Earth just experienced one of the warmest years on record

Meanwhile, there’s more news on the steadily melting glaciers of the world.

Trump’s response was to happily announce in the SOTU the increased production of oil and coal. That was met by wild applause and a standing O by the Republicans at the SOTU.

We must face reality - GOP ignorance is literally destroying our planet.

And yet fossil fuels kept millions of people from freezing to death this winter when the planet DIDN'T [Unwelcome language removed] WARM. I guess some hack's OPINION of the planet (which has been [Unwelcome language removed] debunked over and over again) is more important than keeping people from freezing to death.

Nobody can destroy the planet. But you morons are certainly trying to destroy the American economy. Thank GOD there aren't that many of you idiots, and that most of the voters are illegal aliens who are about to get deported.

We'd be really screwed, otherwise.

Yes because we all know that if we can't go banck to the big bang that any data we collect will be incomplete and therefore not mean anything.

So by all means, let's just *edited* the American economy based on the OPINION of some hack on George Soros's payroll.

And you wonder why everybody laughs at *edited* liberal morons.

You can't spell MORON without the (R). The economy does far better under Democratic Presidents than republicans ones.

Hey - check out the pretty graph if you don't understand the big words.

Your incoherent rant does not change the fact your Cult has no clue how warm the Earth was millions of years ago.................not even 200 years ago.

The surprises began almost as soon as a camera was lowered into the first borehole, around December 1. The undersides of ice shelves are usually smooth due to gradual melting. But as the camera passed through the bottom of the hole, it showed the underside of the ice adorned with a glittering layer of flat ice crystals—like a jumble of snowflakes—evidence that in this particular place, sea water is actually freezing onto the base of the ice instead of melting it.


“It blew our minds,” says Christina Hulbe, a glaciologist from the University of Otago in New Zealand, who co-led the expedition. The Ross Ice Shelf is considered more stable, at present, than many of West Antarctica’s other floating shelves—and this observation could help explain that: if a few inches of sea water periodically freezes onto the bottom of its ice, this could buffer it from thinning more rapidly.

Uh, snowflake. I thought the planet was WARMING?

https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/obama-trump-booming-economy/

For eight years, President Obama presided over the worst economic recovery in modern times. For six years, he blamed Republicans in Congress for thwarting his spending agenda and hampering growth. In his last two years in office, he claimed that 2% growth was the best we could hope for. And in his last year in office, while the economy was again stalling out, Obama claimed that Trump's tax cuts and deregulation would only make things worse.


But now that we're in the midst of a booming economy — which kicked in after Trump reversed almost all Obama's economic policies — we're supposed to believe that it's Obama who deserves all the credit.

The two key measures that mark a depression or expansion are jobs and production. Let's look at the records that were set. Creation of jobs. From November 1982, when President Ronald Reagan's new economic program was beginning to take effect, to November 1989, 18.7 million new jobs were created. It was a world record: Never before had so many jobs been created during a comparable time period. The new jobs covered the entire spectrum of work, and more than half of them paid more than $20,000 a year. As total employment grew to 119.5 million, the rate of unemployment fell to slightly over 5 percent, the lowest level in 15 years. Creation of wealth.

The amount of wealth produced during this seven year period was stupendous - some $30 trillion worth of goods and services. Again, it was a world record. Never before had so much wealth been produced during a comparable period. According to a recent study, net asset values - including stocks, bonds and real estate - went up by more than $5 trillion between 1982 and 1989, an increase of roughly 50 percent.

