June, 2017, Part 2, I Am A Global Warming Doubter and A Believer In Science: Look At The Numbers and Blow And Blow YourMind

Every month we have enough material to return to a continuing theme in this blog, namely that “I am a global warming doubter AND a believer in science.” This became of interest because of people like Al Gore who fanatically and verbosely claimed that you had to be an idiot to not believe in manmade global warming. It has been my life belief that anyone that is that loud and that obnoxious is hiding something, that rather than argue facts and reality it is better to beat down and insult anyone who disagrees

As we have dove into the whole issue of manmade global warming, or its new rebranded title of climate change, we found that Al Gore and people like him were guilty of a number of things:

• Ignoring science and realities that did not support their opinions and positions.
• Rather than have an adult conversation about climate, these types of advocates like Gore sank to the level of insulting those who dared look at ALL science by calling them a variety of names including racists, homophobes, terrorists, flat earth believers, and other slanderous names.
• Continuing to insist that politicians step up their intrusions into our lives with higher taxes, more regulations, and more control of our freedoms and standards of living based on a shaky theory at best.

To see the past posts and the multitude of evidence that we have compiled that showed it is perfectly okay to be a global warming doubter and a believer in science, enter the phrase "global warming doubter” in the search box above or go through the monthly historical posts listed on the right side of this page.

Thus, let’s see the latest facts and science that prove you can be a global warming doubter and a believer in science, regardless of what Al Gore proclaims.

1) A recent scare that global warming/climate change advocates tried to peddle was that manmade climate change was increasing the likelihood and severity of droughts. They would point to the massive drought that California has been experiencing the past few years as conclusive proof that manmade climate change was leading to devastating drought conditions. In fact, one advocate claimed that California had entered a permanent state of drought, again all caused by mankind’s energy foolishness.

But then it started to rain in California. It rained so much that construction of a new NFL stadium had to be significantly delayed because of the large amount of rain, causing the to be built stadium to be not available to host a Super Bowl a few years down the road. So much for a permanent drought condition, it is raining so much that building construction has had to be delayed.

But Philip Hodges, writing for the Eagle Rising website, outlined how little drought there actually is in the country today, as reported by USA Today:

• Despite climate change advocates’ predictions of severe drought conditions, the U.S. drought situation is at a 17 year low.
• The Federal government announced recently, via its U.S. Drought Monitor, that only 6.1% of the lower 48 states are in a drought condition today.
• This is a record low in the history of the 17 year old Monitor, lower than the previous low of 7.7% way back in 2010.
• According to meteorologist Brad Rippey of the U.S.Department of Agriculture: “Drought has certainly been disappearing at a rapid rate this spring.” 
• California, which has been a multi year drought condition, has only 8% of its territory in a drought condition, close to the national average.
• The record high for the Monitor was September, 2012 when 65.5% of the country was in a drought condition.

Another lie or misinformation from the climate change advocates. Five years after the Monitor showed that 65.5% of the country was in a drought condition, it is now a fraction of what it was back then despite who knows how much carbon mankind has thrown into the atmosphere since 2012.

Real data shows that the severe weather that was predicted, in this case prolonged and deadlier droughts, has not materialized as predicted. Just another grossly inaccurate prediction from the people that continue to say things without science, facts, or reality to back them up.

2) The article cited in the previous discussion went on to document how many other times that global warming/climate change advocates’ views and predictions of the world did not line up with the realities and data sets of the world including, citing Marc Morano of Climate Depot as his source:

Extreme Weather: Scientist to Congress in 2017: ‘No evidence’ that hurricanes, floods, droughts, tornadoes are increasing – Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. of University of Colorado

Tornadoes: NOAA Tornado data revealing 2016 as ‘one of the quietest years since records began in 1954’ and below average for 5th year in a row

Hurricanes: 1) Inconvenient NOAA report: ‘It is premature to conclude (AGW has) already had a detectable impact on’ hurricanes & 2) NOAA: U.S. Completes Record 11 Straight Years Without Major (Cat 3+) Hurricane Strike & 3) 30 peer-reviewed scientific papers reveal the lack of connection between hurricanes & ‘global warming’

Floods: ‘Floods are not increasing’: Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. slams ‘global warming’ link to floods and extreme weather – How does media ‘get away with this?’http://www.climatedepot.com/2016/08/23/floods-are-not-increasing-dr-roger-pielke-jr-slams-global-warming-link-to-floods-extreme-weather-how-does-media-get-away-with-this/ – Pielke Jr. on how extreme weather is NOT getting worse: ‘Flood disasters are sharply down. U.S. floods not increasing either.’ “Floods suck when they occur. The good news is U.S. flood damage is sharply down over 70 years,” Pielke explained.

Heavy Rains: 1000 year rainfall study suggests droughts and floods used to be longer, worsehttp://www.climatedepot.com/2016/05/13/1000-year-rainfall-study-suggests-droughts-and-floods-used-to-be-longer-worse/

Extreme weather used to be blamed on ‘global cooling’ in the 1970s and early 80s Flashback NOAA 1974: ‘Extreme weather events blamed on global cooling’ http://www.climatedepot.com/2016/09/08/flashback-noaa-1974-extreme-weather-events-blamed-on-global-cooling/ – NOAA October 1974: ‘Many climatologists have associated this drought and other recent weather anomalies with a global cooling trend and changes in atmospheric circulation which, if prolonged, pose serious threats to major food-producing regions of the world’

I love his last point where as recently as 1974 the Federal government was predicting a global cooling disaster in the making. Funny, how within just a few years the data showed the complete opposite, global warming. Nothing in Mother Nature changes that quickly.

Bottom line is that scientists, data, reality, and research contradict all of the natural disasters, droughts, hurricanes, etc. that were predicted to have occurred already that have not occurred.

3) The Independent Journal Review recently compiled a bunch of data charts from the past few years that showed that manmade global warming/climate change may actually be a myth, especially if you look at historical data, with historical data being over thousands and millions of years in order to get at the long term climate shifts of the earth. That article can be accessed at:

http://ijr.com/the-declaration/2014/05/139936-25-images-prove-climate-changes-whether-man-anything/

As you read the article and look at the charts, you will see the data indicates that in the history of the Earth, carbon dioxide levels have been much higher than they are today, high levels attained without the help of mankind. Earth's temperature has been much higher than it is today, high temps that were attained without the help of mankind. Hurricane volume and activity is down, contrary to what global warming advocates predicted. Tornado levels are down, contrary to what global warming advocates predicted. And on and on and on.

Data and reality are wonderful things. They actually show reality, not what politicians like Al Gore want reality to be. Which reminds me of an old saying: “There is nothing more devastating to an opinion than the right number.” And the numbers and trends illustrated in this article certainly should devastate many opinions of global warming advocates, assuming their minds are open enough to dump the hysteria and believe the numbers.

And even if mankind is changing the climate a substantial amount, what in the world makes anyone think that people like Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, and the rest of the inept people sitting in Congress and the Federal government can do anything about it efficiently, effectively, and constructively? As pointed out in the article, “Do government bureaucrats who can't even run Amtrak or the Post Office actually think they can control the weather like a thermostat?” Doubtful, very doubtful.

That will do it for today’s lesson in reality relative to climate: the numbers, history, and common sense do nothing to reinforce the concept that mankind is devastating the climate, it is plain as day for anyone without a closed mind or a mindless desire to follow what politicians tell us.
