Would be nice to have a government that doesn't constantly lie to its People

In re:  The above chart. The most Arctic Ice volume was in 1979.  Needless to say, the present powers-that-be in the United States use 1979 at the starting point in their Arctic Ice Volume graph.  This deceives the common layman into assuming that 1979 was an ordinary year, and that co2 caused Arctic Ice to get trapped in a one-way runaway ice melt.  That's a falsehood.

The truth is that the 1970s and 1930s, along with 1954, had low-volume Arctic ice years, intermingled with some high volume Arctic ice years.  Climate is cyclical, like a roller coaster ... or a piston engine ... or an amplitude modulation wave (which see).

Well, the Atlantic would soon cool down thereafter, and sea ice would increase and then decrease and then increase the most in 1979.  But, the present administration is stingy and miserly with the truth.

As a reinforcement of learning, here is a chart that concurs with the reality that there were low-volume (low-cover) Arctic ice years before the high volume ice year of 1979.  Thus, it has NOT been a one-way decrease of ice into nothingness.  Climate is cyclical, like a roller coaster:

The pink-shaded part is the part that the government no longer shows the People.  None the less, Arctic Ice cover was low (at times) even before the "Global Warming" Scare began.  Showing this chart to the public would negate the entire hysteria of it all.  "They" can't bring themselves to let the People be at Peace.  "They" have to keep the People in a state of fear, or "they" will lose power.  This is why Michael Crichton wrote, A State of Fear.

Let's also address the altered Forest Fire Chart, compliments of the less-than-honest Biden People.  Today, that chart begins with the year of the least number of forest fires ... 1983.  Thus, the Biden People make it look as if 1983 were an average year, and all the other years to follow had doom-ridden increases of fire ... presumably caused by increased atmospheric CO2.  However, CO2 was far less in the atmosphere, when burnt fire acreage exceeded 40 million acres per year.  In as much, I would like to introduce you to the true United States forest fire acreage chart which has NO CORRELATION to any level of CO2. 

Speaking of liars, there is also the matter of Michael Mann claiming to be the co-winner of the Nobel Prize.  Concerning this, it was NOT the Nobel Prize in Science that he claimed to have co-won.  He claimed to be the co-winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

None the less, the following link will take you to the video which will show you that the Nobel Foundation does NOT recognize Michael Mann as the winner or co-winner of any kind of Nobel Prize.  This illustrates that Michael Mann is nothing more than a lying con artist who has no problem absorbing American taxpayer dollars ... like a vacuum cleaner ... on steroids.  You are living in the Age of Climate Racketeering.

See & Hear:  A representative of the Nobel Foundation emphatically stating that Michael Mann NEVER won or co-won any type of Nobel Prize

The Next Total Falsehood from the Climate Nazi Klan:  London Fires. 

The following chart comes from the London Fire Brigade.  It shows that the number of yearly fires in the 610 square mile range of Greater London has decreased significantly.  The significant DECREASE occurred, while atmospheric CO2 levels consistently increased.  In fact, it was the Year 2014 when the London Fire Brigade officially announced that present London Area fires have dwindled in number to almost half of the number of fires in the 1980s & 1990s, per year.  

However, in 2022, a few liar journalists claimed that rising CO2 levels caused an untold number of fires to ignite London.  Very False.  The number of London Area fires SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED throughout the exact same time span when co2 levels were incrementally rising.  The London Area fires also DECREASED, while the London Area population increased by 1.3 million people, since the Year 2000.

Keep in mind that this chart was officially released by and through the London Fire Brigade.

This shows that there is NO CORRELATION between co2 levels and British fires, as well as population increase and British fires.   Liar journalists should be fired and sued for the intentional infliction of emotional distress.  Scaring schoolchildren endlessly is a form of child abuse.  It's the molestation of a schoolchild's mind.

In order to put things into perspective, know that Oxygen, Nitrogen, & Argon comprise 99.93% of the atmosphere ... minus the percentage of water vapor in the air.  NOT much room left for much of anything else.  

I repeatedly asked people, as a poll, what percentage of the atmosphere is co2.  The majority said "30%."  Only one person got the question almost correct.  He was in Chicago, where I experienced the coldest temperatures in my life ... and I worked during -30F wind chills in Pennsylvania, and I endured brutal cold in Massachusetts. 

Well, everything that needed to be said was spoken in the facial expressions of the people who realized that they have been severely deceived by an orchestrated con game.  They instantly saw things differently as soon as they learned that CO2 is only 416 parts per million ... 42 parts per 100,000 ...  4.2 parts per 10,000 ...  1 part per 2,403.   

Meanwhile, nitrogen exists at 1,874 parts per 2,403.  Oxygen exists at 504 parts per 2,403.  Argon exists at 22 parts per 2,403 ... vs 1 part per 2,403 for carbon dioxide.

Think further:   If CO2 were a group of sports fans at Rose Bowl Stadium, CO2 would only occupy 42 seats.  Nitrogen would occupy 78,000 of the seats.  Oxygen would occupy 21,000 of the seats, and Argon would occupy 930 of the seats.  In addition, Methane would only occupy one seat every FIVE Rose Bowl games.  Methane presently exists at 1.909 parts per million; basically 2 parts per million ... 1/500,000.   Once again, remember:  You are living in the Age of Climate Racketeering.
 
