He has no way to know the prevailing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere 3 million years ago. No way to know how much volcanic activity was effecting the climate. No way to know the sunspot cycle.

The new science...It's up to us to prove his synopsis without backing to be wrong.

Ditto. A model is not science. It is a computer game.

Government grants are going to get harder and harder to obtain. Desperation is setting in. If you want a grant, you better be preaching what the ‘RAT politicians want to hear.

The Earth's temperature may be 30-50 percent more sensitive to atmospheric carbon dioxide

But it probably isn't. In fact, I'll bet money that the physics of CO2 haven't changed in the last 100, 1000, or 1,000,000 years.

The shrill screach of the idiot Warmists is becomming deafening as we encircle them with their own noose...


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Hmmm ... sounds like the kids in Bristol are no longer sharp as a crystal.

Or pistol. But they still can do the Bristol Stomp.

One might think the article below adds credence to the warmist claims. But consider this: This guy is a warmist, and his study shows that the warmist models are wildly off. If they didn’t get them right before, what makes anyone think they’re right this time? They are literally making this stuff up as they go along, and every time there is an opportunity to validate the models, they’re wrong.

But of course. Everything is a crisis.
Speed is a necessity towards the solution.

More fraud.

What is up? Al Gore said the earth had a fever? he never mentioned the earth being hypersensitive to CO2, is this in the health care bill?

The results show that components of the Earth's climate system that vary over long timescales – such as land-ice and vegetation – have an important effect on this temperature sensitivity, but these factors are often neglected in current climate models.

Given that all of the Global Circulation Models (GCM) have consistently failed to predict changes in the Earth's climate, overestimating the rise in temperatures in every instance; I find this assertion a little hard to swallow.

The lies are rising in direct proportion to their exposure.
The cure for the compulsive fraud of the fraudsters is the liar habit of the lies that bit them. They just can’t get enough of fraud; they’ve got to have more.

Earth more sensitive to carbon dioxide than previously thought

But only when using the "value added" "enhanced" temperature data trend...

You would think these people would be embarrassed now that the cat is out of the bag. Couldn't they stop the story?

All these articles were in the works before climategate, therefore any peer review process was biased in the AGW direction, by explicit exclusion of any skeptical point of view. That should be a disclaimer attached to any such publication like Roger Maris’ asterisk, and with far greater reason.

"This led us to review what was missing from the model."

Oh!. Pick Me!!! I know: Your intelligence and credibility.

Dear God! This means we only have three years to live. Quick, raise our taxes, please, before it’s too late.

Yes. When taxes rise above the projected see level rise then all will be well.

Don’t trust any new studies released within 6 months of Copenhagen!!

thus these models do not entirely represent the sensitivity of the Earth's temperature to carbon dioxide.

Who has the heart to break this news to Harry?
