    Interesting rebuttal of the "hottest year on record" claim

    http://thefederalist.com/2015/01/19/...ear-on-record/

    From the article.

    “In the tiny little blip of geological time for which we have accurate surface temperature records, last year was pretty much the same as 2005 and 2010, continuing a plateau of global temperatures that has lasted nearly 20 years.”

    So while the past two decades were less than one degree warmer than the mean of the last 140 years the Earth is NOT heating at an accelerated rate. These factual observations are in stark contrast to the dire predictions made a decade ago by the same "scientists" asking for our trust now. Sorry climate "scientists" you blew your credibility on this matter.

    January 20 and it's snowing in Cleveland today.

    Sounds about right to me.

    And Strange, THAT is a great article. Thanks for posting.

    January 20th and it's 70 in Spartanburg, SC.

    That's about 15 degrees higher than average.

    DePaul is combating climate change with trees. Noble warriors there at DePaul. Trees.

    Good. We need more oxygen.

    Oh, but trees need CO2. That is the main global warmer right? If we stop Carbon Dioxide, trees die, right?

    Right?

    That is some of the least scientific (there is a glut of CO2 in the atmosphere now) and circuitous logic ever heard! There's enough CO2 in the air now that the entire surface of the Earth's land area could be covered with plants that "feed" themselves by photosynthesis. (Just not all trees.)

    75% of the oxygen comes from the ocean, so we need to pump the CO2 into the ocean. Better yet, lets just throw Jay Bilas and Dickie V into the ocean. Problem solved. #GENIUS

    Well I guess that evens out what Denver had in November, huh?

    - Denver: Lows of -13 on Nov. 12 and -14 on Nov. 13"
