IPCC Confirms CO2 Is Not A "Thermostat" & Global Warming Is Not "Dangerous"
The United Nations IPCC climate agency has a gold-standard dataset used since 2007 to make global climate predictions - the HadCRUT3 gold-standard confirms that the predicted dangerous global warming is non-existent, and unequivocally, that CO2 is not the world's thermostat.
Taxpayer-funded climate scientists and ideologue politicians have continuously predicted that the globe will suffer from dangerous global warming; and they claimed that human CO2 emissions acted as the world's climate thermostat.
Fortunately for the world's citizens, the experts and pompous political elites and elected officials have been egregiously wrong.
As the adjacent chart reveals [right], the IPCC's own temperature gold-standard (HadCRUT3) refutes the "experts" and "elites" hysterical, anti-science prognostications:
#1. The global temperature dataset clearly indicates that the world has exhibited a slight global cooling trend since the spike in temps from the super El Niño of 1997/98. That's 180 months (15 years) of non-dangerous global warming.
#2. The chart's thin black line is a plot of the monthly changes in CO2 levels. The correlation between monthly temperature and CO2 changes ranges from slim to none - this supposed thermostat relation of CO2 to temperatures has a ludicrously low R2 of 0.01. CO2 is not only not a "thermostat," it's likely not even a major climate forcing, per the actual data.
#3. While global temperatures have been slightly cooling, the global changes in monthly CO2 levels have been slightly increasing (note smooth grey curve - a 2nd order fit).
#4. Simply stated, this actual IPCC gold-standard empirical evidence robustly refutes all the anti-science predictions/claims of climate "experts" and alarmist "elites."
And, as we are currently witnessing, the green-sharia, anti-human fanatics are now having to do some serious crawling-back from their previous anti-CO2 agenda and bogus-science blinders to the climate reality.

Great article, well spotted Anne, it's one of those occasions when you read something which you feel you have known all along.
Having worked in advertising as a Writer/Art director from the early 1970s right up until the early 90s I and my colleagues had to comply with the most stringent guidelines here in the UK.
I am amazed at what these charlatans have been getting away with over the past few deacades it beggars belief and you couldn't make it up,
No I didn't watch Attenborough's programme, I used to enjoy programmes about wildlife but The BBC/Attenborough are like a red rag to a bull as afar as I'm concerned, they are colluding and produce nothing short of blatant AGW propaganda.
It's a real shame as the camera crews are excellent at what they do producing some stunning photography, but I only have to hear Attenborough's annoying voice and it's a big turnoff for me now.
Listened to 1984 yesterday afternoon with Christopher Eccleston as Winston Smith, excellent drama, but even more frightening now than ever before, I've read Orwell's classic about 3-4 times with about 7/8 years in between and every time I am disturbed at how far down the road we have gone towards that kind of society.
Incidently, a coincidence struck me, Tony Blair probably did more to set this country on the road to the 1984 future than any other Pime Minister, Eric Arthur Blair was Orwell's real name, creepy huh?
It's snowing hard here, my how the planet does waht it pleases and refuses to co-operate! Hee Hee
