The Top Ten
data-based
climate science
conclusions
presented at this:
"The Honest Global
Warming Chart" blog:
( sorry, no scary wild guess
predictions of a future
climate change catastrophe here,
as in the usual "climate change"
fiction in the mainstream media
-- that's junk science, not
real climate science )
(1)
Earth's current climate
is the best it has ever been,
for the well being of humans,
pets, and other animals,
in at least 300 years, and
possibly in thousands of years !
(2)
If we continue to add
CO2 to the atmosphere,
which I strongly favor
when done with modern
pollution controls,
the climate will eventually
be optimum for green plant
growth too.
( they prefer 800
to 1,200 parts per million
of CO2 in the air,
vs. 410 ppm today).
(3)
The claim that CO2 "controls
the climate" is not correct
-- it must is a minor variable,
because in most decades
since 1940, there was no
positive correlation
of CO2 levels and the global
average temperature
( using the best available
temperature measurements ).
(4)
No one can predict
the climate 100 years
in the future
... or 10 years
... or even 1 year
in the future,
because the causes
of climate change
are not known
with any precision.
As proof, we have
over 60 years
of predictions
of a coming
climate catastrophe
that were wrong.
(5)
The global average temperature
of Earth's surface has remained
in a narrow one degree C.
range since records were kept
139 years ago ( 1880 ).
Closer to a 0.5 degree C. range
based only on the raw data,
ignoring many questionable
“adjustments” of historical
temperature data,
made in recent decades.
( Note: the global temperature range
I used excludes brief, local heat peaks
from El Nino temperature spikes,
in 1998 and late 2015 / early 2016
-- El Nino's are natural, cyclical
heat releases from the Pacific Ocean,
not caused by CO2. )
(6)
A one degree C. global average
temperature range in 139 years
is unusually stable for a planet
where the climate is always
changing ( a planet not in
thermodynamic equilibrium) .
(7)
The claim that adding CO2
to the air will cause runaway
warming is science fraud.
In fact, it is not obvious
from the average temperature
data since 1940 that adding
man made CO2 has caused
any of the warming !
There WAS warming
from 1975 to 2003
in 'the era of
man made CO2',
since 1940.
But there was about
two-thirds as much
warming from 1910 to 1940,
from natural causes,
before 'the era of
man made CO2' began !
Nothing unusual happened
to the climate since 1940,
that looks different than
natural climate change,
but that fact does not stop
the man made CO2 climate
scaremongering.
(8)
During 'the era of man made CO2'
since 1940, the average global
temperature
declined
(1940 to 1975),
increased
(1975 to 2003),
barely changed
(2003 to 2018),
as CO2 increased
in every decade.
That doesn't look like
"settled science" to me !
If CO2 levels really controlled
the climate, every decade
would have had global warming !
(9)
The demonization of the
beneficial plant food, CO2,
foolishly takes attention
and funding away from
fighting REAL pollution
of the air, water and land,
which is especially bad in Asia.
(10)
Adding CO2 to the atmosphere
was, inadvertently, the best thing
humans have ever done
to improve our planet
… along with inventing:
indoor plumbing,
electricity,
central heating,
air conditioning,
and most important,
The Three Stooges !
