Hot Air: No Global Warming for Eight Years

It's almost like there's a giant heat source in space that hasn't been real active for a few years.

Oh you silly! That's why we call it climate change now. Didn't you get the message?

Let me fix this: Because we've fudged the data and put measuring stations in the worst possible places so they register high temperatures to prove out narrative thatglobull warming is real, temperatures have actually been falling the last 8 years.

There has certainly been global cooling this winter. We may only have 10 years left if something isn't done.

Be almost as skeptical of this claim as you are of the claims of global warming fanatics. It may be significant, or it may be selective cherry picking of long term data trends. However the less frequent hurricanes in itself should put the lie to a lot of the breathless claims of the global warming crowd.

Of course not, it's a SCAM. It is nohing real at all. Purely a Watermelon scam....Green on the outside Commie RED on the inside.

It actually quit going up for the first ten years at the turn of the century, and it's only raised 2 degrees F since the late 19th century. Plus, they closed reporting stations in rural areas and just kept those in cities where average temps are slightly warmer.

Meanwhile, Henney Penney still thinks the sky is falling.

Wow, lied to again by the environmentalists. Who could have predicted that?

What about Algore? He said the oceans were boiling.

The UN is way ahead of the game. They've already admitted it's capitalism that is causing Climate Change. Even the pert little Swede truant admits that.

I've been hearing about calamity since high school, nearly 50 years ago. Give it up.

Won't matter 1 bit to the "true believers". Global Warming is their only belief, reality and science be damned.

Has anyone told “12 years before we all die” AOC? Her meltdown at this news will be worse than the one she had in congress the other day.

Does this mean Greta can finally go home? And make me a samich?

Folks - - don't fall for these "good" Gullible Warming stories either. There is absolutely no way - - none whatsoever - - totally impossible - - to measure - - with statistically reliable accuracy - - the temperature of the entire globe. Anyone who publishes average Earth temperatures is a fraud. It can't be done - - so don't believe any of it - - even the "good" stuff.

What's the correct temperature for the earth?

I am still waiting for the “ecocalypse” promised for the past 50+ years. Crickets.

We will go up in a ball of fire of we allow these fools and or turn-coats to stay in Washington.

But the Blobal Blarming Mob is still beating their worn out Drum.

Not being a scientist, I don't know if poster 16 is correct in saying that we can't get a reasonable estimate of average annual global temperatures these days -- possibly with satellites. However, many reports and articles say that temperatures today are hotter than the 20th century average. How many thermometers did scientists have across the vast Pacific in 1901? How many of those were constantly recording, and sending their info to a collecting lab? Maybe 10? How many did scientists have in Antarctica in 1913? Probably none. How many in the middle of Africa in 1927? Maybe 3? So, there had to be huge gaps of space and time and accuracy in that 20th century average. I try, but I just can't understand how scientists can talk about a 20th century average annual global temperature. Can someone help me out with this?

Remember when every Greenie out there was going off the deep end about fracking? Fracking was poisoning water, causing earthquakes, etc without any evidence and yet, dead whales wishing up on beaches along NY, etc and silence.

THE MAN WHO INVENTED ‘CLIMATE CHANGE’ “Rich countries must pay to solve the crisis they created” “The U.N. should become a World Government” China and India – the world’s first and third largest “CO2 emitters” – have not the slightest intention of curbing their emissions. To this day, global climate policy is still shaped by the agenda of Maurice Strong, a Canadian multimillionaire. A very odd thing happened last weekend. The death was announced of the man who, in the past 40 years, has arguably been more influential on global politics than any other single individual. Yet the world scarcely noticed. Had it not been for this man, we would not last week have seen 150 heads of government joining 40,000 delegates in Paris for that mammoth climate conference: the 21st such get-together since, in 1992, he masterminded the Rio “Earth Summit”, the largest political gathering in history. Yet few people even know his name. "During the Second World War, having emerged from humble origins in the Great Depression, Strong became convinced that the new United Nations should become a world government" Some years back, when I was researching for a book called The Real Global Warming Disaster, charting how the late-20th-century panic over climate change came about, few things surprised me more than to discover the absolutely central role played in the whole story by a Canadian socialist multimillionaire, Maurice Strong. During the Second World War, having emerged from humble origins in the Great Depression, Strong became convinced that the new United Nations should become a world government, dedicated to ensuring that the wealth enjoyed by the richer countries of the West should be spread out around the world’s underprivileged majority. In the Sixties, having become very rich himself from Canada’s oil industry, Strong came to see that the key to his vision was “environmentalism”, the one cause the UN could harness to make itself a truly powerful world government. A superb political operator, in 1972 he set up a UN “Environment Conference” in Stockholm, to declare that the Earth’s resources were the common inheritance of all mankind. They should no longer be exploited for the benefit of only a few countries, at the expense of poorer countries across the globe.

A superb political operator, in 1972 he set up a UN “Environment Conference” in Stockholm, to declare that the Earth’s resources were the common inheritance of all mankind. They should no longer be exploited for the benefit of only a few countries, at the expense of poorer countries across the globe. To pursue this, he became founding director of a new agency, the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), and in the Eighties he took up the cause Maurice Strong: He established the UN’s environmental agenda of Environment Programme (UNEP), a tiny group of international meteorologists who had come to believe believe that the world faced catastrophic warming. In 1988, UNEP sponsored this little group into setting up the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). In 1992, now allied with the IPCC, Strong pulled off his greatest coup when he set up another new body, the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), to stage that colossal “Earth Summit” over which he presided in Rio, arranging for it to be attended not only by 108 world leaders and 100,000 others but also by 20,000 UN-funded “green activists”. It is the UNFCCC which in effect has dictated the global climate change agenda ever since. Almost yearly it has staged huge conferences, notably those at Kyoto (1997), Copenhagen (2009) and the present one in Paris. And all along it has been Strong’s ideology, enshrined at Rio in “Agenda 21”, which has continued to shape the entire process, centred on the principle that the richer developed countries must pay for a problem they created, to the financial benefit of all those “developing countries” that have been its main victims. In 2005, Strong was caught having been illicitly paid $1 million from the UN’s Oil for Food programme, supposedly set up to allow Saddam Hussein to pay in oil to feed starving Iraqis. He retired to a flat in Beijing, where he had been close to China’s Communist leaders back to Mao. It was from there that he returned home to Canada to die, on November 27. "Strong’s dream is more than ever falling apart" To this day, global climate policy is still shaped by Strong’s Agenda 21, as was highlighted last February when Christiana Figueres, the Costa Rican Marxist now head of the UNFCCC and organiser of the Paris conference, urged that the West should give “$1 trillion a year” to he “developing” world. But the wonderful irony is that the reason why Paris will fail, like Copenhagen before it, is that those “developing countries”, led by China and India – now the world’s first and third largest “CO2 emitters” – have not the slightest intention of curbing their emissions. It is for the West to do that, for creating “the problem”. Thus, just as he died, Strong’s dream is more than ever falling apart – thanks to those very countries his socialist vision was intended to help.
