Australian scientist claims this winter has been warmest ever |
2010-02-28 |
This winter has been the hottest the world has ever seen. If that seems like a hard claim to take seriously as states across the U.S. recover from record-breaking snowfalls over the past few months (we're still shoveling show here at the D.C. office!), you're not alone -- but, say some scientists, you might be suffering from perception bias. The Daily Express over in London observes that Britons, too, are stunned by the claim at an online climate change briefing: The remarkable claim, based on global satellite data, follows Arctic temperatures that brought snow, ice and travel chaos to millions in the UK. |

#6 HISTORY CHANNEL's "LIFE AFTER PEOPLE" > very good show but IMO can and should be broadly interpreted as FUTURE OWG-NWO + SCIEN PERTS are NOT sure nor in joint consensus as per PHASES, MAGNITUDE OF SOLAR CHANGES-EVOLUTIONS, HENCE DITTO FOR EFFECTS OR CONSEQUENCES FOR HUMANITY + EARTH [past, current, + future]. "SIRIUS EVENT" II, or other in past + future. * "KNOWLEDGE IS POWER" > the more Probes NASA-JPL sends to study the Sun, the better + more accurate will be our planning + response. * NASA-JPL + PERTS > is likely aware of this as PERT PLANS ARE IN THE WORKS TO BEGIN STUDYING VARIOUS [biotic?]"LIFE DEEP UNDERNEATH THE EARTH". Read, NASA-JPL, PERTS,etal. WANNA STUDY THE SUN'S STRENGTH AS PER UNDERGROUND = "CRUSTAL/TECTONIC" SOLAR RAY PENETRATION FROM SPACE. US-International Studies of the EARTH'S CORE have already pre-existed for decades. |

#3 Simple logic: The temperature inside a real greenhouse is warm and moderate--it does not have hot and cold, only warm. The moisture moderates temperature change. Conversely, where there is little moisture, like in an arid desert, it is hot during the day, and cold at night. Little or no greenhouse effect. The big "blanket" in our atmosphere, the thermosphere, is where most greenhouse activity happens. In the last few years, it has lost about 1/3rd of its depth, for unknown reasons, likely the solar minimum. This means we have just the *opposite* of a greenhouse effect. This means *both* hotter summers and colder winters, and shorter Springs and Falls. Less warm moderation as is found in a greenhouse. |

#2 Australia's Reference Climate Station Network The trend in Australia seems to indicate a rise in temperatures over the past decade. Extrapolation of data to infer a global trend is the subtle subterfuge of "climate scientists". |

#1 Wasnt there an old saying "If you're going to lie, make it a whopper". |
