#2 Finally, something that convinces me that global warming is a planetary emergency.

#6 Every conservative politician everywhere should campaign on the premise of a massive clawback. Here in the US, RICO should be on the table...

#7 Global warming is still alive and kicking in pop culture. A generation of kids has been raised to regard it as revealed truth, and has neither the interest nor the education to ever challenge their total faith in the evils of CO2.

#10 There is too much money in the scheme for it to just drop. Its when people realize they are paying for a ride to nowhere is when it will stop.

#12 Another Hoax Killed, Good Riddance.
NO globull (NOT misspelled) floods, No scorching wastelands, Nothing.

#13 just a minute

yes it is true that global temps haven't risen in 16 years or so but that, by itself, really doesn't mean there won't be a significant rise or a significant decrease for that matter, in the next 16 years

legitimate skepticism cuts both ways

the earth is overdue for a strong El Nino, if it comes and there is still no global temp rise, that will be a pretty strong piece of information

#14 I don't think the celebration over this news has anything to do with whether or not world climate is changing. Rather the good news is the public acknowledgement by yet another section of the scientific community that the entire AGW scare was a hoax.

#15 My laptop is still suffering the effects of Y2K, or is it my lagging grammar ?

#16 Ditto Iblis.

The skepticism has to do with the self-aggrandising, self-enriching scare mongering. The "science" was totally bogus and therefore none of the conclusions of the Watermelon crowd have any validity.

That says nothing about the climate. THAT is still unknown. What is known is that Mann, Hanson and company lied.

#17 We may have rising or falling temperatures because the earth does that. When Eric the Red discovered Greenland, it really was green, and the Danes were able to colonize it and even raise sheep and cattle there for 200 years. Then the Little Ice Age began, and the temperatures dropped and the Danes abandoned their colonies. Archaeologists examining the cemeteries in Greenland saw the effects of the temperature change in the decreased stature of 13th and 14th C Greenlanders, compared with the earlier settlers.

The research money should go to developing crops that can survive different levels of warming and cooling. If one of those Pacific Rim volcanoes blows, we could have several consecutive years without summer.

#18 Oh mom, you and your 1950 view point. Eric the Red Invaded Greenland, and sic'd sheeps and invasive plants upon it's virgin shoreline. This caused the the Great Cooling, a rejection of the Norse and built a fitting home for the kralings or was it skralings (Eskcimaux)? I'm never certain on these things. Anyway,don't peer past the Clovis layer.

Anyway, an early case of the earth itself rejecting the imperialist whiteman
