Scientific theory is theory. Scientific fact is fact. There was no dispute the earth is round once proof was established. There is no proof of climate change. A short span in a glimpse of time isn't enough for an intelligent mind. If I drive 87 mph on i85 the whole way to durm. Then I drive 90 for 30 seconds and 35 in the neighborhoods. Does that mean I've been speeding the whole way? Kyrie Irving disagrees with you.

You know in LA we mean "driving between meetings" when we say "walking out of a meeting". (In this case I wasn't behind the wheel so I was obeying all traffic laws that I'm aware of.)

Yes, worldwide averages over a sample size of what, 100 years out of 4.5 billion years of history? So probably about the same proportion as his backyard compared to the whole planet.

The whole point of evaluating the recent warming trend is to predict our future. The same way a meteorologist considers historical trends, but still needs to analyze the current storm track in order to forecast anything meaningful. All that we need to be concerned with is this current storm and where it's headed. Or, if you don't like the storm analogy, then use a happier one. Personally, lightning storms get me excited. But, like I said before, it's all out of our control, anyway. We need to just inhabit another planet soon. That storyline is much more fun.
row_33 Posted July 13, 2017 Posted July 13, 2017 Is Scientific American's analysis of the situation a decent view? Larsen, D pitched a perfect game in a World Series.

What's the old saying? Many a truth is said in jest... Also Stargate SG-1 and this classic movie documentary...

Meteorologists have enough knowledge to predicate the track of a storm that has a lifespan of a week. But recent 'warming trends' don't account for .0001% of the knowledge required to predict climate trends of thousands or tens of thousands of years...aka... "climate change". And yes, it is all out of our control anyway so all this "stop climate change" nonsense is the absolute pinnacle of the intersection between ignorance and hubris.

Climate change has become dogma, a religion. It's definitely not about the science any more.