We return to Arctic Sea Ice.  As was previously mentioned, the year of the MOST arctic sea ice was 1979.  Needless to say, this is the year of the starting date for the Biden People.  That's where the altered charts and graphs begin.   HOWEVER, Arctic sea ice was very low in the 1930s and in some of the years of the 1970s.  Plus, 1954 was a low-ice year.  And let us not forget the extreme Arctic Ice loss reported in 1922, exactly one hundred years ago.  There is much more Arctic Ice today than there was in 1922.

All in all, starting the sea ice chart at the year of the most accumulated ice accomplishes a predictable deception.  It made it appear that the recent decline of sea ice were a never-before seen phenomenon.  Yet,  that depth of decline already occurred in the 1930s & 1970s (after man landed on the moon with technology advanced enough to detect Arctic sea ice volume.)  Those two decades are not too far off in time.

The great mystery is how long will the politicians and their accomplices think that they can deceive all of mankind?  The evidence proving them liars is blatant.  The only trick is to hide the evidence from the People.  It didn't universally work.  Some people made copies of the evidence.

At this point, remember how confident everyone was on the "Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction."  It was ALL an illusion ... a costly illusion ... a deadly illusion.

Climate IS cyclical, like a roller coaster.

Crop harvest record highs in 2021, ~the deception of the July 2021 temperature claim, ~Antarctica's coldest Winter was 2021.

Greater London had
. . . Also in 2021, Greater London had its least number of yearly fires in its record-keeping history which goes back to 1966.  In fact, Greater London had at least twice as many fires that it did each year, from 1969 to 2005, than 2021 had.  Moreover, 1976's 60,000+ fires were three times more than 2022's 19,297 fires.  And 2022 had the fourth lowest number of yearly fires in Greater London's recorded history.  Yet, the year prior, namely 2021, had the least number of yearly fires, to the statistical tune of 14,929.

See:   https://www.bluemarblealbum.com/2022/11/london-fire-statistics.html

Certain scientists of varying fields, as well as politicians and activists, make surprisingly large sums of money promoting the "Sky-is-Falling-due-to-Man-Made-CO2."  Therefore, they have a massive conflict of interest.  Doubly therefore, you will NOT hear the truth or even counterpoint from them.  

Incidentally, did you ever wonder why Al Gore refuses to debate anyone on atmospheric science?  Well, the answer is summed-up in the following instance:  Al Gore once went on the late night NBC talk show (hosted by high IQ bearer, Conan O'Brien) and Gore proceeded to state that the center of the Earth is millions of degrees.  Try 9,800F to 10,800F.  If the Planet Earth's interior were millions of degrees, it would have long since vaporized, literally.  

Anyway, that one video clip shows how entry-level and how lazy in education Al Gore is when it comes to any of the Earth sciences.  He's simply a con artist who holds an obscenely high amount of money that he didn't have in his possession, until after his very non-factual movie came out in 2006.  That movies' assertions (aka declarative statements) are easy to pick apart ...chess piece by chess piece.

Needless to say, the goal in all the climate exaggerations and in  all the censorship of climate whistleblowers, is this:  To keep all of mankind convinced that a rise in the co2 level will automatically result in a rise in temperature and a rise in "weather disasters;" --- and to simultaneously have mankind believe that all of the weather disasters are caused by industrial factories and the operating of combustible engines, instead of decadal ocean oscillations and/or the Sun Spot Cycle (aka the Milankovitch Cycles) and/or orbital forcing (the slow change in the earth's degree of tilt.)

BTW, the end of the last Glacial Maximum (aka Major Ice Age) came about from heat rising from the oceans.  It took that heat 1,300 years to rise to the top.  To understand that long length of time, you need to understand Eckman Transport (kind of a cork screw rotation of the layers of ocean water, due to the Coriolis Effect) ... and you have to understand the behavior of an ocean layer called the Pycnocline and "density gradients."  All in all, atmospheric science and oceanography are not as simplex as Al Gore made them out to be.  Al gore is what is simplex; not the oceans and definitely not the atmosphere.


Even in mentioning coal, the media only mentions its emission of life-giving co2 in a demonizing fashion, all the while omitting from the conversation the true pollutant in coal --- namely, deadly airborne mercury.  Coal needs high tech filtration processes --- or coal needs a clever natural filtration process that only the common-sensed worker can conjure.

The great outrage of obsessing over man-made co2, in a Troposphere that contains less than one half of one percent of co2, is that the true environmental enemies of mankind are ignored and neglected for the most part.  Today's great environmental enemy is ===>  

. . . the irresponsible distribution & use of synthetic chemicals, as well as the dissemination of any petrochemical that goes unfiltered or unregulated. Add to this short list, the use of toxic construction material and furniture-making material.  Fracking liquid need to be audited and then amended, too. Plus, lead lateral lines count too as toxic enemies of mankind and life on Earth, along with the aggravation of leaded gasoline residuals.  CO2, however, is the friend to life on Earth.

BTW, it was found that the largest cause of diesel particulate pollution was engine part abrasion.  The larger particulates simply succumbed to gravity, while the more light weight particulates floated about.  So, it wasn't a fossil fuel problem as much as a metal abrasion problem.   None the less, petrol requires filtration.

Even at that, before you replace a major commodity of society, you first arrange of its replacement to be made available in abundance.  You do not cut mass populations off of the needed commodity, and expect them to buy things too expensive for the average human, as well as not in an inventory abundance equal to the population.  The most asinine of people are presenting running society.


