re: Study: Temp adjustments account for ‘Nearly all of Warming’ In climate data

I've read that the oceans are absorbing much of the rising warmth rather than the atmosphere. When the ocean's temp rise becomes "saturated", then we'll start to see more effects.
Is any of that true or not? I don't know.
I do believe we should be somewhat vigilant in protecting our planet, and it pisses me off that this has become so politicized by the left. Partisan bickering and falsehoods has really fricked us in putting together an action plan. All we will do now is argue over this.

I rarely follow this climate debate, so I don't have much to add. I am, however, curious as to why the chart you posted stopped in 2010. It seems that each line got to 2005, then began to trend downward over the next five years.
If I made the same graph today it would look substantially identical and still prove my point, since the new adjustments to HadSST / ERSST are very minor compared to the major pre-1940s adjustments.

I haven't read the report yet, but didn't the models fail because of the x3 multiplier or something? The x3 multiplier didn't pan out because, as in my above post, the oceans absorbed more heat than previously predicted.
I know enough to be stupid on the subject.

I'm frankly out of my depth on this topic and I know it. It's a boundary you might want to learn. Free advice. Worth what you pay for it.

Correct, however it no longer matters. the cat is out of the bag and liberals have adopted the bullshite. They will never walk it back they will just create more crap to prop up their straw-man argument.
This is a much bigger scale of the Rolling Stone UVA-Rape story.
Once it was proven false they launched into the "Just because it wasn't true doesn't mean it can't happen and Colleges have a rape culture." BS.
Trust me these loons double down on stupid when proven wrong.

Global Warming was contrived to create a market for the selling, buying and trading of Carbon Credits. (Catholic playbook - selling of Indulgences)
The Carbon Credit market failed soon after being launched and the new data indicated a cooling trend leading to Global Warming becoming Climate Change. Baseless, Climate Change has to morph into a political battle to stay alive. It's now on it's death bed and will be gone within a decade.
Does the planet cool and warm ? Yes, of course it does. Just like the sun, hmmm. Is 200 or so years an adequate data sample to gauge the long term trends of a planet millions/billions of years old ?
Uh, no.

But why set the base period for so long, when the least amount of variation appears to be between 1955-1980? Are they trying to get a period that is closest to 0?
I'm just curious why you posted this graph that only dates back to the 1870s (I'm assume they didn't have accurate measures before then), and why the reference points are set where they are, as opposed to beginning in 1870.
Posted on 7/6/17 at 12:25 pm to Jyrdis
For the purposes of graphing differences in temperature the choice of baseline is mostly arbitrary, the important thing is that you keep it constant between both datasets. (There's a lot of bad skeptic memes out there where someone copied and pasted lines from different graphs using different baselines.) You'd see the same pre-WW2 divergence even if the baseline was 1870-1920 or something, everything would just be shifted upward from zero on the Y-axis.

My biggest issue with this whole debate is that science was politicized.
Science should be facts and real, honest data. It should be immune to politics. Don't get me wrong, if the data suggests a climate change and it was caused by humans, then I'd fully expect the plan of attack to fix it to be highly politicized and controversial. But not the study itself. Disheartening and very dangerous.

I believe the biggest step forward is simply carbon sequestration. Why Leo DiCaprio and all his cronies aren't building carbon sequestration facilities is beyond me. It's not about fixing the issue, it's about punishing the other side.

Ok. Fair enough. I'd have to look more into it before I made a firm opinion one way or the other.

Probably because they are busy putting out more CO2 yearly than this entire site combined

Lets stick with my original "Doom and gloom". Are you claiming there were none made? If the predictions were not "dire"...why worry about it?
