I could find Google posts to refute everyone of your posts you have posted. Google the insane predictions made the "global experts " that have been predicted and have been wildly wrong. Do it, post them here Chuck and be honest how wrong they were. I bet you don't have the honesty to do so.I'll help you out on the kerry thing, he senate floor and predicted the demise of the artic ice cap in 5 years. Now square that with the 2016 global warming expedition stuck in the ice. How's the math work on that Chuck? I could post a long list of the colossal wrong predictions and outright lies that have not come to pass by the mainstream "experts". Post them up Chuck can you be honest on where they have gone way wrong? copy and paste from a google search had some surprises. cleaned it up. your challenge was a google search of the items I listed. Not a personally select google search designed to give you bad info. #3 google " are The sea level rising." https://www.skepticalscience.com/sea-level-rise.htm Quote:Current sea level rise is after all not exaggerated, in fact the opposite case is more plausible. Observational data and changing conditions in such places as Greenland suggest if there's a real problem here it's underestimation of future sea level rise. IPCC synthesis reports offer conservative projections of sea level increase based on assumptions about future behavior of ice sheets and glaciers, leading to estimates of sea level roughly following a linear upward trend mimicking that of recent decades. In point of fact, observed sea level rise is already above IPCC projections http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/sealevel.html Quote:There is strong evidence that global sea level is now rising at an increased rate and will continue to rise during this century.

Reports from around the world compiled by the Worldwatch Institute (see attached data table) show that global ice melting accelerated during the 1990s-which was also the warmest decade on record. https://nsidc.org/cryosphere/quickfacts/icesheets.html Quote:The mass of ice in the Greenland Ice Sheet has begun to decline. From 1979 to 2006, summer melt on the ice sheet increased by 30 percent, reaching a new record in 2007. At higher elevations, an increase in winter snow accumulation has partially offset the melt. However, the decline continues to outpace accumulation because warmer temperatures have led to increased melt and faster glacier movement at the island's edges. To learn more about research on the Greenland Ice Sheet, visit former CIRES Director Konrad Steffen's research Web page. http://e360.yale.edu/feature/abrupt_sea_level_rise_realistic_greenland_antarctica/2990/ Quote:The planet’s polar ice is melting fast, and recent satellite data, models, and fieldwork have left scientists sobered by the speed of the sea level rise we should expect over the coming decades. Although researchers have long projected that the planet’s biggest ice sheets and glaciers will wilt in the face of rising temperatures, estimates of the rate of that change keep going up. When the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) put out its last report in 2013, the consensus was for under a meter (3.3 feet) of sea level rise by 2100. In just the last few years, at least one modeling study suggests we might need to double that. RE: Record Breaking Weather - chuck white - 07-28-2016 Pig Challenge #5 Google "have Hurricanes increased in intensity" https://www.wunderground.com/education/webster.asp Quote:The incredible onslaught of the Hurricane Season of 2005, with its unparalleled number of Category 5 hurricanes--four--and the strongest hurricane ever recorded--Wilma--brought up the urgent question--how much of this was due to global warming? The remarkable Hurricane Season of 2005 coincided with the publication of two landmark papers that made a case for a connection between global warming and the strength of the most powerful hurricanes. In September 2005, a paper published in Science magazine reported that worldwide, the number of Category 4 and 5 hurricanes had increased 80% in the past 30 years. https://weather.com/science/environment/news/climate-change-study-changing-intensity-number-hurricanes Quote:A new report finds climate change is likely impacting hurricane season in two contradictory ways. https://www.skepticalscience.com/hurricanes-global-warming.htm RE: Record Breaking Weather - chuck white - 07-29-2016 Pig challenge #6 google "Species gone extinct as a result of climate change." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/jun/14/first-case-emerges-of-mammal-species-wiped-out-by-human-induced-climate-change Quote:Human-caused climate change appears to have driven the Great Barrier Reef’s only endemic mammal species into the history books http://www.endangeredspeciesinternational.org/overview.html Quote:As unbelievable as it may sound, after having read through the five mass extinctions, the sixth mass extinction is in progress, now, with animals going extinct 100 to 1,000 times (possibly even 1,000 to 10,000 times) faster than at the normal background extinction rate, RE: Record Breaking Weather - tvguy - 07-29-2016 (07-29-2016, 01:01 PM)chuck white Wrote: Pig challenge the sixth mass extinction is in progress, now, with animals going extinct 100 to 1,000 times (possibly even 1,000 to 10,000 times) faster than at the normal background extinction rate, Al Gore said as much in a book I read. Yes Wonky I read a book RE: Record Breaking Weather - cletus1 - 07-29-2016 What gets me are people like OL and Capitalist pig love to point out how Al Gore was off the mark with some predictions. They do not like talking about the melting glaciers or shrinking ice packs. So, here is my question to CP: Do you think man made climate change is a hoax. I only ask so that I put you in with the other bubble boys or not.

He wrote 11 (I think) and I think at least four of them were about climate. But I read a quote almost exactly like that in Elizabeth Kolbert's "The Sixth Extinction"...sure that's not where you read it? PS: I've read a several of his books and still think his best might have been "The Assault on Reason". PPS: Curious about people like Gore: He is a very wealthy guy and his "carbon footprint" is huge, much larger than morst "working folks" for instance. I always hoped he would write and propose a carbon tax on the wealthy to shift some of the burden to help solve the problem. Didn't hear a peep. Whatever: He has "worked in the fields of the Lord" and done his bit to make the world aware of a problem that will almost certainly someday bite us in the ass. RE: Record Breaking Weather - chuck white - 07-29-2016 You know I recall many of the prediction were worse case. like, could be ice free by. Not that it would be ice free by.

I always hoped he would write and propose a carbon tax on the wealthy to shift some of the burden to help solve the problem. Didn't hear a peep. Do you know how carbon credits work? I remember he was mocked for lining in a "mansion" in Tennessee.But the area he lives in was all OLD stately mansions. And he spent a ton of money trying to make it as energy efficient as he could. He even had to fight the city building codes that tried to proven him from installing supposedly unsightly solar panels. He won that battle BTW. Anyway today I think he has some big house on the coast, or he got divorced and lives at the No Vacancy hotel. I'm not sure. My guess says that he offsets whatever he wastes with Carbon credits. In addition, comparing Gore’s home to an average house is not really relevant, since at 10,000 square feet, the mansion is hardly an average house. And the newspaper in Nashville, the Tennessean, reported that the Gores — they separated in 2010, but were together at the time — were paying a $432 monthly premium to get some of the electricity from green sources, such as solar power. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/politics/FactCheck_Are_most_violent_criminals_Democrats.html RE: Record Breaking Weather - Hugo - 07-29-2016 Why is it, every time I go to the coast, the water is right where it always has been.
