Poor, Deluded Alarmists Don't Have Any Real Targets To Hit Back At [Sob ..]





The problem the alarmists had, was that there was never anything substantial
to hit back at.



They had the equivalents of the big guns and the massive air support but
there never was a skeptic HQ to be pounded, no big central organization, no
massed ranks of skeptic soldiers or even any third-party backing the
resistance.



Every one of the skeptics was a lone volunteer guerrilla fighter, who needed
absolutely no logistical support of any kind to continue the fight
indefinitely.



The alarmists never understood this, preferring to think that there simply
had to be some massive hidden organization orchestrating the resistance.



While they wasted time and effort attacking targets that only existed in
their head, each of the guerrillas chewed on them mercilessly in their own
particular way.

That is a false claim.

The Decadal Land-Surface Average Temperature by the Berkley Earth Team
clearly shows warming.

a line of empirical evidence that human CO2 emissions are causing
global warming."


The following graph shows that since 1979 the amount of Arctic sea ice
measured in September each year has been declined at an average rate
of 12% per decade, with a faster decline since 1998.

Sorry it is correct.
No evidence for manmade CO2 warming.

Antarctic Temperatures Running Far Below Normal With Heavy Snowfall Greet
Foolhardy Trekkers



Shock News : Heavy Snow Is Associated With Cold!



Nove 19 2011





Temperatures are running far below normal in Antarctica, and they are having
the heaviest snowfall in years.



Meteorologists monitoring Antarctic conditions say it is the highest
snowfall in the region in years.



THEY'VE been on the ice less than three weeks but hell has already frozen
over for Aussie adventurers James Castrission and Justin Jones.



Nightmare winds, heavy snowfall and days of total white-out have turned what
was already a monumental challenge into an epic battle of will versus
weather.



The pair, who made world headlines three years ago after crossing the Tasman
in a kayak, are aiming to become the first people to trek 2200km from the
edge of the Antarctic to the South Pole and back, unassisted.

AND whatever happened to the "catastrophic" Greenland glacier retreat of
1940 then?







Greenland Glacier Retreat Is Near Catastrophic!





HERE IS THE IMAGE OF THE NEWSPAPER ARTICLE









HERE IS THE TEXT OF THE NEWSPAPER ARTICLE

Monday 6 May 1940



Greenland's Climate Becoming Milder

Is the Arctic climate becoming more temperate?

Remarkable new information given by the famous Swedish authority, Professor
H. W. Ahlmann in a lecture to the Swedish Geographical Society, suggests
that this may be the case.

Professor Ahlmann was speaking on the collated results of his expedition to
north-east Greenland, and he stated that the glaciers there showed clear
signs of a change towards a warmer climate.

As had been observed in other parts of the Arctic, especially in
Spitzbergen, the melting had increased rapidly.



By far the largest number of local glaciers in north-east Greenland had
receded very greatly during recent decades, and it would not be exaggerating
to say that these glaciers were nearing a catastrophe.





http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/40934044?searchTerm=greenland%20%20melting&searchLimits=





"Fudger" Hansen has recently determined that the temperature measurements
from Greenland in 1940 were "suspiciously" too high, and has whacked a
couple of degrees of of them.



"Fudger" Hansen's magic computer has retroactively un-melted the glaciers.

People back then were too dumb to know what melting ice looks like anyway.

The sentence implies that at CO2 absorption wavelengths, the amount of
energy that escapes to space is less than the amount emitted from the
earths surface.

IOW on its way through the atmosphere, a proportion of the energy is
being absorbed, thus warming the air and causing the CO2 greenhouse
effect.

Antarctic temperatures and snowfalls fluctuate above and below their
respective trendlines.

But that doesn't alter the observed fact that on average ice sheet
loss is accelerating.

What Hansen may have done is irrelevant here.

The evidence I gave was "The Decadal Land-Surface Average Temperature
by the Berkley Earth Team", and that shows warming.

That's a struly scientific position, NOT OPINION!
The null hypothesis is the staring point and so far holds.

Irrelevant.
There was solid evidence for the causes of lung cancer.

Difference being that over time, evidence for smoking-related health
risks became stronger and stronger. By contrast, as time passes and data
accumulates, evidence for AGW is becoming weaker and weaker. Only
evidence for the scam is on the (ever) increase.
