What happened to global warming?

Unbe­liev­ably that is the head­line from a BBC report.

This head­line may come as a bit of a sur­prise, so too might that fact that the warmest year recorded glob­ally was not in 2008 or 2007, but in 1998.

But it is true. For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures.

And our cli­mate mod­els did not fore­cast it, even though man-made car­bon diox­ide, the gas thought to be respon­si­ble for warm­ing our planet, has con­tin­ued to rise.

So what on Earth is going on?

Well, what has always been going on until Mann faked his hockey stick and the lies began.

Cli­mate change scep­tics, who pas­sion­ately and con­sis­tently argue that man’s influ­ence on our cli­mate is over­stated, say they saw it coming.

They argue that there are nat­ural cycles, over which we have no con­trol, that dic­tate how warm the planet is. But what is the evi­dence for this?

The scep­tics, so called “deniers” have always said that the planet warmed for a period, but not through human inter­ven­tion, now we are say­ing the planet is cool­ing but the real deniers are the warmists who say the trend is still up.

What is really inter­est­ing at the moment is what is hap­pen­ing to our oceans. They are the Earth’s great heat stores.

In the last few years [the Pacific Ocean] has been los­ing its warmth and has recently started to cool down

Accord­ing to research con­ducted by Pro­fes­sor Don East­er­brook from West­ern Wash­ing­ton Uni­ver­sity last Novem­ber, the oceans and global tem­per­a­tures are correlated.

The oceans, he says, have a cycle in which they warm and cool cycli­cally. The most impor­tant one is the Pacific decadal oscil­la­tion (PDO).

For much of the 1980s and 1990s, it was in a pos­i­tive cycle, that means warmer than aver­age. And obser­va­tions have revealed that global tem­per­a­tures were warm too.

But in the last few years it has been los­ing its warmth and has recently started to cool down.

These cycles in the past have lasted for nearly 30 years.

So could global tem­per­a­tures fol­low? The global cool­ing from 1945 to 1977 coin­cided with one of these cold Pacific cycles.

Pro­fes­sor East­er­brook says: “The PDO cool mode has replaced the warm mode in the Pacific Ocean, vir­tu­ally assur­ing us of about 30 years of global cooling.”

Nah sucks boo to you! Child­ish, I know, but it is what I have said all along, the Earth goes through cycles, the warmists deny all this and con­tinue to say that the trend is up when demon­stra­bly and mea­sur­ably it is not. The warmists how­ever con­tinue to deny the evi­dence instead point­ing to their increas­ingly proven flawed models.

The UK Met Office’s Hadley Cen­tre, respon­si­ble for future cli­mate pre­dic­tions, says it incor­po­rates solar vari­a­tion and ocean cycles into its cli­mate mod­els, and that they are noth­ing new.

In fact, the cen­tre says they are just two of the whole host of known fac­tors that influ­ence global tem­per­a­tures – all of which are accounted for by its models.

In addi­tion, say Met Office sci­en­tists, tem­per­a­tures have never increased in a straight line, and there will always be peri­ods of slower warm­ing, or even tem­po­rary cooling.

What is cru­cial, they say, is the long-term trend in global tem­per­a­tures. And that, accord­ing to the Met office data, is clearly up.

Do they think we are idiots? Of course those things hap­pen, it is called a CYCLE. But apart from the now widely dis­cred­ited Mann hockey stick I have seen no evi­dence to prove cat­e­gor­i­cally that the trend is up.

To con­fuse the issue even fur­ther, last month Mojib Latif, a mem­ber of the IPCC (Inter­gov­ern­men­tal Panel on Cli­mate Change) says that we may indeed be in a period of cool­ing world­wide tem­per­a­tures that could last another 10–20 years.

Pro­fes­sor Latif is based at the Leib­niz Insti­tute of Marine Sci­ences at Kiel Uni­ver­sity in Ger­many and is one of the world’s top cli­mate modellers.

But he makes it clear that he has not become a scep­tic; he believes that this cool­ing will be tem­po­rary, before the over­whelm­ing force of man-made global warm­ing reasserts itself.

Oh what a pathetic defence….it’s just a blip, don’t worry…or actu­ally worry like hell because the world is warm­ing real­lly, itis, because the trend is up our mod­els says so.

The only prob­lem for the warmist reli­gion­ists is that Al Gores pre­dic­tions of major inun­da­tion as a result of Global Warm­ing is going to prove to be lie that it is and espe­cially as the alleged rise in sea lev­els and the extent of the inun­da­tion and the time in which it will hap­pen will all prove to have been a lie.

Climtate CHange and the earth is warm­ing are a fraud, a myth and a hoax being per­pe­trated on the global pop­u­la­tion almost as though it was planned as a giant Ponzi scheme. Cer­tainly an ETS is a Ponzi scheme. It is time to halt daft Nick Smith and his ilk.
