    prove that statement..
    it is ridiculous... you already know the study..

    10,000 polls sent out only about 3000 returned.
    you have no way of proving your statement.

  3. That's just one study. There are others. There is no question that the consensus is overwhelming. I posted info to support that above. That you choose to ignore it is probably some sort of psychosis on your part.

    "In A Blind Test Conducted By AP, Statisticians "Found No True Temperature Declines Over Time." The Associated Press reported:

    Have you heard that the world is now cooling instead of warming? You may have seen some news reports on the Internet or heard about it from a provocative new book.

    Only one problem: It's not true, according to several independent statisticians who analyzed temperature data for The Associated Press.

    The case that the Earth might be cooling partly stems from recent weather. Last year was cooler than previous years. It's been a while since the super-hot years of 1998 and 2005. So is this a longer climate trend or just weather's normal ups and downs?

    In a blind test, the AP gave temperature data to four independent statisticians and asked them to look for trends, without telling them what the numbers represented. The experts found no true temperature declines over time.

    "If you look at the data and sort of cherry-pick a micro-trend within a bigger trend, that technique is particularly suspect," said John Grego, a professor of statistics at the University of South Carolina. [The Associated Press, 12/1/09]

    Daily Mail Chart Started At Time Period That Was Hotter Due To El Niño. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the 1997-98 El Niño event exerted considerable influence on the climate:

    El Niño-Southern Oscillation events involve large exchanges of heat between the ocean and atmosphere and affect global mean temperatures. The 1997-1998 event was the largest on record in terms of SST anomalies and the global mean temperature in 1998 was the highest on record (at least until 2005). Trenberth et al. (2002b) estimated that global mean surface air temperatures were 0.17°C higher for the year centred on March 1998 owing to the El Niño.

    The Daily Mail uses 1997-1998 as a starting point, which obscures the global warming signal with natural variability noise. [IPCC, 2007]

    Claim That Global Warming Has Stopped Ignores Huge Warming Of The Oceans. The Carbon Brief noted in rebutting the Daily Mail report that it also ignores huge oceanic warming:

    Another problem with Rose's analysis is that looking solely at atmospheric temperatures ignores a number of other indicators that global warming is happening. Most of the heat in the earth's atmosphere actually enters the ocean, as this fantastically simple infographic from Skeptical science shows:"

    I can hear the tree huggers now, calling for a jelly bean tax.
