That's one helluva old hoax!

"Time has proven that even 22 years ago climate scientists understood the dynamics behind global warming well enough to accurately predict warming, says an analysis that compares predictions in 1990 with 20 years of temperature records.
After an adjustment to account for natural fluctuations, the predictions and the observed increases matched up, the current research found."

Well . . .yeah.

CFCs and all that.

 

i blame long links.

 

I blame soccer.

 

touche.

 

thank god.

 

Did you read the whole article? It's hysterical.

The results didn't actually match up, so they skewed them! Where's Nate Silver to call "bull shit" when we need him:

In percentage terms, a 0.63 degrees F increase isn't really that close to a 1 degree F increase.

10 years is also an incredibly short period to look at.

Then there's the weather stations these studies rely on. They're not owned, managed, or maintained by the the people running the study. The study relies on self reporting.

And, besides the fact that there's no "control" to compare the results to -- what would be the planets temperature if human existence ended in 1990 -- there are all kinds of flaws with the stations themselves:

 

fox news and the guardian. quality work, YF. quality work.

 

So tonight's game means nothing? If I don't die on the 21st, it doesn't matter? Because the world is warming so fast that I will burn to a crisp three days later?

 

naw. read the title. it's a hoax. just like evolution.

 

Do you deny what the articles claim?

There are problems with the weather stations. That's a fact.

 

dunno, dude. i don't read or listen to shit that comes from fox, a proven lying fucking "news" outlet.
