We should prepare for climate change: Professor Bob Carter 1942-2016 : Comments
By Jennifer Marohasy, published 21/1/2016Professor Carter did not like the term sceptic, he considered himself a rationalist, and popular usage of the term 'climate change' a tautology.

When it comes to claims the earth is overheating it is perhaps worth taking a few minutes for a reality check. Have you checked local rainfall and temperature records? That global mean temp is a statistic derived from homogenised data and complex algorithms. What about just looking at local maximum temperatures back 100 years. Do they show a similar trend, or not, to the data at the NASA website? What about sea level rise? Can you see any evidence of sea level rise at your favourite and/or local beach?

It is no use giving 579 sensible advice, Jennifer. He has no desire to be sensible, and has not yet clarified whether he is an ignoramus or a liar. He supports the global warming fraud, so he is one or the other, or both. He says he obtains the nonsense in his posts from NASA.
Since the climate fraud James Hansen left NASA, the front man became Gavin Schmidt, who has the quaint and unscientific notion that global warming has not stopped. Roy Spencer is involved with the satellite measuring of global temperature, and assures us that global warming has stopped. Schmidt was invited to debate the issue with Spencer, but”climate communicator Gavin Schmidt is afraid to discuss global warming on-camera with Roy Spencer” http://tomnelson.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/don-miss-this-absurd-ballet-as-award.html So 579 obtains his nonsense from a science lacking loser. It appears highly likely that he makes up some of the nonsense, as it is too ridiculous even for Schmidt Posted by Leo Lane, Sunday, 24 January 2016 11:35:18 PM

Jennifer.
Doesn’t look like you are going to get any advancement on anything except, descending into abusive language when all else fails. I am glad the world has decided to push forth with a global clean up. Posted by 579, Monday, 25 January 2016 6:43:59 AM

This is the solar plant that fries birds and needs to be supplemented by burning gas to reach operational output?
Although solar heat emission only varies by a small amount, other changes occur during a solar cycle - changes in emissions of other parts of the spectrum and changes in magnetic flux. These influence the climate. This influence is demonstrated by the historical link between sunspot cycles and changes in the earth's climate - e.g. the 'little ice age' which occurred during a period of low sunspot activity.

The standard response of a fraud supporter, like 579, when he hears the truth about himself. He disingenuously describes it as:” descending into abusive language “. A true description of his output as science deficient and untruthful, is considered by 579 to be abusive. He never responds with science or rational assertions, but as a fraud supporter there is nothing available to him but baseless complaints.
Reminiscent of Michael Mann, the “hockey stick” fabricator, who sues people for calling him a fraud, then works hard to prevent the matter from coming to Court, where the evidence will be considered, and a decision given as to whether it is permissible to describe Mann as a fraud. The last thing a fraud supporter wants. What do you mean by this nonsensical statement, 579:” I am glad the world has decided to push forth with a global clean up.” ?

Most change is seen in the northern hemisphere, more so than the southern hemisphere at the moment. Greenland and Arctic ice melt has no doubt got to do with that. Even higher sea level rise is experienced in the northern hemisphere. Even the last ice age was mostly confined to the northern parts of the world.
The upsizing of weather extremes, hotter fires, and deeper floods, and colder and more intense snow storms. The world is in the grip of climate change.
The NASA site is a wealth of information as the science is analysed and concluded, without the need for skepticism.
