Rumble in the Climate Jungle
[Comment by Sashka] First of all, there is no climate consensus beyond the fact that CO2 will warm the atmosphere to some extent.
C3: Evidence of Prior Unprecedented Global Warming Discovered In Scotland, Medieval Period Low CO2 Levels Likely At Fault
It is well formulated by the the IPCC climate doomsday hive-mind that only CO2 can produce unprecedented global warming, plus any other extreme climate change - thus, the low Medieval CO2 levels must be the actual cause of Scottish temperatures being 1 degree higher than modern temperatures

You do realize @fttheworld that US midwestern drought has decreased in past 50+ years? That is not skepticism, that's IPCC @johnpmcdermott

@RogerPielkeJr @fttheworld @johnpmcdermott FDA or SEC would have a field day w/claims based upon your data analysis. Big time fines.

[Revkin] There’s a good @MichaelEMann piece on Jim Hansen’s climate findings, except repeated references to a greenhouse push behind “much of” recent extreme weather don’t mesh with current science on climate causality. Heat and heavy rains, yes; other events, no clarity.

This line in particular — “Much of the extreme weather we have witnessed in recent years almost certainly contains a human-induced component” — echoes points of disagreement between Mann and me during last year’s devastating tornado season.