There are other important measures. Steady economic growth. As we begin the decade of the 1990's, we are in our 86th straight month of economic growth - a new record for peacetime, five months longer than the wartime growth of World War II and only 23 months short of the wartime record set during the Vietnam War in the 1960's. Most experts now predict that it will last right through 1990, and perhaps beyond.

https://5minuteeconomist.com/which-presidents-were-best-and-worst-for-the-us-economy.html
So Ronald Reagan leads the pack with an astounding 15% increase in the EPI from when he took office until he handed the reins to George H.W. Bush.

https://www.heritage.org/taxes/report/the-real-reagan-economic-record-responsible-and-successful-fiscal-policy

No matter how advocates of big government try to rewrite history, Ronald Reagan's record of fiscal responsibility continues to stand as the most successful economic policy of the 20th century.

well, it was upper 70's yesterday, 70's today with a bit of rain and upper 70's again tomorrow and 60's next week so evidently Gorebalbal Cooling returning

not even the norm for first of Feb
You seriously dont the know the difference between weather and climate do you?

How embarrassing.

No it isn't. The predictions were for sea levels to rise and Miami be underwater in 20 years. That was made in 1995.

Miami is still there.

Sorry Global Warming Alarmists, The Earth Is Cooling
Climate change itself is already in the process of definitively rebutting climate alarmists who think human use of fossil fuels is causing ultimately catastrophic global warming. That is because natural climate cycles have already turned from warming to cooling, global temperatures have already been declining for more than 10 years, and global temperatures will continue to decline for another two decades or more.

In 2000, the UN’s IPCC predicted that global temperatures would rise by 1 degree Celsius by 2010. Was that based on climate science, or political science to scare the public into accepting costly anti-industrial regulations and taxes?


Don Easterbrook, Professor Emeritus of Geology at Western Washington University, knew the answer. He publicly predicted in 2000 that global temperatures would decline by 2010. He made that prediction because he knew the PDO had turned cold in 1999, something the political scientists at the UN’s IPCC did not know or did not think significant.


Well, the results are in, and the winner is….Don Easterbrook. Easterbrook also spoke at the Heartland conference, with a presentation entitled “Are Forecasts of a 20-Year Cooling Trend Credible?” Watch that online and you will see how scientists are supposed to talk: cool, rational, logical analysis of the data, and full explanation of it. All I ever see from the global warming alarmists, by contrast, is political public relations, personal attacks, ad hominem arguments, and name calling, combined with admissions that they can’t defend their views in public debate.


Easterbrook shows that by 2010 the 2000 prediction of the IPCC was wrong by well over a degree, and the gap was widening. That’s a big miss for a forecast just 10 years away, when the same folks expect us to take seriously their predictions for 100 years in the future. Howard Hayden, Professor of Physics Emeritus at the University of Connecticut showed in his presentation at the conference that based on the historical record a doubling of CO2 could be expected to produce a 2 degree C temperature increase. Such a doubling would take most of this century, and the temperature impact of increased concentrations of CO2 declines logarithmically. You can see Hayden’s presentation online as well.

Don't ya just HATE getting your ass kicked in every argument, snowflake?

Why is it when you liberals lose an argument, you change the subject? Dawg mentioned temperatures and you bring up this idiotic question about weather versus climate?

Secondly, do you think you're the first liberal to come up with that idiotic comparison: "You don't know the difference between weather and climate, so I win I win I win I win."

To bring your pea brain up to speed, climate is a period of time of certain weather patterns. 100 years of cold winters in Wisconsin and warm summers in Florida is a weather pattern.

If humans can't even redirect a Category [Unwelcome language removed] Five Hurricane or weaken it before it devastates land area, HOW IN THE NAME OF ZEUS'S BUTTHOLE CAN HUMANS CHANGE A 100-YEAR WEATHER PATTERN, WHICH IS ALSO DEFINED AS CLIMATE?

If humans cannot even warm a small town in the winter, HOW THE FUKKKK CAN HUMANS CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE OF AN ENTIRE PLANET, ONE WHERE THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE SURFACE IS WATER?

Or did you drop out of third grade before seeing your first globe?

So far, you left wing morons continue to lose arguments to the mainstream conservatives here.
One would think you'd get tired of that.

Then again, you libtools were never very bright.
