Just another way for Obama to attack Texas and other places he can’t control.

I wish he would “pivot” back to that rat hole of Chicago where slithered out of.

‘If things continue as they have been, in five years, at the latest, we will need to acknowledge that something is fundamentally wrong with our climate models.

...
J Bryan Kramer writes of this interview with IPCC lead author Hans Van Storch in SPIEGEL.

Interview conducted by Olaf Stampf and Gerald Traufetter

Climate experts have long predicted that temperatures would rise in parallel with greenhouse gas emissions. But, for 15 years, they haven’t. In a SPIEGEL interview, meteorologist Hans von Storch discusses how this “puzzle” might force scientists to alter what could be “fundamentally wrong” models....

...
SPIEGEL: Just since the turn of the millennium, humanity has emitted another 400 billion metric tons of CO2 into the atmosphere, yet temperatures haven’t risen in nearly 15 years. What can explain this?

Storch: So far, no one has been able to provide a compelling answer to why climate change seems to be taking a break. We’re facing a puzzle. Recent CO2 emissions have actually risen even more steeply than we feared. As a result, according to most climate models, we should have seen temperatures rise by around 0.25 degrees Celsius (0.45 degrees Fahrenheit) over the past 10 years. That hasn’t happened. In fact, the increase over the last 15 years was just 0.06 degrees Celsius (0.11 degrees Fahrenheit) — a value very close to zero....

I've got about 20 to donate.

I now cut 'em up with a Sawzall and throw 'em out otherwise.

And does he want the American people to stop exhaling?

Since the dawn of time petty Dictators, Emperors, Kings and Queens, Tzar's and Politicians of all stripes have dreamed taxing everything under the sun, including the air that you breathe.

Not quite there yet, but getting close.

Carbon? The world is made of carbon. Carbon is one of those essential building blocks.

Carbon is an essential building block of life. Obama hates life. He supports the culture of death.

Obama is going to hit the fossil fuel industry hard because all his lefty environmental supporter are disappointed with the lack of a down right ban on the Keystone Pipeline and then the NSA scandal. They feel that Obama let them down. This is going to be his way to try to win them back.
