A great rebuttal. Another nail in the coffin of AGW. Soon, all that will be left is (hopefully) punishment of the guilty in academia, journalism, government, and NGOs.

I read a report that the cold wave in Europe this winter was actually caused by melting of the Arctic Ocean causing changes in cold weather patterns bringing the big chill down toward the south. This is so complicated.

The ‘weather’, or ‘climate patterns’ have always changed.
They always will.
Nothing we can do will ever stop them from changing.
You either adapt (and survive), or you don’t (and die).

In the meantime, life will continue on. Even in places with the most severe weather, life continues.

Penguins even make it a habit to trek 70 miles , with no food, to the coldest and most ‘uninhabitable’ place on the planet, just to give birth.

Surely humans can deal with the ‘average’ temperature changing by 1 or 2 degrees per century.

What will likely kill us all is the idiots who lust for power and wealth beyond need. THAT is the real problem.

If looking for more nails for the AGW coffin, the following should be the burial vault, crypt, sarcophagi, sepulcher all wrapped into one and carefully wrapped up and mummified and buried in a massive pyramid.

Examining the projections for cycle 25 sunspots, spanning over the next few decades, we are headed to much colder temperatures to rival anything seen in hundreds of years (covering the Dalton minimum, and rivaling the Maunder minimum of the 1600's). Note how the PEAK of cycle 25, still a decade away, is expected not not even reach the LOW of the "hot cycles" from the warm periods (cycles 20 thru 23). I hate to be the Anti-AGW alarmist, but lack of almost ANY sunspots means frigid temperatures. We are going to need to burn, and as inefficiently and expansive-carbon-footprintish as possible, all our fossil fuels to stave off the next ice age to grow our crops.

What liberal organizations like Union of Concerned Scientists are just starting to realize is that if the left’s own global warming hysteria is to be accepted as official energy policy, we would need an immediate crash program to build hundreds of nuclear reactors. The priority would be on replacing all coal-fired generating capacity.

An absolute Show Stopper for the AGW CULT!

Trenberth et al. tell us that the managements of major national academies of science have said that "the science is clear, the world is heating up and humans are primarily responsible." Apparently every generation of humanity needs to relearn that Mother Nature tells us what the science is, not authoritarian academy bureaucrats or computer models.

Better put some ice on that.
