Dont Call It Global Warming

[tweety]

Tweety conveniently forgot to mention the active volcanoes under that ice sheet and Greenland too.

Is that climate or weather. I am struggling with the definitions.

Stop struggling, weather is current, climate is an average.

Global temp up 1.9 degrees since 1880.
CO2 up from 300 to 412 ppm in last 100 years
Sea rise 3.3 mm per year, accelerating.

Is the earth cooling or warming? Try to separate science from the political motivations. You aren't going to change the latter posting on Agriville.

Big fu cken deal
Palm trees in the arctic
Does that mean anything to pea brains?
Crocodile fossills in NE Sk ?
Ice ages
Quit wasting everyones time and money

Again, whatever we say here doesn't matter. Complete waste of time. You change nothing. You're only here to be advertised to, to buy products

This might shock your mind, but all within the normal fluctuations of a chaotic system such as the earth.

And you certainly do have a time scale bias. Go back and see what CO2 and temp were 10M yrs ago. At one time it was 10 times higher which coincided with a huge explosion of life forms on this planet. CO2 is the only reason this planet is habitable at all. Were are in one of the lowest CO2 periods in our planets history. And you want to roll it back to a level that's never been seen before? That's truly nuts.

Youre the one who keeps bringing it up ?

Les Henry is a soil scientist and obviously a human caused climate change denier or sympathizer.

He has never published a peer reviewed climate change paper and never will.

It's not possible to draw conclusions about global climate change from one weather station on the prairies and he should know that as a scientist.

When they do soil science do they use Swift Current soils to draw conclusions about all the prairie soil types let alone global soils? LOL

Now lets hear what a climate scientist says that tells a different story than Henry spun:
https://www.producer.com/2020/02/data-from-sask-tells-compelling-climate-story/ https://www.producer.com/2020/02/data-from-sask-tells-compelling-climate-story/

Data from Sask. tells compelling climate story

When Virginia Wittrock speaks to farmers about climate trends in Saskatchewan, she tries to avoid the phrase “climate change.”

The words are politically charged and can get in the way of rational discussions about the climate.

Instead, Wittrock prefers to let her data tell the story — data that’s been collected daily over the last 55 years at the Saskatchewan Research Council’s (SRC) Climate Reference Station in Saskatoon.

So what does the data say? Is Saskatoon’s climate different than it was 55 years ago?

Without a doubt, says Wittrock, a research scientist and climatologist who’s been working at the SRC for the past 31 years.

“Our winters are definitely getting warmer, our summer night-time temperatures are definitely getting warmer and summer precipitation seems to be getting more variable,” she says.

The average frost-free growing period is also getting longer.

In fact, SRC trendline data suggests the average frost-free growing period in Saskatoon has increased to nearly 140 days currently, up from about 106 days in the mid-1960s.

Wittrock describes the SRC’s climate reference station (CRS) as one of the most comprehensive weather data collection sites in the country.

It measures temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, wind speed, soil temperature, surface temperature, barometric pressure, humidity and snow cover several times a day at pre-determined intervals.

Over 55 years, it has generated a massive amount of data.

For example, SRC data suggests that average winter temperatures — both average highs and average lows — are increasing.

The trendline for average winter minimum temperatures has increased to about -16 C currently from nearly -22 C 55 years ago.

Over the same period, trendlines suggest that the average number of days each year with temperatures below -35 C has decreased to zero currently, down from nine previously, and that the average number of days annually with temperatures below -30 C has decreased to approximately 2.5 currently, down from 25 a year in the mid-1960s.

The trend toward warmer winters will continue in the coming decades and will result in new pest- and disease-related challenges, Wittrock says.

She points to the expansion of the tick populations throughout the province’s farming region as evidence that insect species are becoming more adept at surviving the Saskatchewan winter.

“The insects are going to overwinter a lot easier. We’re already seeing that,” she says.

The length of the frost-free growing season in Saskatoon is also increasing, and growing degree days during the growing season show a steadily upward-rising trendline.

Based on her data, cumulative growing degree days between May 1 and Sept. 30 have increased, on average, to nearly 1,700 currently from less than 1,500 in the mid-1960s, a trendline increase of roughly 13 percent.

That suggests that in the future, Saskatchewan farmers may be inclined to grow different crops that require more heat units, such as corn and soybeans.

Wittrock cautions however that annual and seasonal variabilities, both in temperature and precipitation, will continue to frustrate such efforts.

In fact, statistical evidence already suggests that Saskatoon is experiencing greater weather variability, and that extreme weather events are occurring more frequently than they have in the past.

The spring of 2019 was the driest spring ever recorded at the climate reference station, she says.

“We’ve also noticed more extreme summer time rain events — both floods and droughts — that are incredibly hard to forecast,” she adds.

Here we fu cking go again

Les Henry "But no one will say what thermometers they average to come up with the global temperature."

When Henry says something like this, take it with a grain of salt.

If Les was a climate scientist he would know how long term temperature records are collected and what data sources are used. But since he is a soil scientists........

Does he believe that NASA, NOAA, The World Meteorological Organization, The American Meteorological Organization, the British MET, The Japanese Meteorological Agency don't have reliable data to back up their conclusions about human caused climate change?

But since he is a retired soil scientist how would he know?

[fjlip]

"But no one will say what thermometers they average to come up with the global temperature."

Exactly, my question, never is explained anywhere, just believe. Unreal amount of errors possible in such calculations.

Just a distraction, look chuck a squirrel! Ignore real world issues, focus on an opinion. IMPOSSIBLE TO PROVE OR DISPROVE.

Anytime weather reports are sunny, warmer, everybody smiling and happy...COLD SNOW RAIN always bad news... guess we will all die happy in 8-10 years.

Thank somebody/something if getting/staying warmer, because COLD is death. Nobody wants COLD.

Well geez Suzuki ain't no climate scientist either and Gore isn't one at all. I would say Henry is closer to the field than either of those two clowns.

[chuckChuck]

So who was the genius that thought paying Patrick Moore former Greenpeace activist $10,000 to speak in Regina to say that the climate has always changed and the science of human caused global warming is wrong and CO2 has little effect on the climate!

So at $10,000 plus expenses a presentation, it's pretty clear why Patrick Moore is more than pleased to spout climate change denial nonsense. You don't have to do many presentations at 10000 a pop to make a nice tidy sum for the year.

Moore once famously said that Roundup is safe to drink! But when offered a chance to drink a glass of Roundup by a film maker he suddenly changed his mind, ended the interview and said "I am not an idiot" Well apparently you are if you think Roundup is safe to drink! LOL

I wonder what Al Gore charges to speak?

[fjlip]

carbon tax chuck you and your peers can donate to greta inc. !

donate and worship at St. Greta the Abused

[helmach]

I wonder what Al Gore charges to speak?

To give his climate change presentation, Al Gore charges 100k to be the keynote speaker. 100k provides a little more incentive chucky. One would wonder if he is a little biast towards his paycheck?

[fjlip]

dozens of SCIENTISTS got every guess WRONG...love it!
