Besides shifting weather patterns worldwide, that extra El Niño-fueled ocean warmth is supercharging the Earth’s temperature, which could help make 2014 the warmest year since human records have been kept, and probably for much longer.

You sir, are a glittering jewel of colossal ignorance. But, really, it's worse than that. You're a pawn in a game you don't even know is being played. Worse than ignorant (some ignorant people want to learn and evolve) - you make people dumber by merely engaging with you.

Don't sell the climate changers short.
Once they fail in convincing people about the CO2 bullshite, they will start claiming we need to "control" the Sun.
Of course, this is assuming that they will finally tell the world what the "correct" global temperature is supposed to be.
Right, its all a big conspiracy. You need more tin foil, dude.

I'm just curious though, since you are smarter than the scientists, can you explain how it is that less Sun = higher temperature? Seems odd.

I'd be more willing to pay taxes to fund warp drive research so we can escape this planet than give my money to climate change research.

No, seriously, I wanna know. Please tell me the last time Earth warmed ~1 Centigrade in 3 seconds (or - in the real people time the rest of us use - 150 years) - or at least point to a time in the past where the variability of temperature over longer periods implies variability of 1 degree over 3 seconds (150 years for the rest of us).
Thanks.

Right. Now that we have computers, all the data we collected before computers is no good anymore. Because it just sucks. its old and yucky.

If the reconstructed data is to be believed, the Medieval Warm Period had an equivalent temperature change.

Answer: from 850 to 1,000 AD.
Next....

ofcourse you are.
1. there is data that the Earth is actually cooling. ...not raising 1 degree like you keep posting.
2. what if the Earth temp did rise 1 degree....how do you know that we're not still below the normal temp of the Earth?

I never even suggested that - but to say that our temperature resolution can be compared apples-to-apples with data collected and recorded in the late 19th century is LUDICROUS. Doing so with reconstructed data is more so. 2 or 3 degrees is more obviously a difference, but a few tenths is very close to within the margin of error at this point.
Not old and yucky, but not directly comparable to modern techniques and modern data collection/error correction.

Who and what instrument did they use to measure carbon dioxide 800,000 years ago? Please elaborate. From what I understand we haven't been recording this kind of data but for about the last 100-150 years.

These posts are why you guys get cast in a terrible light. You can read the carbon in the atmosphere for millions of years by ice core sampling permafrost.

Carbon cap & trade has already been proposed by multiple people
Does this really solve the problem? How do we put a carbon cap and trade on china, india, or other developing nations? Do you really think they give a shite about this? Why do you want to create more taxes and futher slow a stalling economy?
What about giving tax credit and tax breaks to companies that choose to reduce carbon emmisions on their own? Does that fit you agenda?
