spooky?

temperature rises driven by rising CO2 levels in the earths atmosphere and polar ice and glacial melting is spooky?

Science is never spooky - metaphysics and philosophy, magic shows etc - they can be spooky

Official: You have been found guilty by the elders of the town of uttering doubt about AGW and so as a blasphemer you are to be stoned to death.
Matthias: Look, I'd had a lovely supper and all I said to my wife was, "That piece of baloney about AGW is, well, baloney!
Official: Blasphemy! He's said it again.
Emma: Yes, he did.
Official: Did you hear him?
Emma: Yes we did. Really.
Official: (suspiciously) Are there any women here today?

chuckle chuckle....

good one- classic movie

Soren ... for one...
and many others ... Roll Eyes

the mugs are so similar in their diatribes its hard to remember who is who... but ... you know who you are.
Conspiracy to delude the world about it is a common theme.

P Lolly?? you disagree with everything else , but you say you 'agree' climate change is happening.??

Is this new??? or are you

1) so intent on playing devils advocate you lost sight of the real
2) just being contrary for the sake of it
3) are unable to communicate effectively. ???

The usual stance. Climate change has always been happening. It's true as far as it goes, but the claim is then that the projected change in climate for the next 100 years is no different to anything we had in the past.

It's the usual deconstruction argument. It's a bit like saying that wild dingos are just the same as dogs, so they are quite safe.

It's failing to see any difference between past clmate with known natural mechanisms, and current and projected climate with well established anthropogenic mechanisms.
