Yes, the climate changes, and it does so far more drastically when humans dump billions of years worth of sequestered greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere over a couple hundred years.



The question is why you've foolishly posted an entire meme about weather on specific days when the hottest -YEARS- on record are all in the past 20 or so.

20,000 years ago New York City was covered with 15,000 feet of ice. That is proven settled science. Glacial striations on boulders in New York City Central Park are evidence. Are you saying that it all melted because caveman we’re driving Hummers?

You're talking about changes that take place over thousands of years due to changes in the amount of energy being received from the sun - our reckless release of sequestered carbon is causing glaciers to melt on a timeline of decades with no such increase in external energy.

Beer and soft drinks are the source of CO2. Pepsi and Coke went global in the 1970’s, right when CO2 is supposed to begin increasing.

The revolution that led to this was less Pepsi and more Industrial.

That headline had the quotes in all the wrong places - here, I'll fix it:



Trillions Spent on Climate Change 'Based on Faulty Temperature Data', 'Experts' Say.



The problem exists, and the only 'scientists' rejecting the overwhelming consensus are being paid by petroleum companies to do so.

Hottest years MEASURED. With thermometers. Have occurred in this decade. 



Two  decades ago, after peeking in 1999, temperatures dripped to levels  not seen since the Return-to-the-Ice-Age 1970s,  necessitating  "Global Warming" to be redubbed "Climate Change" because the global warming trend that was supposed to have me growing mango trees in my backyard here in the Bronx by 2014 had ended in the 2000s.

Temperatures didn't peak in 1999 - the global average was higher in 2000, 2001, and at least 14 other years since, and only once since 1999 has there been more than a single year decline in that global average.



'Global warming' became 'climate change' because the purposely obtuse couldn't understand how the climate could be warming, and they could still get snow (or not grow mango trees apparently).

My mistake, temps peaked in 1998, not 1999.



"Climate Change" was thus adopted to accommodate the false-alarmist pseudo-science spouting  mutant clown show celebs as Global Warming took a sabbatical for a few years round then. Did I mentioned we had the coldest winters since the 1970s back then?



That's the beauty of it - the climate on Earth has been changing since it was part of a big ball of hot gas and dust 5 billion years ago. Can't  dispute that.

Global average temperature was .4 degrees lower in 1998 than in 1999.



The climate has been changing, but it's changing exponentially faster now due to the fact we've burnt through billions of years worth of sequestered carbon, packing the atmosphere with greenhouse gasses, and we're seeing it in the form of increasingly erratic weather patterns and oceans encroaching on coastal lands as the ice caps melt.

Yes and yes - global average was 52.9 in 1998 and 53.3 in 1999, and it's been 13 years of increasingly erratic weather patterns since we've seen an average that low.

So what I said then?

So, why are you choosing Michigan as your point? 



And then why are you only selecting 2 points of data? 



Why would you expect to be able to show a trend just on 2 points of data?

DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH; DO NOT JUST BLINDLY ACCEPT WHAT THENEWS MEDIA OR UNIVERSITY RESEARCHERS TELL YOU; MICHIGAN 'RECORDED' TEMPERATURE HISTORY HOTTEST DAY EVER:112 DEGREES IN 1936. COLDEST DAY EVER: -61 DEGREES IN 1934. ALMOST BACK TO BACK YEARS OF HOTTEST AND COLDEST EVER RECORDED...90 YEARS AGO! 90, NOT 20. NOT 10. 90 YEARS AGO. Bruce C Linder; The last 100 degree day in Michigan was 1995. 29 years ago. 10,000 years ago Michigan was a glacier. The climate changes. That is what it does.
