This is what the "warmunists"
actually claim, believe it or not
... and it is very hard to believe:
1940:
Natural climate change stops after 4.5 billion years of natural global warming and cooling (mainly cooling, and declining atmospheric CO2 levels) !
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
1940:
Man made 'aerosols' suddenly dominate the climate.
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
We had global cooling from 1940 to 1975.
1975:
Man made aerosols suddenly 'disappear'.
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
1975:
Man made CO2 suddenly dominates the climate.
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
We had global warming from 1975 to 2000:
(mainly in the 1990s):
2000:
Man made CO2 goes on a temporary 'vacation'.
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation)
We had a flat average temperature trend from 2000 to 2015.
2015 / 2016:
A warming spike -- the cause is a natural, temporary “El Nino” (a cyclical Pacific Ocean heat release).
Warmunists bellow about the heat, but don't mention the cause is natural, the heat is local, and it is temporary,
We had a global warming spike in 2015 and 2016 caused by local El Nino warming in the Pacific Ocean.
The 2015/2016 El Nino warming peak global average temperature was only +0.1 degrees C, warmer than the peak of the equally strong 1998 El Nino warming peak, 17 years earlier:
2017 to 20xx:
Global warming is expected to return,
with manmade CO2 expected
to be dominating the climate again.
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
20xx (decades in the future):
Runaway global warming becomes unstoppable.
- Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
2xxx (hundreds of years in the future):
The end of all life on Earth !
-Explanation: "Because we say so" (no explanation).
