    LOL Oh my God I'm going to have to explain this. Unbelievable.


    Definition of anthropogenic


    : of, relating to, or resulting from the influence of human beings on nature

    Influence is not primary as a cause and your article doesn't even list the evidence because its behind a paywall to even make the claim of influence which no one has ever denied humans do have an impact on the environment. The difference is rational people do not believe humans are the primary source of climate change because the facts do not exist for that belief.

    My God that had to be explained as well.

    I would bet there are a few Democrats (see Union whores are a few), who love socialism and gas guzzling monster trucks...

    I can influence something and be the primary cause of its going lean, just by turning a carburetor screw. I can influence my handlebars, and be the primary cause of a crash.

    There must be a Hole in the Ozone layer over Antarctica that is causing the Suns Rays to Super Heat that area right now. Liberals better send Al Gore a couple Billion dollars to write a Book and make a Movie about it and how to fix it. Maybe he'll call it An Inconvenient Hole in Space.

    Right now it's a Balmy -32 below Zero Fahrenheit, so maybe Liberals can put on their Speedo's and go swimming down there. On Feb 24th is suppose to be -60 degree's, so even better.

    I don't believe that. The reason I don't believe that is because our hottest summer would feel like a Spring day under a shade tree compared to the heat this Earth has reached in the past before our industrial era.

    What I believe is that we're about to be in a grand solar minimum, and it's not because of anything we've done or tried to do. This is my belief and if I'm wrong then I'll adapt just as humans have done since the Medieval Warm Period when global means temp was 2° higher, and the Little Ice Age when the global means temp was 3° lower.

    Yes, that's what happens when you come out of a cooling trend. It gets hotter and then goes back into a cooling trend. You'll see. It's pointless to argue, really, because I'm not going to change your mind (not that I'm trying to because you're free to believe what you want) and you're not going to change my mind.

    I think you use msm to refer to any news source that you dislike.

    What do you think is the primary source of the current climate warming?

    MSM = Mainstream Media = DP = Fake News.
    I like the MSM just fine whenever it occasionally tells the truth, but the working presumption should always be that MSM = Fake News.

    It's Summer in Antarctica... Whoopity doo.

    What's significant about it? It's Summer in Antarctica.

    Made up numbers. It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth. Not enough thermometers.

    Made up numbers. It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth.

    More made up numbers. It is not possible to measure global CO2 concentration.

    No, it is a religion based on the denial of logic, science, and mathematics.

    What natural cycle explains the accelerated warming of the last 50 years?

    It only takes a year for it to be official, we haven't participated in any of that tomfoolery and certainly haven't given any of those leeches any of our money. If it weren't for Trump, America would be a memory by now.

    It hasn't cost me a dime because Trump told people like you to get a job.

    Damn I love that man.

    What the link in the OP doesn't mention is that the Esperanza Base is only 400 miles south of South America.

    Esperanza Base.JPG

    Isla Grevy is at the southern tip of South America and it's 58° there right now.

    The spin here is the MSM saying "Antarctica" and not telling readers that the furthest tip of Antarctica is the area that reached 65.

    That media spin.....

    And you can't prove humans are the primary cause for climate change on earth

    Why is that so hard to grasp?

    The earth.

    As it has always been the earth for millions of years before humans ever showed up.

    The fallacy of your passion is that if you stuck with pollution you would have 1000000 times the support because pollution can be actually measured and proving its human caused is beyond easy.

    But no you guys ignore actual pollution in the sea and refuse to go after China the Philippines or any of the other top pollution countries on the planet and instead embrace this religius fantasy that humans must be the primary cause without evidence.

    Why? Why not stick with actual tangible evidence of human based pollution instead of indulging in fantasy?

    You just demonstrated an inability to use the English language at a High School level and two people thanked you for it, proving anything to you would be impossible at this point.

    Looks like he doesn't buy the peer reviewed papers that were agreed upon by all of the same group of government funded climate scientists. I don't buy it either. But like I said, it's our choice not to believe it.

    Believing that bias influences the primary findings is one thing; not knowing how language works is another. His primary argument, that somehow the word “primary” is diminished because the word “influence” was used in a definition, was influenced by ignorance. Pure ignorance, and if moderation on this board is too stupid to want this to stay then so be it.
