It's interesting that we can't get an accurate prediction of what the weather is going to be 3 days from now yet there are people who believe that our weather can be accurately predicted 10 years from now.
I wonder what excuse Al gore will be using 10 years from now when his movie is an example of how the Left was able to convince so many "intelligent people" that he had a clue.

It's sorta true, but called Global dimming. It's slowing down global warming...

It is anthropogenic solar chaos (ASC). As we find it is the sun that has the greatest impact on climate, not CO2, we need to blame man for changes in the sun. And to not be held accountable on to predictions, call it chaos - up, down or sideways, just as we predicted.
Now we just need an theory on how human thoughts control the sun. Then we can cap and trade in thoughts. We can the tax, control and regulate thoughts - the ultimate goal.

Jimbo, don't forget that the repugliicans also claimed to be a party intent on reducing spending by government, but also go out of their way to increase government spending vastly. No lie that.

Oh, and it's really quite simple whether you call it global warming, or climate change, it all leads to the same result when mankind pumps billions of tons of extra carbon dioxide into the atmosphere: a global increase in temperature. This is true regardless of whether the temperature has gone up or down in your redneck of the woods.

The once "Global Warming" now wants climate change. Just like Left Wing liberals changed their name to "progressive". Can a snake change its stripes? NOPE, it is still a snake no mater what it's name is. Global warming crowd was taken for MILLIONS of dollars. They can't admit they were being played for fools.

Y'know, with this and the Astronaut's belief, and how cold the weather was in NY this summer, I might believe it.

We used to call that 'weather'. Now if it gets cold, it's man made. If it's hotter...man made. I don't suppose solar activity could have anything to do with it...nah, must be progress. "I’ll trust the scientists thanks." Brilliant!

It tends to be the obstinate and simple who cling terminology as a rebuttal for climate change.

In the 70s is was being refered to a the greenhouse effect, then global warmning when the phrase climate change is closest to accurate.

Didn't styop your twice unelected president from sticking his fingers in his ears and hu8mming.

He'd no doubt roll out his entirely faux country boy schtick and agree that no one knows the land like a good ol' US Farmer.

I'll trust the scientists thanks.

exactly, it's about global climate change. Some places get cooler, some warmer, some wetter, some drier and extreme weather events increase in frequency and severity.
There is no question.

We need to get rid of the term "global warming". It confuses dumb people. Why don't more people use "climate change"? It makes more sense, anyway. We've never killed a planet before, so how do we even know how "global warming" should happen? We don't know if there are years in the beginning that are colder, or if it's a steady progression towards more heat, or whether all parts of the planet even get hotter in the first few years.

I never understood how Farmer's Almanac worked.
