Unmistakable signs of a warming world (pick it apart)

Scientific evidence that our world is warming is unmistakable has been released today in the ‘2009 State of the Climate’ report, issued by US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The report draws on data from 10 key climate indicators that all point to that same finding — the world is warming.

The 10 indicators of temperature have been compiled by the Met Office Hadley Centre, drawing on the work of more than 100 scientists from more than 20 institutions. They provide, in a one place, a snapshot of our world and spell out a single conclusion that the climate is unequivocally warming.

Relying on data from multiple sources, each indicator proved consistent with a warming world.

Well, in Northern Ohio we have had 11 of 28 days 90 or above. Usually we get only a couple all summer. Only 4 days all month below normal, and only by a few degrees.

Many recent summers we ran the air maybe 2 or 3 days all summer. This month it has been on a lot. About 5 years worth. Just got the electric bill today. Ouch!

So, for everyone who can say they are cooler, someone else can say they are hotter.

Just the movement of one point can make a huge difference (example: Chicago’s official recording from Midway Airport in 1960 to O’Hare, makes a big difference ——any Chicagoan can tell you summertime readings at O’Hare are usually about 5 degrees warmer than Midway).

OK, it is warmer than it was 14,000 years ago.

Is the data the graphs are based on available to anyone who wants to look at it?

Are computer models involved in ANY of the data underlying these graphs?
Is any of the data from the discredited sources proven to be fraudulent at "universities" worldwide?

Do any of the sources make the leap from cyclical global warming to Anthropogenic global warming?
Has anyone found a trick to prove that CO2 is a pollutant which actually contributes to global warming?

Are the providers of data still trying to sell imaginary "carbon credits?"

Why am I wasting time going through all the lies and "I need another grant" frauds?

[Publius6961]

The ranges shown on the graphs are very, very small. A few selective data choices could easily make it look however you wanted.

The doofuses with the drug-addled brains think everyone has forgotten the "Little Ice Age! (1300-1870)"

And if they leave it out of their graphs nobody will bring it up.

Today's kindergtarten lesson :

Weather = scores of years

Climate = hundreds of years. Even 5-yr-olds can understand it.

It's no coincidence that the main temperature scales that show such a dramatic rise begin in 1850. The Earth was coming out of a Little Ice Age after the Maunder sunspot minimum. ANY temps would look like warming.

The most interesting information is the fact that even with CO2 amounts having risen over the last 10 years, there has actually been COOLING occuring during that time.
An inconvenient truth, to be sure.
