Mark’s Nature Trick


NSIDC Turning tricks?

NSIDC shows Greenland melting out of control, far above average this summer.

This makes no sense, because NCEP maps have showed Greenland temperatures well below normal this summer.

Now lets look at the DMI graph of the same thing. DMI shows Greenland melting well below normal this summer.

Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Mass Budget: DMI

How did Mark Serreze’s NSIDC team pull off their Greenland nature trick?  They included the cold 1980’s in their average, which was the coldest decade on record in that region.

ScreenHunter_1676 Aug. 04 23.52

There was essentially no melting that decade, which dragged the mean line way down. More evidence of why DMI is a better reference than NSIDC. DMI doesn’t have a global warming agenda. The NSIDC graph is extremely misleading, no doubt by design.

Mark’s Nature Trick (Part 2)


What else can they do they don’t have science or logic on their side!

Mark Serreze calls me “breathtakingly ignorant.”

The red circle shows the year when NSIDC starts their Arctic sea ice graphs. The mother of all cherry picks.

A Trivial Proof That Mann-Made Global Warming Has Had No Impact On Sea Level


Hey this is way better than a couple of old tree ring samples!

Tony Heller's avatarReal Climate Science

This proof is so simple, that even a climate scientist couldn’t understand it.

Sea level at Manhattan has been rising at a steady rate since the start of records in the 1850’s. The rate of rise has not accelerated or decelerated over the past 160 years.

The hockey stick doesn’t start until 1910, yet the sea level rise rate was essentially identical before and after the hockey stick. This tells us that there is no correlation between GISS temperatures and sea level. One station is adequate for this analysis, because melting glaciers would raise sea level more or less equally at all locations.

ScreenHunter_1668 Aug. 04 20.52

The graph below plots Manhattan sea level rise rates (9 year slope) vs. GISS  5 year mean global temperature anomaly. Again, there is no correlation between sea level rise rates and GISS temperatures. The fastest decline in sea level occurred near the highest temperature anomaly.

Antarctic Sea Ice Extent Aug 4 2014 – 1,231,000 sq km Above Normal – 137th Daily Record


There has to be a mistake Gore said it would be free of ice this year and got the Nobel for that — do they take it back now?

sunshinehours1's avatarsunshine hours

Antarctic Sea Ice Extent is 1,231,000 sq km above the 1981-2010 mean. That is the 137th daily record for the year.

140,000 sq km increase in the last day is pretty awesome.

Climate Alarmists Never Quit!


We know all government fib so why would climate work be any different?

Cartoon -- Global Warming LiesIn the same way Americans are discovering that the Cold War that was waged from the end of World War Two until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 is not over, Americans continue to be subjected to the endless, massive, global campaign to foist the hoax of global warming–now called climate change—on everyone.

The campaign’s purpose to convince everyone that it is humans, not the sun, oceans, and other natural phenomenon, and that requires abandoning fossil fuels in favor of “renewable” wind and solar energy.

“It is not surprising that climate alarmists, who desire above all else blind allegiance to their cause, would demand all school teachers toe the ‘official party line’ and quash any dissent on the subject of man-made global warming in their classroom,” says Craig Rucker, the Executive Director of co-founder of the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT). “What…

Climate Science Wrong For 120 Years


Hey they will eventually get it right!

Tory Aardvark's avatarTory Aardvark

Climate Science predicted in 1895 a new ice age, by 1902 the glaciers were melting and by 1912 the ice age was back. Climate Science predicted in 1895 a new ice age, by 1902 the glaciers were melting and by 1912 the ice age was back.

Predicting the end of the world is part of the human condition, people have always been convinced Doomsday was just around the corner. From the soothsayers of Roman times casting their runes and reading animal entrails predicting global apocalypse to the soothsayersclimate scientists soothsayers of the 21st Century casting their digital runes and predicting global apocalypse.

Despite the passage of 20 Centuries the modern day rune casters are no more accurate than their distant ancestors were, the expensive and religiously revered “Computer Models” have yet to predict any event that has actually happened, yet their erroneous results still trump observed empirical evidence.

The Climate Change catastrophe is not a new phenomenon, it first appeared as we know it today in the closing years of…

New paper from Nic Lewis on climate sensitivity corrects ‘prior’ errors in an IPCC AR4 reference


Well we know the numbers they use 1.5 C to 4.5 C with a mean of 3.0 C that they got for the 1979 Charney Report is way off. From what I can determine its under 1.0C

Cold is lethal, cool is toxic, and the warming fanatics talk about catastrophe from warming?


Warm is definitely better … no matter the reason!

I gave a lecture on warming human health effects at the 2014 Heartland Climate Change conference in Las Vegas.

Warm is good for living things and we should hope these clowns are right and that the planet is goin’ to warm, but we can’t trust them because they can’t keep their promises.

Capture the Sun & Power America With Solar – Is There a Business Case?


Good work I ran the numbers myself a few years ago and came to the same conclusions. Add one thing to this and solar panels are black and absorb energy (of course) so large numbers of them will change the planets albedo.

Smoking Guns Of Climate Fraud At The US Government


Hey just turn the Chart upside down and and all we be OK.

Tony Heller's avatarReal Climate Science

NOAA and NASA say that Earth is the hottest on record, yet the amount of sea ice on Earth is the highest since 1996, and the sixth highest on record. Polar amplification is a fundamental tenet of global warming theory, which means the people putting out this propaganda are defrauding the public.

The other fundamental tenet of global warming theory is that the mid-troposphere will warm faster than the surface. Satellites show that the lower to mid-troposphere was much warmer during other years, so once again another smoking gun of fraud at NOAA/NASA.