A review of the contradictions of the corporate advertising media, in its collective man-mad-co2 doom predictions, includes the following:

{1} CO2 levels having been 9+ times higher during the Ordovician Ice Age than today.  {2} The graph presented by Al Gore at the start of his first movie having been narrated backwards, in that ice-cores showed that a rise in global temperatures came first, followed by relatively a small rise in the co2 level.  Plus ===>

{3} The atmospheric physics rule of pressure gradient forcing which means that warm periods do not have hurricanes and other low pressure storms in high numbers.   {4} The Year 2021 having been a year of record high crop harvesting and record high agricultural exportation for India, Australia, and the United States, thereby proving wrong Al Gore's predictions of crop disaster in any heightened co2 environment.

In fact, growers purposely add co2 to their greenhouse air.  Those growers proved that, if you want to go green, you must increase the co2.

Another great irony in co2 is that, in its liquid states, co2 is commercially used as ... a refrigerant.  

Zero major hurricanes made landfall in the U.S. between Wilma (2005) and Harvey (2017)

In fact, the great irony about the first Gore movie is this:  The year after the movie was released, the U.S. did NOT have a major hurricane making landfall on its shores for 12 consecutive years.  The opposite of what Gore predicted in that movie occurred.  It's now 18 years later, and there still has NEVER been a Category 6 hurricane.  Plus, NO hurricane ever rose to the speed of an EF4 or EF5 (T10+) tornado.  Hurricanes did NOT become more intense, in any capacity, as Gore's predicted. 

The hurricane record, alone, proved that Gore was and is a lying & thieving  charlatan.  None of his doomsday predictions ever came true. 

Failed doomsday predictions:::  1} The Maldives did NOT go underwater, but instead, became frequented by financially affluent Arabians who are apparently really really happy with the place.  

2} The Arctic Ocean has not even come close to an ice-free Summer.  The closest to Gore's prediction was 1.32 MILLION square miles of ice remaining intact at the end of the Drought Year of 2012.  That's the lowest. 

3} The previously mentioned "Category Six Hurricane" prediction & the general intensification of hurricanes prediction.   Include the previously mentioned fact that never in known history was there any hurricane equal to an F4, EF4, or an F5, EF5 tornado.

4} Gore predicted that lower Manhattan would go underwater.  Everyone in New York, New Jersey, and everywhere else knows that it didn't do so.

The true carbon footprint left behind by co2.  CO2 is the "going-green" molecule.

Now, there was the relatively recent change of data numbers of past charts, tables, and grafts related to climate and weather. They are now the amended charts & graphs, done in the name of "homogenization."   Thus, the record heat that was reported in hundreds of newspapers in the 1930s is now recorded by NOAA as not worth our attention.  And even though research scholars proved, via proxy evidence, that 1934 was the worst drought in one thousand years, it will no longer indicate this on certain adjusted government graphs of recent.

The De Facto Original Climate Record

Keep in mind that the newspapers of old (as in the weather disaster Years 1871, 1878, 1911, 1913, 1921, 1922, 1934, 1936, etc) additionally reported on the human pain experienced, as well as the heat deaths, the fire deaths, the crop losses, and the mass exodus from cities during heat waves; not just the temperature numbers.  Thus, the newspapers are the original climate record.  

This means that, if today's amended numbers in the charts, tables, and graphs of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration fail to reflect the newspaper reports of the actual temperatures, the pain, and the loss reported at the time of the actual weather disasters, then you have yourself a case of massive fraud, with the motive being the predictable ploy for Congressional money, NGO money, publishing prestige, etc.  

Let us review a couple of these weather disaster allegations which either qualify as outright frauds or as gross misinterpretations of valid data or erroneous data --- and therefore they constitute artificially created media hype designed to capture higher ratings:

Sample #1 of the endless end-of-the-world climate hysteria being once again disseminated throughout the airwaves ===>

August 2021:  Media giant CNN & US government administrator NOAA reported with full certainty that July of 2021 was the hottest MONTH for the entire planet in our collective lifetime.  Now, this would infallibly translate into guaranteed crop failure in major proportions, by September or October of 2021, according to the Al Gore Pretend School of Atmospheric Physics.  This would have also guaranteed that there would be no positive record-breaking crop success anywhere in the same year.  

 Newsflash:  The 2021 American, Indian, and Australian harvests were the opposite of the type of harvest that results from disastrous heat.  NOAA's Rick Spinrad has a lot of 'splaining to do.

Undeniable Fact #1:  The United States Department of Agriculture officially reported that the soybean harvest of 2021 resulted in the United States' all-time record HIGH.  The same USDA reported that the corn harvest of 2021 was near the United States' all time record HIGH.  In fact, 2021 cotton production was up 21% from 2020.   Thus, there was no heat-related weather disaster in the American farmlands, in 2021 ... especially in July.

See: soy at record high, corn near record high, cotton up 21%.

Moreover:   In the Year 2021 . . . in the year that was reported to have had the hottest month of July ever, and which would have infallibly resulted in widespread crop disasters . . .

 The USDA furthermore reported that the United States of America's "AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS SHATTERED RECORDS IN 2021," "eclipsing the previous record, set in 2014, by 14.6%."

 See:  U.S. agricultural exports shatter records in 2021.

In re: India's record rice production 

See:  India's rice exports up 46% in 2021

See also: India's 2021 rice production, 121 million metric tonnes.

In re: Australian Agriculture

Antarctica had its Coldest Winter in Known history in 2021

Yes, the supreme asininity of NOAA's doomsday heat claim of July 2021 consisted in the fact that Antarctica ended up having its coldest Winter in recorded history in 2021.  July 2021 was during the coldest Antarctic Winter in history.  This negated everything that the NOAA asserted.

