Official Global Warming thread (merged)

Instrumental temperature record

Inb4 you argue that Greenland's temperature during the MWP represents global temperature, again...

How does the Medieval Warm Period compare to current global temperatures?

What does "above 2007 levels" mean? That is a meaningless term. I'm sure arctic ice extent today, January 13 2014, is greater than August 6 2007, and several other days that year.

What? He asked how carbon pricing works and I answered. Speaking of, here's a good interview with former south carolina congressman Bob Inglis that talks about border adjustments:

Q&A: The Conservative Case for a Carbon Tax

Ahead of UN climate summit, Republican Bob Inglis says the idea would lower other taxes.

The December 2014 arctic extent is above the 2005-2013 levels.

Bernie Sanders and Bart-like two peas in a pod:

MIT climate scientist Richard Lindzen slammed this week’s amendment introduced by Vermont socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders that would make it the official position of the Senate that man-made global warming is real and a threat. Lindzen said Sanders’s amendment to a bill that approves the Keystone XL pipeline an “attempt to hijack science for political purposes.” “Climate change is of course real; change being the normal state of affairs in climate,” Lindzen told Climate Depot. “Climate change has caused catastrophic problems on occasion throughout the earth’s history. While man may have contributed somewhat to climate change in recent years, his contribution to the above is highly questionable, and continues to be debated.” “In the case of Bernie Sanders, a socialist, he is undoubtedly dreaming about nationalizing the energy industry,” Lindzen said. “For the U.S. Senate to accept guidance from Sanders’ bizarre dreams is ludicrous.”

Behold, SandVol’s idea of a trend change

:facepalm:

Hey how about you fetch us that plot for January? And then the other 10 months? Let's see if we can find a trend.

we are Catholics, its always our (people's) fault. Go back and read some other Pope's statements, there have been some claiming we caused WWII/Hitler because we didn't do enough to oppose him. we have to feel guilty about something.

So is this a victory for the global warming crowd or is this just something smart to do?
Both.
BTW, send some global warming to OH. We are supposed to get up to 50 today and then back down to average for the next week. However, this is a climb out from the 0 to -5 for lows and teens to 20's for highs. I am over it. Just about ready to move back to K'town.
Crazy. Last week it was sunny and warm in Seattle, now it's cold and wet!

Y'all really struggle with the climate/weather thing...
