MESSAGE FOR ALBERTA OILSANDS BASHERS WHO KNOW SWEET TWEET ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING BUT LISTEN TO AL GORE, NEIL YOUNG ANS SUZUKI WHO ARE TRYING TO MAKE FOOLS OF ALL OF US AND ARE DENIGRATING THE ENERGY SYSTEMS WE PROVIDE FOR THEM TO SPEW OUT THEIR RHETORIC AND FLY ALL OVER THE WORLD SPEWING OUT CO2 MCKITRICK PAPER: NO [GLOBAL] WARMING FOR 19 YEARS [Excerpt] Fail. Five more years of no warming followed. Professor Ross McKitrick says in a new paper that the warming pause has now lasted an astonishing 19 years at the surface and 16-26 years in the lower troposphere: The Guardian in 2009 predicted five years of rapid warming: The world faces record-breaking temperatures as the suns activity increases, leading the planet to heat up significantly faster than scientists had predicted for the next five years, according to a study. The hottest year on record was 1998, and the relatively cool years since have led to some global warming sceptics claiming that temperatures have leveled off or started to decline. But new research firmly rejects that argument. The research, to be published in Geophysical Research Letters, was carried out by Judith Lean, of the US Naval Research Laboratory, and David Rind, of Nasas Goddard Institute for Space Studies. The IPCC has drawn attention to an apparent leveling-off of globally-averaged temperatures over the past 15 years or so.... Here, I propose a method for estimating the duration of the hiatus that is robust to unknown forms of heteroskedasticity and auto-correlation (HAC) in the temperature series and to cherry-picking of endpoints... Application of the method shows that there is now a trendless interval of 19 years duration at the end of the HadCRUT4 surface temperature series, and of 16 - 26 years in the lower troposphere. Use of a simple AR1 trend model suggests a shorter hiatus of 14 - 20 years but is likely unreliable... While the HadCRUT4 record clearly shows numerous pauses and dips amid the overall upward trend, the ending hiatus is of particular note because climate models project continuing warming over the period. Since 1990, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rose from 354 ppm to just under 400 ppm, a 13% increase... In the surface data we compute a hiatus length of 19 years, and in the lower tropospheric data we compute a hiatus length of 16 years in the UAH series and 26 years in the RSS series. blogs.news.au/heraldsun/andrewbolt/index.php/heraldsun/comments/no_warming_for_19_years [TBC: As we have noted, the increasingly discredited theory of man-caused global warming has become a religion for many. As another commentator notes, Man-made global warming is an earth-worshiping religion. The essential feature of any religion is that its pronouncements are to be accepted on faith, as opposed to hard evidence. And as with most religions, it is susceptible to the earthly temptations of money, power, politics, arrogance, and deceit.americanthinker/2012/04/the_religion_of_global_warming.html#ixzz3G2I8H6jr]
