Global warming? No, actually we're cooling, claim scientists

"It now seems to be gaining traction elsewhere in the media, including in a story in the Telegraph (which seems to be largely copied from the Mail)..."
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Yeah, it is supposed to be a high of 69 degrees tomorrow...WOW!

Well, that proves it!  You are such a simpleton...   :rolleyes:

Nice try...but it is just a spin by a blogger who makes people like you think it means something....

Fact is: Arctic sea ice up 60 percent in 2013.




Get your facts straight. The COVERAGE is up but the THICKNESS, thus TOTAL MASS/VOLUME is at a new low.

The thickness of the Arctic's ice was whittled to a new winter low, according to data from the European Space Agency's CryoSat mission. The ice's volume, less than 15,000 cubic km between March and April, is a new data point in the long chronicle of Arctic ice decline, a process that scientists expect could be catastrophic for the planet.

The news from the ESA comes days after scientists reported that the ice's decline this summer was less dramatic than the shrinkage during last year's summer minimum. Rather than marking the resurgence of the Arctic ice, as some British newspapers have erroneously reported, the smaller-than-expected decline in breadth is understood by scientists as a small blip in what is otherwise a long-term ebbing of the ice.

And just as the ice is becoming less extensive, it is also becoming thinner – a trend that scientists point to as the most indicative sign that climate change is taking a toll on the Arctic.

What the fuck did you expect? We have been telling you this for years. When the Arctic ice cap finally totally melts and reverses the Gulf Stream, most of North America and Northern Europe will be a deep freeze.

PIOMAS shows Arctic sea ice volume to be 45% higher than a year ago, and 19% higher than 2 years ago.

See what I mean?  The only difference between having this conversation here and having it with a rock is that the rock can't breed with another stupid rock creating even more and even stupider rocks.

Yet you continue to have the conversations.........kind of makes you wonder who the stupid fucker is.

Got a source for that?

Oh, WAIT!!!!!

Ex already posted their data and it shows .....

He may or may not technically have lied but I still don't think he understands the difference between year-to-year differences and the undeniable and consistent downward trend over the past 30 years.

According to an EXPERT in this field, Judith Curry...she states "there is mounting evidence that Arctic ice levels are cyclical. Data uncovered by climate historians show that there was a massive melt in the 1920s and 1930s, followed by intense re-freezes that ended only in 1979 – the year the IPCC says that shrinking began."

From Scientific American:

"(Judith Curry) still has no doubt that the planet is warming, that human-generated greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, are in large part to blame, or that the plausible worst-case scenario could be catastrophic."
