Sure enough, before Christmas, a report from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was greeted with such headlines as “Hottest Arctic on record triggers massive ice melt”. In March we had the BBC trumpeting another study that blamed vanishing Arctic ice as the cause of weather which led to the worst-ever smog in Beijing, warning that it “could even threaten the Beijing Winter Olympics in 2022”. But last week we were brought back to earth by the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI), as charted by our friend Paul Homewood on his blog Notalotofpeopleknowthat, with the news that ever since December temperatures in the Arctic have consistently been lower than minus 20 C. In April the extent of Arctic... Poster Comment: What to do, oh what to do? I've got it! Pump more co2 into the atmosphere to see if it will warm things up. Only left-wing loons buy into this global warming nonsense.

Average, ambient surface temperatures are rising everywhere on the planet. Like you I dispute the notion that the single, direct cause is by human interaction such as emissions of CO2. But you and everyone must agree that climate change is REAL.

Yes. We call them seasons and climate cycles here in Texas. Not sure what they call them in the blue states?
Based on what data? The 'climategate' data? Or noaa's latest fraud? Where do you get 'data' from?
What is the definition of REAL? Climate change has been happening since the planet formed and right now we are in an interglacial period, some ten thousand years ago warming began without human influence and has continued interrupted by brief periods of volcano induced freeze. perhaps instead of defining REAL we should try defining NORMAL. There is no normal in regard to climate there are periods of stability observed generationally. I refute average ambient temperatures are rising everywhere, they are observed to rise in some places and averages are a cheat anyway. I acknowledge that it doesn't snow frequently where I live and it used to snow more frequently 150 years ago but then we only have a few observations to go on. On this continent they built a massive hydoelectric scheme relying on snow fall and snow fall has been less than their expectations, I think someone missled someone regarding climate and I want my money back
