Top Ten Reasons Climate Change is a Hoax

TopTenAlGore2

By Elmer Beauregard

The Senate voted this week on whether Climate Change is real or a hoax, I think it’s a hoax and here’s why.

I’m sure you’ve heard in the news that 2014 was supposed to be the hottest year ever. If it actually was “hottest year ever” you’d think all the terrible calamities that are supposed to happen would be happening now but instead the opposite is happening.

1. Record Ice

In 2014 there was record sea ice in Antarctica  in fact a global warming expedition got stuck in it. Arctic sea ice has also made a nice comeback in 2014. The Great lakes had record ice Lake Superior only had 3 ice free months in 2014. You’d think that in the hottest year ever that ice would be melting like Al Gore said.

2. Record Snow

2014 saw record snowfall in many areas, remember when they said that global warming would cause snow to disappear and children won’t know what snow is.

3. Record Cold

In 2014 we saw all kinds of cold records remember the Polar Vortex? You’d think that we’d be breaking all kinds of heat records in “the hottest year ever”

4. Oceans Are Rising Much Less Than Predicted

Al Gore predicted that oceans would rise 20 feet by 2100, it looks like were on track for about a foot. 80% of the tide gauges show less rise than the official “global average”. Many tide gauges show no rise in sea level, and almost none show any acceleration over the past 20 years.

5. Polar Bears Are Thriving

You’d think that Polar Bears would really be in trouble in 2014 “the hottest year ever” but they are thriving.

6. Moose Are Making A Comeback

A few years ago the moose population in Minnesota dropped rapidly and they immediately blamed global warming, then they did a study and found out it was actually wolves that were killing the moose. Wolves have been taken off the endangered species list and are now endangering other species so they opened a wolf hunting season in Minnesota and the moose are coming back. It turns out it had nothing to do with global warming in fact the years when the moose population declined were some very cold ones.

7. 99% of Scientists don’t believe in Catastrophic Man-Made Global Warming

You’ve probably heard over and over that 99% of scientist believe in global warming well the opposite is true. That talking point came from a study where only 75 scientists said they believe in global warming on the other hand over 31,000 scientists have signed a petition saying they don’t believe in Catastrophic Man-Made Global Warming.

8. Nature produces much more CO2 than man

In 2014 NASA finally launched a satellite that measures CO2 levels around the globe. They assumed that most of the CO2 would be coming from the industrialized northern hemisphere but much to their surprise it was coming from the rainforests in South America, Africa and China.

9. It Isn’t Actually the Warmest Year.

If you look at the satellite data 2014 was not the warmest year ever in fact there has been no global warming for over 18 years. The Reason they can say it’s the warmest year is because they are using the ground weather station data which is heavily influenced by the Urban Heat Island effect, many of which are near pavement. Even still they had to cherry pick that data to get at the warmest year ever and it is only the warmest by only two-100ths of a degree within a dataset that has a variability of a half of a degree. The fact they they had to ignore accurate data and fudge sketchy data to push their agenda proves (IMHO) that climate change is a hoax.

10. The Hypocrisy of the Main Players

One of the main reasons you can tell that global warming is a hoax is that the main purveyors of global warming live lifestyles opposite of what they preach, they all own multiple large homes and yachts and they fly around the world in private jets pushing their propaganda. Not to mention some people such as Al Gore actually profit from Carbon Taxes and other green energy laws. If they actually believed what they preached they would be leading quite different lives.

    More fraud exposed in this “science” called global warming. When will people wake up to the understanding that this is nothing but a giant fraud and a complete waste of money? Here is my biggest problem, outside of the hypocrites pushing this crap, these people calling for “solutions” have nothing on their mind but job killing regulations, more government control (commies) or more taxes. This is what I would tell the Pope along with anybody else. Spend your own damn money to resolve this “global catastrophe” and leave the rest of us alone.

    Catastrophic Atmospheric/Oceanic CO2 Feedback

    I ran into this concept. It kind of makes sense but where does it go wrong?

