Interesting to see Jon J and his blind followers rejecting such detailed information by simply denying the models. If we don't use models, what do we use? Jon J's strategy seems to be a combination of pointing to error bars and hoping for the best. This is just not good enough.

Godo, the denialists - in their attitude to mainstream science - are very much like those who cling to a belief in homeopathy where it does not fit medical science.

Andrew - go back and look at your own article.. you talk about increases in CO2 and, in particular, note that it is increasing at around 2ppm a year. Quite right. That's been the trend for a decade now (up a bit last year). But 2ppm times 90 years is 180 ppm, so we are looking at an increase of 50 per cent in CO2 by the turn of the century.. assuming the trend holds of course.. but that level is well under that required by earlier warnings of apocylpse.. so what's going on.. aren't the goalposts moving here..

I was lucky. I went to read Andrews credentials, before the article, as I often do.
Then I glanced at the map above, then the first sentence of the paragraph below, the one claiming against all recent research, that hurricanes & floods have increased by a factor of 2 since 1980. I did not bother reading the rest, as I guessed it would be full of just such misinformation. Are we still in grant application time? Posted by Hasbeen, Friday, 11 February 2011 11:51:46 AM
