Climate change is on ice

Quote from fhl:

The scientific worldview is just awesome.

To be fair - my understanding is that Darwin said this in jest while making a toast at the bachelor party of one of his friends (a sailing officier who was on the expedition I believe).

The 1000+ scientific papers in the 1970s promoting global cooling are hardly a 'minority position'.

The 2000+ media articles in the 1970s promoting global cooling are hardly a 'minority position'.

You can go to WattsUp and other sources and see the entire list.
1000 could well be a minority position, since you have not supplied the quantity of all papers.

We went through this nonsense last time warming slowed for a bit. Then it resumed with a vengeance.

But as I've said earlier, you've already lost the battle, industry, agriculture, municipalities are already spending money and adapting.

Oh, and the ice continues to melt.

You missed the news that Arctic ice increased by 60% last year.

Maybe you also missed the news that the Antarctic land and sea ice have been increasing for years.
 
man made global warming is a minority position.

"The consensus Cook considered was the standard definition: that Man had caused most post-1950 warming. Even on this weaker definition the true consensus among published scientific papers is now demonstrated to be not 97.1%, as Cook had claimed, but only 0.3%.

Only 41 out of the 11,944 published climate papers Cook examined explicitly stated that Man caused most of the warming since 1950. Cook himself had flagged just 64 papers as explicitly supporting that consensus, but 23 of the 64 had not in fact supported it.

This shock result comes scant weeks before the United Nations’ climate panel, the IPCC, issues its fifth five-yearly climate assessment, claiming “95% confidence” in the imagined – and, as the new paper shows, imaginary – consensus."

Maybe you missed the news that the 60% was from a record low extent.
The second statement is not in the news, at least not in any news educated people read (for information).
 
Back in the 90's we didn't have this constant drone about global warming.
But we did have a lot of AIDS, which was almost as bad.
 
yes big govt needs a bogeyman in order shrink liberty, accumulate power, suck away our earnings through taxes and give it to their crony friends.

the right and the left have played this game since at least the time Eisenhower warned against the M.I. complex.

and the reason why the privately owned Federal reserve was voted in by democrat controlled congress was to fight off panics and depressions which some say were caused by bankers like JP Morgan.
