Al Gore is?It was the 70s, and neither Time nor Newsweek were scientific journals then, just like they are not now.
I know, I know.......vast right wing conspiracy....yadda yadda.....

Al Gore is not the issue.
The "little ice age", wasnt really an ice age at all, but it was a cool period that ended in the 1880s.
If that starting point is cooler than normal, and today is warmer than normal, how much fluctuation are we talking about?
If we need to save the planet, we need to understand how hot weve boiled it so far, professor.
The Ichthyosaur was not a lizard fish, but who cares. It went the way of the pleasiosaur, and other extinct denizens of the sea. Our planet chews em up and spits em out.Why's you switch out Gilligan? Since the baseline is a running average, what's above it and below it will change. So what's minus and what's plus in your subsequent post only tells you which way the baseline is trending. But you're right that the absolute amplitude between the high and low points over a time period is indeed a fixed fluctuation value that you can look at. The magnitude of metemperature change has certainly been larger over earth history. But the rate of change right now is what draws attention. Fastest rate of change over the entire Holocene according to the models and proxies. JMO we'll ride out whatever may or may not be in store and muddle along. It's what we do. But if we keep talking like this Iz is going to come charging in here with alarm this and alarm that like there's a herd of badgers digging up his kalo patch and trying to scratch their way into his chicken coop. So we need to find a way to cast a long cold eye. If you're the type to mull over a good paper, consider the last stand of the ichthyosaurs about a 100 million years ago. You can read all about it here, and its a freebie (PMC link upper right).

Increasingly genetically bottlenecked, climate changing faster than they could adapt, what's a lizard-like fish to do? Old Charlie stole the handle and the train it won't stop going no way to slow down.
Point is, co2 is a bit player in the overall picture, and anthropogenic co2 is a prop somewhere on the set, but not on the main scientific stage.
Anthropogenic co2 does, however, take top billing in the political science category.
But if we keep talking like this Iz is going to come charging in here with alarm this and alarm that like there's a herd of badgers digging up his kalo patch and trying to scratch their way into his chicken coop.
Your mom.What University did you get your PhD from?
Your mom.
Rebut espoola's statement, if you can.What University did you get your PhD from?
And you have about as much expertise in Science as her...
Maybe someone should just ask what University did you get your Phd. from?
You prefer to be told what to think.I'm not claiming Scientific knowledge. Unlike the right, that prefers notions that feel right, I prefer to listen to what experts have to say.

How much did it cost to put those ten letters after your name?Ironic you say that about me, in light of Climate Science deniers being wholly funded by fossil fuel interests...
Feels right?
What are you talking about?
Tell us Wez, what are going to do today to stop climate change?
Ignoramus.I'm not claiming Scientific knowledge. Unlike the right, that prefers notions that feel right, I prefer to listen to what experts have to say.

Id ask for my money back.
