We should prepare for climate change: Professor Bob Carter 1942-2016 : Comments

By Jennifer Marohasy, published 21/1/2016

Professor Carter did not like the term sceptic, he considered himself a rationalist, and popular usage of the term 'climate change' a tautology.

the alarmist again with egg (sorry snow) all over their face in the US, Japan and other everywhere else they made idiotic scare predictions. Facts again uncovering the stupidity of those recently having a luv fest in Paris.

At least 579 has retired from the field, relieving us of any more science deficient nonsense in support of the climate fraud.
Good to see the back of you, 579. One less fraud supporter to waste space here.
His last shot, I think, was an expression of faith that the Paris lie-fest would have an effect. Fortunately, the “targets” are not enforceable, so any damage, from the Paris nonsense, is unlikely.

Jennifer,
"When it comes to claims the earth is overheating it is perhaps worth taking a few minutes for a reality check."
I agree completely. A reality check is the quickest way to discredit the claims of fraudsters like Leo. Do you agree that the 2015 temperatures have conclusively disproved the claim that global warming has stopped? It would've been interesting to hear what Bob Carter would've said about it had he survived.

"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?"
Yes they do. There've been quite a lot of temperature records set over the last few years.

"What about sea level rise? Can you see any evidence of sea level rise at your favourite and/or local beach?"
Of course not. Tides and waves make sea level rise imperceptible so far.

runner, bigger storms are entirely consistent with global warming predictions. I suggest you listen to the predictions the scientists made, not the red herring of a few alarmists in the media.

Aidan I suggest you learn what true science is as opposed to soothsaying. Fitting every storm into your narrative is childish and deceitful.

runner, I'm well aware of what true science is.

"Fitting every storm into your narrative is childish and deceitful."
So you were, BY YOUR OWN STANDARDS, being childish and deceitful when you made that "egg (sorry snow) all over their face" comment.

But although it is deceitful to claim that a single storm proves or disproves anything, there is absolutely nothing deceitful about pointing out that scientists predict global warming will result in bigger storms. Indeed it's been known for decades that it would result in either bigger storms or more storms (or both) but more recently modelling has shown that bigger storms is the more likely outcome.
