Well, we’ve done it. The world leaders may have been delusional, they may claim it as something historic (which it is but for the wrong reasons). But fortunately it seems that for all the rhetoric the “agreement” is nothing but empty promises and hot air as it has been at every International conference of the clowns since Climategate.
The laughable thing is that now the evidence against this scam was so completely overwhelming.
- The best measurement of global temperature come from the satellites – because they are corroborated by meteorological balloon data.
- The best measurements from satellites show no warming for 18 years.
- The worst indication is the surface data – because it is not global with vast areas of Africa and S.America not being measured at all as well as much of the ocean, because the data is heavily corrupted by urban heating and because it is beset with fraudulent adjustments to the extent that all the warming from 1940 can be attributed to these adjustments alone.
- And despite the massive adjustments, not one single dataset predicted to warm by at least 1.4C to 2100 has warmed at even that lowest predicted rate since the IPCC made that prediction in 2001.
- CO2 is a plant food and is good for the planet. Without CO2, there would be no plants, no animals and no humans (this is the utopia the greens really want – no living thing and especially humans to spoil the earth).
- Rising CO2 is leading to record harvests – this is a bad thing for the UN – because the UN makes its money by “helping the poor farmers” (then money is syphoned off by the UN and corrupt local officials). And if the public knew that the world’s farmers were being helped by them by producing CO2 and that the UN are useless, who would give money to the UN to supposedly help the poor?
- Extreme weather is not increasing – indeed, the only real trend is that hurricane activity is decreasing. But again, if the world knew this – how would all those who make their money from telling everyone else they can prevent them, continue to justify their jobs?
- Floods are not increasing, droughts are not increasing – but again those who make their money from these droughts by urgent “appeals” twanging heart strings by implying its the public’s fault, need the public to feel guilty, otherwise how would they line their pockets? And when floods, droughts, or anything else happens, as they always will, if we didn’t believe they were our fault, how would these evil “disaster chasing” people syphon off the money?
- Polar bears are doing fine – but again, evil people who make their money flying and driving fossil fuelled vehicles in the the snowy wastes to “prove” they are not doing well and penalise those living there who have to live with the ever increasing numbers of polar bears, don’t want the public to know that polar bears are doing fine. They don’t want the public to know that there is no need for the people who waste so much fossil fuel on these public paid all expenses holidays to the poles supposedly to count polar bears.
- Antarctic ice is growing, global sea ice is normal, Greenland surface ice has grown since 1990 – and again, those who make their money by wasting huge amounts of fossil fuel travelling to these places to monitoring the “melting ice”, have no incentive at all to let the public know that they are not needed.
In short, the scam is fuelled by people who make their money selling “climate scare porn” and have no reason at all to let the public know that the scam has already been disproven by the climatic data. But due to those like Ted Cruz, the facts are already out there. As such world leaders have knowingly chosen to ignore the facts, to believe those with their snouts in the trough of public money on this scam and once more they jump on the bandwagon of this climate scare porn, to get a few green votes in the hope the public don’t notice how much this scam is costing.
But Next year global cooling
So, isn’t it ironic, that we are already seeing the signs that the current El Nino has peaked. As you will know, this was a supposed to be a strong El Nino, and a strong El Nino was hoped to massively warm the global temperature. But when this did not happen, they just added more warming anyway to “prove” it was the hottest year evahhhh.
But despite their fraudulent claims, the temperatures of the most reliable data from satellites hardly registered any increase.
What this strongly suggests, is that we are already in a cooling phase – and have been for perhaps as much as five years. All the strong warming from the El Nino did – was to nicely continue the pause by adding a short term warming trend to a global temperature appears to have already started cooling. If this is right, then it also means that as the “strong” El Nino fades, we will start to see not only the longer term underlying cooling trend, but also the short term cooling as we come out of El Nino and the result may be a period of very significant cooling for a year or perhaps two. After which natural variation again kicks in so we’re back to unpredictable ups and downs, but the most likely trend for the next 20 years is cooling.
The Conference of Clowns
So, it is my belief that Paris will go down as a denial of reality by world leaders. It will probably be written up in the history books like the emperor’s as a lesson in vanity and belief over evidence – of dogma over data.
And worse, to have proclaimed that climate was more important than terrorism, to have wasted perhaps a billion pounds on an idiotic denial of reality conference when the stark reality of terrorism was staring all those in Paris in the face, will I hope mean that many of those present will be turfed out of government soon.
Hello S.S.,
I don’t get the time to comment here as often as I would like but I have been following the blog. Keep up the good work.
I like that you are looking for cooling based on the facts and observations. I am sure we would be in a long term cooling trend if the government controlled agencies used honest observations.
But what if the globe started warming? What if CO2 kept going up and up while the temperatures rose? That would prove nothing as CO2 and Temp correlation in a time series can’t prove a darn thing. (could disprove something though) It looks like we will have to see massively harsh winters in the northern hemisphere to get any of the alarmists to admit it is all a scam. Heck, it may take a return of a mile of ice over the northern US before they admit anything.
While Joseph Postma and the rest of the “Sky Dragon Slayers” were not so good at public relations and persuasive rhetoric, they had the physics correct as you pointed out in a post a while back. I think it might be time to post one on what you think of the “slayers” these days.
On the other hand, this link https://okulaer.wordpress.com/2015/06/20/why-atmospheric-mass-not-radiation-p2/ takes you to “Why atmospheric MASS, not radiation? Part 2” by okulaer (Kristian) and the link to part one is at the very top. Kristian’s theory on climate differs from the slayers. There are many points of agreement but there are points of contention. (Postma and Kristian once had a heated exchange) You might want to post your take on Kristian’s work someday.
Anyway, keep up all the good work.

I can remember a really similar process when I left University and went to industry. At first all the newbies were all mocked for all our silly mistakes – or for thinking we knew what was going to happen when we did something.
Eventually, when we finally learnt that actually what happens in practice is never what is supposed to happen in theory (or so rarely it’s a fluke), and we started to be less arrogant that we knew what was going on , we started to be treated with respect.
And I think it is exactly the same process we (engineering) sceptics are subjecting the newbie climate scientists to. We are mocking them and taking the mickey at everything they get wrong. And they are embarrassed and red faced – but unfortunately, because this crowd are the “boss’s son” they don’t take criticism too well and would rather fiddle the data than admit they don’t know what’s going on. So, it’s taking a bit longer than it should to bring this lot of newbies down to earth.
However, it all went disastrously wrong in the last few years when instead of admitting climate models “might work in theory but they didn’t work in practice” … they just fiddled the temperature data wholesale to fraudulently create a warming trend.
They might have had the bosses ear, but now even the boss is seeing that they are cooking the books.
The COP 21 premise is a farce. It’s not about climate. It’s about taking money from the rich (especially oil) and giving it to the poor (themselves – to distribute to others in greater need – of course they need more bureaucracy departments created, expanded and included to the international party list. COP21 is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