    Carbon Dioxide cannot be the driver of global temperature. The oceans have 50 times the carbon dioxide
    our atmosphere has. The plant life in the ocean depends upon it. Water retains its carbon dioxide (carbonation) much better when it is cool and looses it (goes flat) when it warms. When the
    climate warms so do the oceans, releasing carbon dioxide. In the ‘Carbon Dioxide Driven Climate’
    scenario the climate warms because of an increase in carbon dioxide. But then this would cause the oceans to warm releasing more carbon dioxide. With more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere the climate would warm even more and the oceans would then warm again releasing even more carbon dioxide… You see the problem. This scenario necessitates a vicious cycle resulting in a permanently boiling earth, which has never been the case. Whatever the cause of global warming is the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere must be a result, not the driving force.

    where is all of the sources for this information???

  5. jmiertschin October 13, 2015 at 10:20 pm #

    The very first point is record ice. The Antarctic is having record ice according to the link provided that takes you to a NASA web page. However if you read the rest of the information on the page and watch the video it becomes clear that this one fact does not mean that temperatures aren’t rising global (they are) or that the Earth isn’t experience a net loss of sea ice (it is). In fact they suggest that the growth of the Antarctic ice this year may actually be the result of climate change.

    And if the climate change deniers are interested in using NASA to support their position, then why will they point to this piece of data from NASA but ignore all the other data and analysis that NASA provides, like this:

    I just reviewed NASA’s website and found the “facts” you stated above regarding NASA’s statistics and findings contradict what is actually on their website…just saying. Also, please review old Arctic pictures and compare them to what the Arctic looks like now. If you deny that the Arctic glacier has not been melting in a more rapid rate than in the past, I pray your naive perception changes one day as you are in denial.

    Here is a link to the leaked documents that show that exxon knew global warming would happen from 1977. They also show how exxon planned to lie and spread doubt such as this article so they could continue to destroy our planet for profit. Please read and share. We are in this together, it is our home!

  11. Mistrix October 17, 2015 at 12:09 pm #

    Exxon knew about global warming back in 1977. Documents were just leaked showing they knew, and planned to lie and cover it up so they could continue to make profits. They even made a plan for when the ice caps melted they would drill for oil there as well. Check it out!

    1. “Record ice”
    According to the national snow and ice center the slight decrease in artic ice is because of el nino. http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/

    2. “Record Snow”
    To claim that record snowfall is inconsistent with a warming world betrays a lack of understanding of the link between global warming and extreme precipitation. Warming causes more moisture in the air which leads to more extreme precipitation events. This includes more heavy snowstorms in regions where snowfall conditions are favourable. Far from contradicting global warming, record snowfall is predicted by climate models and consistent with our expectation of more extreme precipitation events.

    3. “Record Cold”
    How can a planet undergoing “global warming” experience record cold? Well, it’s a big planet, and the weather has naturally crazy extremes. We expect to see many locations experience all-time daily and monthly cold records each month. It’s just that the number of these cold records will be outnumbered by all-time heat records, when averaged over the globe, and over decades. It is called Global Warming for good reason! A 2009 study led by Dr. Jerry Meehl of the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, CO found that in the U.S., the ratio of the number of record daily highs to lows was near 1:1 in the 1960s and 1970s, but had increased to more than 2:1 during the decade of the 2000s, due to our warming climate.

    4. “Oceans Are Rising Much Less Than Predicted”
    Saying it rose less than predicted is kinda like a negative way of saying IT DID RISE! So you admit it is rising, but are critical that it’s not as much as we thought it could be?? This totally does not disprove global warming.

    The blue line in the graph below clearly shows sea level as rising, while the upward curve suggests sea level is rising faster as time goes on. The upward curve agrees with global temperature trends and with the accelerating melting of ice in Greenland and other places.

    Because sea level behavior is such an important signal for tracking climate change, skeptics seize on the sea level record in an effort to cast doubt on this evidence. Sea level bounces up and down slightly from year to year so it’s possible to cherry-pick data falsely suggesting the overall trend is flat, falling or linear. You can try this yourself. Starting with two closely spaced data points on the graph below, lay a straight-edge between them and notice how for a short period of time you cancreate almost any slope you prefer, simply by being selective about what data points you use. Now choose data points farther apart. Notice that as your selected data points cover more time, the more your mini-graph reflects the big picture. The lesson? Always look at all the data, don’t be fooled by selective presentation.

