NOAA Claims December 2014 Was The HOTTEST On Record

[Kristy]

Climatologist Dr. Judith Curry, former chair of the school of earth and atmospheric sciences at Georgia Institute of Technology, had this to say about 2014 being the ‘hottest year’: “The ‘warmest year’ is noticeably missing in the satellite data sets of lower atmospheric temperatures,” Curry wrote on January 16. Curry predicts another decade of a global warming ‘pause’ or ‘hiatus’. “I’ve made my projection – global surface temperatures will remain mostly flat for at least another decade,” she explained

“With 2014 essentially tied with 2005 and 2010 for hottest year, this implies that there has been essentially no trend in warming over the past decade. This ‘almost’ record year does not help the growing discrepancy between the climate model projections and the surface temperature observations,” Curry told the Washington Post.

Makes one wonder who paid for this research. Certainly no grant money from any major oil corporations and/or private foundations.

kkkristy, what is the downforce coefficient for drag in a US regulated 'passenger vehicle'?

I've posted this before but it's a great reminder that we have cost effective technologies that could cut our dependence on fossil fuels right now and have had them for years!

Here in Michigan Stan and Iris Ovshinsky have developed a hydrogen fuel cell that's cheap and can be retrofitted to gas cars. They've also developed a solar panel that looks like a roof shingle and instead of using shingles on your roof you could use those! New roof that powers your house!

Yet somehow these are evil commie hippie socialist liberal bad things or liberalcommiehippieismists bad things.

The base Tesla Model S goes 208 miles on a charge. That would be more than a week's worth of driving for me for around six bucks and 25 cents. It would be great to have a full electric for a daily beater and then a gas car for fun.

No idea, asscrack. The question you should be asking is how many times can you fail at getting your G.E.D.

Want to get back on topic? The topic is hottest year ever and the significance of hundredths of a degree.

So when you're talking out of your ass on cars and mpg and all the other shit apparently you and only you know about, please explain the differences between a passenger car tire and an Indycar tire.

The turns at Indy are banked but only slightly compared to NASCAR. Is there a difference between pavement and tire compounds affecting tire wear on government road grades?

or are you just talking out of your wiki gogglee ass?

What I'm 'disputing" is the claim of hottest year. The story is based on immeasurable temperature differences that are based on hundredths of a degree temperature differences.

The scientists said the temp for 2014 was 0.07F higher than records set in 2010 and 2005.

A temperature record based on hundredths of a degree difference means that the global warming pause is continuing.

KK, I didn't leap to dirty air, water, or soil, or pumping oil. If you want a conversation about any of these topics, you know I'll get with you in another thread.

So you want to play semantics to justify polluting the earth, bully for you

OK, 2014 is tied for the hottest year on record so it's OK to keep polluting the earth, block all renewable energy, and drill baby drill!

Keep giving those terrorists money from oil because, because, because...........OBAMA!

The only way this could get better is if we took away our National Park system and can block over 100 years of presidential mandates to drill baby drill, keep fracking baby!

Oh wait

H.R.330 - To amend title 54, United States Code, to provide for congressional approval of national monuments and restrictions on the use of national monuments, to establish requirements for declaration of marine national monuments, and for other purposes.

Yep, so since it's tied we can keep polluting

Nothing to see here, move along folks............pollution isn't real, it's a tie so therefore it's a lie

This isn't about pollution or the half Kenyan prez.

Facts aren't semantics. .07 temperature on most charts would be considered noise or something to round off.

Sorry about HR 330 or The Distinguished Flying Cross National Memorial Act. What the heck does a green job add to the Distinguished Flying Cross National Memorial?

So when you're talking out of your ass on cars and mpg and all the other shit apparently you and only you know about, please explain the differences between a passenger car tire and an Indycar tire.

Um, the Indycar tire is obviously a socialist tire.

The turns at Indy are banked but only slightly compared to NASCAR. Is there a difference between pavement and tire compounds affecting tire wear on government road grades?

Government road grades? Oh dear, sounds like another Obama socialist plot

or are you just talking out of your wiki gogglee ass?

Not sure since I have no idea what in the fuck you're on about.

[kwame k]

So it's technically hotter by .07 but because that number isn't high enough for you therefore it's a lie by Obama to rule the world

Tell the truth......if Obama came out and said shoving a red hot knife up your ass is a bad thing, you'd find every reason on earth to defend your right to shove a hot knife up your ass!

[kwame k]

And this has everything to do with pollution and renewable energy because if you dispute that the earth is warming then you dispute that pollution is a bad thing and you support terrorism through oil dollars!

Why do you hate America so much, Jack

[jacksmar]

Um, the Indycar tire is obviously a socialist tire.
Government road grades? Oh dear, sounds like another Obama socialist plot

So, are you familiar with foot pounds? Let me wise up your ignorant pot smoking dumbass. Everything around you right now as we type, 98% of everything in your immediate eyesite, line of site: touch a truck. A semi tractor trailer hauler. How any foot pounds of energy does it takes to move 40 tons a distance of 100 feet?

Tire technology as we know it was developed at Indy. Braking technology as we know it was developed at Indy. Turbo technology as we know it was developed at Indy. And safety, or chassis technology as we know it was developed at Indy.

A few here are old enough to remember Body by Fisher.

Your topic: The hottest year ever and the significance of hundredths of a degree.

I really, really hope you have big fucking tits..................................

[Kristy]

I still have no fucking idea why "foot pounds" has to do with climate change. I also highly doubt you know basic mechanical physics of any automobile without Goggling an warped argument and I also highly doubt all transportation technology is restricted to some shitty race car track. Besides, dumbass, you're talking more about power-to-weight ratio(s).

Go back to studying where the verb is in the sentence "See asscrack run."
