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."

      there is no difference between being a skeptic and a denialist. Any questioning of the presented idea makes the questioner a denialist. In any situation, if a person is less fervent in their belief and anger about warming, then that person is a denialist. This makes it true, that any time two people are in a room together,no matter how strongly pro-AGW they both are, one of them is a denialist.

    Do you "bronies" realize that you are a disgrace to humanity? Your mere existence is worse than Hitler, the Soviets, Native American Genocide, and all suffering and death to come combined. Know why? Because your predecessors survived through it, and you spend your days wishing that you could have sex with a horse. How would your medieval ancestors, breaking their backs in fields just to have their towns pillaged and raped feel about you slobbering over this shit? You are literally the lowest of the low, the scum of the earth.

    Would it be wrong to point out that climate studies are nearly universally sponsored by governments, which obviously have a vested interest in "proving" their party's stand ?

    If money corrupts climate studies, then all climate studies are corrupted, and there should be no signal.

    Hmmmm, maybe that's exactly what's happening here.
