      Haters? Really? So if there is clearly bad science in the quoted opinion, and someone notices it and points it out, they are haters??

        Enh, I'm usually interested to see the debates on it here, especially when you're involved.

          And the world is more than 1.5 degrees F warmer. And the sea levels are about 3.6 inches higher, though that is a global average. In some oarts of florida, for instance, it is about 8 inches.

            Well no. Not I but ninety-seven percent of climate scientists agree that climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human activities, and most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position. I would have thought it behooves us to take the warnings seriously. Why take the risk?

              First of all, temperature variations have been a perfectly normal part of the Earth's climate ever since God said, "Let there be light." Throughout its long history, the Earth has been both much warmer and much cooler than it is now. It's nothing to be alarmed about. So with those "inconvenient truths" in mind, tell me: What is the Earth's "correct" temperature?

              Secondly, your claim of 1.5 degrees warmer is based on fraudulently manipulated data as I showed in an earlier link.

              https://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/...rature-record/

              According to NASA's original data, the Earth was significantly warmer in the 1930s than it is today, and they said, "Empirical evidence does not lend much support to the notion that climate is headed precipitately toward more extreme heat and drought." But that didn't fit the left's agenda, so the data was "adjusted" to change a clear cooling tend into a warning trend.

              And that, of course, is not the only time government agencies have been caught red-handed corrupting temperature data.

              And on and on it goes.

              If someone tells you that the science is "settled", yet they keep having to "adjust" the facts to fit their hypothesis, then you know you're being conned.

              Sleep soundly, Chicken Little, the sky isn't falling.

                      It's the old mantra of "Weather is not climate!" Unless it seems to support global warming, and then they crow about it from the rooftops that their junk science has been validated.

                        Oh, how long is that history? You think it was 6000 years right?

                        Is there something specifically about he climate change issue that has triggered your conspiracy/anti-science tendencies, or do you just like to be anti-science/anti-facts across the board on all issues?

                        the Earth has been both much warmer and much cooler than it is now. It's nothing to be alarmed about.
                        Not during periods where humans have existed. We're facing both more rapid temperature change and more total temperature change than our species has ever survived previously.

                        So with those "inconvenient truths" in mind, tell me: What is the Earth's "correct" temperature?
                        The correct global temperatures so far as human civilization is concerned are current temperatures because our cities and farms and land have organized and developed with those in mind. Any significant temperature change will come at a huge economic and social cost as society will have to reorganize its food supply, infrastructure, etc to adapt to the new climate.

                        Secondly, your claim of 1.5 degrees warmer is based on fraudulently manipulated data as I showed in an earlier link.
                        Why do you read and believe and post such garbage? Do you want to link us to flat earthers claiming the spherical nature of the earth is fraudulent?

                        And that, of course, is not the only time government agencies have been caught red-handed corrupting temperature data.

                        They don't "corrupt" data. The original data is still available for all to see and use. Over time they've spotted and corrected a few minor calibration errors in the historical data caused when old weather stations were replaced or new ones added. So people can see the more accurate and carefully calibrated data or see the original data if they wish. It doesn't change anything relevant.

                        "The animation above shows four versions of GISS 1930-1999 US temperatures
                        Do you know why it's called GLOBAL warming? Because the temperature average across the entire earth is increasing. The US is less than 2% of the total earth's surface and subject to huge variations. US-only temperature data, being <2% of global temperature data isn't particularly interesting or relevant when considering the overall trends.

                        If someone tells you that the science is "settled", yet they keep having to "adjust" the facts to fit their hypothesis, then you know you're being conned.
                        I can't quite tell if you're uber-gullible or a con-artist. Or possibly both. I hope at least they're paying you decently in exchange for spreading their manure.

                              Ah, so it's the genetic fallacy, is it? Doesn't matter who is invoking "consensus", telling people not to question a hypothesis is as unscientific as it gets. As the saying goes, "Don't show me the consensus, show me the facts!"

                              Besides, Michael Critchon was a medical doctor with as good an understanding of the scientific method as anybody.

                              As for the report you mention, look a few posts above. As usual, I'm two steps ahead of you.

                              At any rate, that the Earth's climate is constantly changing is really not a point of dispute. That's just a perfectly normal and natural phenomenon that has been happening since Creation. What we don't have evidence for is that the changes are catastrophic or influenced in any significant way by human activity. In fact, we have quite a lot of evidence to the contrary.
