30 Inches of Snow in Washington!

polar shift.

The Earth's crust floats on top of an ocean of lava.

Bingo!

Earth is heating up lately, but so are Mars, Pluto and other worlds in our solar system, leading some scientists to speculate that a change in the sun’s activity is the common thread linking all these baking events.

Exactly.

The Sun is sort of what hold it all together, and our planet is always subject to occurrences from space.

Another day another global warming scam retraction....

"Climate scientists withdraw journal claims of rising sea levels: Study claimed in 2009 that sea levels would rise by up to 82cm by the end of century – but the report's author now says true estimate is still unknown"

From the same article

Siddall said that he did not know whether the retracted paper's estimate of sea level rise was an overestimate or an underestimate.

From the same article

Which means..."he does not know" period.

Announcing the formal retraction of the paper from the journal, Siddall said: "It's one of those things that happens. People make mistakes and mistakes happen in science."

End of story.

 

[Garfield1966]

From the same article.

Many scientists criticised the IPCC approach as too conservative, and several papers since have suggested that sea level could rise more. Martin Vermeer of the Helsinki University of Technology, Finland and Stefan Rahmstorf of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany published a study in December that projected a rise of 0.75m to 1.9m by 2100.

It was 60 degrees here in Ga. today and I can see the Global Warming, err Climate Change conspirarist popping their heads out of the snow !

From the same article.

Cherry pick much?

"One mistake was a miscalculation; the other was not to allow fully for temperature change over the past 2,000 years. Because of these issues we have retracted the paper and will now invest in the further work needed to correct these mistakes."

In the Nature Geoscience retraction, in which Siddall and his colleagues explain their errors, Vermeer and Rahmstorf are thanked for "bringing these issues to our attention".

In case those furry eyes of yours has a comprehension problem. repeat the last sentence till it finally soaks in.

Weather change and climate change are different things.

Its amazing how the supposed "science" of global warming is more like a cult. Even when faced with the facts, they cant/dont want to believe it. Numbers don't lie. People with political and financial motives do.

Yes it is. It always has changed. It always will change. Regardless of human activity.

 

[Garfield1966]

You accusing someone of cherry picking is hilarious.

The quote I posted was referring to a separate study which claim the original study was being to conservative.

A retraction of the study in the OP does not mean that the rest of the science is flawed.

As for GA weather, who cares. We had the 2nd largest snow fall in DFW 2 weeks ago. he climate change is based on average temperatures. Not highs and lows. The average temperature is increasing. Why is the question.

I just don't get why we are so hell bent on not wanting to reduce pollution. Regardless of whether or not it affects the global environment, it does affect our health. It increases the risk of asthma, increases acid rain as well as numerous other problems. GW aside, there are tons of other reasons to limit pollution out put and to look at clean power sources.

Only in a liberal/progressive/cultist world perhaps. Don't like the facts even when the scientists admit that the theory is flawed?

 

[Garfield1966]

The study was linked in the article you posted. If you don't like it don't post it. Not my problem.

You are claiming that GW does not exist. I am saying I don't know. I am open to the evidence. You are already decided.

Evidence? Like the evidence that it was all a scam? And now that the scientists are exposed they are retracting to save they arses? That enough evidence for you? lol
