Think Progress Green has done it again:
July 25, 2011: "As the Arctic ice collapses, global weather patterns are changing in unpredictable ways. The jet stream is being pushed 'further south and bringing arctic cold to much of Eurasia and Japan' and 'increased precipitation and colder temperatures in the winter' in North America...."
January 6, 2012: "Fueled by billions of tons of greenhouse pollution, a surge of record warmth has flooded the United States, shattering records from southern California to North Dakota."
Reminder: The think tank who runs Think Progress
refuses to reveal its funders. You can be sure Consistency Inc. isn't one of them.
Those jet streams have been all over the place lately. Increased atmospheric instability leads to interesting stuff, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteAttacking non-experts who at least make an attempt to point it out isn't very helpful, IMHO.
Yo Bloom,
ReplyDeleteAccording to AGW theory co2 warming leads to more stability not less.
The reason is that with co2 warming the cold dry high latitudes warm more than the warm humid tropics with reduces the temperature gradients available to drive storm intensity.
According to AGW theory co2 warming leads to more stability not less.
ReplyDeleteExcept the areas where there will be increasing extremes, of course.
That is: not.
Best,

Dano,
ReplyDeleteYou never say anything that leads me to believe you know anything about the science behind AGW.
Seems to me your interest in AGW is due to the fact that you have a financial stake in "green" energy?
Two false premises in a row, charles! You're on a roll.
ReplyDeleteThat is: your statement about 'stability' was patently false. As I showed in the link.
No need to make up stuff or flap your hands to hide it, as anyone can scroll up a few millimeters and see.
HTH.
Best,
D
Thanks, Dano. charlesH's problem is that he has a weak grasp on the distinction between the science as opposed to the distortions thereof that he preferentially consumes.
