I would think that the longstanding and prestigious organizations I listed carry some cachet in regards to their conclusions about the climate. If you have more and BETTER sources than those I listed, please let us know. Thanks. Ron

Anthony Watts is a former television meteorologist best known as the founder and editor of the blog Watts Up With That (WUWT), which primarily publishes articles attacking climate change science and spreading misinformation. [1] What's odd Danny, is that you claim to believe in human induced climate change, yet you post like a denier. So, just like the page you posted to, "what's up with that"? Ron

There is a long field between knowing science and falling fir the bs you spout I am sorry to tell you. I can think the climate change and man can cause it and not believe in lock step doomsday scenarios. Again it is simply use as a method to push ideology that can't win at the ballot box.

Ron, out of all those groups you listed, how many actually measured the climate condition from lets say a thousand or ten thousand years ago? Or do they just use the numbers they get from a small handful of people? To me that is what’s so scary about science; reports that use numbers from other reports are really useless.

Some do share numbers and that’s why I’m ASKING do they all do that?
But no, I would never vote for a scientist. Tom

I was not talking about “continental drift” nor “seasons” both of which are Ed’s terms and misinterpretations attributed to me, none of which I said.
Because of the Earth’s orbit and wobble, the continents are ever-moving in relation to the Sun, as are all things of Earth. As a result, we have an ever-changing climate, wherein we have ever-changing ice ages and warm ages. Therefore, then, after an ice age for a long time, we get Global Warming. –which is an altogether different thing than continental drift, which is movements in relation to each other, due to the inner heat of the Earth but that does also have its effects. The issue anyhow before us is if mankind is trapping the Sun's heat and causing catastrophic greenhouse effects from burning too much stuff. “Catastrophic greenhouse effects” from burning too much stuff are not now merely global warming but 101 other things according to the believers. If the Earth went into an ice tomorrow then the believers would call it climate change and blame mankind for it.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Ron, if you are going to answer a question with a question then kindly do so on the answer a question with a question thread.

One year in the 1800's was referred to as "The Year Without A Summer" the general weather being so bad. It wasn't until years later that someone put two and two together and realize that that local problem was actually caused by the eruption of Krakatoa (which apparently is WEST of Java, not East. I don't know why they got it wrong.) The thing being, that kind of interference is short lived and passes, our interference with the atmosphere is on going .

And that reports that might use numbers from other reports are "useless"? If that's true, then our whole education system, which is primarily based on the reporting of facts obtained and handed down from other "reports", is useless. Does that make sense? And by the way, science is a process. It's not a menu of static, never-changing facts. I'm not sure you fully understand this important point. Ron

And THAT has been my only motivation for my posts. I hope that clears things up. Ron
