“The models that have been constructed agree that when, as has been predicted, the level of carbon dioxide or its equivalent in other greenhouse gases doubles from pre-Industrial Revolution concentrations, the global average temperature will increase, and that the increase will be 1.5 to 4.5 degrees Celsius or 3 to 8 degrees Fahrenheit... In Dallas, for instance, a doubled level of carbon dioxide and other gases like methane, would increase the number of days a year with temperatures above 100 degrees from 19 to 78 each year.” YearsHas BeensLevelsNumbersRevolutionDegreesModelsIncreaseAgreeAverageInstanceGlobal WarmingConcentrationCarbonTemperatureGreenhousesDallasCarbon DioxideIndustrial RevolutionGreenhouse GasesMethane Author:Bill McKibben

“When you look at what has happened over the last few decades the natural fluctuations point in the opposite direction of what has actually occurred. When they run the models and plug in the man-made pollution, the correspondence is exact. Beyond that, the scale of natural fluctuations has now been far exceeded by the impact of man-made global warming.” MenLooksMadeRunningLastsNaturalHappenedModelsOppositesImpactDecadesScalesGlobal WarmingPollutionPlugsCorrespondenceFluctuation Author:Al Gore
“The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) own computer model easily shows that President Obama's proposed regulations would reduce global warming by around 0.02 of a degree Celsius by the year 2100. Actually, the true number is probably even smaller because that calculation assumes a future rate of warming - there hasn't been any for 17 years now - quite a bit higher than it is likely to be.” YearsShowsBitsPresidentNumbersHigherDegreesComputerModelsAssumingEnvironmentalRateProtectionAgencyGlobal WarmingPresident ObamaRegulationCalculationsEnvironmental ProtectionEpa Author:Patrick Michaels

“...a vocal minority of scientists so mistrusts the models and the complex fragmentary data, that some claim that global warming is a hoax.

“The only basis for even talking about global warming is the predictions spewed out by computer models. The only quote/unquote "evidence" of global warming is what models are predicting the climate and the weather will be in the next 50 to 100 years. Now, what those models spit out is only as good as the data that's put in, and it's an absolute joke. In terms of science, it's a total joke. There is no warming, global or otherwise!” YearsNextTermTalkingComputerModelsJokesEvidenceBasesAbsolutesClimateWeatherDataGlobal WarmingPredictionsSpitPredicting Author:Rush Limbaugh
