Climate alarmists like Barack Obama<\/a> typically – but falsely<\/a> – claim that their agenda rests upon “settled science.”\u00a0 Of course, that doesn’t explain why they’ve shifted their rhetoric from “global warming” to “climate change” after temperatures flattened over the past two decades despite continual increases in worldwide carbon output.<\/p>\n

In that vein, Marlo Lewis over at the Competitive Enterprise Institute made an interesting observation<\/a> regarding a new paper<\/a> entitled “Can Climate Models Explain the Recent Stagnation in Global Warming?” from German meteorologist Hans von Storch.\u00a0 Out of 62 global average temperature projections from climate models used in an upcoming Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, only 2% were as low or lower than the actual flat temperature trend over the past 15 years.<\/p>\n

So the next time someone claims that anthropomorphic (man-caused) global warming is “settled science” among climatologists, calmly point out that only 2% of those within that herd of independent minds projected temperatures at or below the temperatures that actually occurred.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
