    Hardly. The very instant Michael Mann presented his hockey stick to Al Gore who rushed out to create the carbon credit markets and then attempted to legislate a legal requirement to make folks pay for their CO2 usage was the instant it was politicized. I don't find Al very conservative. So squirm all you need to, your myopic view of the issue removes your credibility.

    It was and is politicized by true believers using AGW to attack industrialization in general and America in particular

    Those who try to substitute their ideological zealotry for dispassionate science look especially goofy when they pretend that local weather equates with climate.

    [​IMG]
    The increased frequency of extreme weather events is consistent with the anthropogenic climate change that has been verified to the satisfaction of the international community.

    The atmosphere is not amenable to political philosophy. It conforms to scientific principles as established by empirical data, and pooping into the heavens with impunity is not licensed by any ilk's dogmatic beliefs, however fervid.

    You surely see the humor in how often this happens don't you?

    NPR did a story this morning about the melting permafrost.
    Things are being seen and coming to life, that had been frozen for thousands of years.
    Meaning, the earth used to be warmer then, than now.

    Gotta love all these oh so official charts and graphs compiled from manipulated data. Garbage in garbage out.

    But AGW/global warming/climate change is specifically about the claim that man's contributions to the greenhouse effect are responsible for the current warming trend (specifically warming of global average temperatures), and that this trend is very rapid compared to natural warming trends of the past. No other cause has been offered that fits with the current warming trend we see. This is what the denialist crowd doesn't seem to understand. Or, in very rare cases, they try to claim that no warming is happening at all. But that's a fringe within a fringe.

    You aren't an investor, are you? What you effectively portray is a one hour snapshot of an event, when the real substance is, where has it been over the history of time? You don't have one.

    It's become an annual event. It's hilarious. You'd think these idiots would have learned to conduct these in the summer. It doesn't reflect much common sense does it?:roflol:

    Well over a thousand private jet aircraft flew in for Davos. With that much combustion and then the elite hot air that follows some immediate climate change for the worse has to be expected.

    When floodwaters start rising in American cities, we're only going to allow people that understand the difference between weather and climate onto the rescue boats. We'll just leave you to drown if you can't. You need to become smarter than the OP by then.

    What? They have snow in the Alps, a well-known tourist destination for their excellent skiing and large number of ski resorts?

    I always get a kick out of this and being called a denier/denialist, lol.

    Why the democrats want to waste billions on natural weather patterns is beyond me.

    The Louisiana and Texas Navies saved them last time, so long as they didn't try to drive in the raging rivers.

    Apparently, you're an ideologue. The global community has opted to go with science, instead.

    Ocean temps were close to 20° higher than today back in the Jurassic period a couple hundred million years ago. But Al Gore plans on getting us there in less than a century according to his calculations. Ha

    The world is going with scientific expertise. Ideologues have failed to discredit science.

    Science is a conspiracy from the jaundiced perspective of ideologues, indeed.
