Opinion The madness of the #ParisAgreement on climate Guest essay by Iain Aitken The December 2015 COP21 Climate Conference in Paris, in which 40,000 delegates from 196 countries flew in (and imagine the carbon dioxide emissions all that travel created) and finally agreed an ‘historic’ document that legally committed nobody to any carbon dioxide emission reductions, simply repeated the failure of the Lima…

80 Charts that Show Global Warming Hysteria Is a Fraud From the No Tricks Zone come 80 charts, with lots of commentary, that refute the liberals’ politically-motivated, fake news about climate. Last year there were at least 60 peer-reviewed papers published in scientific journals demonstrating that today’s warming isn’t global, unprecedented, or remarkable. Just within the last 5 months, 58 more papers and 80 new graphs have been published that continue to undermine the popularized conception of a slowly cooling Earth temperature history followed by a dramatic hockey-stick-shaped uptick, or an especially unusual global-scale warming during modern times. *** Succinctly, then, scientists publishing in peer-reviewed journals have increasingly affirmed that there is nothing historically unprecedented or remarkable about today’s climate when viewed in the context of long-term natural variability. Most people don’t realize, apparently, that we are living in a relatively cool era. Global temperatures have been warmer than they are now something like 90% of the time since the end of the last Ice Age. So future warming is–we hope!–a possibility. Here are a few of the charts, with some commentary. An average of 15 reconstructions of temperatures in the very recent past, the last 900 years: Here are Northern Hemisphere temperatures over the last 2,000 years. Note the Little Ice Age, from which we are now, happily, recovering: There are many temperature charts. We can’t begin to summarize them, we can only offer a couple more as examples. Here are temperatures in Scandinavia over the last 1,000 years: This one shows the global mean temperature since 1900, with no apparent heating since 1920. This chart uses the “linear-statistical PSM [proxy system models]” approach: There are many more, and there is no point in trying to summarize them. The bottom line is that science marches on, and the left-wing opportunists and their politically-motivated hysteria are being left in the dust.
