Where the heck is my Global warming?

[code1211]

On the fourth day of Spring, with temperatures about 25 degrees below normal, I'll be shoveling about a foot of snow off my driveway.

This is not what I was promised. Where is the too high temperature? Where is the drought?

I was also promised flying cars, but I've given up on that.

It is now simply called climate change. As you may have noticed, your climate tends to change.

We have a rain/snow/sleet day in store so HA HA HA on your foot of snow. Sucks to be you.

Here's a question for you.

What is the difference between global and local? *cue Jeopardy music*

It's really nice here.

As I've pointed out many times, both terms have been around for decades. Or did you miss that?

There is a difference between weather and climate. Cold weather can still occasionally happen within a warming climate.

Hot ,cold, wet or dry, local or global. Theres no kind of weather or climate that can now ever exist that wont be deemed all our fault. Ask yourself this question. What kind of climatic conditions could now exist disproving AGW theory ?

Your pockets are getting emptied either way because they have all the bases covered dont they ?

If the warming was continuous, that would be okay. I like it warmer. Having grown up in Minnesota, I find that the weather there is a great thing to have left behind.

However, the warming seems to have stalled as it has on a cycle that seems to be repeating every 60 years since 1880 and maybe before. We should be in for about 30 more years of stalled climate increase.

I would have preferred more warming. Older bones work better in warmer weather.

There mere existence of a particular weather event or climate does not lend evidence for, nor against, AGW. Causation is a more complicated situation. I thought that was obvious, but people still seem confused on that point.

Climate Change is a myth... because it's cold.... where I am...

Where the heck is my Global warming? ... I understand it's owned by Qatar now.

Mere extrapolation is a silly method of prediction.

Those confused people are proponents of AGW.

Not me though. As we've discovered its way too complicated to apportion the blame to 100 PPM of a beneficial trace gas. The only people 'confusing' the issue are those who insist we must abandon logic and do just that

In Indianapolis we have an uber conservative talking head, Garrison, on the radio just before noon. He was the prosecutor that got Mike Tyson convicted. Anyway, every time we get a little snow or cold weather he starts talking/laughing about global warming. We had a record long spell of over 90F days, he did not mention it once. I just find it amusing.

The post I quoted proves otherwise.

Ahh yes, the old "it's a trace gas" meme.

People will then turn around and say "CO2 is plant food, responsible for all life!"

Pretty important trace gas, wouldn't you say?

Global warming is about taxes ie carbon credits period.

 

[bubbabgone]

Climate patterns vary over centuries.
Another warming pattern, just like this one, occurred centuries ago ... before the automobile.
And most climate scientists do NOT agree that CO2 is causing this one.

No it isn't.

What's the meaning of tongue in cheek?

Oh look, it's another guy attacking the straw man! Dude, nobody is claiming humans are the only thing that affects climate.

And the item in bold... aahahah ok chief.

Mere extrapolation is a silly method of prediction.

And yet it seems to be working while the Science of AGW is not.

Yeah, like they really need more warmth! What happened to fairness?...sob... :thumbdown:

You can't make that claim for another couple decades. Your extrapolation is based on future temperatures, so unless you've got a time machine you're not telling us about...
