Chicken little had no facts, but it never stopped its cries either. The only reason Global Warming ever got a microphone is Al Gore figured out how to get rich from giving it a voice.

Silly conservatives,
accepting leftist reasons for doing anything
at face value.

I was taught that sun spots happen in 17 year cycles and that is what causes temps to change. It can vary from 11 years to 17 years to go full cycle. They proved it over several years watching sunspot activity and temps.

I learned this in middle school and I'm 61 years old. It seems science is always learning something "new" and "different". When I got married in the 70's, we were supposed to freeze to death within a decade.

The other thing I learned was socialists cause panic, then offer to fix things with taxes. When you pay the taxes, they run your life. The carbon tax is just an excuse to control people with their own money. The EPA, or endangered species act, and others are just a method of control and to raise unlimited amounts of funds to buy what they want. They have effectively destroyed public education by bribing us with 7% of our own money. Tell them to jam their 7% Federal subsidy and the insanity would slowly end. As the control migrated closer to the homeowner, we might not be sending kids home with pop tart guns. Maybe we could teach that the sun warms the earth again and keep your panties up and you won't need an abortion.

Why the stall in warming? According to The Economist, maybe we’ve overestimated the warming impact of clouds. Or maybe some clouds cool instead of warm the planet. Or maybe the oceans are absorbing heat from the atmosphere.

Or maybe it's that big yellow thing up there.

The world hasn’t warmed since 1933.

We have had a decline in all but two years in the period since.

The 'cause' is not global warming, the 'cause' is for governments and bureaucracies to rob wealth from the people to fund their parasitic lifestyle. 'Global Warming' happened to be a convenient cause at the time. If not, it would have been something else (the Next Ice Age?). There will a Carbon Tax - data be damned.
The Government needs to eat and grow - so pay up you peasants.

I should also add (to #9), that this propaganda would have been easily exposed by a functioning Press. Instead, our Media is supportive of large Socialist Governments and the confiscation and redistribution of wealth - so they have no problem in pushing the Global Warming meme, and covering their eyes and ears to contrary data. This, and on a personal level, most of them probably buy into a ‘Man bad, Mother Earth Good’ sort of ‘religion’.

Remember all the reports that “weather stations” were placed in areas that were warmer than the surrounding area in defiance or ignorance of established standards, which for decades gave “hot” reports?

Ever remember hearing were any of that bad data was thrown out and Globull Warming was adjusted accordingly? No.

This “Over the past 15 years air temperatures at the Earth’s surface have been flat” obviously is due to those weather stations being corrected and the “Warmers” dare not admit anything regarding them as that would erase even more of their bogus data.

We are seeing the disappearance of this Globull Warming horsehockey. It won’t be long before Flim-Flam algore will be running a new scam. Maybe it won’t be long before clogged arteries will do the world a favor.

The “solutions” are always the same.

If this does get widely rejected, which I don’t see happening in the near future,
they’ll find another problem and apply the exact same solutions.

The solutions do seem to end up filling some pockets.

What I never understood about the likes of algore, once you have more money than you can ever spend, what is the point of continuing the scams? Algore surely understands he will never ever be elected to anything again.

As someone so right named it “watermelon”, green on the outside, red in the middle. I do think a lot of “commy socialists” saw that they could not gain support by plain politics and had to latch on to a common human interest theme like “the environment”.

Like most scams, they eventually fade away because even the sheeple finally grow tired of the ever louder and more outrageous “sideshow” hawking.

When it’s hotter than usual somewhere, it’s global warming. When it’s colder than usual somewhere, it’s global warming. /s

Although I believe most of the public is 'warming' up to the fact that this man-cause Global Warming hysteria is a farce -- the Government(s) are still going to use it as an excuse to raise taxes or fees. Like I said, data be damned -- they want the money and they are going to take it.

Eventually even the government will be stopped, one way or the other.

Climate science
A sensitive matter

The Economist essay was linked. It's worth the read and wide dissemination. The Economist was always hawking global warming alarmism!

There is another possibility. The temperature stations that were intentionally sited in specifically warmed locations, biased what was a neutral or slightly rising temperature period (1990's to 2005) into an extremely rising one. And now that they are reading that temperatures have been recently steady (2005-present), they have actually been falling dramatically.
