Have Changes In Ocean Heat Falsified The Global Warming Hypothesis?

Yes, many global warming alarmists assume that the reason globally averaged surface temperatures have showed no warming if not some cooling over the last several years, is because of heat being absorbed by the worlds ocean's. If the ocean heat content has been on the decline as well over the last several years, according to most scientific principles, that represents yet another piece of very damning evidence against the AGW theory or hypothesis. But not to worry Im sure there will be some very clever reason presented to explain why the oceans are cooling as well.

No, they have the attribution the right way round. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, adding more of it causes the atmosphere to warm. There is no uncertainty about this. The fact that CO2 did not *trigger* the changes in the past does not in any way imply that it did not *contribute*, as the makers of that video want you to believe. Variations in Earth's orbital parameters (such as the Milankovitch Cycles) cause the climate to start warming. This in turn causes the oceans to start releasing more CO2, which then contributes to the warming. (1) As for Mars, there is no evidence of global warming. There is a small, regional change occurring near the southern ice cap due to dust storms (or rather, a lack thereof). (2) Last, the sun has shown no increase in irradiance since at least 1940 (3), and there has been no increase in sunspot activity for the last 57 years (4).

something, too you might want to consider...

Question:

Is Earth a sphere?

Answer:

Because the planet rotates and is more flexible than you might imagine, it bulges at the midsection, creating a sort of pumpkin shape. The bulge was lessening for centuries but now, suddenly, it is growing, a recent study showed. Accelerated melting of Earth's glaciers is taking the blame for the gain in equatorial girth.

Lol nice, he used observations from a 6 year period. A carefully chosen period I might add, as 2003-2008 is the *only* 6 year period in at least the past 15 years that had a negative statistical temperature trend. 2002-2007, 2001-2006, etc, all the way back, were all positive.

But then, I suppose we shouldn't expect too much from Dr. DiPuccio, who is after all not a climatologist, but rather the director of the Institute for Classic Christian Studies...

As another poster on this thread stated: "But then, I suppose we shouldn't expect too much from Dr. DiPuccio, who is after all not a climatologist, but rather the director of the Institute for Classic Christian Studies..."

So, following that poster's logic, no one should pay any attention to Al Gore who.... after all.... was simply a Divinity student.... and a poor one at that.

"Gore attended Vanderbilt University Divinity School instead, studying there from 1971 to 1972. He later said he went there in order to explore "the spiritual issues that were most important to me at the time." [Like the Religion of Global Warming??!!]

Global warming is a fact, just look at the calamities all over the world. Katrina, Phuket, Alaska, Canada, floodings in Pacific Asia i.e. China, Philippines, Vietnam and many more.. what else do you want to see.. do you think peoples opinion will make a difference... look listen and learn..

No.

Changes in the sun will, however.

No, it hasn't.
