To those who don't believe AGW is real

Did you click on the Link

Of course not! What a stupid question.

[DimPrawn]

Let me ask you a question. Do you think UK house prices have stopped rising in the long term?

Jeez its like a special needs class

No, you have gone from science to religion. Now there is no proof of AGW, but we must now act on faith that in the long term man will alter the climate.

Do you believe Jesus will return and save us?

Are you Chico?

Cos you are starting to sound like hime.

Yes, well that would explain why you and FickFitz are right in your element. Try and answer some of the contradictions implicit in some of your contentions and stop ducking the issue. You are beginning to sound like Hazel Blears, only with less facial hair.
You consistently attempt to maintain that man-made CO2 is a major driver of GW yet when asked to explain just why there has been no discernible rise in global temperature over the last 10 years when these emissions have scaled new heights, you put up a variety of puerile smokescreens. Answer the question man, if it is not too difficult for you to process. Phone a friend FFS, just stop spinning!!

Huh? I'm beginning to think you really are a thicko now.

In any complex system long term trends can be masked by local peturbations. Basic engineering theory. You expect house prices to keep rising in the long term because there are deep underlying reasons for that trend even though there are local peturbations e.g. credit crunch or recession that temporarily mask the trend. By looking at just a 10 year period in global temp (even if your data are correct which is a moot point) you are equivalent to a Martian who lands in England in 2007 and concludes that UK prices always fall.

Every single graph in this thread (including those presented by some sceptics) shows a long term upward trend in temperature. Even the more intelligent sceptics accept that.

It's called separating the signal from the noise. That requires a modicum of intelligence unfortunately.

I'm not wasting my time with this now.

You clearly don't even grasp the basis of AGW, which was a recent upswing in temps (not long term background natural climate change) due to rapid release of CO2 over the last 50 years.

However, the last 10 years has proven there is not large upswing, it was just noise in a complex system.

On that basis, I'm out.

On that basis, I'm out.

off to lick my wounds having been well and truly put back in my gimp box.

Yes yes, but not everyone contends that the upward trend is entirely or even largely dependant upon man-made CO2. Many sceptics were reluctant to believe that even before the temperature trends of the last decade added considerable weight to their argument. That connection is pivotal in the tax-raising mindset yet it has seriously flawed foundations. You appear to have swallowed this link hook, line, and sinker. I suppose you prefer things to be simple, that way you don't have to risk perforating the miniscule and, frankly, flimsy envelope that your powers of reasoning are constrained within. Do yourself a favour and leave this debate to the big boys.
