Ice free Artic was supposed to happen by 2013, hmmmm.

If the expected changes from the CO2 theory had happened, there would be no debate, and no denial that the AGW theory was correct, and we are screwed. The record loss of crops from cold this year is another reason why we know the theory was wrong.

Despite the deception by some, there is more snow when it's colder, and the data clearly shows the NH is cooling in winter, not warming. Examples are so numerous is ludicrous to argue this.




Not that facts are going to matter in any way.

Thanks for the link. This, however, will be dismissed as a one-off, anomaly, random event.

The humor in it is one off hotter events prove global warming but the one off colder events don't disprove it.

Why exactly do you think that this is somehow proof that there is no global warming?

There are dozens and dozens of widely available articles that explain how warmer summers lead to colder winters... and on top of that, you're only looking at the Northern Hemisphere, and only during the winter.

The yearly average global temperatures continue to increase.

Colder Winters due to Global Warming? - Climate Change Weather Blog
Polar Vortex: Climate Change Could Be the Cause of Record Cold Weather | TIME.com
How Warmer Summers Cause Colder Winters | Global Warming Effects, Climate Change Effects, Arctic Warming Effects | What Causes Cold Winters, How Climate Works

The only 'debate' is over whether or not you and the rest of the deniers will ever be able to fully understand this issue.

The article is fine, the weather is not an 'anomaly'... but it doesn't prove what you think it proves.
So I'm accepting this as proof that you don't know how climate change works.

Read carefully. You are trying to say something that was not claimed.

All I see is you posting about crop losses from cold as if it contradicts the theory.
It doesn't.

And even if someone did predict something different, how do 'failed' predictions about the effects of global warming somehow mean that CO2 emissions aren't warming the planet? Do you not see that they aren't the same thing?