The reason why July 2021 was claimed as such by NOAA was this:  In May & June of 2021, Greenland underwent winter conditions which was the undoing of the co2 Global Warming theory.  Then, in July, Greenland's surface temperature went up significantly.  So, the NOAA used the July temperature record to hide the cold temperature record of the preceding months.  This is a form of deception.

We continue with the sham report (or else the heavily misinterpreted report) about July 2021.  Now, it was reported to have been the hottest month worldwide, in the lifetimes of everyone alive.  Well, observe the temperature reports of the entire month of July 2021, in the following sample of international cities.  So, where is all this man-made co2 driven temperature anomaly doom?

Ladies & gentlemen, I first present to you Mexico City, a place far south of the hot hot southern states of the United States.  Looking at its July temperature record instantly makes you ask, "Where are all the hideously high Summertime doom temperatures, during the hottest July of our lifetime?"   During July 2021, a person literally had to wear a light jacket at night, in Mexico City.

Let's now go to the capital city of the African Congo.  It's called Kinshasa, and it should have been exceptionally hot in that African town, during the hottest month in human memory.  Right?  Well, there was nothing to write home about.  All July 2021 days there were in the 80s Fahrenheit, except for three days in the low 90s.  Two days were at 90F and one day was at 91F.  This does NOT constitute the kind of weather disaster you would expect to witness during the hottest month known to living beings.   

]In all honesty, the hottest of the hot years were 1931, 1934, and 1936.  In fact, the hottest daily temperature ever recorded occurred during 1913.  Hottest months should be located within those years.

We now travel to the African capital of Kenya, Nairobi City.  It should have been super hot there, during the hottest month in human memory.  Right?  Not even close.  In July 2021, there was NOT a day over 75 degrees Fahrenheit.  So, where is all this Kenyan Global Warming doom that Al Gore mentioned in his 2006 movie?  It looks like someone was committing pretty intense fraud, in the making of that movie.

Let's take a look at Los Angeles, in July of 2021.  LA should be a high temperature place during the hottest month known to all the living.  Well, it wasn't.  It was average Summertime temperatures.  Nothing epic. Nothing apocalyptic.  Only one out of 31 days in the low 90s.  You could find this kind of weather up north.

We travel further eastward, to the modernized megacity of Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.  It's located at the center of the Western Indian coastline, next to the Arabian Sea which, too, is supposed to be undergoing ocean warming at the hands of evil evil man-made co2.  

Plus, Mumbai is a Northern Hemispheric city, at the same latitude as is Mexico City.  Well, in July 2021 not a single day was over 92 degrees Fahrenheit, and after July 7, 2021, there was not a single day over 89F, in Mumbai.  And remember, there are cities, such as New Dehli and Phoenix Arizona, where temperatures are habitually over 100F, two weeks in succession, even with temps going into 111F or 112F for consecutive days at a time.  Mumbai is not one of them.   July 2021 was a typical month there; not the hottest in memory.

We continue our rotation around the Earth and land in Quito, Ecuador.  Now, this is a place where the angle of the sun makes a direct hit.  So, the hottest month in the memory of every living human should have been one where Quito was absolutely cooking.  Well, there was no heat wave in Quito that month.  Throughout that entire month (July 2021) in Ecuador, it was Autumn coat weather.

I can go further, with numerous examples.  But, hopefully you get the message.  You have been the recipient of distortion and dishonesty, at the hands of power abusers.

March 18th Antarctic plateau temperature rise: Warm Australian winds. Not caused by co2, as is evidenced by high (sunlight reflective) snow albedo.

Earth from 1.5 million kilometers during the total solar eclipse visible in Antarctica on December 4th, 2021.
This NASA photo is titled, Eclipse Over Antarctica.  That's not heat singeing the center.  That's the absence of sunlight.  CO2 didn't cause this.  Activists who spread CO2 paranoia apparently have no idea how ridiculous they sound . . . and how ridiculous they appear to be.  It's Lunacy City.  In fact, it's Hypocrisy Central.
 
Let's take a few moments and look at the March 18, 2022 media reports on the Antarctic Plateau temperature rise, as was reported by the French and Italian scientists at the Concordia Dome C Research Station.  The temperature reading was conveyed as "provisional."  That denotes conditional ... contingent ... yet to be confirmed ... definitely not final.  
 

The report was that the Antarctic Plateau (located 10,607 feet above sea level) reached an extremely unique high of 11.3 degrees Fahrenheit (It should have been marked at 10.76F, by the way) and MINUS 11.8 Celsius. 

The average temperatures of the Concordia Dome C region for that day are -62F for a high and -75F for the low temp.  In addition, March 18 is the coldest day of the month for that area, statistically speaking.  THUS, it was a temperature anomaly wave, as opposed to a heat wave that occurred for about five days there.  Yet, it involved big numbers, relatively speaking.

This March 18 temperature did get news coverage, but it would have been an insult to even the average intelligence to have blamed the temperature on co2.  This is because the Antarctic Plateau is shear white, and the Albedo of ice/snow is 85, meaning that 85% of all the sun rays which hit a sheet of snow/ice reflect back into outer-space.  That means that . . .

. . . there simply isn't the presence of infrared light at the Antarctic Plateau to affect or effect temperature there.  

Now remember, greenhouse gases have no power in the absence of infrared light.  Therefore, greenhouse gases are instantly ruled-out as a cause of anything decisive where there is there is the whiteness of a snow-scape or an ice-scape.  

