Up to the ankles in Climate Change

This day the Spectator reported on the damage done to the Lake Ontario shoreline as a result of high water levels in the lake - for the second time in three years.


The Spectator is up to its ankles in evidence of error, and yet it persists in perpetuating the error.  Rising CO2 levels and rising methane levels were supposed to trap more heat in the atmosphere, causing a climate that is warmer and drier.  The Spectator is reporting that Lake Ontario is overflowing because of the unexpectedly cool and wet winter and spring we had.  Oops!

Earlier, the Spectator reported on the problems local farmers were having as a result of the cool and wet winter and spring.  The problems local farmers are having is experience all over North America, and for the same reason: a cool and wet winter.

This wasn’t supposed to be.  The big weather forecasters predicted a warm and dry winter, consistent with the global warming theory.  But that’s not what happened in the actual event.  If climate science were real science, the gap between prediction and actual event would send the scientists back to the drawing board.  But that won’t happen.

Too much politics, too many careers, and too much reputation is invested in the global warming hypothesis – now called climate change on account of the unsustainability of the “warming” hypothesis. Now, rising CO2 is blamed for both hotter and cooler, and for wetter and drier climates, and every bad weather event.

The climate change nonsense would die in an instant the moment it failed to support the progressive political narrative.
