#14  How do they explain -97F on top og Mt. Washington two weeks ago?

Slavery and racism.

#13  What we expect is climate. What we get is weather.

#10  These climatologists are idiots and do not view weather as part of a much larger set of events/scientific rules that contradict everything they say.

But but... we have evidence from our hand-crafted computer models and thoroughly massaged and "adjusted" data showing that global warming climate change is real and we are all doomed. DOOMED, I tell you! (unless you give us more money and regulations)

Personally, I'll be glad when all this nonsense blows over and we can go back to doing science instead of creating a new religion.

#9  Everything I have read on global warming contradicts everything I have ever read about the past two ice ages.

The precursor to an ice age is the melting of the polar caps, which reduces the conductivity of heat in the oceans and substantially degrades the ocean currents which are in thermodynamics, convection currents as the oceans try to read thermal equilibrium.

Once the gulf stream and the other warm water currents quit working and the exposed polar oceans pump vast amounts of humidity into the atmosphere, the snow fall grows exponentially and a new ice age begins.

As a side note, the climate alarmists for years were on the ice age bandwagon. In fact a predecessor to "The Day After" was a Paul Newman movie called "Domino" which showed how mankind would adapt and or die as the result of a coming ice age.

So the carbon tax and the carbon credit exchanges that made Al Gore and others wealthy and are weaponized by the left in their eternal quest for power are as we would say "fake news" or "junk science".

In fact, the opposite would most likely happen global warming and the increase in ocean temperatures would radically increase the amount of rainfall. It is no accident that every large desert is faced by an extremely cold water current, the Atakapa, Kalahari, Sahara, and Mojave are all adjacent to cold water currents. Warming those currents would increase humidity and then increase the rainfall...as well as diluting the ocean salinity and reducing the currents.

These climatologists are idiots and do not view weather as part of a much larger set of events/scientific rules that contradict everything they say.

#7  When Daddy saw doves at the Kremlin,
And Mommy conceived in a Gremlin,
It isn't surprising,
Their temperatures rising,
Kids quake as they bake, on a drumlin.

#6  'Global warming' has been going on for 10-15,000 years. Long Island was formed at the end of a glacier thousands of feet thick. Indian relics are found miles offshore under 50' of water. Before we can claim human activity is causing more warming we need to explain why warming should have stopped.

#1  No shit...

Especially considering we still have the ice caps they were predicting would be gone.

We still have cold winters and snow...

In fact I would argue 99.99% of the global warming scenarios are not credible.
