you have to realize the only temps that count are from the end of the Maunder Minimum. Any temperature fluctuation before that are of no consequence
As someone who has long argued for the medieval warm period its always important to remember that relative to the rest of the Holocene the medieval warm period isn't even warm. Its simply warmer than the dark age and little ice age.
Even better. What happens when this interglacial ends? - - - Updated - - - It was warmer during the last interglacial.
Precisely. The Greenland ice sheet survived the approximate 400 year long MWP without completely melting, and it will survive this warm period too.
That is how CO2 is leading surface temps, as usual. Temperature should be dropping, while glaciers should all be advancing, NOW, already, since the interglacial should be at an end, TODAY. Temps are easing up, while perennial ice is melting and evaporating, as GHGs go off the hook. No other outcome, other than a mass extinction event accompanies a fast rise, in atmospheric CO2. CO2 is going up, faster, than at any other time, in geologic history, accompanied, by any other natural GHGs, which it triggers, and by industrial GHGs, including many, which do not degrade. Sorry about the Kochs and Exxon ditching Heartland, after all. What a shame . . . boo-freaking-hoo . . . I guess it's X-mas, anyway . . . hohoho . . .
LOL, the usual liberal proxy words and accusations, along with some really uneducated statements. What makes you think the interglacial will end during your lifetime? Oh, that's right, you guys can predict the future, I forgot.
Aw, so much losing . . . since you didn't read my post, before ranting, I guess you should probably get a dog, since you don't have a "liberal." Oh, that's right. You guys are getting kicked off better science forums, like Reddit. No wonder. The interglacial won't end, since GHGs proliferate, and the poles are reversing. We'll go hot-house. Don't (*)(*)(*)(*) off Luck, like you did Mr.Manning.
LOL, there is no end to the religion banning speech, especially if it is at odds with the religion. Good luck with your prognostication, you will need it. Peer-Reviewed Survey Finds Majority Of Scientists Skeptical Of Global Warming Crisis
What a crock of poo, from Heartland's James Taylor, in non-science zine Forbes, dated 2/13/13! And then, on February 15, Heartland and Taylor sprung a leak: http://thinkprogress.org/climate/20...-confirms-heartland-weather-stations-project/ Also from February 15: http://scienceblogs.com/denialism/2...rbes-courtesy-of-heartland-hack-james-taylor/ Four days later, on 2/19/13: http://thinkprogress.org/climate/20...y-claims-new-study-rejects-climate-consensus/ This hack Taylor isn't a climatologist, and his degrees are way off science: http://www.desmogblog.com/james-taylor Heartland and Taylor are geeks, tied to ALEC, but they don't get more Koch or Exxon money, as of now: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Heartland_Institute Eh? The Kochs and Exxon are cutting your allowance. Science blogs will boot you. Zombie-infested blogs will put up with you, for now. Cigarettes cause cancer, unprotected gay sex with needle sharing spreads HIV, the Earth is NOT flat, and sorry about your folks, on the Titanic. So much losing . . .have you tried hoop? I guess that kid Bobby Knight ran off, on IU, by now, didn't he . . .
Think Progress? Blogs? You should expand your reading a bit further afield than the true believers. You might learn something.
Like I wrote, you deniers are banned, from Reddit science. Since all you do is rant geekery and spam Heartland scat, no wonder it's time for you to move on or just sit there and watch TV. Your corrupt Heartland toads have lost donors, from their former list. Gee! Did your clown Taylor spill the beans, to precede this? I learn something new, every day: http://www.theguardian.com/business/2012/may/06/diageo-end-funding-heartland-institute http://cjonline.com/news/2013-12-12/public-funding-ends-heartland-visioning http://www.desmogblog.com/heartland-institute Woops. I guess with the sea warming, rats jumping some sinking ship will enjoy their swim!
Putting Modern Climate Change in Perspective Global climate changes have been far more intense (12 to 20 times as intense in some cases) than the global warming of the past century, and they took place in as little as 20100 years. Global warming of the past century (0.8° C) is virtually insignificant when compared to the magnitude of at least 10 global climate changes in the past 15,000 years. None of these sudden global climate changes could possibly have been caused by human CO2 input to the atmosphere because they all took place long before anthropogenic CO2 emissions began. The cause of the ten earlier natural climate changes was most likely the same as the cause of global warming from 1977 to 1998.
"Opposing views" are another matter, than the evident spamming, of Heartland Corp. scat, by you and other deniers, which rant, to deflect.
This Don Easterbrook guy, who rants up your Carbon Sense geekery is no longer connected, to any university. He is a Heartland Corp. geek: https://www.skepticalscience.com/don-easterbrook-heartland-distortion-of-reality.html http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Carbon_Sense_Coalition http://www.desmogblog.com/carbon-sense-coalition Why don't you just post: 'Big Oil sez OINK!'
Really ? Well lets go through the validity of your sources one at a time then shall we ? http://www.populartechnology.net/2012/03/truth-about-skeptical-science.html http://www.populartechnology.net/2011/10/truth-about-sourcewatch.html http://www.populartechnology.net/2011/04/truth-about-desmogblog.html You really are a gift for any skeptic please keep it up
Your uncredentialed BLOG doesn't like my sources, for true reports! You really do post blog-scat, like a hippo, fouling the Nile.
Long experience has proven that a true believer in AGW cannot be reasoned out of their position because it wasn't reason that got them there in the first place
It's not a problem, they've chosen a path that doesn't include one of the scientific basics, scepticism. They have no doubt that their science may be flawed, to them it's cut and dried, done and dusted, the science is settled, there are no more questions to ask. Thankfully, we don't belong to that club.
