Default Canada Free Press - The World Is Cooling

Quote:
The new Jason oceanographic satellite, an undated and more accurate version of the Poseidon satellite that has monitored the oceans since 1992, says the “persistent Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) has turned into its cool phase, telling us to expect moderately lower global temperatures until 2030,” reports the Canada Free Press.

Noting the Jason satellite is run by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the newspaper says the PDO is driven by the “huge Aleutian low in the Arctic — but we don’t know what controls the Aleutian low. Nonetheless, 22˝-year double sunspot cycles have been identified in South African rain, Indian monsoons, Australian droughts and rains in the United States’ far Southwest … arguing that the sun, not CO2, controls the earth’s temperatures.”

In another finding, the Antarctic deep sea is growing colder, stimulating the circulation of the oceanic water masses, reports Science Daily. Directed by Dr. Eberhard Fahrbach, oceanographer at the Alfred Wegener Institute, 58 scientists from 10 countries aboard the research vessel Polarstern in the Southern Ocean from Feb. 6 to April 16, studying ocean currents, temperature, salt content and trace substances in Antarctic seawater, made this finding.

Last month we pointed out that thus far in the 21st century, there has been no recorded global warming, raising the possibility that the world is entering a period of global cooling.

Carteret County News-Times
So first we're cooling, then we're warming, cooling, warming, back to cooling.......

Hence why I remain a skeptic. How anyone can say they are 100% certain it is one way or the other is beyond me.

Just another example of people that have no clue evaluating science.

Post Hoc ergo propter hoc.

This is nothing more then an ill informed misrepresentation of some out of context data.

The cooling is temporary, and the scientists already knew about it. It happens periodically every so often. It doesn't refute anthropogenic warming. This merely cancels it out temporarily for a few years. In a way, it's a type of reprieve, not a sign that we can all go back to normal as if everything's ok. As soon as the natural phenomenon goes away, so will the canceling effect of natural cooling.

Bogus article. The BBC pointed out that sun activity has waned since the 80s. People who mischaracterize the issue just to pretend like their market god is infallible should be taken to court for purposely lying.

You do realize the BBC is a propaganda machine for the British Government right?

BBC and Al Jazeera are more reliable than corporate news, let alone some pipsqueak from the Carolina Coast.

It's amusing to hear you call the BBC a propaganda machine when the BBC showed the "Great Global Warming Swindle" despite it being full of lies and misinformation.

Next I'll be told water has been introduced into the earth cycle.

I like the BBC. But I also like NPR and Pravda =D

The BBC is hardly a propaganda arm of the British Government. That's just an unsubstantiated assertion.

Al Gore blames the current hurricane activity on "global warming". What an idiot.

Gee golly. If he says so, then I guess it must be true!
