PBS featured a global warming bonanza last week with a two-hour documentary followed by an hour long musing by Bill Nye, the mechanical engineer guy. I didn’t watch this left-wing fairytale, however, my commie neighbor did, and he was all excited about it.
Liberals would have us believe carbon dioxide, which is essential for life to exist on this planet, is a pollutant and must be contained. They refuse to acknowledge the sun’s influence, or any historical import, such as the Little Ice Age or the Medieval Warm Period. Because, these self-important twits believe this is year zero, God is dead, and they are masters of the universe.
Back in March 2013, Forbes published a lengthy article on liberal self-deception. Even though I didn’t watch PBS’s disinformation campaign, I’m quite sure they left out the following indisputable facts.
The increase in global temperatures since the late 19th century just reflects the end of the Little Ice Age. The global temperature trends since then have followed not rising CO2 trends but the ocean temperature cycles of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). Every 20 to 30 years, the much colder water near the bottom of the oceans cycles up to the top, where it has a slight cooling effect on global temperatures until the sun warms that water. That warmed water then contributes to slightly warmer global temperatures, until the next churning cycle.
Those ocean temperature cycles, and the continued recovery from the Little Ice Age, are primarily why global temperatures rose from 1915 until 1945, when CO2 emissions were much lower than in recent years. The change to a cold ocean temperature cycle, primarily the PDO, is the main reason that global temperatures declined from 1945 until the late 1970s, despite the soaring CO2 emissions during that time from the postwar industrialization spreading across the globe.
The 20 to 30 year ocean temperature cycles turned back to warm from the late 1970s until the late 1990s, which is the primary reason that global temperatures warmed during this period. But that warming ended 15 years ago, and global temperatures have stopped increasing since then, if not actually cooled, even though global CO2 emissions have soared over this period. As The Economist magazine reported in March, “The world added roughly 100 billion tonnes of carbon to the atmosphere between 2000 and 2010. That is about a quarter of all the CO2 put there by humanity since 1750.” Yet, still no warming during that time. That is because the CO2 greenhouse effect is weak and marginal compared to natural causes of global temperature changes.
But that would mean we’re not Gods! Somebody shut this denier down!
