The ancient priests of Egypt had the advantage in that they could accurately predict eclipses, the solstices, and such.
The overall trend is up - but the upward trend has stalled - thus the need to use a “trick” to “hide the decline”.
30 years ago these same guys were predicting a coming Ice Age.
That was also supposedly all our fault.

I am staggered by the ignorance of mathematics and the assumption on the part of these "scientists" that their hearers are equally stupid evidenced by making an assertion about the first derivative of a measurement ("global warming" means dT/dt > 0, where T is mean annual global temperature and t is time, say since 1900 in years), while offering as evidence for the assertion the statement that 86 ≤ t ≤ 111 implies T(t) > T̅, where T̅ is the mean value of T(t) for 0 ≤ T ≤ 100.

One might note that the average temperature at ground level is significantly different than the average temperature 20,000 above that spot.
Just exactly where do they stick that giant rectal probe ?
The Earth’s climate goes through changes where the EXTREMES are higher. The end result is that the average stays the same.
Most claims of the ‘average’ getting higher or lower (in recent times) are based more on the location of the measuring equipment than anything else.

The ancient priests of Egypt had the advantage...Because they had the knowledge, and the working/slave class did not. And because they didn't have the internet.
The alarmist claims of the AGW crowd are based on the same concept. They know it all, and everyone else is just ignorant and needs to be saved. All they require is a sacrifice of....

Apparently they missed the memo stating that there hasn't been any warming since at least 1995.

Go back 20,000 years, and we are way way above average now, like 6 C or more! Depends on what you pick for your interval. Go back a million years and we are way below average.

“Indeed, the global temperature has been warmer than the 20th century average every month for more than 25 years”
And it was probably colder than the average for 25 years, too. What’s yer point?

We were at Mammoth Lakes (CA) yesterday—it was snowing at Twin Lakes—at about 8-9k feet. I’ve been to Mammoth many, many summers and I’ve never seen it snow in June before. They say the snow pack is at 300% of normal.

About l987 there was a big article in National Geographic about the coming ice age. Don’t know why I kept it, but am glad I did. Then in l989 National Geographic came out with an article about global warming.

Carbon dioxide increased by 2.60 parts per million in the atmosphere in 2010, which is more than the average annual increase seen from 1980-2010, Karl added. Carbon dioxide is the major greenhouse gas accumulating in the air that atmospheric scientists blame for warming the climate.
Hey, Karl, you effing moron. Atmospheric CO2 is not a temperature proxy.

Data? We don't need no steekin' data, faked or otherwise!
the Mets principle research scientist John Mitchell told us: People underestimate the power of models. Observational evidence is not very useful, adding, Our approach is not entirely empirical.

I’m scared. Who do I give my money too for my salvation from this evil? Who do I need to give power too, who do I need to give my money too in order to cure us of this infliction? :)

"It is very likely that large-scale changes in climate, such as increased moisture in the atmosphere and warming temperatures, have influenced and will continue to influence many different types of extreme events, such as heavy rainfall, flooding, heat waves and droughts. Well, I'd say that about covers it. Why do they need funding if they already know what it will do?

The world's climate is not only continuing to warm Yeah, big whoop. These things happen over the millennia.
it is also adding heat-trapping greenhouse gases even faster than in the past...
Or, conversely, if temperatures were to rise, the sea water would release some of the dissolved CO2.
The indicators show unequivocally that the world continues to warm...
Not even sure that I believe that, regardless of cause.
Carbon dioxide increased by 2.60 parts per million in the atmosphere in 2010
So, we're supposed to be worried about a benign gas whose totals are measured in hundredths of a percent?
...scientists blame for warming the climate.
What kind of scientists...Scamologists?
