Panel Says Global Warming Risks Sudden, Deep Changes
New York Times ^ | December 3, 2013 | By JUSTIN GILLIS

Continued global warming poses a risk of rapid, drastic changes in some human and natural systems, a scientific panel warned Tuesday, citing the possible collapse of polar sea ice, the potential for a mass extinction of plant and animal life and the threat of immense dead zones in the ocean.

“The reality is that the climate is changing,” said James W. C. Wanker, a paleoclimatologist at the University of Colorado Boulder who headed the committee on abrupt impacts of climate change. “It’s going to continue to happen, and it’s going to be part of everyday life for centuries to come — perhaps longer than that.”

So a paleoclimatologist looks across the centuries into the ancient past and concludes that the climate is going to change over the next few centuries, AND MAYBE LONGER.

This guy is really sticking his neck out.

“The reality is that the climate is changing,” said James W. C. Wanker...

The reality is that climate has ALWAYS been changing, Wanker, that's why we have had so many ice ages and interglacial periods.

Do you think that now that you have arrived climate is supposed to stop changing?

Yep, looks like a “wanker”. Good theory, well written, well presented, but scientifically, an “F” because of a total lack of facts.

It would be funny if this charade was not costing us so much money and so many jobs. It’s the new version of public theft - they create “green jobs” that put green in the pockets of politicians and their cronies.

“Continued global cooling poses a risk of rapid, drastic changes in our phony baloney jobs, a pseudo-scientific panel warned Tuesday, citing the possible collapse of federal funding, the potential for career stagnation and the threat of immense numbers of unemployed academicians selling pencils on the street.

“The reality is that we may be facing charges of science fraud,” said James W. C. “Whatta” Wanker, a neuroproctologist at the University of Colorado Boulder who headed the committee on abrupt impacts of having to earn their pay by actually teaching, instead of just mooching.

I just turned my A/C back on tonight. Won’t need it for the heat until tomorrow, but it’s darn humid tonight. When you’ve had enough of that white stuff, we need all the right wing voters we can get in FL.

EVERYTHING is caused by globull warming.

You realize if the goreball warming cultists say everything is caused by it, then that makes globull warming the lib/commie deity. Ayn Rand would explain it a little differently as she would say that one is applying this junk science in a totalitarian fashion where everything is this junk science and we must all bow to it. Even that crazy scientist Lysenko didn't say that everything was vernalization (his junk science theory on agriculture) when he spouted his nonsense to Stalin.
