Jesus you two are fucking idiots exhibiting, yet again, another fine example of cherry picking a small subset of data to come to the wider conclusion you want. It would almost be impressive if it weren't so transparent.

The article from Wattsupwiththat, a known shill for the fossil industry, is laughable. His evidence that Mann and Steig are wrong is because he says that two diagrams look similar. The paper he quotes does not, anywhere, contradict climate change models, and in fact warns that a combination of climate change and volcanic activity could accelerate melting even further.

Anthony Watts, the ex-radio host, and not in any way qualified, is pulling things out of his arse - as usual.

As for mistermack - he thinks climate change isn't happening because Summers and Winters don't seem different to him.

Well I can use my own personal anecdote to say that Summers where I live are constantly cloudy and we don't get the scorchers we used to. That Winters have become a mild affair and I haven't seen any snow since the 90s. That flowers are blooming early and that 3 New Years Day's ago I walked down the beach in t-shirt and shorts while kids played on the beach and swam in the sea. That we can still pick magic mushrooms up 'til mid December where they used to be killed off in early November.

If only there was a robust, objective way of measuring if there are any actual changes in the climate over a long period. Some sort of method of collecting data and comparing and contrasting them with other data sets of separate but related data sets. :ask:

Hmmm. Watt seems to think that warming on the temperatures on the surface of the Antartic was acfected by volcanic activity 4km down.

Can anyone comment on this? Seems unlikely.

In my part of the world, summers feel the same as they always did, and winters just the same too.
No wonder you don't know how science works, if you think that personal anecdote trumps objective evidence.
But of course, the evidence is everywhere. Australia is hot, and that's never happened before.
:fp: The last handful of years haven't happened before (in modern times). Each successive year has been hotter than all previous years.

So climate change is real, but don't expect that YOU will ever notice anything.

Bit like Jesus is real, but YOU will never see him.

In both cases, you just have to take the word of some extremely fanatical people. You know it makes sense.

Yes, because scientists are fanatics. :fp:

(Oh, and if you lived in Australia you would certainly have noticed how much hotter it's been the last few years)

Ocean levels have risen a huge amount, even though you can't see it.

It's lucky that the IPCC is there to keep telling us, because otherwise, it would be easy to forget just how hot we are. :D

But of course, the evidence is everywhere. Australia is hot, and that's never happened before. Parts of California are hot and dry, especially Death Valley. And there are forest fires in damp freezing countries like Portugal.
This is scary stuff, the like of which the world has never seen the like of which.

Stop the planet, I need to get off !

Not a bit like the "climate scientists" predicting more extreme weather then.

More hurricanes, more tornadoes, more heatwaves, more floods. Nothing confusing about the message at all.

Still, fuck the climate, so long as the weather is all right. :funny:

Yeah, just keep telling yourself that the weather outside you're window is the climate if that helps

Wow! That's as shit as saying, "I ain't ever seen no cat turn into no dog."

Don't embarrass yourself with shit arguments.

Meanwhile; more hurricanes.

More everything else.

This shit is getting so easy to debunk now denialists just look like drooling, failed gunshot suicide victims.
