Dont Call It Global Warming

No, you are right, I did not look hard enough to find an archived article from NASA from 10 years ago containing the disclaimer that it is based on the best available science of the day, and is not being updated.
And did you note that it is based on the now thoroughly discredited temperature reconstruction done by the disgraced Micheal Mann?

I see that NASA is slowly distancing themselves from that position, and coming more inline with accepted science. As of 2016, they have reduced the claim down to unprecedented in the last 1000 years:

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) top climate scientist announced Tuesday that the Earth is warming at a pace not seen in at least the past 1,000 years

There is also this quote from 2016, but it is from the Guardian, so apparently it doesn't count:

In fact, the Guardian notes, "a NASA reconstruction shows that the pace of temperature increase over recent decades outstrips anything that has occurred since the year 500."

Is the year 500 just a random number, or a cherry picked starting date?

Good to see at least you agree the climate is warming.....

Since the ice age, mini ice age, absolutely, and WHO wishes it was COOLING since then????

Never argued with that, we are fortunate enough to live in the warming phase, on a couple of different time scales, all within an extended interglacial.

Do you have any response to the post I made regarding the NASA article and the not so unprecedented rate of warming? Or just change the subject?

Oh I argue with that. There is nothing outside the realm of normal fluctuations of a volatile, chaotic and unbalanced system.

If the earth was warming, the hottest records would be happening now, not 100 yrs ago. The theory clearly states we will experience higher highs. Well no records in danger of being broken since this theory started. Hottest day on record is in Sask in the 1930s and only a handful of extreme temps recorded within the last 30 yrs. The records should be falling like dominoes.

I would like to hear climate theory explain this. And don't give me that 30 yr averages bunk again.

We were in a warming trend from the late 70's until recently. Also in a warming trend since the depths of the little ice age, not yet clear if the peak is behind us, or yet to come, all Within a long term cooling trend, with lower highs and lower lows for the past few thousand years.

It's not getting hotter, it's getting milder.

Yes, by all measures. But climate improvement just doesn't scare the children very effectively.

Sure do. A million posts ago i said whether climate temps increasing are an issue is a socio-political concern, and are not mine. And that the only reason i was responding to the OP was that global climate was not increasing in temp - contrary to the actual data, and what was the difference between Climate and Weather. Let alone the ridiculously simple yet seemingly unexplainable in agriville what the definitions are for Climate and Weather.

You need to discuss with someone else about whether or not temp change is a problem.
