Did we miss this? 2014 was the warmest year on record

[Matt1970]

Obviously, handing over your money to Gore and others like him will surely fix the problem. That, and giving more control to the EPA and other government agencies to jack up the price of electricity, that will fix it too.

Sure, once Gore keeps another $300 Million maybe he will start to use some of it for good.

Article after article lately showing how the official temperature records have been "adjusted" numerous times by different agencies to achieve a desired result and the climate cultists are still on board. This nation excels at producing useful idiots.

You are a living, breathing example of one, lol.

Yeah they have been adjusted many times to achieve the desired result. The desired result of an accurate temperature record. The data needs to be adjusted for changes in the collected data. If you are taking the temperature at a different time of the day, you move the station, the surrounding areas change,...

I think the only way that global warming can be stopped/reversed is for the world to go back to the pre-electric power/fuel powered automobile days. I don't see this happening in the US or anywhere else as no one wants to give up the things that makes their lives better or easier.

How about we just cutting down trees? Or you big city aholes can plant some, or even grass on the top of your skyscrapers.

No way it was. The year was cold as hell. Freezing jan-april 2014 and sure as hell wasn't warm. Besides, at most we're talking like the world being like 1-2 degrees warmer. You guys can't handle one more degree??

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Yeah, 'cause there's no cost to any of this, it's all just magical fairy dust that will make everything better. How could anyone be opposed??

right cause polluting the air, waters, land, etc is really, really, really, long term fiscally sound. You fucking bafoon.

The most drastic change would be urbanization causing a heat island effect. However this would cause the measured temperature to be higher than it otherwise would be, and would have to be adjusted down. So the question is why are these being adjusted up? (serious question)

Mostly two differently things.

IMO, all this fuss over CO2 is distracting us from more serious issues of heavy metals, fertilizer pollution in the Gulf of Mexico and the giant plastic trash vortex in the Pacific.

Biggest problem is energy. Simply unsustainable to keep using fossil fuels, and renewables are STILL just a tiny fraction of world primary energy. Even if CO2 were of zero concern, there should STILL be a move away from fossil fuels as they get more and more depleted.

I don't recall seeing this in a thread.

No wasn't missed.

The resident P&Ners don't believe facts.

Those also.

I don't think I'm going to be around much longer to worry about it anyway, I guess I really don't these days.

Climate change deniers are akin to holocaust deniers.

 

[Atreus21]

Climate change deniers are akin to holocaust deniers.

Yeah, because denying millions of deaths from a genocidal rampage is no different than skepticism of science's ability to predict armageddon.

Statements like these are why skeptics remain skeptics.

Nah. It's true. Climate change deniers are akin to holocaust deniers.

Worst case scenario: what if we make the world a better place for nothing?

 

[Moonbeam]

Just another example of how the CBD is destroying the world.

please name one thing you want to do and how it's going to make the world a better place

Climate change is not up to one person to attempt to reduce the negative impact. I understand what you're trying to do and it's fuckin stupid.

 

[MongGrel]

Yeah, because denying millions of deaths from a genocidal rampage is no different than skepticism of science's ability to predict armageddon.

Statements like these are why skeptics remain skeptics.

And yet with all the evidence of the Holocaust, the Nasa Moon Landing, etc, there are still just people that cannot look at realistic facts and make rational judgements I guess.

Explains a lot of things in the world.

It snowed at my house last year. Global warming not found.

No way it was. The year was cold as hell. Freezing jan-april 2014 and sure as hell wasn't warm. Besides, at most we're talking like the world being like 1-2 degrees warmer. You guys can't handle one more degree??

We have a WINNAR!

 

[Jaskalas]

2014 was the warmest year on record

It statistically did not happen.

“The HadCRUT4 dataset (compiled by the Met Office and the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit) shows last year was 0.56C (±0.1C) above the long-term (1961-1990) average. Nominally this ranks 2014 as the joint warmest year in the record, tied with 2010, but the uncertainty ranges mean it’s not possible to definitively say which of several recent years was the warmest.”

In short, your record is smaller than the margin of error.
Ergo, one "record" year is indistinguishable from another.

Satellite records do not agree.

And it continues....

:hmm:

[werepossum]

No.

I can still remember how I excited I was when mankind figured out how to measure temperature. In 1970.