As was proven via the many heatwaves & droughts of centuries past (when co2 levels were 108 to 138 ppm LOWER than today), CO2 is NOT the driver of climate in any capacity.  Rather, CO2 is the driver of PHOTOSYNTHESIS, and without photosynthesis, life on Earth eventually ceases.  To kill off co2 is kill off mankind.  This explains why pro-abortion activists are obsessed with the Al Gore "Climate Change" doctrine.  They hate humanity and want to kill it off, as much as possible.

They claim that mankind is killing Planet Earth.  But, the statistics are that Planet Earth has been killing humanity very successfully throughout the centuries, via:

{1} hurricanes, {2} tornadoes, {3} droughts, heatwaves & crop failure, {4} plagues, {5} tsunamis, {6} volcanoes, {7} cold spells, {8} lightning strikes, {9} wild animal attacks, {10} shark attacks, {11} blizzards, {12} avalanches, {13} allergic reactions, {14} poison mushrooms, {15} poison plants. {16} heavy metal contamination, {17} forest fires, {18} floods, {19} pestilence, and {20} EARTHquakes.

It's a mystery that any human is still alive on Earth.

Now, the co2 levels of 2021 were the same as 2022, and 2021 is when Antarctica had its coldest winter on record ... in all of known history.  Thus, if you have two drastically different types of climate while having the same one co2 level, then co2 did not cause the drastically different climate events which occurred in less than 8 months' time.  The case is closed on this.  However, the students of the American public school system, having been as brainwashed as any students of centuries past, will hold on to that belief.  This includes the stubbornness and insistence of Hitler's Youths.

The higher than usual temperature of March 18 on the Concordia Plateau was said to have been caused by warm Southeastern Australian winds and "an atmospheric river." That phrase is new to me, UNLESS it's meant to describe the reality that the air above oceans is LATENT HEAT.  But, apparently, it didn't mean that.

None the less, a review of the Specific Latent Heat of Vaporization is essential for all beginners-novices.  Therefore, the following will help, after the following quick intro:

Q:  What is heat?  ANS #1:  It's energy.  ANS #2: It's transferable energy.  ANS #3:  It's transferable energy in motion.  More Specifically:  It's transferable kinetic energy.

Q2:  How does it transfer?  ANS: Via convection or conduction or thermal radiation (which involves electromagnetic radiation.) 

In as much, hot air rises.  Cool air descends.  Low pressure rises.  High pressure descends.  Plus, wherever you have cold air, you have dry air.  For now, that which matters is the Latent Heat of Vaporization (aka Enthalpy)  There also exists Latent Heat of Fusion.

See:  Latent Heat Tutorial

Also see:  Additional Latent Heat Tutorial for beginners

Now, an atmospheric river is described as something that carries a tremendous amount of water.  Well, it was NOT humid in Concordia on March 18.  

I simply assumed that the Australian winds rode the Latent Heat altitude above the Southern Ocean and then traveled inland for 680 miles, up the incline that leads to the Antarctic Plateau.  

Maybe the winds were of the Chinook variety ... the Foehn variety ... the Santa Ana variety ... downsloping.  However, downsloping winds compress as they rapidly heat.  The Concordia Plateau was low pressure city.  Yet, there was a climb up an incline that was the height of a mountain.  This translates into Adiabatic Heating and Orographic rain.  Such a thing is usually followed by instant heating of compressed wind going down a mountain.  

The difference with March 18, 2022 was that the wind was NOT traveling downhill in a compressed state.  It was crossing a plateau at low pressure.  But, it was exceptionally hotter than expected, even though it still remained well below freezing temperatures.

After all, if it were a matter of orographic rainfall following the path of the 10,607 foot  incline, the report would have mentioned at least a token amount of rain.  Did it?  I didn't see any rain report.  Well, it should have rained in the desert called Antarctica, being that, when air rises, precipitation falls.

If orographic rain were involved, then this was a typical adiabatic heating event, and there had to have been an actual atmospheric river floating across Antarctica.  Yet, it was such a rare event for a typical action to have caused the rarity.  None the less, the Global Warming Lobbyists made a spectacle out of this event.

The most important factor is that co2 did NOT cause this, evidenced by snow's high albedo and therefore it's high reflectivity of sunlight back into outer-space.  Period. 

Latent Heat

Concerning the oceans emitting latent heat, this phenomenon is what happens when "super-cooled" water has it's temperature raised to 32 degrees Fahrenheit.  As the temperature rises to the usual freezing point, heat is released.

Incidentally, super cooled water is that which remains liquid even though it's below 32F.  As the super cooled temperature rises, calories of heat are released into the air above the ocean surface.  Did anything like this happen between Australia and Antarctica on March 18, 2022?

