Grim, why don't you catch that bus that poirot and bonmot are on going to sooky land; what complete alarmist drivel, quoting a UN author no less; the UN is the world's biggest and most corrupt bureacracy; when has the UN ever been right about anything? Yet all of a sudden we are supposed to accept it is right about not only the weather for next week but what the climate is going to be in a century.

Sea levels are actually falling and your comments about CO2 concentrations in greenhouse is grotesque; about 1000 ppm is ideal for most plants and that level is less than in a closed room with 2 people in it.

cohenite,

"Sea levels are actually falling...."

Is that so?

Perhaps you might like to provide a relevant link.

When I was six on a bus on the way to the beach, an old gentleman told me that someone had pulled out the plug and all the water at the beach had gone. (I was actually quite disappointed when we arrived and the water was still there).

Did you happen to meet an old gentleman on a bus....

I was that old gentleman on the bus poirot; I like scaring kids; grown-ups too.

Sea level dropping:

Note the usual disclaimer at the end confirming AGW; I love it; even when the evidence is so strong against AGW the officials have to concede it they still say, "just you wait, the bogeyman will come back".

Poirot, betcha you can see what the geography undergraduate (I mean self proclaimed "climatologist") can't see in that NASA graph.

It's obvious he hasn't done time series statistical analysis.

Sheesh, following his thought processes, I bet he could argue it's going to be winter in 6 months time.

Here's a trick question that will confuse him - which hemisphere?

Must be getting cracked over at his, JoNova's or Jen's blog to spout such drivel over here.

Nasty little chap aren't you bonmot; I don't have to do the time series statistical analysis it was done here which also answers your stupid [you've graduated from idiot to stupid, congratulations] "trick" question about hemispheres:

And here's a nice little article about NASA 'doctoring' of sea level rise:

Bonmot, I'm happy to discuss the 'science' of AGW anywhere, anytime because I know I'm on a winner since the AGW science is a pack of lies.

I think this is my quota of comments in this shift so in anticipation of you or your chum poirot saying something stupid: stupid.

Ahh yes, should have known - where all aspiring "climatologists" gravitate to - WUWT.

Of course, "alarmists" do bang on about catastrophic sea level rise - they couldn't be further from the truth. Nevertheless, it will be bad enough, particularly for some.

Similarly, the extremists on the other side ('wannabes' and 'fake sceptics') bang on about AGW being a "pack of lies". Nothing new about that either.

>> Bonmot, I'm happy to discuss the 'science' of AGW anywhere, anytime because I know I'm on a winner ... <<

Ok spinner, show me your (Anthony Cox) 'thesis' published in a reputable journal, say the Journal of Climatology - I will discuss it there, like how real science is done. You knew that, no?

No, cohenite doesn't know that. He thinks science can be 'won' or 'lost' on public blog-sites.

Happy and healthy festive season everybody, see you next year.
