Yup, don't people know by now that anything and everything is just more proof of man-made global warming climate change?


It snows - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
It doesn't snow - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
It's warm - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
It's cold - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
It rains - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
It doesn't rain - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
Birds fly south - is proof of man-made global warming climate change
Birds fly north - is proof of man-made global warming climate change

A conservative says heat waves are only weather, and cold waves are proof of a lack of global warming.

Yes, yes, yes... because anything besides a benign, mostly sunny, 60-80 degree day, with calm breezes is a weather extreme, and proof of man-made global warming climate change.

Pretty much, if the temperature outside is warmer or cooler than the thermostat in your home, then it's a weather extreme and proof of man-made climate change.

Wake up, there have been fewer weather extremes, not more. We have had fewer hurricanes, fewer tornadoes, fewer.... not an increase.

Just a couple years ago all the scientists were writing reports about the "PAUSE" in their predicted global warming, and they were puzzled. Why was there a two decade long "pause," as in no increase in the global mean average temperature? When, for the previous few decades, they were predicting a climate Armageddon?

It's always been your ilk who have been running around pointing to weather events, and screaming man-made global warming is gonna destroy the earth. Can't you see that we are turning around your same tactic back on you, to mock you?

Wrong, it's just weather. It's always been people like you who think a year with a warm summer, or a cool summer, either one was proof of man-made climate change. We noticed that after years with no to few hurricanes at all, followed by hurricane Sandy was still proof, to you guys, of man-made climate change.

I firmly believe in climate change. The global climate has been changing frequently over millions of years. Yes, it is happening again.
Did mankind cause the present day changes? Can mankind do anything to stop said changes?
The answer, IMO, to both questions: Maybe, maybe not.
The most important question, in my mind, is: IF the results of climate change will be as severe as some claim, WHY is it that no government anywhere on the planet seems to have any interest in adapting to said results? The Netherlands managed to keep the sea at bay for hundreds of years, why it is nothing is being done anywhere in the world (Miami comes to mind) to accomplish the same thing?
Nature says "Adapt or die!"

“More heat waves, no snow in the winter… Climate models… over 20 times more precise than the UN IPCC global models. In no other country do we have more precise calculations of climate consequences. They should form the basis for political planning… Temperatures in the wintertime will rise the most… there will be less cold air coming to Central Europe from the east…In the Alps winters will be 2°C warmer already between 2021 and 2050.”

Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, Hamburg, September 2, 2008.

No snow in winter is not a weather prediction ... It was a climate prediction. And it was wrong. Their 20 times more accurate climate models must be driven by garbage data. Garbage in = Garbage out. Mother Nature doesn't play nice with the globalist scheme of worldwide wealth redistribution using a climate crisis as the impetus.

As for the elevated levels of CO2 in the atmosphere, the levels were 3 times as high, upwards of 2000 ppm, prior to the industrial age. During that time, the earth thrived. People will either adapt or perish. Either way, I'm not signing myself up for economic slavery in the meantime.

You didn't read what I wrote in post 28.

No. When it is cold or hot, it doesn't say anything. AGW has to do with global trends.

I don't care if Antarctica gets to 100 degrees farennheit for a day. Unless it's a trend, it doesn't mean anything.
