Bad news for the climate change crowd here.  &#8220;Researchers at Duke&#8230;&#8221; This is the Duke lacrosse case Duke.  This is the Duke where all those faculty signed on believing that the lacrosse team had mistreated the dancer.  I mean, Duke is a liberal institution from top to bottom.  &#8220;Researchers at Duke University say global warming is not progressing as fast as it would under the most severe scenarios outlined by the UN\u2019s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the computer models are not correct.<\/p>\n<p>Global warming isn\u2019t happening anywhere near like the models said that it would be happening by now.  &#8220;Looking at 1,000 years of temperature records, researchers found that natural variability in surface temperatures over the course of just a decade can account for increases and dips in warming rates.&#8221; Now, for those of you in Rio Linda, &#8220;natural variability in surface temperatures&#8221; means it gets hot now and cold then.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_105103\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushGlobalWarming5PIX.jpg\"\/><BR\/>It\u2019s natural. You know, one day it\u2019s 75; the next day it\u2019s 80.  A natural difference.  The high forecast next week may show 90 degrees for two days, and it may hit there, and the next three may be down in the seventies.  Natural variability.  In other words: Nature. Researchers found that nature &#8220;over the course of just a decade can account for increases and dips in warming rates. Researchers said that variability,&#8221; nature, &#8220;could be caused by interactions between the ocean and atmosphere, or other natural factors,&#8221; like&#8230; the weather!<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, the weather could be a factor! (chuckles) The sun (Imagine!) could be a factor.  The global warming crowd tells you the sun isn\u2019t, though.  No, no. You\u2019re not allowed to talk about solar energy, sunspots, storms on the sun. None of that is relevant to global warming.  Even though the only engine of heat is the sun, it is off-limits.  Anyway, the researchers at Duke &#8220;say trends over just a 10-year period do not show much about long-term warming,&#8221; and there\u2019s no evidence whatsoever to suggest that long-term warming over the next 100 years is going to be anything even noticeable, abnormal. <\/p>\n<p>Duke University researchers, i.e., scientists. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a consensus of \u2019em. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_105120\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/EarthDay-Rush4.jpg\"\/><BR\/>There\u2019s a consensus of these people that there isn\u2019t any warming going on.  &#8220;&#8216;If that message gets out, then I think there would be less back and forth arguing about these short-term temperature trends because it doesn\u2019t really matter that much scientifically,\u2019 explained Patrick Brown, a doctoral student in climatology at Duke University\u2019s Nicholas School of the Environment.&#8221; Oh, Mr. Brown, I wish I could speak to you. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re a doctoral candidate, and what you just said has no relationship to the global warming crowd.  We\u2019ve gotten your message out for 25 years, the message that there isn\u2019t any warming, and there isn\u2019t in the specifically past 18 years. There isn\u2019t any, and we\u2019ve gotten that message out, and there hasn\u2019t been any reduction in arguing.  In fact, what\u2019s happening is the global warming crowd is not even allowing dissent.  They want to shut up people that doesn\u2019t accept the consensus. <\/p>\n<p>Actually, this is encouraging in a way. <\/p>\n<p>Here you have a doctoral candidate, obviously in his mid-twenties, and he thinks he\u2019s got evidence.  I love this.  This is a young guy and he\u2019s got evidence. He thinks he can take the evidence to the global warming crowd, and they\u2019ll see it, and they\u2019ll believe it, and there will be less arguing.  That\u2019s not at all what\u2019s gonna happen, because this isn\u2019t about science. It isn\u2019t about facts. It isn\u2019t even about warming.  It isn\u2019t even about the climate, I have long contended.<\/p>\n<p>Our official climatologist here, Dr. Roy Spencer, has not been happy with me over this, but I\u2019ve argued with these climate scientists that don\u2019t buy into this. I said, &#8220;You\u2019re falling into the trap when you argue science with them.  They don\u2019t have any science.  They\u2019ve got computer models.  You\u2019re losing them. People can\u2019t keep up with the science.  Start studying clouds or whatever aspects of the climate with scientific explanation and you\u2019re gonna lose everybody.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not what they\u2019re using.  This is pure ideology on the march, and it\u2019s gotta be dealt with and refuted in that regard.  But the climate scientists who oppose global warming say, &#8220;Well, no. They\u2019re presenting it as science and that\u2019s how we\u2019re gonna refute it. We\u2019re presenting it with the scientific data they claim; we\u2019ve gotta refute it.&#8221;  Which I understand, but it\u2019s all bogus to begin with. Garbage in, garbage out. Analyzing garbage, treating it as real in order to refute it gives it credibility that it does not deserve to begin with.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Earth Day: &#8220;Duke Study Finds &#8216;Natural Variability\u2019 Impacts Global Warming.&#8221; (Gasp!)
