The Last Ten Years of Global Warming Never happened

but you will believe any random person that tells you that dolphins "rape".

I've heard of this to.
Not to derail the thread but you're being awfully Closed Minded Aren't You?

Dolphins try to rape people??
I heard on manswers tonight that dolphins have been known to try to rape human beings.......... is that true?

Absolutely true. Male dolphins are known to gang rape other dolphins, male and female, and they are not real picky about what species they mate with. There is a news story every year or so about dolphins trying to rape swimmers.

"The woman taken by the dolphin was 37 year old pilates instructor and professional dancer, Tanya Halerfan of Liverpool, NY . Authorities are still looking for Halerfan.
Bob Grunderson of the National Coast Guard made a statement to the press stating, “Our search for Miss Halerfan or her remains will continue though we hold no hope of finding either. In past experience with cases of dolphin kidnapping and sexual assault the victims are usually never found.”

"There are at least 14 cases of dolphin rape reported each year in the United States, these usually occur near the shore where victims are able to escape before they can be dragged into a dolphin rape cave. There is no real estimate of how many deaths are the result of dolphin rape each year as many of these occur in open water where there are few eyewitnesses if any."

RAPE
As far as the whole G W thing goes, You're Kind of,,,,,,

When it's actually probably nothing more than,,,,,,,

Well - it's happening where I am in Southern California. We don't have the extremes that other people are getting but it is it getting warmer and damper near every year. The winters are dryer too.

Deny reality all you want. Agrue about causes.

But there is no hiding from the facts. Facts can be spun, can even be faked; but reality can't be - look around you - climate is changing at an alarming pace and the pace is increasing every year.

If you don't know the difference between weather and climate, than you shouldn't be participating in this discussion.

a reply to: ChesterJohn

Do you have a source for this story?

The religion of controlled Science, is a SCI-OP.......

And should be totally exposed for what it is, nothing more than a complete and total control scheme, that is allowed to advance here , some their, but never all the way , in any way.

It is controlled and processed, framed in every way to make us all divided, and most importantly, to waste our time and make us look like idiots.

No one pissed in my coffee, but I do call ignorance and bs when I see it. People who start sensationalist threads based on absolutely nothing have it coming, and the idiots to star them.

A simple, easy engine search, settles the posters argument about the changing Antarctic ice mass. This information isn't coded.

Please show me the research and links to your claims.

Even though there has been hoaxes on the topic of global warming, it doesn't mean that global warming isn't happening. The Earth goes through many phases, much of these unpredictable, but still we shouldn't deny it outright. I really don't care if they're making money off of it as long as we're doing something about it. Hey, they got our attention right? Good, now people will actually consider changing their lifestyles to help the environment. That's the outcome right? Help the environment, make some money. I would rather call it climate change but too many people stuck with global warming.

Dear Nixie_Nox,

I'm speaking sincerely here, I want your help. I don't think I've used the word "weather" when I meant say "climate," or vice versa. Please point out my error. i will apologize for any error made.

But to the broader question, "What is the difference between weather and climate?" NASA give us an answer:

The difference between weather and climate is a measure of time. Weather is what conditions of the atmosphere are over a short period of time, and climate is how the atmosphere "behaves" over relatively long periods of time.

But how many months constitute a "relatively long period of time?" I would appreciate an answer to help me avoid any possible mistakes in confusing them.

With respect,
Charles1952

The point is NCDC has been cooking the books making the temps higher. they said that 2012 was the warmest year but they went back and made 1936 the warmest again.

Ah OK - so it's about you and your right wing friends' grossly false accusations about "cooking the books", and not about the reality of AGW. Got it - thanks for clearing that up.

Would you care to address the Michael Mann "Hockey Stick?" Or the E-mail scandal?

Your OP is pretty messed. It was the Arctic which will be soon disappearing, not the Antarctic. We're on track to see it disappear by decade end, so he really wasn't far off.

The heating went more into the deep oceans over the last decade. That explains the seeming disappearance of radiative heating during the time period.

It's called confirmation bias. You read what matches up your preconceived notions, and disregard conflicting data. The data which blows your confusion out of the water is readily available, so I don't much bother with the deniers in 2014. Too far gone.

Well no # sherlock, if people paid attention to their environment over the long term -- AND REMEMBERED IT -- most people would recognize a normal, rhythmic ebb & flow of temperatures and weather conditions rather than screech about abrupt weather doom porn.

I swear, humans have memory issues. This summer, while hot & muggy and nasty, isn't the worst one I've sweated & panted through down here, not by a long-shot. I've lived in the same general region of this state all my life, and I've yet, since the mid-to-late 90's, seen a return of those nasty record-breaking, heat-stroke inducing heatwaves (no, the heat index doesn't count) We've come close, sure, but so did other years back in the day.
Just because it feels hotter than the Devil's sack to me doesn't mean it really is via the thermometer. There's a reason the heat index values are used, it's to calculate an approximate "feels like" temperature based on actual temperature & humidity (hopefully most know this already)
A lot more than just humidity goes into it, steering currents, highs, lows, ridges, jet stream, everything moves. Your environment is not a static bubble in time, and never will be. You'll get everything from pleasantly cool to WTF hot in your lifetime no matter where you live, because that's the way this floating rock rolls.

