This is what happens when scientists force a model on insufficient data. Anomalies that don't fit are either thrown out or otherwise dismissed as a blip in a larger trend. But a 30 year trend on a 100-200 year time line is hardly insignificant. Not to mention the BS about getting back 1990 levels of CO2 production. If its that important, shouldn't we be aiming for 1790 or 1090 when our CO2 emissions were minimal? And why aren't other greenhouse gasses like methane getting targeted with equal effort? Looks like an all-show-no-go plan to me. If you're serious, do something serious. Otherwise stop wasting everyone's time.

FYI - the report was not created by someone at Fox News. They just added it to their website. You can find it also here:

I like how the scientists responsible for discovering global warming threw out the original temp data they collected over the years and got caught fudging temps to suit their theroy.

Yeah I dont trust those crooks.


BTW the salt patrol is on the loose now in New York. LOL As soon as I retire Im out of this country if it keeps on the road its heading towards. I want my kid to have the freedom to be fat, fail, smoke, succeed, drive what he wants, eat what he wants, get non biased education, have guns ect ect.

^^^This. They've only really had the means to semi accurately track weather for the last couple hundred years. They are just getting ready to send up satellites that can track the oceans temperature and salinity instead of just spot checking whereever a boat is. My understanding is the computing power simply doesn't exist to do an accurate model. Just because of the computing power limitations- scientists currently pick a few data point trends to put into the models. The interactions are so complex that even just a few points can tie up supercomputers for days.
