CFACT Offers Up Four Inconvenient Facts About ‘Climate Change’

As tens of thousands of Warmists hob-nob in Paris for the latest Conference on the Parties, the 21st edition, spewing out vast amounts of “carbon pollution”, there are lots of facts that inconvenient, and glossed over. We could note that these same members of the Cult of Climastrology fail to live the lives they say Everyone Else should be forced to live. We could note that everything seems to be aimed not at fixing the climate (as if that could really happen, except in a fiction book or Warmist computer model. Same thing), but in finding ways to redistribute wealth and institute lots of restrictions on people, private entities, and economies. And then there are these four, as written by CFACT. Of course, we know Warmists will attack the messenger, not rebut the message

“Global climate trend since Nov. 16, 1978: +0.11 C per decade” – University of Alabama, Huntsville

“The troposphere has not warmed as fast as almost all climate models predict.” “After 1998, the observations are likely to be below the simulated values, indicating that the simulation as a whole are predicting too much warming.” – Remote Sensing Systems

“Satellite analysis of the upper atmosphere is more accurate, and should be adopted as the standard way to monitor global temperature change.” – NASA, April, 1990

There are many other quote, but, my favorite is that last one. Oh, and

All countries’ commitments from Paris = less than 0.05°C difference by the end of the century.

So, essentially, per modeling, no statistically significant change.

We also learn that sea rise is only 1mm to 3mm per year. This is not dangerous, it is not accelerating, and it is well within the average of sea rise over the last 7,000 years, when the great melting from the last glacial age ended. In a normal Holocene warm period, we should be seeing much more sea rise than is occurring.

Polar bear populations are up, the Arctic is not melting away, nor is Antarctica.

Extreme weather? Not happening. If anything, some types of “extreme weather” are actually down. Even the IPCC admitted in their 5th assessment report

“There is not enough evidence at present to suggest more than low confidence in a global-scale observed trend in drought or dryness (lack of rainfall) since the middle of the 20th century.

Virtually nothing that is happening in the world is the fault of human caused warming from carbon dioxide output. Human output of greenhouse gases has a minimal effect on the global atmosphere. This doesn’t mean Mankind has no effect. Things like ocean pollution, land use, and the Urban Heat Island effect have quite a bit of influence on perceived climate, as do the massaging of data. But, there is nothing dangerous going, there is nothing that hasn’t happened before during other Holocene warm periods going on, and we’re not all doomed. The computer models have failed, the global temperature is not going to shoot up a “best case” scenario of 1.2C (3.6F) by 2100, nor the worst cases offered.

It’s not a science, it’s a political movement. Nothing more, nothing less.
