This is the rare climate blog
where the editor -- me --
is willing to admit that
he has no idea what
the future climate will be ...
... but I know the climate
has significantly improved
from the late 1600s,
when it was very cold
and there were famines
due to the cold
-- it's very likely
we've had warming
of at least +2 degrees C.
since then.
People loved that warming,
so you can ignore the
false leftist claim that
+2 degrees C. of warming
will be a disaster --
because +2 degrees C.
has already happened,
and it was a blessing,
not a disaster.
Want something to worry about?
Don't pick the climate !
The climate is wonderful
and has been getting better
since the late 1600s.
More CO2 in the air ,
is also greening our planet,
with no negative side effects!
If CO2 causes
any warming,
then it is mild,
harmless warming,
mainly at night
in cool dry
higher latitudes,
such as in Alaska.
Do people in Alaska mind
that nights are warmer than
they were 35 years ago?
No, they love it !
