Ocean Temperatures

The True Textbook-Defined Signature of Global Warming 

 If there is no temperature rise in the middle of the Troposphere, then there is no global warming.  There was no Tropospheric temperature rise between 1999 and 2016.  This was called the Hiatus (the resting --- the "Global Warming Pause").  

Then certain scientists schemed to find a way to claim that there was no hiatus between 1999-2016, as if scientists didn't get smart until 2017.  They literally claimed that there was accumulated heat hiding in the oceans.   Stop here.   Penalty Flag Time.   Insult to the Intelligence.  Let's go through the steps that will dispel the deception:

Let's begin with the thesis statement that appears at the bottom of this discourse.  As to the assertion of scientists in need of Congressional funding & Al Gore's approval, in their claim that there is heat from the burning of fossil fuels hidden in the oceans in mass quantities (or even in little quantities):

"That is super easy to prove as a total falsehood via ===>

1 - the oceans' Latent Heat of Vaporization Mechanism, followed by advection (wind transferring the heat horizontally, as opposed to vertically as happens in convection)

2- the 7,000-to-9,000 foot deep Aphotic Zone in every ocean (other than the Arctic and its 653 foot zone), along with the half-mile deep Dysphotic Zone in every ocean.

3- the absence of finding any pronounced, Godzilla-sized, ocean surface temperature "anomalies" that go beyond one season in time --- or even five days,

4- and tourists flocking to the oceans every Summer for the sake of the cool ocean breezes, along with tourists going on Love Boat type ocean cruises.  Not very many customer complaints there.  Simply ask the cruise-line operators.

There is a fifth observation:  It's the coastline real estate industry.  People are still buying shoreline property.  They have no buyer's remorse in any mass scale.  

The oceans are supposed to be relentlessly heating and the sea level is supposed to be elevating to a catastrophic height.  But, the real estate industry that deals in shorelines and oceanside residences have been doing robust business for decades.  The residents should have noticed something wrong by now, causing them to leave for inland property.  Seaside property has been a sign of prestige for decades.

The four predominate features can be called the Four Horsemen of Reality, assuring the reasonable person that there was no "carbon foot-printed Global Warming" filling any of the oceans during the Global Warming Hiatus of 1999 to 2016.  There simply was a stop in the increase of global atmospheric temperatures during that time span.   And there was fraud being committed by the people associated with the East Anglia office.  Yes, a roomful of scientists & politicians can easily be (or become) a den of thieves.

Seasons, Mathematics, and suspect data tampering

Now, a year might have a hot Summer, but not below-average Winter temps, meaning that four seasons might statistically balance each other.  Just because you have a hot Summer, it doesn't indicate temperature in the Mid-Troposphere.

Then comes sleight-of-hand reporting, instead the straight forward type.  A report might start with the end of Winter, claiming Winter to have ended higher than normal.  The average reader would assume that the entire Winter was higher than normal, when the fact in one specific case was that the rest of the Winter season made all of Winter colder than the year previous.  

All in all, there is this intolerable pea-and-shell game with the truth.  Government employees want to make the climate look in peril, so that their departments will get more Congressional funding.  In as much . . .

The only people who should be allowed to participate in a climate debate are those paid zero dollars and zero cents in any activities related to climate.  An individual highly paid by "carbon credit" commissions or government funding money has a conflict of interest that morally disqualifies him/her from the conversation.  Such an individual cannot be enabled to insert manipulative propaganda under the guise of scientific fact.  

Some of that manipulative propaganda involved "misplacing" data numbers and "graph shifting."  Thus, if you make money claiming that human activity causes catastrophic climate change, you're disqualified.  If you make money claiming that human activity does not do such a thing, then you too are disqualified.  

For the record, as of the time of this writing, September 25, 2022, I was never paid a penny for anything concerning this subject, this topic, this issue.  All of these 24 or 25 or 26 written climate discourses thus far have been one public service, done entirely for free.  I don't even get advertising fee commissions, at present ... and in the past.

