Global Warmalist alarmists get a massive beat down from... SCIENCE!

So, what happens if you are heavily invested in a pet theory, you've declared that THE DEBATE IS OVER! and practically shut down new avenues of scientific research, fought for and almost succeeded in CHANGEing the economic makeup of the entire WORLD, what do you do when new SCIENCE! data surfaces that punches holes in your carefully groomed AGW theory? Watch carefully for the next several weeks. We're getting ready to find out.

I predict that alarmists will find some way to discount this new data, no matter how well-grounded and repeatable it might be. There's too much at stake for (Disciples of) Al Gore to give up any ground whatsoever...even to... SCIENCE!. From Forbes...

NASA satellite data from the years 2000 through 2011 show the Earth's atmosphere is allowing far more heat to be released into space than alarmist computer models have predicted, reports a new study in the peer-reviewed science journal Remote Sensing. The study indicates far less future global warming will occur than United Nations computer models have predicted, and supports prior studies indicating increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide trap far less heat than alarmists have claimed.

Study co-author Dr. Roy Spencer, a principal research scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and U.S. Science Team Leader for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer flying on NASA's Aqua satellite, reports that real-world data from NASA's Terra satellite contradict multiple assumptions fed into alarmist computer models.

Oh, my. What's happening is, as the Earth warms up, it's venting to space, much more than the alarmist's models predicted. So, the warmer we get, the more venting of excess heat to space occurs. It's as if a 'pressure relief valve' opens, and things stabilize.

In addition to finding that far less heat is being trapped than alarmist computer models have predicted, the NASA satellite data show the atmosphere begins shedding heat into space long before United Nations computer models predicted.

Heh. I'm wondering if these original computer models were programmed to be purposefully alarmist.

The new findings are extremely important and should dramatically alter the global warming debate.

Justwaitagoddmanminute! The Al Gore hasn't yet Spoken; He has not passed on allowing this new data to be admitted to His Vast Plan (to screw the World). Nice data you've got there, NASA. Shame if something happens to it...

In short, the central premise of alarmist global warming theory is that carbon dioxide emissions should be directly and indirectly trapping a certain amount of heat in the earth's atmosphere and preventing it from escaping into space. Real-world measurements, however, show far less heat is being trapped in the earth's atmosphere than the alarmist computer models predict, and far more heat is escaping into space than the alarmist computer models predict.

Damned pesky data, messing up our perfectly adjusted computer models. Is it time, once again, to pull a HIDE THE DECLINE! trick? Where's Michael Mann when you need him?




What a damned shame for those who've fallen for the religion of AGW.
