You probably saw this report, that some climate damage is already irreversible.<\/a><\/p>\n

Many damaging effects of climate change are already basically irreversible, researchers declared Monday, warning that even if carbon emissions can somehow be halted temperatures around the globe will remain high until at least the year 3000.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now, let’s get real here.\u00a0 The year 3000?!?!?!\u00a0 Holy Ozone, Batman.<\/p>\n

This is so risible that it should be a fake newscast at The Onion<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 Do these guys know NOTHING about the large temperature variations of the last 2000 years, when it’s been both warmer and colder than now?\u00a0 Do they really think they can account for the very large natural variations in predicting the tiny input humans have had into the climate?<\/p>\n

This news report masquerading as news is actually a Public Relations Release of the IPCC (International Panel on Climate Change), surely the most politically motivated and thoroughly bent UN endeavor since the UN Oil for Food Program.\u00a0 Of course, the AP continues its “see no skeptics<\/a>, hear no skeptics, speak no skepticism” approach to reporting on the matter.\u00a0 It’s so common that its hardly noticeable anymore…<\/p>\n

But this really is extreme.\u00a0 These clowns (who else would make 1000 year predictions on climate, except that it will probably be different, who know exactly how?) are really funny, except when they’re dangerous.<\/p>\n

See yesterday’s post, and ponder the pontifications of perfidious politicians pretending to do objective science.<\/p>\n

If you have the patience, here are some real scientists actually debating the point:<\/p>\n