Sense you plainly only believe in G W and nothing else in the world or ocean matters or is real, here.

Sexually Aggressive Dolphin Tries To 'Get Busy' With Scuba Divers

A frisky dolphin who swims near the Cayman Islands apparently has the hots for humans, as a shocking new video amply demonstrates.

The dolphin -- who has been nicknamed "Stinky the Loner Dolphin" -- has one purpose in mind: "Getting busy" with scuba divers.

One recent encounter was filmed by Michael Maes, an underwater videographer based on Grand Cayman Island.

The clip, which Maes posted on his YouTube page, shows Stinky trying to "ride" Maes. In the process, Stinky pushes the human down to the bottom of the ocean floor, a distance Maes said could have been 400 feet.

While dolphins attemping to hook up with humans is not uncommon, it is unusual for humans to return the favor.

However, it did happen in at least one case.

Malcolm Brenner, 60, author of "Wet Goddess," a 2011 book about a man's nine-month sexual relationship with a dolphin, claims it's based on a real-life love affair with a dolphin named Dolly back in 1970, when he was in his early 20s.

Now this will be coming to YOU from a Source YOU can Respect, The Huffington post!

I have a friend, she's been a meteorologists for more than 45 years now.
She pretty much believes Gore is Full Of Bull Sh^st Too!
Her favorite saying is, "climate is what you expect and weather is what you get."
So maybe you should take a Deep Breath and Relax, you can believe What Ever your Little Heart Wants To Believe!

But, Try not to Force your believe system on me, it's not a Religion YET!

But remember that Gore doesn't have anything to do with the debate on Global Warming. Not really. He makes some speeches and made a movie that I still haven't seen all the way through yet nor have I ever seen any of his speeches or read any of his articles.

Man Made Global Warming is actually science...from thousands of scientists and hundreds of thousands of support personnel and researchers. It's real science, not some talking head or news pundit.

To be frank, I don't buy it in any of it's dressings. Has anyone ever heard of the African Humid Period? As a brief refresher, it was a period when the Earth boasted a wet, green Sahara rather than an arid desert one. Unless someone wants to blame the Narmer dynasty for AGW, people really do need to step back and realize something very important.

The Earth will do whatever it wants, and it doesn't give a rat's backside how many trees are hugged in protest. 5,000 years ago, it turned a vast grassland into an inhospitable wasteland. All it has to do to do it again is keep on shifting it's wobble. Now, who seems to have the upper hand in climate change, keeping that in mind?

We still have to eat, breathe and live here in the meantime. Let's focus on not crapping where we eat, before we render everything too tainted to consume at all.

The poster needs to change the sensationalist and bad propaganda title too, I read an article on temperatures in the US and thought it applied to the whole world, and I really have no clue how GW works.

It doesn't matter, really. The author is wrong, NOAA data does not say what he claims it does. The data actually shows that over the last decade, mean temperatures in the U.S. have peaked, dropped a bit, went up again, dropped a bit more, and are now on the way up again. No one has ever claimed that the temperatures for any given year were going to be always warmer than the last and cooler than the next. Global and hemispherical climate events like El Nino and La Nina and other events provide buffering or amplification for the AGW effects, so there are obviously year on year variations.

Here is a link to the NOAA data graph for the U.S.: data.giss.nasa.gov...

Here is what NASA says about it: NASA Finds 2012 Sustained Long-Term Climate Warming Trend

While the globe experienced relatively warm temperatures in 2012, the continental U.S. endured its warmest year on record by far, according to NOAA, the official keeper of U.S. weather records.

"The U.S. temperatures in the summer of 2012 are an example of a new trend of outlying seasonal extremes that are warmer than the hottest seasonal temperatures of the mid-20th century," GISS director James E. Hansen said. "The climate dice are now loaded. Some seasons still will be cooler than the long-term average, but the perceptive person should notice that the frequency of unusually warm extremes is increasing. It is the extremes that have the most impact on people and other life on the planet."

It is the MULTI-decadal TREND that is important. Here is something the illustrates the problem with trying to deny the warming trend by using 'just the last decade' (or any single decade):

The Escalator

The usual subjects of the denier press is repeating the same story over and over - one blog with an agenda is feeding them all with one piece of propaganda misinformation.

There is no such analysis reflecting any change of trend in actual science blogs and certainly not from NOAA.

I can only speak for myself, but here in Brazil the temperatures are rising. I've lived most of my life in a city that is known for being cold (for our standards) and I can assure you that a lot has changed. For instance, in Rio every single year we have a new maximum temperature record. I can't even remember the last time that I wore a jacket or a sweater.

We are in the end of the autumn and I must keep my AC so I can sleep decently...