    5. “Polar Bears Are Thriving”
    “Hottest year ever” refers to a global average increase of like 1 degree. So, its not the heat that might hurt the polar bears. It’s the loss of their habitat as the arctic ice melts.
    http://www.polarbearsinternational.org/about-polar-bears/what-scientists-say/are-polar-bear-populations-booming. Concerned people think it will be a problem in the future. Your statement in no way disproves global warming!

    6. “Moose Are Making A Comeback”
    So they suspected decreases in moose population could be global warming and it turned out to be wolfs. And? This really doesnt disprove global warming whatsoever.

    7. “You’ve probably heard over and over that 99% of scientist believe in global warming well the opposite is true. That talking point came from a study where only 75 scientists said they believe in global warming on the other hand over 31,000 scientists have signed a petition saying they don’t believe in Catastrophic Man-Made Global Warming.”
    This is so untrue and twisted that I’m pretty much convinced you work for exxon…
    First of all the saying is, 97% of CLIMATE scientists believe global warming is real and man made. They got this number by polling CLIMATE scientists and CLIMATE studies. The whole 31,000 scientists poll makers won’t reveal how or who they distributed the polls to or how many people disagreed with the poll. They are also polling scientists of any sort as long as they have a bachelors degree. Not climate scientists. It’s total bunk meant to make people unsure about climate change.

    8. “Nature produces much more CO2 than man”
    This is misleading because there are different types of co2 produced by man and nature. Scientists can seperate them and specifically show you how much man made carbon has increased in the atmosphere. See link for a detailed, scientific explaination.
    http://www.ucsusa.org/global_warming/science_and_impacts/science/human-contribution-to-gw-faq.html#.ViJNmsvnZnE

    9. “It actually isn’t the warmest year”
    I’ve posted some graphs so you can see for yourself.

    10.” The Hypocrisy of the Main Players”
    This opinion that the main people use lots of jets and cars doesn’t even say anyone specifically. The only one named is al gore. He probably has profited from clean energy. So what?? Someone is going to. At least hes making money from trying to make the world a better place. Big oil makes billions!!! They can afford to pay people to write these articles that dont disprove global warming, they just make you feel unsure. Shell oil is the richest company on earth. They know they are destroying the planet for you and your children and they dont care. There may very well be people who push for clean energy so they can make money. We live in a capitalist society and people look for opportunities. Dont let that distract you from the atrocities big oil is committing.

    You’re seeing snow in places that they shouldn’t be, and that’s because the cold can shift from the Arctic to the South. As the United States gets colder, the Arctic gets warmer. Though over the past thirty years Polar Bear population may have increased (there isn’t clear statistics), Arctic birds and other wildlife have started to decrease. This is because of climate change, whether it be man-made or natural, it’s happening. The main reason this is happening is the change in sea-ice, and it’s more of a “rapid shift rather than gradual change (http://www.sciencemag.org/content/297/5586/1510.short).” Penguins, specifically, have been losing their habitat, feathers, and population due the actions of humans. The emission of greenhouse gas has a great impact on the lives of marine wildlife and Arctic species overall.

    Some extra resources:

    If there’s one anomaly in one particular spot, then climate deniers will say that proves global warming is a hoax.

    If you spin a spinner with the numbers 1-100 and it hits 1 once, you can’t say it will hit 1 every time.

    My new equation of the near steady state balance of the species is given as
    The annual increase Delta(%) + 170/T where T is the mean life time. As long as the increase in Green house gases is kept at 2.5% level, there is no warming expected.,
    However, in my view the global warming is confused with extreme hetrogegiety of the weather ie Temperature too low or two high. However the net results do not show any warming

    Common sense is being bred out of our species.

    Yes, the earth has had climate variances over the centuries but this warming is rather sudden. It is also A FACT that when you have a closed sphere (any 9th grade science student can do this), you can change the temperature in the sphere simply by altering the gases within,

    Peer review science says man caused global warming is real. Peer reviewed science took man to the moon and gave us computers and modern life.

    I think what makes me laugh the most about these dumb websites and articles is the shitty links. Like, honestly, several of your links are dead ends, ending in Error 404 pages or otherwise missing pages. One of your links actually disagrees with the point you were attempting to make. Several linked to other websites, whose articles link back to your articles; you cite your buddy who is citing you? That’s gonna give you accurate information. And one doesn’t even discuss the point you were arguing. Theres a hoax afoot and it isn’t climate change. It’s the idea that this article actually proves anything, when most of it’s “proof” is non-existant. You know who benefits from climate-change-denial? Big oil companies, corporations that create high gas emmissions, and their bottom lines and pockets. You know who benefits from working towards a greener future? People who aren’t breathing in fumes and smog day in and day out, fish and aquatic animals that aren’t being killed by oil spills. Arctic creatures who aren’t losing their habitat. Less use of nuclear and coal power, and more use of solar panels and wind turbines means better environment, less animals in danger of extinction, less ecosystems being thrown into chaos.

