In a typical March, particularly in the nation's northern tier, you may see, perhaps, one or perhaps two days of record warmth before a sharp cold front brings that spring tease to a screeching halt. Not so in March 2012.
International Falls, Minn., self-promoted as the "Icebox of the Nation", tied or broke daily record highs 12 of 13 days from Mar. 10-22. This includes a 79-degree reading on March 18, which was the warmest day ever recorded during March in International Falls.
Thursday, March 22, Detroit, Mich., reached 86 degrees, setting an all-time record high for the month of March.
Wow -it really is a religion for you kooks, isn't it?
It doesn't matter how many scientists are proven to have lied, cheated, destroyed their raw data -you have a NEED to believe they were just "funning" with us by doing all that. Sorry but there is no getting around reality. The ONLY time you see scientists commit FRAUD -and it was REPEATEDLY committed with this issue -is because the facts aren't supporting their lying ass claims. They don't destroy their raw data, they don't cheat, they don't change the hard data -when it actually supports their theory. DUH. But maybe that idea is way above your education level.
Climate change is not measured by the day, month or a year -and given the fact we only have only been recording temperatures with any degree of accuracy for about 85 years (and the first 35 of those is "iffy") and the earth is estimated to be roughly 4.5 billion years old -then the odds of breaking records in any given year is actually quite high and will remain quite high for a few thousand years yet. In fact temperatures are NOT outside of the normal RANGE FOR THIS PLANET. And it is called a "range" for a reason -it is because they fluctuate all over the place inside that range. There are NO abnormal temperatures outside the range of NORMAL FOR THIS PLANET. So let's pretend they are anyway, right? And it is a CRISIS! Because no one loves a crisis like a liberal who goes through life just lurching from one crisis to the next as a routine way of life. (There is a reason EVERYTHING is a crisis for the left -but it has very little to do with reality and everything to do with trying to avoid debate and ram through their agenda as quickly as possible.)
Every honest scientist admits that current temperatures are still not as warm as it was during the Middle Ages -OOPS. For a fact -still not as consistently warm as it was during the Middle Ages -but only TODAY is it a CRISIS, right? But in the Middle Ages it was just called........life. Oh and let's not talk about the benefits they enjoyed living during such a warm period either.
I also have to wonder about the education of some of these people and their outrageous claims -starting with the ridiculous notion that carbon dioxide gas traps heat. Where is the PROOF that is true? WHERE ARE THE EXPERIMENTS PROVING THE HEAT TRAPPING CAPABILITIES OF CARBON DIOXIDE? You can find lots of CLAIMS it does and you can even find a scientific equation trying to explain why it does -but no PROOF it does. Not ONE experiment where the heat trapping capabilities of carbon dioxide were indisputably proven to exist and measurable. Yet all you have to do is a CHEAP ASS experiment to prove it -if it were true, of course. Just build a bunch of black boxes and pump each full with a different atmospheric gas at 100% concentration -including carbon dioxide as well as one with normal atmosphere. Let them sit in the sun and then take the internal temperatures at intervals until you give up and get tired of waiting for something to change among the boxes. If carbon dioxide has the capability of trapping heat -the temperature should be SIGNIFICANTLY AND MEASURABLY higher than the boxes with other atmospheric gases. EXCEPT IT ISN'T! The box with carbon dioxide will provably not be any warmer than any of the other boxes with different gases and if carbon dioxide caused heat to be trapped -it would be hotter than the others preventing heat from escaping that box. But it isn't any hotter! Uh oh! Any clue why? It is because trapping heat requires a BARRIER and only that which exists in our atmosphere in barrier form can trap heat. Gas by definition is not a barrier -no matter how many molecules of a gas exist in the atmosphere, there is still lots and lots and lots of EMPTY SPACE between them -allowing heat to easily escape past it. That means VAPOR and ICE in the atmosphere have heat trapping capabilities. But not gas. And carbon dioxide doesn't exist in our atmosphere in any other form except gas. No dry ice in the atmosphere -and therefore no heat trapping abilities either. Carbon dioxide doesn't exist in sheets or clumps in the atmosphere. Even when it exists in 100% concentration inside a box it will not be any hotter than another box filled with a different atmospheric gas. Oh wow -funny how THOSE experiments that repeatedly turn out the same every time are buried, huh? Can't teach kids the truth about THAT one, huh? So now we have to pretend there are magical heat trapping abilities of carbon dioxide that only exist in the atmosphere when dispersed among other gases - but measuring just how much heat trapping capabilities exist in carbon dioxide just can't be measured in an EXPERIMENT at all - because it doesn't exist. So let's ignore that fact and teach our kids a lie and insist it does anyway because the truth about carbon dioxide just doesn't fit in with that "man is nothing but an evil destructive parasite with the AWESOME power to destroy the entire planet and must be forced to return to the living standards of the Stone Age" thing the left lives for, huh.
A greenhouse is hotter than the temperature outside of it NOT because of the gases inside it. But because the GLASS provides a BARRIER - and has even greater heat trapping capabilities than the other barrier that exists in a real greenhouse -the trapped moisture in the form of VAPOR. Both of which have KNOWN and MEASURABLE heat trapping capabilities! If our planet were truly warming in an alarming way indicating "global warming", then the amount of VAPOR in our atmosphere would be significantly changing because lacking glass in our atmosphere, VAPOR is THE main BARRIER trapping heat on earth. Not carbon dioxide which is measured in parts per MILLION -meaning that for every 1,000,000 molecules of atmospheric gases, roughly 390 are carbon dioxide. Meaning 999, 610 in that 1,000,000 are NOT carbon dioxide but some other gas instead. They have to draw an OVER-SIZED graph to show what is in reality a miniscule rise in order to pretend the non-dramatic rise is both dramatic and alarming! Targeting a gas that is actually necessary for the very existence of life and is part of the critical carbon cycle of the entire planet and pretending it exists in "dangerous" amounts is ludicrous. Carbon dioxide used to exist in significantly MUCH, MUCH higher percentages in the past -they KNOW that for a fact - and amazingly it not only was not the fault of human beings but our planet THRIVED. Your NEED to believe otherwise notwithstanding.
Anyone actually pretending a hot day or a series of hot days, a hot year, a hot decade even somehow proves global warming -is a moron or a liar. A REAL change in climate is measured by centuries and sometimes by eons. It CANNOT BE DETERMINED BY A DAY OR BY A MONTH OR BY A YEAR. NOT EVER. Anyone who thinks the climate changes with a drop of a hat must think that dumb ass movie "The Day After Tomorrow" is actually a documentary. In spite of scientists themselves uniformly trashing it as the moronic, misleading and downright stupid piece of shit it is. Record highs or lows on any given day mean exactly that -it was really hot or cold that day. And nothing more.