Let us begin with the atmospheric science aspect of this issue: 

The United States National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration recognizes that ===>  

>Functionally Effective Sunlight does NOT penetrate the oceans any deeper than 656 feet.   This layer of ocean water is known as the Euphotic Zone.  From the 656 foot point downward, photosynthesis is impossible.  So, throughout an added depth of 2,624 feet (which is directly below the Euphotic Zone), the descending sunlight becomes increasingly darker.  The twilight layer of an ocean is the Dysphotic Zone, and its lowest depth is about a half mile from the ocean surface.   This means that a vast liquid area gets colder and colder as depth/descent continues. No Global Warming there.

>Below the Dysphotic Zone line there is no light at all, and this super deep chamber of ocean is called the Aphotic Zone.  It begins at the 3,280 feet mark below the ocean surface.  The Aphotic Zone is marked by darkness and 39F of cold, until one reaches the bottom of the ocean where "hot spot" volcanoes, aka hydrothermal vents, are the sum total of the ocean floors' heating system.  

The ocean floors are chemosynthesis country, where life abounds all-around these vents, with none of the organisms living on photosynthesis.  At the ocean floors, there still is darkness.

Remember, remember, remember:  CO2 has no heating power in the dark of the ocean, and it has insignificantly feeble power in the Dysphotic Zone of every ocean, proven by the coldness there.  Even at that, co2's heating power (which is a very minor role for the Earth's atmosphere) consists in "retaining" ("capturing") infrared light. As a solid and as a liquid, CO2 itself is actually used in the commercial world as a . . . refrigerant.  Welcome to the world of irony.

The questions that remain of heat in the oceans, which is not spreading into the more spacious cold areas of the oceans, are for exploratory research groups.  The questions would involve learning if there is any other feature from sunlight that would contribute to providing heat to the oceans.  

This would include Coronal Mass Ejections and the by-products of the solar wind, as in Alfven Waves and other cosmic undulations.  There is also the Chromosphere and Photosphere, in addition to the Sun's Corona.

Researching the Earth's Mantle wouldn't hurt, either.  None the less, it was completely fraudulent to have claimed that 70% of "man-made, fossil-fuel" heat was/is "soaked-up" by the oceans.  The vast cold of the oceans prove otherwise.  Time has illustrated that an office filled with scientists and politicians is often nothing more than a den of thieves ... and deliberate liars.

>Moreover, at the depth of 660 feet, directly below the Euphotic Zone, the ocean's Temperature drastically decreases, to approximately 55 degrees F (13C).  This spot in each ocean is called the Thermocline, and when traveling past this depth, the temperature decreases to approximately 39 degrees F (4C). 

This 39F is the temperature of the rest of each ocean ... throughout the descent to the ocean floors.  Incidentally, the ocean floor hydrovents exist where the tectonic plates of two continents are spreading apart, usually.  Their behavior is tamed, because of the massive weight of a massive ocean basin above.

Concerning the oceans' hydrostatic pressure, for every 33 feet of descent, the pressure increases by one Atmosphere.  One atmosphere is equal to 1,013 millibars.  This is 14.69 psi (pounds per square inch), and that's the standard atmospheric air pressure of the surface of the Earth, at sea level.

Sunlight's Shallow Reach

Then there is the matter of sunlight upon the ocean surfaces.  Not very much of it bounces off of the ocean surfaces and rockets back into outer-space.  It's the opposite of sunlight hitting snowscapes.  None the less, the existence of Specific Latent Heat of Vaporization is the heating system provided by the ocean, at its general surface area.  This mechanism very effectively rids the ocean's first layer of overly-accumulated heat.

