Not so fast fat boy. The OP is from NASA and the National Solar Observatory, dumbass. <img src=http://www.thelivingmoon.com/47john_lear/04images/Seas/415k-year-temp-graph.jpg width=500 height=375>
and yet there is no science saying we are warming rapidly vis a vis our history. And, no reliable science saying we will warm in the future.
There is NO credible science to support AGW or any further global warming, natural or otherwise for that matter. All of the AGW models have failed. CO2 forcing has failed. Falsified and manipulated data fraud has been found to be rampant in government supported climate studies. In fact, the real science from honest scientists supports a downward move in global temps and a possible cooling crisis. The undeniable cooling trend of the last 17 years looks like just the beginning of this move.
Global cooling is much more important as this means larger heating bills and greater energy usage. We need to seriously tackle this topic and not let the crazies take it to the opposite direction for the sake of what? Government control and taxation. Let's talk about real science and practical effects on people for once. The insanity of this is incredible. It's like the world is round but the global warming fools keep shouting, it's flat, it's flat! The world is cooling, not warming, deal with it.
fc you just posted a chart from models which have failed. pspr just showed you that when you look at earths history or temperatures are in the middle of the range. You have zero science showing man made global warming. Lucrum... I am not sure you noticed when you quoted me but I reversed what ricter was saying.
