What is rarely mentioned by climate alarmists is the incontrovertible fact that adding more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere has an ever-decreasing effect on global temperature. To illustrate this, compare covering a glass window with very thin paint. The first coat of paint cuts out some light, the second some more; but each subsequent coat has an ever decreasing effect on light shining through. | oversimplification | 2.3.2 | CARDS |
We have two new entries to the long (and growing) list of papers appearing the in recent scientific literature that argue that the earths climate sensitivitythe ultimate rise in the earths average surface temperature from a doubling of the atmospheric carbon dioxide contentis close to 2C, or near the low end of the range of possible values presented by the U.N.s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). | cherry picking | 3.1 | CARDS |
To reduce the interpretation of the causality of all kinds of climate changes and of global warming to one variable, CO2, or to a small proportion of one variable - human-induced CO2 - is impossible to accept. | impossible expectations | 5.1 | CARDS |

Well I have my own article on where the heck is global warming? We are asking that here in Boulder where we have broken records the past two days for the coldest days on record. The fact is that we cant account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we cant. The data published in the August 2009 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong. Our observing system is inadequate. | anecdote | 1.3 | CARDS |
There is no climate crisis. It's all bought and paid for by China. | conspiracy theory | 5.3 | hamburg_test2 |
But for the last 15 years, Earths surface temperatures have failed to rise, despite rising atmospheric carbon dioxide. All climate models predicted a rapid rise in global temperatures, in conflict with actual measured data. | cherry picking | 5.1.4 | CARDS |

Global warming is raising the sea level by something like 1 inch every 10 years. We got total increase of 8 inches since it started many decades ago. 8 inches is irrelevant to this video, it's not that much. | slothful induction | 1.6 | hamburg_test2 |
Yet as we have seen time and time again, with the exception of a -0.05C cooling applied for UHI (which is woefully under-represented) all "adjustments, improvements, and fiddlings" to data applied by NCDC and other organizations always seem to result in an increased warming trend. | conspiracy theory | 5.1.3 | CARDS |
Mars has a 95% concentration of CO2 in its atmosphere. It has almost no oxygen or nitrogen. According to environmental wackos the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere that play should be a tropical Paradise and yet it's a frozen wasteland. That's my point about global warming | false equivalence | 2.3 | hamburg_test3 |
It will be so tiny we cant even measure it. Its going to be less than .02 of a degree for the next several decades, Christy said.We measure the global temperature through satellites, my colleague Roy Spencer and I, here at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. And we see changes ofmore than that from day to day. It would be impossible to detect and attribute a .02 degree change to any regulation that was proposed. | impossible expectations | 4.2.3 | CARDS |

Now, they stopped making predictions and just call it "climate change"! | misrepresentation | 1.8 | hamburg_test2 |
Moreover, the anti-hydrocarbon global warming "solutions" the Obama Administration is imposing will bring no real world benefits even assuming carbon dioxide actually drives climate change. That's largely because China, India and other developing countries are increasing their use of coal for electricity generation, and thus their CO2 emissions far beyond our ability to reduce US emissions. These nations rightly refuse to sacrifice economic growth and poverty eradication on the altar of climate alarmism. | impossible expectations | 4.2.6 | CARDS |
Even in our own lifetimes, there is no relationship between temperature and carbon dioxide emissions by humans, yet there is a very close relationship between solar activity and temperature. | slothful induction | 2.1.1 | jintrain |
Others have argued that the records were caused by El Nino, a complex natural phenomenon that takes place every few years, and has nothing to do with greenhouse gas emissions by humans. | single cause | 2.1.3 | jintrain |
When correlating CO2 with temperature trends in various periods of cyclical warming and cooling the last 110 years we find a negative correlation from the late 1800s to 1917 (-0.35), positive from 1917 to 1940 (+0.43), negative during the WWII and post WWII boom from 1940 to around 1975 (-0.40), positive from 1975 to around 2000 (+0.36) and negative in the short period to 2009 (-0.56). | single cause | 2.3.3 | CARDS |
However, since 1998, little warming has occurred while carbon dioxide emissions continue to increase. | cherry picking | 1.4 | jintrain |

Globally averaged thermometers show two periods of warming since 1900: a half-degree from natural causes in the first half of the 20th century, before there was an increase in industrial carbon dioxide that was enough to produce it, and another half-degree in the last quarter of the century. | false equivalence | 2.1.4 | Alhindi_train |
But if ECS is high‚ say, around four degrees or more then climate change is probably a big problem . We may not be able to stop it , but we'd better get ready to adapt to it . | slothful induction | 4.2.5 | jindev |
Emails and documents mysteriously released from the previously-prestigious Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in the United Kingdom revealed discussions of manipulation and destruction of research data, as well as efforts to interfere with the peer review process to stifle opposing views. The motivation underlying these efforts appears to be a coordinated strategy to support the belief that mankinds activities are causing global warming. | conspiracy theory | 5.3.2 | CARDS |

A new paper published in The Cryosphere finds the largest ice cap in Tibet had approximately equal gain and loss of ice mass between 2000 and 2012, such that "Overall, our results show an almost balanced mass budget for the studied time period. Additionally, we detected one continuously advancing glacier tongue in the eastern part of the ice cap." The findings stand in stark contrast to alarmist claims of a "meltdown" in " the climate front line of Tibet . | cherry picking | 1.1.4 | CARDS |

The year 2007 is now very likely to become RSS MSU's 9th warmest year on record which really means one of the coldest years of our times. It will end up colder than all other years in the 21st century so far as well as 1998 (by 0.4 C) and 1995. We explained that 2006 was very cold but 2007 will be shown as 0.1 C colder. | anecdote | 1.3 | CARDS |
Why is this important? Because, by an equation called the Clausius-Clapeyron relation, as the space occupied by the atmosphere warms it is also capable of carrying near-exponentially more water vapor. Superficially, therefore, considerable amplification of the original warming might be expected. In practice, however, as you rightly point out, the likelihood is that more water vapor in the atmosphere will lead to the formation of more clouds. And it is here that the UN's analysis goes completely astray. For it makes no allowance for the additional cloud-albedo effect that these clouds generated by the water-vapor feedback will create. This leads to a catastrophic overvaluation by the IPCC of the water-vapor feedback; and, though this is partly compensated for by the treatment of all cloud albedo as a forcing, it creates an overstatement of the final warming effect of adding greenhouse gases such as CO2 to the atmosphere after all feedbacks have been taken into account. | oversimplification | 3.1 | CARDS |

According to an EPA estimate made last year, the Waxman-Markey emissions target, even if fully achieved, would lower global CO2 levels in the year 2095 by 25 ppm at most and would, therefore, have a negligible effect on holding back global warming. | impossible expectations | 4.2.6 | CARDS |
Regular readers of CO2 Science will recognize the significance we attach to documenting the existence of the Medieval Warm Period, Little Ice Age and Little Medieval Warm Period throughout the world, the reality of which periods of thermal extremes is typically denied by the world's climate alarmists. Strangely enough, however, evidence for these distinctive warm and cold periods continues to be discovered almost weekly, and at a variety of places around the globe, supporting our thesis that the Current Warm Period is more a product of planet-wide natural forces than of accelerating CO 2 -induced global warming. | single cause | 2.1.4 | CARDS |

Reduce: The effect of Australias carbon tax on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is so tiny as to be undetectable and any miniscule reduction would be totally swamped in the far bigger natural seasonal variations of carbon dioxide levels.
