BREAKING NEWS Earth Sets Temperature Record for 3rd Straight Year

    • It is the first time in the modern era of global warming data that temperatures have blown past the previous record three years in a row.
    • The data show that temperatures are heading toward levels that many believe will pose a profound threat to civilization.

    Human-induced climate change has made it at least 160 times more likely that three consecutive years after 2000 would be record-setting, according to Michael E. Mann, a climate scientist at Pennsylvania State University and a lead author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s Third Scientific Assessment, which was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.

    His findings show that if human-induced climate change was not part of the equation, the amount of warming in 2016 have less than one-in-a-million odds of occurring.

    “One could argue that about 75 percent of the warmth was due to human impact,” Dr. Mann said.

    Mr. Mann's hockey stick is all in his head and not in reality.

    It's only the "hottest" year when adjusted data is used. Let's use the raw HadCRUT global temperature data and see what it says.

    Sweet, its mid-January and the temp is in the 50s. I am really liking this whole global warming thing.
     

  4. Yes there is. Tons of it. As much as there is proof that smoking is unhealthy, or maybe as a dumb fucking Trumper you deny that also.
     
  5. I was thinking the same thing. For me and my life it's not so bad. And that's all that matters right?

    Correct.
    I would argue that about 1.7% of the warming is a result of human activities.
     

  7. I would argue that you are a douche-bag Trumper troll.
     
  8. Still crying over the love of his life Hillary losing the election. How pathetic.

    I would argue that you are a science hating dipshit.
    So where does that leave us?
    Oh, I'll just live my life but you should go and shit your pants scared about inconsequential sea level rise.