Remember, sunlight does not rocket through any ocean, as it slowly degrades in intensity, until it reaches the 656 foot depth of any ocean.  That's not very much space for oceans that are 10,000+, 12,000+, and 13,000 feet in average depth.  And it's not very much at all, for the ocean trenches that dip to 28,000 and 35,000 foot depths.  Thus, it is a falsehood to claim that oceans are anywhere close to being the vast heat depositories that the European Union claimed.  

The surmise is that, when ocean temperatures do rise, they only slowly rise as a result of heat from the ocean floor ... from hydrothermal vents "aka hot spots" which can reach 700F.  This includes, as a source, the Earth's mantle seeping through tectonic plates that are in the slow process of sliding apart from each other.  

Everyone's Similar Personal Experience 

The author of this Blue Marble Album lived at the Atlantic Ocean's shoreline for the majority of 10 consecutive years.  There's one experience with the Summertime ocean that he noticed and took for granted.  It's the reason why so many people vacation at the ocean.  Very simply, it's the cool breezes coming from oceans during daylight that make oceans a preferred vacation destination.  It's like a really big fan operating in the distance.  It's quit nice, actually.

Likewise, the winds from the Atlantic during Wintertime were irritatingly chilly.   No bargain there.

The fact that so many people vacation at the ocean is evidence that the oceans weren't heating-up as apocalyptically as advertised.  The ocean was perceived as being a relief from the heat, by aspiring vacationers.

Concerning the author of this Blue Marble Album, every summer day at that particular Atlantic Shoreline was between 93F and 97F, with the temperature never reaching 100F and not very often being warmer than inland towns which did regularly reach and exceed 100F.  

Ten consecutive years of experience can assure you that there was no true increase in ocean temperatures being felt by any tourist or resident.  The temperature increases were only in the tampered government paperwork ... as in the "homogenized" temperature graphs of the NOAA.  That is to say that there was only an increase of ocean temperatures on paper, by those who made their money claiming that such temperature increases existed ... and claiming so, for an increase of taxpayer dollar allocations to the scientists' aforesaid department. 

Do you remember when the Pentagon officially stated that the Arctic Ocean stood a good chance of entirely melting at the end of each Summer, followed by the Russia Navy sailing through the Arctic, into Novia Scotia and New England, thereby invading and conquering America?  

Well, its managers wrote it, in the hopes to inspire the US Congress to give the US military increased government funding.  You see, after the Cold War, the US Congress decreased the military budget, and the Obama administration was portrayed as a peacetime presidency that was going to undo the Bush/Cheney war machine.  So, the US military decided to ... to ... to lie to the American taxpayers they swore to defend ... and to reach into the American taxpayers' pockets more deeply. 

Pycnocline

Concerning the rise in heat from the ocean floor, there is a line in each ocean called the Pycnocline.  It's like a gate that's not always locked.

               |               Ocean depths                        |constant 39F in Aphotic Zone|

Atlantic  |  avg ~12,881 ft \ deepest ~28,232 ft  \ Aphotic Zone depth ~ 9,601 ft

Pacific    | avg ~13,215 ft \ deepest  ~35,840 ft   \ Aphotic Zone depth ~ 9,915 ft

India       | avg ~13,002 ft \ deepest ~23,812 ft  \ Aphotic Zone depth ~ 9,702 ft

Arctic     | avg ~  3,953 ft \ deepest ~17,881 ft  \ Aphotic Zone depth ~    653 ft

Southern | avg ~10,728 ft \ deepest~ 25,383 ft  \ Aphotic Zone depth ~ 7,428 ft

Now, there was the matter of the 2018 "Resplendy-Keeling Paper," authored by Ralph Keeling's team and not by the Dr Charles Keeling of the 1950s.  It was actually called, the Resplandy Research Group Paper.  None the less, the 2018 paper claimed that oceans heated 60% more rapidly than previously realized.  The paper's subject matter was regarded as "startling," and the media heralded it as the smoking gun which absolutely proved the existence of a "climate crisis."  

