Beam me to Planet Gore !

Treadmill ping.
Our data is off. We don’t know where we stand. We really have no idea what’s going on. All we can say for sure is that Cap and Trade is necessary, or we will all be dead in 7 years.
More difficult? You couldn't do it before...because you don't know what you're talking about. The Earth is such an impossibly complex system, that all your little models are like ancient maps of the Earth-centered universe. Curious, but baseless. Stop pushing your inadequate theories and climate fantasies as science.
Nobody knows the troubles I’ve seen.
Please don't destroy their pristine habitat by drilling for filthy oil!
Our friends at the Discovery Institute knew this all along - the existing model didn’t acknowledge the Almighty.
O’l Al Gore is going to have to remove another slide in his “ An Inconvenient Truth” Power Point presentation. Another year of study and there won’t be any slides left.
All models are wrong; some are more useful than others.
The most serious inconvenient truth is that Algored is a wanker who, thanks to contact lenses, didn’t have to wear eyeglasses.
Climate scientists are lost, but Al Gore is still right: “the science is settled”.
used a modeling program to simulate the launch and dispersal of more than 7,000 virtual “efloats” from the same starting point.
“That way we could send out many more floats than we can in real life, for a longer period of time,” Lozier said.
Subjecting those efloats to the same underwater dynamics as the real ones, the researchers then traced where they moved. “The spread of the model and the RAFOS float trajectories after two years is very similar,” they reported.
What? Using the same dynamics, did they expect them to be different? I cannot understand the rational of some of these scientists.
Maybe the rationale is to be paid well for doing cool stuff.
We still don’t know what we’re talking about, but everyone is still doomed!
DOOOOOMED!
The familiar model of Atlantic ocean currents that shows a discrete "conveyor belt" of deep, cold water flowing southward from the Labrador Sea is probably all wet. New research led by Duke University and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution relied on an armada of sophisticated floats to show that much of this water, originating in the sea between Newfoundland and Greenland, is diverted generally eastward by the time it flows as far south as Massachusetts. From there it disburses to the depths in complex ways that are difficult to follow. A 50-year-old model of ocean currents had shown this southbound subsurface flow of cold water forming a continuous loop with the familiar northbound flow of warm water on the surface, called the Gulf Stream... And since cold Labrador seawater is thought to influence and perhaps moderate human-caused climate change, this finding may affect the work of global warming forecasters... Climatologists pay attention to the Labrador Sea because it is one of the starting points of a global circulation pattern that transports cold northern water south to make the tropics a little cooler and then returns warm water at the surface, via the Gulf Stream, to moderate temperatures of northern Europe.Fascinating, no? There's a description of this new research (turns out it's the first *actual* research ever done on this) which shows that the former belief system is wrong. Then one major part of that discredited belief system is regurgitated. Media shills striking again.

YOIKS!!
WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!
(Sorry. I just had to say that....and also, save the gay polar bears....or the killer orcas....or the emperor penguins....or the gay polar orcas who feed on the emperor....)
This will be a great disappointment to those wanting to shut down the conveyor belt to freeze out the Europeans.
So does this affect the theory of Thermohaline Circulation of the Oceans, which says that if the Ocean water gets too fresh the circulation to the south and back north ceases, bringinmg an ice age? The article does say that the water does circulate.