    Why do people believe temperature on land ( specifically in the us ) effects the temperature of the ocean. Sea ice and glacial ice aren’t the same as sea ice cyclically exspands and retracts. It really sucks that our government is so political that we can’t put our differences aside to try to focus on a reasonable goal for m reducing a problem that an overwhelming majority of scientists agree on. Including the army and nasa ( i feel like that needed to be mentioned). try to remember that when you associate your self with a political party it doesn’t mean you have to believe what ever they are yelling you.

    Take your education into your own hands read the data from NASA don’t agree with whatever someone tells you just because you uselly agree with them

    How many of these websites exist? And how many people use them as a factual reference?

    I’m working on a project for school titled “Can we make it as a species?”. I figure that if it’s 1/5 of the population of the world then the answer is no.
    I have found that the individuals who fall into said population have no ability to restrain themselves from reproducing and passing on these facts to their offspring. Resulting in a population growth that will soon exceed the remaining 4/5ths of the world.
    I have also found that this population comprises approximately 0.00% of the scientific community, that uses the scientific method properly. No knowledge of proper science will be passed to future generations and all books containing such knowledge will most likely be destroyed (not recycled) . Preventing them from saving themselves from themselves with technological advancements.
    Resulting in the demise of the human race or at least it’s devolved form .

    I know it’s cheating but I was just wondering if someone could give me the quick answer. I figure if you are an avid user of this site I’m sure you have bookmarked all the others. If not I’m I’m sure you can take a head count while sharing cups of juice with each other while discussing how to ruin the only thing we all share, our planet.

    if global warming wasn’t really then how is the temperature chart rising from year to year? Another thing is that polar bears are drowning because of the ice melting and the snow will reflect the heat from the sun out into space which with the snow spread apart it is causing the earth to get hotter and another problem is us. We find ourselves as unharmful to the environment but think again because we are causing most of the pollution and most of the global warming.We can prevent this from our earth trying to burn up and covered in toxic waste that you have even made because everyone is guilty and that why global warming is real.

    • Realisticallyrealistic November 20, 2015 at 7:31 pm #

      Simple solution to the issues that you have stated are as follows. We need to create some sort of floatation device to assist the polar bears on there long the arduous swims.

      When it comes to reflection of sunlight, covering the areas of polar ice caps that have melted with mirrors will not only solve this problem but will greatly increase the amount of reflection.

      Finally when it comes to the toxic waste, the only solution to pollution is dilution.By melting ice caps we will increase the volume of water in the oceans ultimately diluting all of the toxic waste.

      PS. This is not my answer but I figured I’d save one of the lunatics following these websites some time and answer for them.

      You’ve been mislead by liars using temperature readings taken from weather instruments installed in incorrect locations are places that have become incorrect locations over the years. I used to site and install weather stations in the Air Force so you know where I’m coming from. You are being scammed because NASA has very accurate weather satellites in orbit but the actual temperatures they measure don’t agree with the president’s warmest agenda so that’s not what’s reported. Savvy? Polar bears drowning is total Al Gore BS! The greenies were claiming they were reduced to something like 3,000 bears when an actual survey counted over 25,000. The only thing that determines their numbers are the amount the Northern countries like Canada, Russia, Denmark, Sweden, Etc.allow to be shot each year. Climate change IS real but homo sap has very little to do with it so please don’t confuse pollution control, a good thing, with the human-caused climate change alarmist hoax. And while everyone is “alarmed” about carbon dioxide remember the effect of CO2 on the world’s temperature is logarithmic so the first 20 ppm are were the most effective and all the rest hardly matters at all. Bet you forgot that little FACT from chemistry class, didn’t you? Also, the amount of water in the air has the same effect as CO2 and there is up to 100 times as much water as CO2. The amount of CO2 that we emit has a negligible effect on our temperature compared to the smallest volcano or tropical rain forest.

