Prosecute Climate Change Advocates

There are no very long term data sets that are consistent due to a range of factors including standards, methodologies, and technology. In the case of sea ice, the 30 year average referred to in my earlier post provides, for the first time for this data series, reliable, consistent and accurate information.
Trends are identifiable through the time series, and are typically self-evident.
 
Smelly Terror, when you're quoting a post to which you're replying, could you please click on the link which brings up the quote including the nic of the original poster, especially when you're arguing with that person.

Thanks.
 
And just to reiterate 101 of climate change

Climate ain't weather

The reality that you never seem to have gone past this fact perhaps underpins your inability/unwillingness to come to terms with the big picture.

Logic 101:

A hoof ain't a horse, but no hoof, no horse.

Climate is made up of weather. Ignoring weather when discussing climate is rather stupid, though single weather events, or single anomalous seasons/years may not be statistically relevant, but they do add to the empirical record of what is called climate.

BTW - Warm mongers aren't averse to citing weather events as support for their canon. They do it all the time.

Sorry.

That was the last time. :

I could point out that the person I was answering wasn't doing it either...


Global climate change, though, refers to the climate of the globe. It's cunningly hidden right there in the name. I've already explained to you that local conditions are exepcted to vary towards cold as well as hot. There's a long discussion about sea ice right there in the thread.

Adding up *all* the weather conditins *is* how they come up with the overall measurments of climate. How do you think they do it?

Do you just read enough to find a point you can contest? You're really not interested in the facts, are you? Just want to justify your prejudice.

Warm mongers aren't averse to citing weather events as support for their canon. They do it all the time.

Someone else does something idiotic, so it's ok if you do it too?

"Warm mongers", assuming they include anyone who believes that the people who know what they're talking about... know what they're talking about, consists of, at the very least, millions of people. There are going to be idiots in there. Which is why I'm quoting from the scientists who do NOT point to every local condition and hoot like chimps at an obelisk.

The media's representation of science is about as shallow and moronic as their coverage of finance. The fact that pollies and talking heads can't find their arses with both hands is hardly a revelation. And there are plenty of forum dwellers on both sides that don't have a clue.

Copying their idiocy does not win you points. Why do you keep doing it?
 
Meanwhile, on another planet far, far away (or so it may seem)...

What a horrible situation for these poor folk to be in. The forgotten people. What have we got to complain about?

To be brutally honest, when it comes to tin tacks these people might argue it's better to cope with possibly warmer temperatures with more lush growth in preference to freezing to death?

Sad.
 
As a slight divergence to the current back and forth.

For those that claimed "It's the Sun stupid" and hailed the extended solar minimum as the arrival of the next Maunder Minimum, you may be interested to know that Solar Cycle 24 is well underway and firmly established.

By your predictions we should see some significant warming as the current cycle builds to a peak.

Yes, Aussiejeff this is a very sad story and certainly depressed me greatly. They are such a hardy and independent race and don't deserve this.

The story trivialises the debate on these pages about a few degrees temperate change in decades ahead. What's happening in Mongolia is here and now to people with a tiny carbon footprint.
 
Yep which disaster scenario will unfold, global warming or the next ice age. I don't like the cold so here's to global warming. Personally I miss swine flu and meteorites, Y2K was pretty good too.

But we keep being told that weather is not climate, as if there is no link. It's a furphy designed to deflect the observations that contradict the ludicrous assertions of warm mongers.

Incorrect. When I see a ludicrous double standard, I feel I must point it out in the interests of developing better debate.

I must point out that that is something I haven't done in this thread. I merely point out the hypocrisy and duplicity of the warm mongers argument; that what warm mongers accuse rational sceptics of, is often they're own tactic. They criticise what they are most guilty of themselves.

Warm Mongers are those who adhere to the hypothesis of co2 based, catastrophic global warming, preach is as fact, or as settled science, in the face of evidence to the contrary, to the exclusion of all other hypotheses.

Warm Mongers are anti-scientific because they either spurn or corrupt the scientific process. We are seeing this is rampant via climategate and subsequent revelations.


