BEST Study Finds Temperature Changes Explained by GHG Emissions and Volcanoes

Posted by samzenpus on from the it's-getting-hot-in-here dept.

riverat1 writes "The Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature studies latest release finds that land surface temperature changes since 1750 are nearly completely explained by increases in greenhouse gases and large volcanic eruptions. They also said that including solar forcing did not significantly improve the fit. Unlike the other major temperature records BEST used nearly all available temperature records instead of just a representative sample. Yet to come is an analysis that includes ocean temperatures."

      Does that work when you eat beans and shove the can up your ass as a plug?

      No, but it's cheaper than a potato gun and just as exciting when it goes off!

      Replied to the wrong post?

      No, I think he's blaming Climate Change on the followers of "My Little Pony." Perhaps he knows something about magical Pony farts that we should all learn???

    The question is: what is "human nature"?

    Your post, and you, just demonstrated this true answer.
