Trump and his thoughts on Climate Change. I cannot believe how incredibly ******* stupid this man is. It's beyond comprehension that he is the leader of the free world and I think that daily.

____________________________________________________________

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos last week, French President Emmanuel Macron made headlines for poking fun at his American counterpart’s well-documented history of climate change denial.

Now remarks from President Donald Trump on the issue, which were also recorded in Davos but aired in Britain Sunday evening, are providing additional context to Macron’s spot-on mockery.

“There is a cooling and there’s a heating,” Trump told Piers Morgan in an interview with Britain’s ITV. “I mean, look, it used to not be climate change, it used to be global warming. That wasn’t working too well because it was getting too cold all over the place.”

He then addressed the subject of polar ice cap melting. “The ice caps were going to melt, they were going to be gone by now, but now they’re setting records,” Trump said. “They’re at a record level.”

In reality, man-made global warming has far outpaced any short-term cooling. Nevertheless, climate change skeptics regularly cherry-pick such data points that fail to account for long-term trends, which consistently show that the planet’s temperature is rising.

Like Trump’s past musings on global warming, his latest observations fly in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence. They also recall a May Politico report in which Trump fell for a hoax Time magazine cover that supposedly warned about a coming ice age. K.T. McFarland, the former deputy national security adviser, reportedly snuck the fake cover onto Trump’s desk with the intention of irritating Trump on the topic of climate change.

A White House official defended McFarland, saying that the cover was “fake but accurate.” Whatever that means.

While I happily agree that man made global warming has accelerated the natural cycles and that we should make serious efforts to curb the effect now, I'd dispute the argument often put forward that meteorological records prove it is all mankind caused.

Asserting that it is solely mankind caused, based on those records that began when the last mini-ice age that was at it end point in the late 19th century, is a classic case of cherry picking. CO2 levels are however now higher than at the last peak that occurred about 325,000 years ago.

Show me the journal articles that say it is “all” man made.

Most scientists agree that it is predominately man made though

Very good question.... at the time doing what the other bored blokes were doing. Was on the way to my cricket match so it was a trade off so she would drive home after I downed the obligatory post cricket froths.

Most of that stuff comes from agitator groups who misquote the more careful journal articles.
There is also room to debate the "predominately man made" position too if you put meteorological records aside and look at the longer term data and well known solar activity cycles.

We have to consider also natural peaks caused by the Milankovitch cycles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milankovitch_cycles
Other solar cycles: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/SolarCycle/

Long term climate oscillation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_cycle

Then there is the modifying effect of orbital accretion:

If climate change discussion doesn't make you laugh then not a ******* thing will.

Reacquainting myself with an old favourite...

Went to drop the better half off at the train station this morning and as she got out the car the dress that she was wearing had a full length zipper at the front which somehow broke at the bottom and unhinged itself pretty much all the way up while she stood there on the path of the drop off zone in front of a heap of commuters at Mawson Lakes Interchange.

You'd have some on your SLR camera from the front seat of your Skoda wouldn't you?
