If global warming is going to kill everything then how did humanity manage to survive in ancient Rome when temperatures were 3ºC higher than they are now and there was no air conditioning or refrigeration? What about ancient Egypt when it was 4ºC warmer? Egypt is already plenty hot in the present, can you imagine it 4ºC hotter and without air conditioning and refrigeration? Did everyone die? Did civilization collapse?

Things were definitely better in ancient Egypt. Will taxes go down if we can drive the temperature up high enough to equal what they had in ancient Egypt?

in English we generally think of time as extending from the present into the future, or backwards from the present into the past
the deeper one drills, the further one can look backwards - I think it would be clearer if you would've said the cores /began/ in 1800, as the start of the core is the point nearest the surface, and thus the nearest point in time
your choice of language confused me

but what makes you so sure that they start in 1800?
the project had drilling seasons from 1990 to '92
we can see here that there is a delta-O-18 datum from the GRIP cores, from 40 years before 2000 (that's 1960, as far as I can make it)

therefore the assertion anon made, that these cores contain no data after 1800, is false, because they do

Because they knew it was an artefact. They had actual temperature readings. Why would they show a decline if they know it wasn't there? Not hiding it would be extremely unethical.
Last week I had a very similar situation at work. We use something like a proxy to evaluate the performance of our experiment. Something happened and there's a decline. A decline we know isn't there. So we scale the data to hide this artificial decline. It's common practice. Only midwits would be butthurt by this, especially if this happened 20 years ago.

Ironically that's what the deniers are doing here. The scientists doctor results to fit their instrumental measurements. Deniers doctor these news to fit their "theory". By naming a wrong reason you tweak the facts to fit your theory that climate scientists are making things up. You can do that only by ignoring context, namely that we know that there's no decline in that time frame. We have the actual temperature measurements, and the tree ring analysis gives numbers which are obviously wrong.

if tree ring width is not a good proxy for temperature, then it shouldn't be used as a proxy for that in their research, and they absolutely shouldn't make use of it up until it appears to show a temp decline, and then deliberately obscure the data when a decline is shown
you cannot demonstrate an increase using tree rings, when the tree rings themselves show a decline

>Unless "the temperature of our thermometer is a better representation of the actual temperature than this tree ring we don't really understand" is a "hypothesis".
the hypothesis is that there has been an increase in temp, and that tree rings can used to show the temperature prior to the invention of the thermometer to prove this - so if the tree rings do NOT accurately reflect temperature (which they don't appear to), then no increase from the temperatures recorded by tree rings can be demonstrated

ancient rome and egpyt have a lot of underground stuff. Its nice and cool underground in those hot countries. Also their above ground structures were made of stone which is a little cooler inside
my brick house with no air conditioning in the hot summer is ten degrees cooler inside, with the help of trees all around also shading the house

Does anyone have the PDF about the fake thermometers that were designed to read 0.7ºC high?

Those trees aren't only shading the house, they're also evaporating large amounts of water, isoprene and other hydrocarbons, all of which are endothermic processes. As CO2 is added to the atmosphere, the trees grow faster and evaporate more water and hydrocarbons, increasing their ability to cool their environment, this is one of the ways the increased atmospheric CO2 levels reduces global temperatures and instigates ice ages

None of these are processes. They're chemicals. Are you retarded?
