NAS: Global Warming Will Affect Transport System (2008.3.11)

2010 the worst US winter for 90 years: Go outside some time!

[starrdreams]

One event do not prove or disprove anything. But if you like to see such events as proof, then what would you say about lack of snow in Vancouver? Or heatwave that puts Moscows white Christmas on hold? Etc,. if to pick specific local events in the world.

But anyway, increased amount of precipitation and weather extremes was named years ago as one of the consequences of global warming.

[JonThm]

@starrdreams The weather has short term cycles of 28 years. The US has teh coldest winter fro 90 years, CO2 NEVER had any effect - that was a nuclear lie!

[JonThm]

The world is cooling: Get over it, and stop taking money from nuclear power

[JonThm]

GW said it was more important than anthing! El Nino moves the heat around this cooling planet!

[JonThm]

THe worst winter fro 90 years on the East coast: And the UK gets it next! The world's hottest year on record was1998. THough '76 and '38 were hotter!

[starrdreams]

@JonThm Regarding of winter - that happens sometimes. But climate change is not "sometimes".

[JonThm]

The climate changes without help from man! We couldn't affect the weather - no matter how big our egos.

[starrdreams]

@JonThm

Regarding of record 1998 - "The 1998 global temperature jumped far above the previous warmest year in the instrumental record, largely because 1998 was affected by the strongest El Nino of the century. Thus for the following several years the global temperature was lower than in 1998, as expected. However, the 5-year and 11-year running mean global temperatures have continued to increase at nearly the same rate as in the past three decades." (James Hansen. The Temperature of Science)

[JonThm]

El Nino has nothing to do wtih GLOBAL anything! The world is cooling, GW is nuclear spin! Do they pay well?

[starrdreams]

World is not cooling - last decade was warmest on Record second warmest since 1880 and in the Southern Hemisphere, 2009 was the warmest year on record.

[starrdreams]

Yes, exactly - El Nino has nothing to do wtih GLOBAL anything. That's why 1998 doesn't count as "warmest".

[JonThm]

Since 1998 the globla average temperature has declined. GW was PR by nuclear power - your boss!

[starrdreams]

Declined? Last decade is warmest on record. And 2009 was the warmest year on record.

[JonThm]

GW was fiction from nuclear power, before the world started cooling in 1998

[starrdreams]

@JonThm Maybe it was fiction. But now it is reality. And world is not cooling. Check the news - Last decade was the hottest ever recorded

[harmlines]

the climate is now very hot unlike 5 years ago where I can go out in the house from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Now I rather stay in the house if no important matters to do so. It is as hot as hell....!!!!!

Same where I live. This summer was 40°C in a city which had its first temperature record of 34°C in the mid 1990s. Seems to get worse each year. We also had storms here which I cant remember we had in the last 45 years.
