From February 2016 to February 2018 (the latest month available) global average temperatures dropped 0.56°C. You have to go back to 1982-84 for the next biggest two-year drop, 0.47°C—also during the global warming era. All the data in this essay come from GISTEMP Team, 2018: GISS Surface Temperature Analysis (GISTEMP). NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (dataset accessed 2018-04-11 at https://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/).). This is the standard source used in most journalistic reporting of global average temperatures.

The 2016-18 Big Chill was composed of two Little Chills, the biggest five month drop ever (February to June 2016) and the fourth biggest (February to June 2017). A similar event from February to June 2018 would bring global average temperatures below the 1980s average. February 2018 was colder than February 1998.

The last 2 year period has been the biggest drop in global temperature over the past 120 years.

The 0.56°C drop in global temperatures comes at a very weird time for hysterical low IQ Climate scientists.

Whereas top physicists like Freeman Dyson have criticized the consensus as being unscientific and of low merit. It seems the more intelligent skeptics have been proven correct. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeman_Dyson#Climate_change

Physicist Freeman Dyson

The models solve the equations of fluid dynamics, and they do a very good job of describing the fluid motions of the atmosphere and the oceans. They do a very poor job of describing the clouds, the dust, the chemistry and the biology of fields and farms and forests. They do not begin to describe the real world we live in

What has happened in the past 10 years is that the discrepancies between what's observed and what's predicted have become much stronger. It's clear now the models are wrong, but it wasn't so clear 10 years ago.

[T]he environmental movement [has been] hijacked by a bunch of climate fanatics, who have captured the attention of the public with scare stories. …

China and India have a simple choice to make. Either they get rich [by burning prodigious quantities of coal and causing] a major increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide, or they stay poor. I hope they choose to get rich. …

The good news is that the main effect of carbon dioxide … is to make the planet greener, [by] feeding the growth of green plants of all kinds [and] increasing the fertility of farms and fields and forests."

I suspect AGW is happening. But something I've noticed is that anything put forth as evidence to the contrary is folded into the theory of AGW and then used as confirmation of the theory. So my question is...

What evidence could theoretically be presented that would falsify our current understanding of climate change? Something that would unambiguously imply something contradictory to our current assumptions/predictions?

If the answer is "nothing" or "we can't think of anything" then the theory is not scientific.

>> No.9707076

>>9706168
The best part is how they keep having to lower their starting point on each subsequent graph since reality decided "Nah."
Note how in 1992, the range is super narrow - yet the temperature disagreed with the forecast the lost at that point. Whatever modeling assumptions they made is clearly false at that point on some level.
The observed temperature also falls out of range on 1986, 87, 93, 98, and 2013 (you could also include 2014). That's at least 5 years out of 30 - well above a 5% error rate. Given that this is a 30 sample size in terms of years, it's highly unlikely that this is due to a small sample size either. The worst part is that 2/3rds of the model is a hindcast - a hindcast that only has a predictive capacity of 16/20 (80%, well below acceptable scientific standards - you could ask some economist to draw some fucking delta graphs and it'd be just as useful). It's a fucking shitshow, and I don't see how people take any of this seriously.

Ok, so far the evidence is so against the idea that man made climate change is wrong that it's ridiculous to hold your position. You question is: What evidence would we need to show that the Sun orbits the Earth? or What evidence would we need to show that the Earth is in fact a flat sphere?

That's not how science works and the fact you think it does is astonishing.

That said, if basic physics and chemistry suddenly broke down and we proved that CO2 does NOT absorb long wave radiation.

If basic atmospheric science suddenly broke down and we proved that the percentage of C-14 in the atmosphere is NOT falling.

Or if basic atmospheric science suddenly broke down and we proved that the stratosphere is NOT cooling while the troposphere is warming.

Or if basic atmospheric science suddenly broke down and we proved that O2 in the atmosphere is NOT falling showing the source of CO2 is combustion and not any other natural process.

If basic chemistry suddenly broke down and we proved that the ocean is NOT acidifying

If basic physics suddenly broke down and we proved that the ocean is NOT rising.

Yes, you just cherrypicked irrelevant points in time at which the temperature peaked as your starting point. There is no reason to care that the Earth has been cooling since the last El Nino, this is a common occurrence. There is no reason to care that the Earth has been cooling since the Azolla event, which is a timescale irrelevant to humanity. Not to mention that the we are currently burning only over a few hundred years all of the fossil fuels that accumulated over the millions of years following the Azolla event. It's quite ironic for you to talk about the cooling after the Azolla event while ignoring that we are reversing the exact mechanism that caused that cooling and allowed for our species to evolve and survive.

The problem I have with the climate change theory is the same that many people have. For one, the climate is way to complicated to model properly and so many assumptions are made that you might as well pull a rabbit out of a hat and use that to make the models.

The real problem I have with it is all the theories about what happens when the planet warms.
>NO MORE ICE
>EVERYTHING NEAR THE TROPICS IS DEAD
>TINY ZONES OF LIFE NEAR THE POLES
>EVERYTHING IS FLOODED AND GONE
>EVERYTHING IS A DESERT
>EVERYTHING IS 1000000X MORE EXTREME

These claims have 0 base and a just fear mongering tactics used to push a political agenda and get funding. In reality, humanity has prospered during warm periods and if anything, warming is actually great for the population. The end of many great civilizations was brought about by global cooling causing crop failure and many kingdoms rose during warm periods.

The other problem I have with this theory is that it takes away from actual, immediate problems that are occurring with the oceans. Trash and other pollution, not carbon dioxide and methane, are the major problems at the moment. No, ocean acidification is not caused by CO2 nearly as much as it is caused by NOx and other heavily man-made acids derived from fertilizers. These are things no one even tries to fix, meanwhile they have fucking massive summits on CO2 bullshit. It's like saying that the cause of your ship sinking is a small leak in the faucet because you can see it dripping water while there is a giant hole in the hull right behind you.

The CMIP models have been accurate for decades, so your premise is wrong. The climate is very complicated, but that doesn't mean climatologists can't figure certain things out, like how much warming is caused by greenhouse gas emissions. This is based on very solid chemistry and physics and corroborated by direct observation of the atmosphere via radiative spectroscopy. There is no way to get around the fact that the warming caused by human emissions is about the same as the total observed warming of the Earth. If there is some alternative to that fact I suggest you find the evidence for it and publish it. Until then I'll trust actual climatologists over a random 4chan poster or an old physicist talking outside of his area of expertise.

I'm pretty ignorant on the science so that is actually what I wanted. I've got nothing to add here.

I have one other question. When I see the two sides argue (yes yes I know one side is right and the other is dumb), I see people make arguments like OP which is something like, "the last two winters have bucked the trend, so where's your global warming now." Not particularly convincing. The reply is often, "on the geological timescale it's insignificant." Fine.

Speaking strictly in that case, like I described, why is it then valid to argue (not saying you are, I mean generally by anyone if it is at all) that the last 8 or 10 or whatever summers are the hottest on record (maybe 150 years?), when geologically this isn't all that much more relevant than some blip of a cold trend.

Again, not trying to argue against global warming. But that particular back and forth, to an outsider observing, does appear to be a bit of flawed logic (applicable to both sides).

There are too many variables that feed into the system. In addition to this, the system is beyond nonlinear with many relations and dynamics not well understood because there has not been sufficient time to observe repeatability and come up with adequate models. Essentially, its like trying to estimate the steady state response of a function (increasing co2) when you are in a transient without knowledge of what lies in front of you and the knowledge gathered from behind you is from secondary or tertiary sources.

>And none of those theories are supported by scientists.
I hear this shit parroted all the time at my uni by professors, scientists, and students alike. They all say that we are going to die in X number of years because of XYZ caused by AGW.

I do know a lot of this shit gets pushed by the left because it furthers their agenda of state control over private property and a lot of stupid shit gets said (no ice by 2015 etc). The part that bothers me is when anyone, regardless of credentials, comes out with a theory against it, they get ripped apart, have their funding cut, and have massive character assassination campaigns run against them. Science isn't a field where 'consensus wins' because otherwise you can create artificial consensus by attacking those that come out against your theory and essentially forcing only one opinion to be 'scientifically accepted'. If you want to do research on the climate, the only way to get funding is if you support AGW theory through it. If your results come back disproving it, well there goes your funding for next year and your credentials get washed down the toilet.

If the theory wasnt politicized, didn't offer massive gains to one political ideology, didn't create massive amounts of fear mongering, was more repeatable and consistent, and didn't have sketchy data 'adjustments' I would be more onboard.

Warming expands the Hadley cells, causing subtropical deserts to expand to higher latitudes. A worldwide increase in rainfall doesn't mean that everywhere gets more rain.
This shit is introductory level climatology.

Of course extra CO2 doesn't have bad effects! That's why 252 million years ago, the Earth was a lush paradise, not an aridity-stricken hellscape with drought-scorched land and bacteria-choked seas.

Since we're putting out about 35 billion tons a year, that equates to 75-250 years' worth of current emissions. And remember, it took about a WHOLE MILLION years for the Siberian LIP to put that into the atmosphere.

Results of a model designed to estimate the effects of increased CO2 on climate and ocean chemistry suggest that increases in atmospheric pCO2 due to Deccan Traps CO2 emissions would have been less than 75 ppm, leading to a predicted global warming of less than 1°C over several hundred thousand years. We conclude that the direct climate effects of CO2 emissions from the Deccan eruptions would have been too weak to be an important factor in the end‐Cretaceous mass extinctions.

There has been a warming tend over the last century due to human emissions increasing radiative forcing. The tentative going up or down within that trend is simply the result of natural variability on shorter timescales, mostly the result of the El Nino/La Nina cycle. Climatologists have not ignored this, you just ate grossly ignorant of climatology. Stop lying about it.

>It's like someone saying "Winter will be colder"
It's like you don't understand anything about what you're trying to discuss. Increasing greenhouse emissions will continue to cause rapid warming on the scale of centuries, causing many problems for human civilization. This is simply well-evidenced scientific fact.

>> No.9708514

>>9707689
I think I understand the question now. You're asking:

How do we know this isn't natural forcing? 150 years isn't enough time to discover trends out of the statistical mean for natural causes.

This was the argument from when Svante Arrhenius first proposed that CO2 could become a driver of climate if enough of it was released into the atmosphere as an industrial byproduct back in the 19th century and wasn't clearly answered until the 1990s.

We began collecting data clear back into the 1950s on CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere and have global temperature records going back about 150 years from the British Empire.

Additionally we have paleoclimate records though secondary sources. Some very accurate ones include Foraminifera, a type of microscopic life which changes the orientations of their shells based on temperature. We can literally use the little suckers as a thermometer any time they're found in ocean cores and rock fossils.

We can also take cores of the sea floor to find out exactly how far the ice cap has spread in the past. The sediment under ice is very different than the sediment under open ocean. We have accurate records of the ice cap going back millions of years. This is a very good indicator of global temperature (Hint, it has never been smaller in the entire Quaternary)

As temperature continued to rise through the industrial age the amount of warming rose out of the statistical average for expected natural causes. Basically in the 1990s the debate was ending that mankind was causing climate change because the rate of warming has never been seen in hundreds of millions of years of Earth's geological history. Climate change this fast would have catastrophic effects on the environment (Hint, it is) which would have easily been seen in the geological record of the Earth.

Does that help answer your question?

Not same person but not really.
So you have two sources for past temperature that's not actual measurements so far, but have you checked how reliable they are? Or rather, what prevents information loss in these two sources? You mentioned sediment below ice cap, but as ice caps are concentrated around the poles are they good indicators of global climate models? Similarly, is the footprint of foraminifera global - at the very least, covering all ocean bodies? Moreover, Do the two sources agree to within a reasonable tolerance in a range where the data is actually useful (if I have a ruler that measures to half an inch I might as well not have one at all, but if climate records are only good to half a degree I'm supposed to buy it)?

You didn't actually make any points. The choice of 1880 as a starting point is no more valid than 2016 or 40,000,000 years ago.

If we are looking for the impact of humans on the climate in the future we would need a predictive model of human technologies.

In addition we would need to look at historical carbon, of which we can see the earth existed at higher levels and we are at a cool point.

Using a singular example: 1880-2016 doesn't support any argument. The reason being is that there are too many contributions that we don't model or don't understand. Hence the same predictive models not capturing huge swings in the predictions.

They can't predict anything. The predictions fail, hence from that we can understand their understanding of global temp is shit.

1880 is the start of the instrumental record. Any later than that, and we're artificially shortening the span of the data series. Any earlier and we're stitching two kinds of data (direct measurement and temperature proxy) together, which has its own issues of calibration.
>If we are looking for the impact of humans on the climate in the future we would need a predictive model of human technologies.
No, you retard, we don't. Climate models predict what will happen if we continue current behavior. Some also predict what will happen if, say, we reduce our emissions by a certain percent, or increase albedo by some factor. We don't need to KNOW what tech we will develop to know what the IMPACT of different strategies will be.

It's not even slightly linear though. The rate of warming is FAR higher in recent decades than it was in earlier ones. Look at HadCRUT, for instance.

>COINCIDES perfect with little ice age that ended in early 1800
It really doesn't though. The recent warming is faster than anything the "little ice age" could or has done. You're also ignoring the fact that the little ice age was primarily a local even, whereas the recent warming is global, or that the recent warming fits with the radiative forcing we can measure from anthropogenic CO2 emissions.

In short - no.

Again, this is just random noise caused by ENSO. You are conflating two different things, temperature swings caused by ENSO and major volcanic eruptions in the hindcast.

Quote from the author of the study, Richard Alley

>"Whether temperatures have been warmer or colder in the past is largely irrelevant to the impacts of the ongoing warming. If you don’t care about humans and the other species here, global warming may not be all that important; nature has caused warmer and colder times in the past, and life survived. But, those warmer and colder times did not come when there were almost seven billion people living as we do. The best science says that if our warming becomes large, its influences on us will be primarily negative, and the temperature of the Holocene or the Cretaceous has no bearing on that. Furthermore, the existence of warmer and colder times in the past does not remove our fingerprints from the current warming, any more than the existence of natural fires would remove an arsonist’s fingerprints from a can of flammable liquid. If anything, nature has been pushing to cool the climate over the last few decades, but warming has occurred.