One question at this point:  Why is super cooled water still liquid when below 32F?  ANS:  That water has not yet released its calories.

~~~

Anyway, a recessed front was present in Antarctica on March 18, and such a thing enables a wind to insert itself.  It is similar to those openings in enemy formations that Alexander the Great always searched to find and penetrate.

The temperature anomaly lasted until the 21st of March.  Yes, -22F was a heat anomaly.

BTW, Antarctica has dark desert land which can allow sunlight free-rein.  But, Antarctica is 5.5 million square millions and mostly white.  Albedo prevails there.

None the less, the "apparent" ... the "seeming" ... record high temperature of March 18 was amended on a couple record-keeping data sheets.  The MINUS 11.8 degree Celsius number was changed to MINUS 17.7C in one data set, and MINUS 20C on another set.

This translates into -4 and 0 degrees Fahrenheit which doesn't look as apocalyptic as originally reported. 

Below is an illustration of the Australian wind (green colored border) inserting itself into an Antarctic front (blue) on March 18, 2022.  It arrived at a low-pressured 850 hector-pascals.  This would translate into 12.32 psi --- aka 25.1 inches of mercury, in terms of air pressure, and it was following the Coriolis Effect for a low pressure system in the Southern Hemisphere.  (Incidentally, standard surface air pressure throughout the Earth is 14.7 psi.)  

The Vostok Station got similar temperatures at the same time.  Incidentally, Vostok means "East"in Russian.  Vostok is 350 miles from Concordia.  It's close to the distance between Pittsburgh and the New Jersey border.  In mid-March 2022, they shared similar temperatures, 350 miles apart.

Speaking of Jersey, while the media endlessly harped on heat waves and decreasing water levels, the Jersey shoreline water was exceptionally chilly.  And why?  

ANS:  Because of Upwelling ... because of water rising through the Pycnocline layer of the ocean, making its way to the surface.  It brings with it rich nutrients for the ocean dwellers.  

The average temps for Jersey ocean water, for August, is around 70 - 75 degrees, and it has made it to 79F.  This August, it was found to be 58F and similar temps.

This is pertinent, in light of the Resplendy-Keeling paper of recent years, where it was claimed that the ocean is heating 60% faster than assumed.  Well, the paper had mathematical errors in it that invalidated it.   

At Jersey this Summer, that Resplendy paper was doubly invalidated, being that the upwelling water is soooooo cold.  I stated previously that the majority of ocean water is dark and 39 degrees Fahrenheit.  Well, the Jersey shoreline concurs.  It was Brrrr City there.

Jersey ocean water 12 to 18 degrees Fahrenheit colder this summer

The bottom line is that co2, n2o, & methane (ch4) had NOTHING to do with the March 18, 19, 20, 21 temperature rise which still stayed mostly 30 to 35 degrees Fahrenheit under the melting point.

Moreover, Antarctic March is equivalent to Northern Hemispheric September when there are temporary returns of Summer temps.  Take note of the change of ... the adjusting of ... the amending of ... the March 18, 2022 temperature.

Below:  Take note of the barometer reading for March 18.  It's 28.5 Hg.  That translates into 965 millibars.  That's a category 2 hurricane pressure.  None the less, an anabatic wind is dependent upon solar irradiance, instead of pressure... so say the writers of the textbooks.  That's the opposite of a katabatic wind which is a Chinook Wind and a Foehn Wind and a down-sloping wind.

The low humidity makes things believable enough in this case.

Looks like the end of the world has been postponed.  The world needs consolation more than theatrics & hype.  Easily bored people need theatrics and hype.  Easily bored people are boring people.  So, they market hype, instead of hope.

Boring people are void of true intrigue, such as how things work in nature.  Closed minds learn nothing, especially those in brainwashing chambers (called classrooms) where they repeatedly heard, "co2", "greenhouse gases," and "the burning of fossil fuels."

~~~

The media simply wants to see people hyped-up ... as in sensationalism ... as in running wild in the streets, setting fires.  This is done in search of higher ratings.  That wild-in-the-streets pyromania has been done before.  Nothing new or intriguing there.  Try to solve some of life's mysteries, instead of ending life.  Intrigue is built into the human system.

The "Antarctic" record high of 64.9F occurred on a peninsula 1,840 miles away from the South Pole and 206 miles outside the Antarctic Circle.

The never-ending climate doomsday deceit: Subject, Antarctica.

 It was reported that Antarctica reached a record high 63.5 degrees Fahrenheit, in the Southern Hemisphere's Summer of 2017.  The brashly done report made it appear that a countdown toward a melt down had started within the Antarctic Circle. This would logically result in a crisis stage sea level rise occurring in the near future.

  Then, three years later, in the Summer of 2020, the same location recorded a "record high 64.9 degrees Fahrenheit."  Upon this news, the prognosticators & commentators came out like a deliberated jury who just convicted a defendant of a felony.  It sounded as if all of mankind had to surrender all their lives and money to the Climate Change people, in order to be saved from drowning.  However, a super huge piece of information was completely omitted.  That information was that:

The place where those temperatures occurred was located 1,840 miles away from the South Pole, at a research station that was located 206 miles OUTSIDE of the Antarctic Circle.  In fact, it was located 700 miles from southern tips of Argentina and Chile.   It's called the Esperanza Base, and it's located near the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula.

Record cold appeared thereafter, and even CNN reported it

Then came a balancing-out event.  In the following year, the Year 2021, the entire Antarctic continent endured the coldest Winter in recorded history.  This record-breaking Winter technically NEGATED all Global Warming claims for that year, as much as did "the Global Warming Pause" for the years spanning from 1999 until the beginning of 2016.    

Likewise, the temperature "decline" that spanned from circa 1940 to circa 1975 negated any thoughts of Global Warming in the history books.  So notable was the Global Cooling of the 1960s and 1970s that scientists from the USSR and USA banded together to study and resolve the increase of cold and Arctic ice, at a time not so distant from today.

However, the 1920s and 1930s were the times when droughts and high temperatures, as well as wildfire frequency, were at their undeniable heights ... in as far as concerns honest people who do not alter the climate record.   The 1870s and 1890s were heated decades too.  The decades of the ultimate catastrophes were the 1870s and the 1930s.

