More "global warming". I notice the GW doomsterists don't notice when it gets cold. <“Pretty much everyone in the county will be freezing,” said Mark Moede, a Weather Service meteorologist in San Diego

The record cold nighttime weather is forecast to continue for the rest of the week, though last night was expected to be the coldest, he said. Temperatures around the county included 25 at Poway and 31 at Miramar according to The Weather Channel.....

It is very, very lucky that people got all that CO2 into the air. Without it, the planet would now be ice-aged.

Despite increasing CO2 levels by 30%, we have only managed to hold the world's temperature at the same level as it was 100 years ago.

That's scary, because we aren't going to be able to keep the CO2 production rate up as the population drops over this century. So CO2 levels will start to decrease as the biosphere strips the CO2 out and dumps it on the ocean floor.

So far, so good though. At least the Arctic ice is melting which will help warm things as the reflection from snow will be replaced by absorption of heat into the dark blue ocean.
