily swing of temperature are absurd and belie abject ignorance of this topic. And it surprises me that you, supposedly well-versed in this topic, and obviously putting much thought into it, would say something so goddamn fundamentally stupid about this topic. I am just not going to play along, sorry.
So how come this is an easy challenge for trained chimps and not for you???
And WHY IS "a comparison of climatic change (of one 1 degree) to a daily swing in temperature" absurd. Go find a chimp to train you and get back to me..
NASA: ‘Unusually cold winter’ causes Lake Erie to ice over – nearly 60% of all lakes covered with ice
I wonder if a -5 deg C drop is worse?
If you cannot understand the difference between "local weather" and "global climate", you should not open your mouth on this topoc. Ever.
If one looks at the global climate in terms of regional records, as opposed to the heavily manipulated, homogenized, and bastardized global record, one does not find a global climate anything like that suggested by the so called global record.
For example, the surface temperature of the Irminger Sea (North Atlantic) has been steadily decreasing since the late 1800's
The surface temperature of Greenland hasn't warmed since the 1880's
Antarctica has seen no real warming trend in almost 200 years...
The Himalayas have seen no warming in 300 years:
And on and on it goes...
New Zealand...no warming since the 1870's
Western Pacific...no warming since the 1870's
Pakistan...no warming since the 1870's
Turkey...no warming since the 1870's
Portugal....no warming since the 1870's
Siberia....no warming since the 1870's
Northeast China...no warming since the 1870's
Southwest China...no warming since the 1870's
Southern South America....no warming since the 1870's
Canada (British Columbia)....no warming since the 1870's
Northern Hemisphere...no warming since the 1950's
Arctic Region...no warming since the 1950's
Rural United States...no warming since the 1940's
Mediterranean..no warming since the 1950's
Brazil....no warming since th e1960's
Andes Mountains....no warming since the 1950's
So tell me fort fun...where exactly is the "global" warming? Answer...nowhere. If one looks at regional records, as opposed to the heavily homogenized, infilled, and altered global record, one sees that few regions in the world have experienced any warming whatsoever for quite some time...some regions for over 300 years.
Now, give me a reason why I should believe a record that is heavily altered and infilled rather than the actual records kept by scientists in the region in question. While you are at it, you might want to read this paper recently published regarding the scientific value of the global record these days....
