Easy. It is “climate” if it is hot and supports the global warming lefties religion. It is weather when there are record cold patterns. See.
"....and claimed the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was hiding information that the sun was the primary cause for climate change" Maybe Professor Langdon should track down this holy grail information and release it to the world!
Everyone knows the difference. If a weather event supports the GW narrative, it is climate. If a weather event does not supports the GW narrative, it is weather.
Actually there are two scientists I hang my "global warming hat on," as you say. One is Nir Shaviv, of course, who is at the zenith of his career, and the other is the well known atmospheric physicist Murry Salby, now retired. Salby's work has shown that CO2 is rather unimportant in determining the Earth's surface temperature, but he hasn't shown what is important. Shaviv's work nicely complements Salby's in that Shaviv has shown what is important. Naturally both Shaviv and Salby have been slimed by endless ad hominem attacks emanating from the global warming cultists. The head Cultist PooBah is James Hansen. who has taken to bypassing peer review altogether and is now submitting his pseudo scientific papers directly to the media. Here he is in a 2009 interview. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2009/jan/18/jim-hansen-obama Hansen combines the obvious -- polar ice caps are melting -- with a huge leap of faith that his now discredited, many times over, and, in retrospect -- we all fell for it initially, rather screwy explanation is correct. Hansen presses on undaunted by simply ignoring the growing mountain of evidence that conclusively contradicts his anthropomorphic CO2 hypothesis.
Another no substance remark from the resident agw nutter. You rotate between insults and about 5 decade old posts showing a few stale charts (in no way showing man made co2 is causing warming) and some old science free quotes from some scientific organizations. Then you have your new lie... about no publishing climate scientist. We have hundreds of studies and peer review papers showing that man made co2 may not be doing any warming... And we have shown you quite a few published climate scientists stating there is not science supporting the idea that man made co2 causes warming. yet you lie you ass off over and over.
Now that we have "won the day" with regard to this "man made global warming" debate. It is my hope that we can move on to more important subjects like tax cuts, balanced budgets, privatized social security accts, healthcare competition, strong defense, necessary border wall etc.