Within two weeks of time, a mathematically inclined gentleman associated with a Georgia Tech atmospheric science professor discovered decisive mathematical errors in the Ocean Warming Paper.  This discovery negated the entire conclusion of the paper.  A Nicholas Lewis found the errors.  

In sequence, one of the 2018 paper's co-authors publicly admitted the errors, as did the prestigious publisher of the paper.  However, any retractions from the rest of the American media could not be located. 

None the less, at the outset of the study, it was obvious that the paper's thesis statement was a falsehood.  This is because it contradicted a well known scientific fact involving Seas Breezes and Land Breezes.  

Very simply, a change of temperature at any of the oceans is much more slowly accomplished than is the change of temperature at any land surface.  And being that there was no long-term (or even short-term) 60% rate increase in non-polar land surface temperatures anywhere, there surely would not be this phenomenon at the oceans.  Thus, the Keeling Paper (aka the Resplandy Paper) was guaranteed to be marked with error.

Moreover, the invalidated "peer reviewed" paper was contrary to the mechanism of the Specific Latent Heat of Vaporization which is explained in an introductory fashion below.  It involves atmospheric Heat Transfer.

Firstly, take a quick look at ::: Team Keeling & Publisher admit to decisive mathematical errors in doomsday paper

This too :::   Media Gave Blanket Coverage to Flawed Climate Paper 

Mathematician's Statement :::  Major Problem with Ocean Heat Uptake Paper 

The general rule is that ======> Planet Earth and its oceans are designed to proliferate the TRANSFER OF HEAT; and not to hoard heat. 

In addition:  No sunlight = No Infrared Light = No co2 absorbing infrared heat which would only have ended up in the middle latitudes via the Latent Heat of Vaporization Mechanism, anyway.

illustration of how far light travels in the ocean.

The reality is that the oceans are NOT vaults of co2-captured-heat or any other kind of heat coming from the atmosphere.  The oceans are liquid spring boards that create LATENT HEAT that turns into a vapor, while simultaneously rising out of the oceans, getting caught in a wind, and then traveling to the colder latitudes of Planet Earth, thereby accomplishing its mission of Heat Transfer.

The Latent Heat Mechanism of oceans" tropic & sub-tropic zones involves the RELEASE of heat ... not the absorption of it.   Obama was such a liar, in using the oceans as an excuse for the evident cessation of Atmospheric Global Warming,  and there surely was not any "ocean global warming."  Yet, President Goldman-Sachs Obama, the Drone Strike President, had to designate the key to all life-giving photosynthesis as a pollutant --- as an unwelcome nuisance instead of as the proliferation of life on Earth.

Obama owns a mansion at the Atlantic Coastline, within walking distance of the shoreline, three feet above sea level.  This is his message to the world that he did not believe in the assertion that catastrophic sea level rise was soon to prevail.  Yet, he preached this assertion as the decisive issue on Earth.

What Obama needed to acknowledge was that Nuclear Winter is far worse than Global Warming ever could be.

The Equilibrium Reflex of the Atmosphere

Remember, the atmosphere is always trying to achieve equilibrium, and that is what often causes turbulence and epic weather events to occur.  The attempt to balance-out the Earth's weather conditions, counter-intuitively enough, caused epic & tragic weather events.

The atmosphere of a planet, if it has one, is its gaseous envelope surrounding the planet.  The only part of the vast oceans of Earth which is part of the atmosphere is none other than . . . the latent heat which generates from it via vaporization. 

The oceans were being used as an excuse for the failure of the predictions of Jim Hansen, Michael Mann, Al Gore, John Kerry, and others who want the world to believe that a molecular compound that inhabits less than 1/2 of 1% of the atmosphere can control the other 99.95% of the same atmosphere, and then cause the world to heat itself into annihilation.  You've got to be kidding. 

