2017 was the 2nd Warmest Year on Record

And yet, 2018 will be cooler than 2017. Why? Because CO2 doesn't matter much.

It shouldn't be able to cool down as much as it has if CO2 was really the awesome "heat trapper" some people babble about. The same people willing to overlook the obvious that it was the waning El-Nino that was the reason for the cooling down.

Why is this relevant when we expect every coming year to be a new high?

Do you think any of us think CO2 levels will start dropping?

As usual, you ignore what every main-stream scientific organization is saying. Not ONE mainstream scientific organization backs your science. Not ONE!

Let us heed the caution raised by the world’s most knowledgeable atmospheric physicist, Professor Richard Siegmund Lindzen of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology:
What historians will definitely wonder about in future centuries is how deeply flawed logic, obscured by shrewd and unrelenting propaganda, actually enabled a coalition of powerful special interests to convince nearly everyone in the world that CO2 from human industry was a dangerous, planet-destroying toxin. It will be remembered as the greatest mass delusion in the history of the world – that CO2, the life of plants, was considered for a time to be a deadly poison.

[h=1]SkS debunks latest skeptic myth: “scientists in the ‘00s predicted global surface warming”[/h]Posted on 14 Mar 18 by BRAD KEYES • 12 Comments
Time to excavate your SkepticalScience.com bookmark! An exciting new ‘guest debunk’ by the Harvard scholar Naomi Ores*kes exam*ines the popular mis*conception that “cientists in the 1990s and 2000s said the global atmosphere would heat up.” Spoil*er alert: her anal*ysis concludes that the myth is not, in fact, true. On the contrary—it’s flawed. We caught up with Professor Oreskes … C

The AGW cultists has been prepping for quite some time along those lines by way of many of them switching away from the term "global warming" and adopting the term "climate change".

Doesn't take a lot of backpedalling to back up the opinion of every mainstream scientific organization in the world. Perhaps you should quit listening to your Right-Wing media lies.

Ah. So you have no real reply.

No, you're the one with no real reply. You state it's cooling. You said the same thing last year, and it ended up being the 2nd hottest year ever. I mention that not one mainstream scientific organization takes your scientific stance, and you mention a single person. You just can't help putting your foot in your mouth.

Not impressed. I am still waiting on the global cooling all of those smart scientists with charts promised us in the 1970s. That may have been before your time.

Last year, 2017, was cooler than 2016, and 2018 will be cooler than 2017. Right on track.

Yours is a demonstrably false graph. It's the attempt to hide 1998 that exposes the lying.

Alarmism / Arctic
[h=1]Remember that “unprecedented” Arctic heating event in February 2018? Never mind.[/h]In Feburary 2018, the temperature in the Arctic region went up considerably, prompting the usual caterwauling from climate alarmists worldwide. It looked like this at Vox, they saw red, and the caption is theirs: The temperature plot from the Danish Meteorological Institute showing the spiking temperatures about 80°North: Source: Ocean and Ice Services | Danmarks Meteorologiske Institut Predictably, excitable pundits went nuts over…

Still waiting for the honest warmist admission that the warming rate are similar to previous warming rates to the 1860's. Still waiting for the their honest admission that the IPCC Per Decade warming rate prediction/projection is a failure. Still waiting for the honest admission that Modern Warming came right on schedule, just like the Medieval Warming, Roman Warming, Minoan warming came around 900- 1100 years apart.

Been waiting for several years now.

Waiting.... waiting.. waiting.

It is when he uses the WORST land data set.

Notice that in GISS, eliminated the well known COOLING trend from 1940's to the 1970's? It was around .50C now it about flat.

Evidence is hard on him.

They are all quite similar.

Sorry you don’t like the facts.

Oh yes, that sounds like a real trend, Jack. And 2005 was cooler than 2009. Wow! You must be correct.:roll:
