Trouble with the Consensus

“The vast majority of climate scientists say human activity — primarily emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation — is to blame for the rise in global temperatures seen in recent decades.”

Well, not for the last decade and a half.

But this is the party line trumpeted ad nauseum by CAGW alarmists.

“One is the overwhelming scientific consensus. Every scientific academy in the world supports the scientific consensus, but the press is still not reporting concretely enough on the scientific consensus.” says Donald Brown, Climate Ethicist

Strange. Maybe the press has wizened up and now realize that the consensus is not all it is cracked up to be. Maybe the press is still looking for the polls conducted with the memberships of the scientific academies. Who was the independent polling agent? What were the questions that were asked? How many were polled? What was the return rate? Are the raw data available for anyone to examine? When those poll results are made available perhaps the press will report on them and be convinced that they were something other than political statements by organizations that do PAID work for their governments.

Here are some recent cracks in the solidarity of the so-called ‘consensus’ on CAGW.

Here is an older one that details the many scientists who object to CAGW.

But most importantly, Mother Nature continues to report disagreement with the CAGW theory. Is anybody listening? And hers is the only voice that counts.

12 Straight Months Of Above Normal Antarctic Sea Ice: 'Today marks 365 consecutive days of above normal Antarctic sea ice'

The 2012 Arctic sea ice reaches a record low due to an August polar cyclone and the press jump all over this like it is the canary in the coal mine. The record refreeze in the Arctic has been completely ignored. Why? It is not scary therefore it is not news. The press fail to point out that according to the CAGW theory both poles are supposed to be melting. Antarctic sea ice has been above normal for 12 months straight which blows the theory out of the water and it is not news? It should be good news. We still don’t understand what is going on at the poles but whatever it is, it is not CAGW.

The evidence continues to mount that there is no climate crisis and all that we have been doing to reduce CO2 emissions has been unnecessary. What a waste of time, effort and taxpayer money.
