Glacier Silence
In 2019 Glacier National Park (GNP) quietly removed numerous posters claiming that all glaciers would be gone by 2020. They used our tax monies to create those fake signs (with great public attention) and then removed them -- quietly. And now something else has gone quiet. They would annually post a glacier report listing the status of each mapped glacier. They stopped producing those valuable reports 7 years ago. In essence, they are denying tax payers important glacier status information. For those who attend the Weather Club, you already know that surface and satellite temperature data have shown a slow cooling trend for the last 7 years -- the same years GNP has been silent. We should demand better value for tax monies.

Dunno. Some of that "science" resembles the Wicked Witch of the West consulting her crystal ball.

I used to attend the Weather Club but stopped when it became (or I realized that it was) a platform for only a particular point of view.

- If the last 7 year shows cooling and there is no doubt it will show warming again then it certainly isn't a data point for your argument. - Yes, it is curious, but it does not show a conspiracy. There could be other explanations like a lack of budget to provide the data, a lack of interest, or a suspicion that the data is being intentionally misinterpreted and misused. It is also possible that it could be an attempt to hide the data but asserting only that possibility seems very much like confirmation bias. - Why is cooling happening yet CO2 is skyrocketing? By your own admission and, I believe previous assertions, climate change cannot be measured over a small number of years. One cold winter is not an indication of an impending ice age any more than one hot summer is an indication of global climate change. Small cycles are not significant.

Many years ago, Carl Sagan demonstrated the difference between climate and weather. A man walking slowly and steadily up a beach represented the climate, while his dog , represented weather, ran ahead of him then behind in a random pattern. Weather can be local and seem erratic and change rapidly over short periods of time. Climate is more stable and changes over longer time periods.
Some are using short term weather phenomena to debunk climate change. Cherry picking weather data to disprove climate change is misusing and misrepresenting the reality of what has been going on with climate change globally. |