I do not rely on the main stream media for my information any more than I rely on it for my financial information. In fact, the MSM (apart from the odd blogger) is almost universally pro AGM. I've lost count of the number of argumentative fallacies, mistruths and misrepresentations you have employed to prop up your emotional investiture in AGW. So really you are hoist by your own petard there.

If you have some deep emotional need to insult me directly, at least have the intellectual integrity to do so on the basis of fact, rather than the above.

As far as point scoring, as I said to sneak'n, if keeping some sort of pathetic score and deluding yourself that you are winning them by continuously playing the man, is important to your scarcely existent self-esteem, then I am happy for you to claim points.

I am only interested in the truth, plus having a bit of a laugh arguing with some delusional zealot unable to break free from a raging confirmation bias on the Internet.
 
That article was written in August 2008 whilst the solar minimum was occurring. The commencement of cycle 24 surely invalidates the bulk of that articles conclusions. Though, it will be interesting to see if William Livingstone is correct in predicting that "the sunspots will all but vanish in 2015".

Although a quick scan of recent stories reveal that the worm is turning. As the IPCC continues to lose credibility, journalists begin to become more willing to step outside of the AGW mantra.
 

Ppphhheeww.... no need to get the thermal underwear out yet then. How exactly do they predict sunspot activity (and if it will vanish) anyway?

They have been measuring the characteristics of the sunspots from between 1990 and 2005 and have noticed that the dark bits of the sunspots are getting warmer and the strength of the magnetic perturbations that produce the sunspots are becoming weaker. This measured warming of sunspots and weakening of the magnetic field are independent of the sunspot cycle. When they join the dots sunspots will not be able to form in 2015.

Thanks for the info derty.
 
I could challenge you to find a single instance in this thread where I have played the man, as you put it. The "point" you conceded in this specific instance was that the example you tendered was in fact the opposite of your contention. It was a gracious concession.
Whereas, I have challenged you to provide a justification for several of your claims and your response is to find another reason not to.
I have also challenged you to present your take on the science, and you replied that it would take too long, initially, and then proclaimed contentment with your position.

Provide evidence please?

On topic, this thread remains devoid of any reasoned science that would give the initiator any pleasure.

Yes Wayne I agree. It becomes even more ridiculous when these same Screwtape scientific shapeshifters think it's practical for a grazier/stockman/farmer to trade-in the horse because of it's smelly emissions for a over-priced Prius with no brakes.

Because the horse's emissions are more dangerous to "life".

Anyway here's a vid of a horse named Hoof Hearted.

Climategate U-turn as scientist at centre of row admits: There has been no global warming since 1995

...Professor Jones also conceded the possibility that the world was warmer in medieval times than now – suggesting global warming may not be a man-made phenomenon.....​

Seems to be rather a strong case for legal intervention....Considering if the ludicrous copenhagen treaty had actually been signed by Rudd and other world leaders - we would be well and truly toast.

The excuse that Jones relies on is: "lack of organisation in the system had contributed to his reluctance to share data with critics". Utter rubbish - the amount of planning, funding, media and political bias to drive the whole planet to accept AGW has been undertaken with absolute precision. Why? To achieve the key goal - Signing of an international treaty to create a world government.
 
Anyone watch the a-pac channel?
They've been showing "Lord Monckton & Tim Lambert debate Climate Change in Sydney" hosted by Alan Jones all weekend.

First time I've seen a pro anthropogenic global warming scientist accept a televised debate.

I am disappointed it hasn't been shown on the major channels in prime time.

cheers
 

I agree that the Daily Mail reportage stinks. But it seems to be par for the course with climate change. We have been subject to the other side of the coin (apocalyptic scaremongering based on junk science and sensationalism) for many years now.

Credible sceptics have been no less misrepresented in the past.

Jones' explanations do not answer anything, rather, they prompt more questions. They do not seem honest. A competent barrister (which is who should be conducting cross-examination in a court of law) would have torn this to shreds.