The Comparable 1,840 mile zone in the Northern Hemisphere

Reykjavik Iceland is 1,787 miles from the North Pole.  Well, in 1939 it reached 86.9 degrees Fahrenheit in Reykjavik.  And of course, there was no 23 foot sea level rise that ensued.  In addition, Reykjavik reached 85F in August of 2021 as well as 85F in June of 1974, 84F in July of 1991, and 83F in June 1988.  In comparison, Esperanza Base could only get to 64.9F.  Why not 74.9F or 84.9F, like Reykjavik?

Incidentally, the year of the highest concentration of Arctic ice was 1979.   Moreover, there were years in the 1970s and even the 1960s when Arctic Ice was low ... for those particular years.  So, there is not a set course of ice coming and going, as Al Gore wants to deceive you into believing.  In fact . . .

... there is pertinence to the fact that de facto cult leader, Al Gore, amassed $280 - $330 million personal dollars into his personal financial portfolio, while sounding the "Global Warming" alarm ... which was changed to the "Climate Change" alarm ... on account of the fact that there was a cessation in Global Warming ... starting in 1999.  

You should understand this accumulation of climate alarmist financial wealth is another sign that this Global Warming Alarm was nothing more than the Global Warming Swindle.   The American schoolchild and the enrolled high school student are expected to be the accommodating dupes who will help the man-made co2 activists get even richer ... richer with US taxpayer debt which will be heaped upon the very schoolchildren conscripted into the service of Al Gore's and Michael Mann's financial portfolios.

You should understand Gore and his "associates" to be engaged in a racket, as in RICO laws and RICO indictments thereof.  You should also understand the False Claims Act, as it refers to whistleblowers who witness fraudulent climate claims that result in the payment of large sums of US taxpayer dollars to the fraudsters.  

However, as far as goes the fanatical high schoolers and even more fanatical college undergrads who do not have the wisdom that comes with decades of experience in working outdoors, you need to understand the power of indoctrination.  There was, of course, the example of the  Hitler Youth whose efforts lead them to the point of watching Germany turn into a scaled version of the craters of the moon.

Perhaps now would be an opportune time to view the 2009 Climategate Emails.

See:  =====>   The Climategate Emails w/ introductions   <=====

The lesson herein is:  Legitimate facts can easily be presented with disproportional perception and twisted into a lie. That's called "False Light" in American law.

Antarctica 2021: Coldest 6 months. 6 months later: Lowest Ice Extent. 6 months more later: Healthy monthly ice gain, after lowest ice reading.

antarctica, snow, ice, landscape, south pole, polar, panorama, frozen, north pole, cold 

The news of it was liberating, because it was the opposite of the 30 year long encroaching doom predictions of ~ non-scientist Al Gore, ~ Michael "Hockey Sticks" Mann who should know better, and ~the Jim Hansen whose June 1988 senate pre-hearing antics were revealed by former Senator Wirth.  

The unexpected news came three years after most of the pending doom predictions were supposed to have come to pass.  In fact, the news came one year after the glaciers at Glacier National Park were supposed to have melted away.   

The news of this event made its way to the tunnel-visioned CNN.  At present, the news of it is being smothered by other climate-related coverage.  Newer news reports have reported conditions opposite of what happened for a six month period in 2021:

                     ***   Antarctica had its COLDEST winter on record.   *** 

Antarctic winters are six months long.  Therefore, Antarctica had its coldest six month period in known history.  More concisely . . .

At the Amundsen-Scott Station, the 2021 April to September temperatures averaged MINUS 78 degrees Fahrenheit.  That amounts to 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit LOWER than the station's 30 year average.

Now, with all the climate disaster propaganda being constantly released, did you assume that the Global Warming profiteers would sit idly and re-assess their belief system, upon hearing that Antarctica's coldest winter had just transpired?  ANS:  Of course not.  They went into hyper-drive, ramping-up the Global Warming, man-made-co2, burning-of-fossil-fuel, cap-and-tax, carbon-tax propaganda in geometric progressions.  And there were outrageous sleight-of-hand deceptions amidst actual news events.

The message always was that the world was going to soon end, if you did not shell out hundreds of billions of American taxpayer dollars and corporate donation dollars to them --- to the Climate Change People.  

There were outrageously high amounts of taxpayer dollars that were already appropriated during the final two years of the Obama administration.  The money was appropriated in the form of  "Climate Change Adaptation" & "Climate Change Research."

But, the Year 2022 was the year of far more tax dollar appropriations.  The tax dollars are simply added sums to the already overwhelming National Debt.  

The outrage is that, instead of spending time and money on life-giving CO2, efforts should have been made in remedying the ills caused by synthetic chemicals and their inundation into every realm of life.  And of course, these synthetic chemicals includes those "Forever Chemicals" such as polyfluoroalkyl substances (aka PFAS,) for starters, followed by many more of the synthetic realm.

BTW, the weather in 2022 wasn't that much different than the climate conditions in very hot and very dry 2012.  I went on a 12,000 mile road trip in the Summer of 2012.  I am well familiar with that type of heated landscape.  I was in the Mojave Desert at 102F.  I was in Oklahoma, when it was 106F.  I remember Arkansas at 104F, and it wasn't all that bad. 

In fact, I remember crossing over the Mississippi River, en route to Vicksburg Mississippi, in late August.  The river's width thinned-out considerably.  That's what alarmed me.  That's when I thought, "yikes."  But, the Mississippi River did get replenished.

I am also familiar with the Winter of 2014 --- the coldest winter in 40 years.  As I recently stated, climate is a cyclical roller coaster ride.  So, spend your money on countering PFAS chemicals, not on life-giving co2.  To combat CO2 is to combat life itself.

