Just decades of data and a theory that fits the facts.



And no denialist can even come close to proving that what you see is actually there, so there's no reason to pretend it's true.

I go by what I see. And right now, I'm looking out of my office window and see at least 2 inches of snow on the ground not unheard of in November in this area BTW but a 10 day stretch of well below normal temperatures for this time of year, which is not typical. In other words, it is more or less going to feel like January, and not mid to late fall. This was preceeded by a second summer in a row of below normal temps. In short we never left spring, and in fact spring was cooler than usual as well. So, riddle me this so-called expert, why if the globe as a whole if it is warming is my region not? Global warming everywhere else, except northeast Ohio, using the "it's local weather" excuse isn't going to cut it! Now on the other hand if I start seeing less snow over the years and palm trees start growing by Lake Erie, then you may make a believer out of me. Until then? Nope.

Of course it does, it stretches back over a century. And it shows that the past 14 years have recorded temperature increases. The right wing claim that temperatures are not increasing this century is proven false.

Do you understand Calculus? Ever study electrical or mechanical engineering? There is something called a "dampening effect" which while being mathematical it correlates directly to global warming. The dampening effect is causing greater oscillation in weather trends, and overall does relate to increasing warming temperature.

One of the most common misunderstandings amongst climate “skeptics” is the difference between short-term noise and long-term signal. In fact, “it hasn’t warmed since 1998” is ninth on the list of most-used climate myths, and “it’s cooling” is fifth. This myth stems from a lack of understanding of exactly what global warming is. The term refers to the long-term warming of the global climate, usually measured over a timescale of about 30 years, as defined by the World Meteorological Organization. This is because global warming is caused by a global energy imbalance – something causing the Earth to retain more heat, such as an increase in solar radiation reaching the surface, or an increased greenhouse effect.

There are also a number of effects which can have a large impact on short-term temperatures, such as oceanic cycles like the El Niño Southern Oscillation or the 11-year solar cycle. Sometimes these dampen global warming, and sometimes they amplify it. However, they’re called “oscillations” and “cycles” for a reason – they alternate between positive and negative states and don’t have long-term effects on the Earth’s temperature.

Right now we’re in the midst of a period where most short-term effects are acting in the cooling direction, dampening global warming. Many climate “skeptics” are trying to capitalize on this dampening, trying to argue that this time global warming has stopped, even though it didn’t stop after the global warming “pauses” in 1973 to 1980, 1980 to 1988, 1988 to 1995, 1995 to 2001, or 1998 to 2005.

Over the last 37 years one can identify overlapping short windows of time when climate “skeptics” could have argued (and often did, i.e. here and here and here) that global warming had stopped. And yet over the entire period question containing these six cooling trends, the underlying trend is one of rapid global warming (0.27°C per decade, according to the new Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature [BEST] dataset). And while the global warming trend spans many decades, the longest cooling trend over this period is 10 years, which proves that each was caused by short-term noise dampening the long-term trend.

In short, those arguing that global warming has stopped are missing the forest for the trees, focusing on short-term noise while ignoring the long-term global warming signal. Since the release of the BEST data which confirmed the global warming observed by all other global temperature measurements, climate “skeptics” have been scrambling for a way to continue denying that global warming is a problem, and focusing on the short-term noise has become their preferred go-to excuse.

If it makes you feel any better, it seems the BRIC nations for the most part seem to be ignoring global warming, and interestingly, they are the ones that will be experiencing the most disaster as sea levels rise. Anyone interested should see the September 2013 issue of National Geographic.

actually NO-ONE..not one scientist has proved that climate change is man-made/man caused

it is historically proven that the climate does change naturally


and that's the whole point...its awfully egotistical for humans to think they are the cause of a natural occurrence...and awfully deceitful for fascist liberals to think a tax will change the path of a natural change

Progressives love to spend other people's hard earned money.