The depth of the Aphotic Zone in the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic Oceans is 9,000+ feet.  The depth of the Southern Ocean's Aphotic Zone is 7,400 feet.  And finally, the depth of the Arctic Ocean's Aphotic Zone is 653 feet.  None of that part of the oceans is hoarding any increase in atmospheric heat, and that happens to be a massive amount of cubic area.  The oceans are not big tea pots.  They are only able to absorb and transport throughout its water basins the heat that comes from the Earth's mantle, via sliding tectonic plates.  

Incidentally, recent scientific discoveries concluded that the heat which ended the Major Ice Age, aka the last Glacial Maximum, came from the bottom of the oceans and eventually made its way into the Earth's Atmosphere.  The length of time that it took for this allocation of heat to occur was said ... by the research crew ... to have taken 1,300 years of rising ... from the oceans.

Concerning this, a pertinent rule goes as follows: 

Firstly, before the Public School System stopped teaching students how to think with numbers & sequential logic, it was commonly known that it takes 100 calories to elevate the temperature of 1 gram of water from its freezing point to its boiling point.  

~Well, it takes 533 or so calories (2230-2235 joules) to turn a gram of water at 100 degrees Celsius to a gram of vapor at 100 degrees Celsius. It takes much more energy to vaporize something than to melt it.  That's the essence of Latent Heat, and that seems very logical in a science that often seems very counter-intuitive. 

The Number 1 implication of this scientific axiom is that the oceans do NOT have the surplus of caloric energy needed to be hoarding the insane amount of heat that the Barrack Obamas of this world, the Resplendys of this world, the Bill Nyes of this world, and the Keelings of this world claimed that it was hoarding.   The Global Warming Pause of 1999 to 2016 was 100% real ... 100%  true ... 100% authentic.  Period.  

Incidentally, it takes 80 calories of latent heat dispersion to turn a solid like ice into a liquid like water . . . per gram, of course.

There is also the matter of Latent Heat of Condensation:  That's the released heat that turns vapor into liquid ... as when atmospheric water vapor becomes morning dew.  On land, water vapor is affected by lowered nighttime temperatures, resulting in dew being seen in the morning.

Latent heat is released heat that does NOT change the temperature of the material involved.  The released heat only changes the STATE (aka the PHASE) of the material/substance involved.  When measuring condensation, it's basically the Latent Heat of Vaporization with a negative sign placed in front of the number.  Vaporization and condensation have an inverse relationship, as do two things known as:

Sublimation and Deposition.

Sublimation is when a solid turns into a gas without first becoming a liquid.  Deposition is when a gas becomes a solid without first becoming a liquid.  So stated for the record.  For a solid such as ice to turn into vapor, without first turning into liquid, 720 calories is required ... per gram.  Sunlight can provide this. 

Incidentally, Latent Heat activity achieves the objective of loosening molecular bonds within a substance/material, thereby widening inter-molecular space within.  After all, a solid is tight, and a gas is loose

In as much, you studying "the latent heat of the vaporization of water" (for starters) will take you out of the dark.  

The following educational video might help:  Latent Heat Tutorial

This educational video might seem more clear to you:  FuseSchool: Specific Latent Heat

The bottom line is that there is a difference between the Heat of Vaporization and Temperature per se (Sensible Heat).  The heat of vaporization has a mission of turning water into a vapor which will end up in the colder latitudes of Planet Earth.  This is the foundation of the Transfer of Heat throughout the spherical Earth.

Temperature-Per-Se (sensible heat), on the other hand, is mostly understood as a steady state routine, especially as it applies to ocean water, being that land temperatures change more rapidly than any ocean water does.   

Q: And why does ocean water temperature change more slowly?

ANS 1:  Air is more flexible than water.

ANS 2:  The pressure remains predominately unchanged in its predictable rate of increase and decrease with ocean water level; much like the adiabatic rate with air temperature.  Water pressure only changes by the change of location downward or upward. Air pressure changes come to you.  This includes the arrival of hurricanes.  Air pressure can become intensely turbulent ... not by the increase in pressure, but by the decreasing of it.  Deadly hurricanes are low pressure systems.

