ThreeBays saysHeadSet saysSo ThreeBays, any solutions other than arguing with heretics and voting Democrat?
For change, conservatives can stand up and support the science too and tell their politicians they don't like being lied to and sold down the river. Politicization of this issue that affects us all is the tragedy.
You just proved my point. You proposed no solutions, just a another jab at deniers and an admission that AGW is political.
Solutions are something concrete like:
Curbing 1st world population growth to a level sustainable by renewables
Importing only from nations following similar envronmental laws as ours
Increased fuel taxes and tolls to decrease gasoline use
Trouble is, Democrats dislike the 1st two items and the fuel tax idea will be unpopular with voters
Oh, thank God, I was hoping an established climate scientist such as yourself, who's done actual research, had a concrete conclusion about the next 5 years of global temperatures.
Nope

Fake news. WaPo thinks Russia beat Hillary.

Greenland's massive ice sheets contain enough water to raise global sea levels by 23 feet.
You willing to put money on that?
. The FACT is that temperatures in May were 65.4 degrees beating the previous high mark of 64.7 degrees set in 1934. Where is the 'fake news' in that?

Link please? because the statement above is ridiculous.
If the temperature continues to fall while co2 keeps rising will you abandon alarmism?
Absolutely. But temperatures aren't going to fall.
Temperature peaked in 2016. It has been going down ever since.
May be
Temperature peaked in 2016. It has been going down ever since.
So, just to be clear, you think that based upon your extensive scientific background, your intuition, etc. that global average temperatures will somehow plummet 2-3 degrees Celsius
Even though year-to-year fluctuations in the average temperatures generally are in the tenths of degrees Celsius?
If the global average temperature drops 3° Celsius (or more) in the next 5 years, you win. Otherwise, I win. But even without money on the line, I think it's important to pin this idea and keep tabs on it for the next five years.
Honestly I hope you're right. But sadly, you won't be.
Onvacation saysbackground of competent solar scientists (spelling corrected)
Which one(s)?
The ones that alarmists would claim are disreputable because they fill their gas tanks with fossil fuel.

Lol Peter Ferrara is a giant tool bag. Here's a direct quote from him:
“While I am not a scientist, and write primarily on economics, tax policy and budget issues, I have been fascinated over the years by Heartland’s work on climate change.”
Why is it so many pundits from the climate change denier sect preface everything they say with "while I am not a scientist"? Oh right, because they're not scientists and don't have a fucking clue how any of it works.
Ferrara was on the take from Casino Jack Abramoff for writing idiotic op-eds in the early aughts. Fuck him
