August, 2019, Part 1, I Am A Global Warming Doubter and A Believer In Science: More Global Warming Forecast Failures

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 on 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 post 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) So many times we have shown that global warming models have always overestimated the impact of mankind on the climate or got it completely wrong. By now the ice caps should have melted, the glaciers should be watering holes, etc., etc., etc. But what the models predicted never seemed to happen.

But a recent article from the Freedom News Report website may have cast some light on why these models are always wrong:
  • The first United Nations doom and gloom global warming model that predicted the end of humanity from manmade global warming stated in June, 1989 that we would all die within ten years or by 1999.
  • Twenty years after our forecasted demise, and thirty years after the fatal prediction, we are still alive and kicking.
  • How could a forecast model have been so wrong?
  • It turns out that two teams of real scientists, one in Finland and one in Japan, may have the answer after they analyzed every major government global warming statistical model they could including models from NOAA, NASA and the United Nations.
  • Their analyses found that these models omitted a very important factor in their predictive algorithms.
  • The commonality across all of these models was that they did not take into account the impact that clouds have on weather and climate.
  • According to the article: “The Finnish and Japanese scientists discovered that every single government entity that used climate modeling to predict weather doom totally forgot to account for how clouds affect temperature, weather and climate. When the real [Finnish and Japanese] scientists used the exact same government climate models and plugged CLOUDS into the equation… it turns out that manmade global warming does not exist at all, in any projected future timeline.”
Oops, forgot about a major factor hanging out over all of us. And yet liberal politicians will continue to warn us about our impending doom from global warming, e.g. Congresswoman’s Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s recent inane quote that we were all going to die from climate change in ten years. Sorry, Congresswoman, we lived through that movie in 1989 and thirty years later it is still wrong.

2) CNN has always been a big manmade global warming advocate even though as a news organization they are supposed to present both sides of issues, something that got wiped out in their integrity sensor long ago. Recently they tried to peddle another global warming warning via their official Twitter account:
  • Earlier this summer they tweeted out a picture of a dog sled making its way in Greenland.
  • In the photo it appeared that the sled dogs were trudging through standing water which CNN tried to peddle as proof that the Greenland glaciers were melting due to manmade climate change.
  • Attached to their observation was a prediction that the world would end in about 12 years, obviously not reading the first point we made above.
  • But it is summertime in Greenland and much like elsewhere in the world when it is summer it is a little hotter and according to basic physics, when it gets hot things melt.
  • Which is where Peter Heide Jorgensen enters the picture.
  • Mr. Jorgensen is a professor at the Greenland Natural Resources Institute so he obviously has some scientific cred.
  • He noted that glacier ice melts during the summer are quite common in Greenland and have been going on for a very long time.
  • In fact, he posted a photo from 1984 next to the CNN photo from the summer of 2019, 35 years later, and there is very little difference in the summer photos from each year.
  • If global warming had been happening, one would expect the summer glacier melt in 2019 to be much worse than the melt 35 years earlier but it wasn’t.
  • But the embarrassment in Greenland gets even worse for CNN.
  • Some global warming advocates have claimed that the reduction occurring in Greenland ice over the past ten years proves that global warming exists and that the glaciers will eventually all go away because of it.
  • But contrary to their predictions of ever decreasing glacier ice, over the past year the amount of glacier ice has INCREASED, not continued to decrease.
  • In fact, it looks like this past year ice growth has restored/reversed the glacier ice back to what it was in 2016.
So maybe we are not all going to die in 12 years as CNN predicted if indeed the Greenland glacier ice is growing again. Dang, it sucks when reality proves that your global warming predictions are ALWAYS wrong.

A good start to proof again it is perfectly sane to be a global warming doubter and a believer in science. Scientists and time have proven over and over that global warming is a doubtful concept at best. More to doubts to come.

June, 2019, Part 1, I Am A Global Warming Doubter and A Believer In Science: More Failed Doomsday Climate Predictions

On a periodic basis, we revisit a continuing theme in this blog, “I am a global warming doubter AND a believer in science.” Several years ago we started investigating the viability of this position for a number of reasons:
  • It did not appear that global warming advocates were looking at all of the available global warming science, realities, and trends, just those select pieces of information that supported their position.
  • There seemed to be a growing sense of doubt among scientists about whether or not global warming was actually a real thing.
  • We were getting tired of Al Gore and others of his ilk who constantly were calling those that were undecided about global warming a whole litany of slurs including racists, homophobes, and other insulting terms.
After researching and writing about dozens of global warming information sources, we have proven over and over that it is perfectly logical to be a global warming doubter and a believer in science:
  • Realities show that global warming actually stopped about 18 years ago, causing global warming advocates to rebrand their position as “climate change” since “global warming” was no longer an emerging reality.
  • Turns out the major global warming forecast models all turned out to be grossly inaccurate in predicting future climate and warming trends, throwing into doubt whether any man made global warming or climate change was actually happening.
  • Major and reputable scientists and science organizations (e.g. the renowned CERN Institute) were either originally determining that man made global warming and climate control never existed or changing their position to become doubters of what they may have original believed about global warming.
  • Important and prominent scientists around the world were caught manipulating climate data to verify their false claims and forecast models or were outed for at least contemplating changing real world data to match their ill performing analyses and forecasting models.
Previous exposes’ of global warming and climate change theories by using real world numbers, scientific experiments, and the simple act of observing can be accessed in this blog by typing “I am a global warming doubter” in the search box above. At that point, you will be provided many previous posts from this blog including dozens and dozens of information sources that more and more point to a repudiation of Al Gore and others, man made global warming, and man made climate change. The latest proof that you can be a global warming doubter and a believer in sciences is discussed below:

