Stopping global warming will be hard but not impossible. In fact, given
that it has stopped for almost two decades now, that means that the best
way to stop the warming is to do nothing! Even the Greens can handle
that one. Of course doing nothing will cost a lot of money but the first
world has a responsibility to pay up to save us all!

The jimp still thinks that the earth hasn't been warming for the last almost 19 years. The data for 2015 added to this graph will be a doozy. http://edu-observatory.org/olli/Climate/BER2014-1.png See all the graphs from Berkeley Earth Report 2014 > http://static.berkeleyearth.org/memos/Global-Warming-2014-Berkeley-Earth-Newsletter.pdf Berkeley Earth has constructed an estimate of the global average temperature during 2014, including land and sea. The "margin of uncertainty" represents the 95% confidence limit, obtained principally by comparison of results from subdividing the data into independent sets. The global temperature estimate is compiled as combination of a land-only temperature estimate constructed by Berkeley Earth directly, and an ocean temperature estimate produced by the Hadley Centre in the UK and modified by Berkeley Earth. -- sci.physics is an unmoderated newsgroup dedicated to the discussion of physics, news from the physics community, and physics-related social issues.

Yeah, sure; none of it is cherry picked data. Funny the satellite data shows no warming for about 19 years. -- Jim Pennino