Climate Man say, "We're all gonna dry-up soon."  No, wait . . .
Climate Man say, "We're all gonna drown, when the salty seas rise over the piers."

The illustrations directly below concern the sea ice extent surrounding Antarctica in June and July of this year ... 2022.  The red fluorescent circle around the Antarctica ice extent is the average (actually the "median") amount of ice which is usually present there in June and then in July.  

While looking at it, the ice extent looks boringly average ... typical.  No big loss of ice through the years.  No big deal.  In fact, look at the numbers at the horizontal bottom of each illustration:

Total extent for June 2022 was 12.1 MILLION square kilometers (which is 4.67 MILLION  square miles.) 

Total ice extent for July 2022 was 14.9 million sq km (which is 5.75 million square miles of ice extent there.)

This means that, in 30 days, Antarctica gained 2,800,000 square kilometers of ice.  That amounts to 1,080,000 square miles of added ice extent, in one month's time.  That amounts to 36,000 sq miles of added ice per day ... added by nature.  This equal 93,333 square kilometers of new ice per day, added naturally.

In all that gain, the news simply stated that the July 2022 Antarctic sea ice extent was the lowest since 1979, for any month of July.  Incidentally, 1979 was the year of the highest Arctic sea ice extent.  

In having the Sea Ice Extent starting date the same as the year with the highest volume of sea ice, it guarantees that every year to follow will have a lower ice content number than the "benchmark year."  That is deception in action, being that the unfamiliar person will instantly assume that 1979 was an average ice year, instead of the year with the most ice on record.

South
Previously, in late February 2022, the report was that Antarctica had it lowest ice extent in ultra-modern history, meaning "since 1979." It was exactly like the report of July of that year.  At the least, the Space Magazine author who did quote the U.S. National Snow & Ice Data Center in an article, stated that:

"However, the amount of Antarctic sea ice varies considerably each year and climate change is not necessarily to blame." ...

... "The shrinking is likely natural, and partly due to strong winds pushing some sea ice farther north into warmer waters, Nature reported.  I think much, if not all, of the event can be ascribed to natural variability," said Walt Meier, a senior research scientist at the NSIDC.  NSIDC stands for National Snow & Ice Date Center.   Furthermore . . .

 "Antarctic sea ice varies considerably from year to year, and the NSIDC has not found a statistically significant trend in one direction or another using satellite data. This year was the lowest minimum sea-ice extent on record, but the highest minimum sea-ice extent was recorded in 2015." 

Of course, a Climate Con Artist will present this 2022 event in a false light, and then apply intimidation tactics, telling you that it's your fault for burning fossil fuels, and you have to pay the carbon tax, to make up for your sins..  When you don't buy what the guy is asserting, you end up intimidating the climate con artist.

Driving on an amount of ice as large as the July 2022 ICE GAIN is equivalent to driving from Washington D.C. to the outskirts of Miami Florida --- (the square root of 1.08 million miles is 1,039.  Miami to D.C. is 1,050 miles.)  Yet, July 2022 is supposed to have been the least amount of July sea ice extent in modern record-keeping.

All in all, that's a lot of ice accumulation.  Yet, it resulted in the lowest ice extent number on the chart, as far as concerns the month of July.  The remedy is to compare the more recent years, as you search for a trend or the absence of a trend.  Study wind conditions, air masses, the jet stream, air pressure, Etc.  Things are never what they seem to be to an inexperienced novice.

In addition, check for the writers'/speakers' financial interest in the matter upon which he/she speaks.  If the person making the report stands to gain (or has already been payed) tremendous amounts of taxpayer dollars, in a climate-related government contract, then he/she has a conflict of interest and cannot be brought into the conversation.

The lesson:  Don't let yourself be deceived by your failure to recognize proportionality.  Such proportionality is translated into numbers, charts, tables, and graphs.  A person can take numbers and twist them in such away that he makes a doomsday scenario.  If someone is looking for sensationalism and ratings, doomsday will be described, and this is irresponsible to do. 

July 2022 is supposed to be the month of the least sea ice extent for any July month.  It does NOT look much different than any other Winter month.  It still had a lot of ice.  The red line, of course, is the median amount of sea ice extent for July ... the typical amount ... the expected amount.

June 2022:  Antarctic sea ice extent was 12.1 million sq km.  That's 4.67 million square miles.  July 2022:  The ice extent expanded to 14.9 sq km, aka 5.75 million sq miles.  That was an INCREASE of 1.08 million sq miles, aka 2.8 million sq km, between June and July.  That's an increase of 36,000 sq miles of new ice per day (93,333 sq km per day.)  So, where's the End of the World in all that ice accumulation?

 
Comparison: June 2021: 13.5 million sq km (5.21 million sq miles.)
                      July 2021: 16.4 million sq km (6.33 million sq miles.)
                         30 day ice extent increase = 1,120,000 sq miles;
                        an increase of 37,333 sq miles of new ice per day.
                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~
The June to July ice gain for 2021 (when there was a record cold winter) is virtually the same for 2022 (when the July ice extent was the lowest since modernized record keeping began in 1979.)  It was 36,000 sq miles of new ice per day vs 37,333 sq miles of new ice per day.  The Year 2020 wasn't too far behind, at 32,333 sq miles of new ice per day.   It was not all that different.  The lesson:  Con artists use numbers to scare you.   


  June 2020: 13.2 million sq km (5.09 million sq miles)
  July 2020:  15.7 million sq km (6.06 million sq miles)
   That was a 30 day increase of  970,000 square miles;
  an average of 32,333 square miles per day of new ice.