1) Nicolas Loris, writing for the Heritage Foundation on April 22, 2019, reminded us that “On Earth Day, Gloomy Predictions Haven’t Come To Pass:”
  • Earth Day was first celebrated in April, 1970 and since then on subsequent Earth Days “experts” have scared us with their gloom and doom predictions of what mankind was doing to Mother Nature and the climate.
  • For example, note ecologist Kenneth Watt predicted that, “By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate … that there won’t be any more crude oil. You’ll drive up to the pump and say, ‘Fill ‘er up, buddy,’ and he’ll say, ‘I am very sorry, there isn’t any.'” 
  • Nineteen years later the world is awash in oil, cars that burn that oil burn it much more cleanly and efficiently, and with no end in sight of running out of oil.
  • Watt also predicted that global cooling, not global warming, and nitrogen buildup in the atmosphere would make entire planet’s land unusable.
  • Decades later most of the land on Earth is still usable and by some measures has never been more productive.
  • According to the EPA’s research the combined emissions of the six common air pollutants has decreased a whopping 73% between 1970 and 2017.
  • In fact, research by the World Bank and the United Nations show that extreme poverty and hunger has dropped considerably since that first Earth Day in 1970.
Watt is not the only expert to be so wrong so long ago even though their “expert” predictions at the time scared the life out of us. And as time has gone by, the experts in global warming have also shown to be no better than Watt and others predicting the future.

2) The same article uncovered a very interesting set of statistics, a set that should really cause liberals and global warming advocates to go crazy. Most of the most ardent global warming advocates are Democrats and socialists who see government control, higher taxes, more regulations, and the reduction in personal freedom as the only way to save the Earth. 

Consider two pieces of research:
  1. The Heritage Foundation does an annual index study which measures the relative personal freedom of every country.
  2. Yale University does an Environmental Performance Index that measures countries’ good or bad behaviors against the environment.
And guess what: if you put the two indexes together there is a very high correlation between the two indexes, namely the more freedom a country tolerates the better that country performs relative to the environment. In other words, oppressive government restrictions, taxes and regulations, three things that suppress freedom, are the exact opposite of what should be done when it comes to protecting the Earth. 

According to the article: “Freer economies have access to more products and technologies that make our lives healthier and the environment cleaner. For instance, the availability of simple products such as soaps, cleaners, and detergents makes our homes dramatically cleaner and healthier. The development of sanitation systems and availability of garbage collection greatly reduce many types of diseases and reduce toxins in the air and water. These products and services may not be what immediately comes to mind on Earth Day, but they’ve had an enormous impact on cleaning up the planet.”

So the next time a liberal or Democratic friend espouses how we need government, politicians, and bureaucrats to reduce our freedom to save the world, tell him or her that they are wrong. Freedom heals poverty and now it appears that freedom heals the world.

3) The League Of Power website on April 30, 2019, also went about “Debunking the Latest Climate Change Lies:”
  • In reality, from a global warming perspective, the Earth has not gotten warmer for almost two decades despite the dire warnings from global warming experts that failed to take into account that warming would stop.
  • In fact, in total, the Earth on average has actually cooled for the past four years or so, another reality that was never predicted by global warming advocates
  • In addition, the U.S, has led the world in reducing its greenhouse gas emissions despite pulling out of the Paris Climate Agreement.
  • Even the United Nations climate organization, IPCC, has pulled back on its doomsday prediction, claiming back in an October report that “dangerous climate change is half as likely as the IPCC postulated in their 2007 assessment.”
  • According to the Federal government’s NOAA research, the Arctic is in the midst of a multi-year cooling period.
  • Also, the glacial ice in Greenland has stopped shrinking and is now in a growth mode at the fastest rate ever.
  • Carbon dioxide levels today are almost twice as high than what they were in the 1950s and yet there has been no runaway increases in global warming.
More debunking of a global warming myth that we have discussed dozens of times over the years.

4) The following video that was presented by the Liberty Video News website. It records an interview of a Princeton University physicists that shows how the whole global warming/climate change crowd is in actuality a cult:

Okay that will do it for today. Future predictions about climate disasters have not come true, the key to keeping Mother Nature healthy is personal freedom, global warming increases stopped two decades ago, we are actually seeing some global cooling going on, a major glacier is getting larger at a rapid rate, our air is considerably cleaner than it was back in the 1970s, the Arctic is cooling and the U.S. leads the world in reducing its carbon footprint. So much for the gloom and doomers like Al Gore.