    I would love to see some actual evidence behind any of your claims against “Global Warming”, which isn’t even the proper name for Climate Change. Please, tell me how it would benefit ANYBODY to lie about climate change. There’s no motive, very little education around climate change, and plenty of people sourcing other idiots and lies as evidence. Arthur Robinson, creator of the survey you linked, had a degree in Geography, and even explicitly argued that consensus does not equate to fact on several occasions.
    Also, your misuse of a meme at the top of what’s attempting to pass as a scholarly document really discredits what you’re saying.

    Sincerely,
    A Friendly Highschooler

      Perhaps the fact that it’s a trillion dollar enterprise? Money is a large factor for many people. Ego also has it’s part, in the sense that NOAA has altered temperature records in order for their models to show increase in temperature. There are many more scientific studies that disprove anthropogenic climate change than prove it. Most of what we read in favor of ACC is conjecture that always begins or ends with 99% of scientists agree, and then no science is included in the document.

      Politics will always rule these issues, and distort their truth

        Sure, it may be an enterprise, but a large number of environmental organizations run as non-profits. The money in oil and gas is far greater. NOAA had completely valid justification in altering the hottest month on record, which really doesn’t affect the argument as anyone could derive this from the data. As for the consensus argument, I agree this is often misused, but this very document does the same.

      Nobody in their right mind would argue against climate change which is a natural process that has been occurring long before humans evolved. Anthropogenic or human caused climate change is another matter entirely and is possibly the greatest hoax perpetuated by the United Nations since the Iranian oil for food debacle. When you hear the alarmists screeching about carbon dioxide and the so-called “greenhouse effect” just remember your chemistry. The effect of CO2 in the atmosphere is logarithmic so the first amount has the greatest effect while the later additional amounts not so much. (Of course to glass ceiling covers the earth so gasses that aren’t absorbed by water or vegetation do escape into space. Also remember the greatest and by far most abundant greenhouse gas is water, many hundreds of times more abundant than CO2. Ask yourself why administration news sources give temperatures from surface weather stations located in heat islands (cities and airbases) when much more accurate data is available from NASA satellites. Some might call that cooking the books. You probably noticed some responding to this list can’t comprehend the difference between climate and pollution. Do yourself a favor and watch some utube, or better yet, IMAX space station videos of earth and then try to convince yourself we, homo sap, are yet capable of a little spotting. Teach yourself to think while your mind is still evolving lest you too become a lefty drone.

        Your use of logical fallacies is impeccable. I do not identify with a political party because I strongly believe it creates blindness to opposing parties. As for watching youtube and IMAX, I hardly see how that’s relevant. Regardless of logaritmic scale, pumping it into the atmosphere still has a negative effect. Though growth is decreased, it is still present. Though I’m well aware water vapor is an immense contributing factor, we cannot control water vapor. You yourself just admitted that CO2 has an effect on the atmosphere, and I’m sure you’ll accept that humans produce a large amount of CO2 and other greenhouse gasses. So given these two things we both accept as fact, how can you justify that human-induced climate change is “the greatest hoax”?

        • denoferth December 6, 2015 at 5:15 am #

          It goes to scale. You assume too much. Human generated CO2 is minuscule compared to the vast amounts generated by volcanoes, rain forests, rotting vegetation etc. You seem to be missing that 800 lb gorilla in the room again:CO2’s effects ARE logarithmic and that IS the point. We are nowhere near the amounts the atmosphere contained during earlier epochs and the plants love it. Your argument seems to be even though we can’t measure it, it MUST be harmful because its man-made. If that’s the case remember that the next time you exhale from either end. The point is water is so much more a potent a GH gas than CO2 that worrying about CO2 is a silly distraction. The world is still waiting for the first alarmist to collect the big monetary prize offered by proving just one case of human-caused climate change/global warming.

    Well unless we have a nother ice age eventually the ice will melt .dang I should have been a rocket scientists

    Anthropogenic climate change is a myth and it’s effects have been blown way out of proportion. Fact. That does not however excuse ecological irresponsibility. We must do what we can to preserve the earth as it was, not what we humans wish it to be. When NOAA releases there falsified climate records under subpoena, people will know that once again they were lied to by “those in power”

    If there was no money to be made off of climate change, would there be climate change?
