The truth is out. Climate-denying trolls prowl the web spewing nonsense and obfuscating the truth about climate change...

<SNIP!>

Gary and Vlad, we now know who you work for...

I am sure that with the right psychotherapies you can work on that paranoia of yours. Environmentally friendly wind powered electroshock perhaps?

Re: The One and Only Climate Change thread...

Fun with figures. Gary, you are missing the point. The Arctic is 21 degrees Celcius warmer than normal, for the last entire MONTH. That is changing the jet streams and weather patterns around the world. Forget about "normal" weather moving forward; we live in a different world now (climate wise)...

I'm confused. If someone pointed out that region X was Y degrees cooler over the last month wouldn't you rebut that the long-term trends are important? So how is any warming in a region over the course of a month relevant when talking climate change?

You remind me of Swartz on Hogan's heroes; although he was more honest than you since he admitted that he knew nothing...

It was Schultz not Swartz.

Carbon dioxide driven climate change is a dog that won't hunt anymore. Paying twenty times the going rate for electricity is a losing proposition for the provincial Liberals. There will be no more of those contracts signed once their term of office has ended.

Re: The One and Only Climate Change thread...

There might be some problems in the South too. The maple syrup production will cease in the South if the climate change trend is the same.

Several years ago Toronto observed several times +15-+20C temperature in January. This year it was -20C. A good swing :D

A bit chilly.

The maple trees in this area have become quite large. They are being cut down. People don't want a 75 foot tree in their yard, it seems.

Personally, I'm allergic to Maple trees and syrup so don't much care about that aspect.

Re: The One and Only Climate Change thread...

Read the link again; this temperature variation is extremely significant. The volcano last year was so small the ejecta did not even reach the stratosphere so there is no effect on climate.

You don't even appear to be trying to keep current on volcanoes and the problems they cause. Here's an article from todays national newspaper, The Globe and Mail. Volcanoes are more significant than you appear to realize.

You need to read and listen to a bit more.

LWhen was the last time you were in Nanuvat or some of the other northern places you're so worried about?

Looks who's talking about honesty. What a joke you are. When was the last time you were in Nanuvat or some of the other northern places you're so worried about?

All you have to know is this, sonny. Some days it's warm. Some days it's cold. Some days it rains or snows.

I don't consider polticians who want to spend a lot of my money on climate change and global warming to be very smart. I won't vote for them. The federal election and upcoming provincial election here in Ontario should be very kind to the Conservatives. I don't normally vote conservative but will be doing so.

Gary, you are missing the point. The Arctic is 21 degrees Celcius warmer than normal, for the last entire MONTH.

21 degrees C is around 40 degrees F. per day for one month It's looks to me like either a lot of fun with figures or one very large outlier.

With the volcano eruprtion last year I wouldn't be reading too much into temperature changes in the region.

Come Ontario election time this fall, I'll be voting for change.

Re: The One and Only Climate Change thread...

I think the link is a lot of that is fun with figures.

Whale Cove is in Nanuvat and I don't think we have to worry about the Polar Bears finding ice.

Why don't you get hold of those politicians? I clearly tell the pollsters who phone I won't vote for a green platform. Mostly the green agenda is an attempt to part the voters from their money, freedom of choice and ability to do things they want to do.

Are you enjoying the weather in Southern Ontario? Did you get a sun burn today or was it wind burn?

I don't do Facebook and Twitter. Waste of time.
