Some interesting stuff just published looking at European temperatures over the last couple of millennia.

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-932...

Suggests that the variability of summer temperatures over that time was bigger than previously thought and that the current 30 years are the warmest...

The world is unpredictable. st happens. st changes. I'm on earth for a hundred years max after that I really couldn't give two sts what happens as i'll be dead.

land based instrument temps, fiddled to fk n back again. Try that graph with the satellite data - oops, no warming.

Ah, yes, we're well overdue for another worse than previously thought. Thought they'd abandoned that ploy.

So my cynical friend you do not like Graphs or science publications my guess is you use seaweed to predict both the weather and climate change. I think if you provided a critical view on what approach you take and the supporting evidence the comments may be taken more seriously...............then again its a piston heads so Opinions count for more than any Science publication wink

Err no, mostly proxy records. And some of the satellite data does indeed show a warming (although you wouldn't necessarily expect warming in the upper atmosphere)- have a closer read of the paper/webpage you referenced the other day.

That wasn't the point I was making, given the topic of the thread, what I was getting at is that there is lots of short-term variability in climate that happens naturally (both up and down) that are superimposed on any greenhouse gas effects.

When I see the corruption within climate research, I find it impossible to identify anything that might be true or correct. The science is settled. It is fraudulent. As a consequence, trying to assess it is a pointless endeavour.

There have been periods with much higher Co2 in the atmosphere than now in the past with no runaway greenhouse, and in fact, a lot of glaciation, but typically the Sun's output is weaker in the past.

Regardless of what we do, the sun will eventually destroy the Earth's ecosystem. Firstly, by gradually increasing it's output, and thus raising the temperatures until very uncomfortable for life to exist, then impossible. Eventually it will expand in size and consume the Earth.

Doomed. We're all doomed, even the planet, so don't spend too much time worrying about it.

What Fraudulent Science is this then?

Isn't it one of those cliched 'internet hardcore' posts, to show how he's so tough and doesn't care about anyone other than himself. Hope he never has children...

The fraudulent science that climate research is riddled with. You know, the stuff you keep ignoring.

I think the term Troll may just be appropriate in this case so unless you can eloquently explain I am afraid Hurtybrain your new label will be Mr Troll