Both water and air pressure follow the rule of the Coriolis Effect, however.  Concerning water, it's called Eckman Transport, and it travels downward in the ocean like an angular spiral staircase.

BTW, there is a difference between steam and boiling water. The only similarity between the two is that neither one is occurring at the oceans' surfaces, as John Kerry & Barrack Obama would want you to believe.

The Heat of vaporization sounds more active and energetic. In contrast, temperature per se (Sensible Heat) preserves something.  Meanwhile, the heat of vaporization changes something.  Thus, a steady state temperature of the ocean is the science of statics, while the heat of vaporization is the science of dynamics. 

Q: Now, why are ocean vapors instinctively traveling to the temperate zones, above the Tropics?  

ANS:  In both Hemispheres, from the Latitude 40 degrees to the Pole, more heat exits Planet Earth's atmosphere into outer-space than enters the Earth's atmosphere from the same outer-space . . . 24 hours a day, seven days a week.  Ocean vapor travel is the natural attempt to equalize the Earth's atmospheric temperature throughout the planet.  It prevents a snowball Earth.

The hue of the coldest January in 40 years, by Patrick Anthony Pontillo

In Review:

If the aforementioned zipped over your head and you failed to understand the point made, take note of the following: 

During the Obama Years, there was the Global Warming Pause ... the Hiatus.  Well, pro-Al Gore scientists ... in search of lucrative government funding ... used the oceans as an excuse for the Global Atmospheric Temperature Pause.  Those scientists claimed that Planet Earth was still heating-up in an unending progression of time, and that the increase of heat was being absorbed by the oceans.  That is super easy to prove as a total falsehood via 

1 - the oceans' Latent Heat of Vaporization Mechanism which mostly is the driver in changing phases of substances from liquid to vapor, when it comes to the oceans. 

2- the vast Aphotic Zones in every ocean, 

3- the absence of finding any pronounced, Godzilla-sized, ocean surface temperature "anomalies" that go beyond one season in time,

4- and tourists flocking to the oceans every Summer, along with tourists going on ocean cruises, as in Love Boat type scenarios.  Not very many customer complaints are there.  Simply ask the cruise-line operators.

The four features assured the reasonable person that there was no "carbon foot-printed Global Warming" filling any of the oceans during the Global Warming Hiatus of 1999 to 2016.  There simply was a stop in the increase of global atmospheric temperatures during that time span.   And there was fraud being committed by the people associated with the East Anglia office.  Yes, a roomful of scientists can easily be (or become) a den of thieves --- as in Theft of Deception, especially when they alter the 1990s graphs to make the early 1920s look like the coldest years of the century, when the truth is that 1921 was the year of the great meltdown ... or else "melt pulse."  And 1922 was Heat Wave City, also.  1923 was no cool-down either.

The cessation in atmospheric temperature rise is the reason why the East Anglia scientists and pro-Al Gore people changed the name of "Global Warming" to "Climate Change."  The fact that the title, Global Warming, was changed to, Climate Change, is evidence that the scientists knew that there was NO GLOBAL WARMING from 1999 to 2016.  Such persons are known as frauds, and anyone who accepts money based on a fraud is known as a thief.  There are remedies in civilization for theft, especially Grand Larceny.  Do the math herein.

Now, various agencies claim that the oceans have great capacities to hold heat, especially "man-made" industrial heat.  This makes it sound as if the heat remains in the oceans for decades.  Well, whatever heat does find its way to the ocean surface quickly gets jetted out into the air via the Latent Heat of Vaporization Mechanism.  

Thus, if the oceans were holding tremendous amounts of man-made heat, then we all would have noticed it in atmospheric temperature "anomaly" rises that remained constant, and not merely being something seasonal --- such as Summertime.  Record cold weather was repeatedly being experienced, from Australia to Niagara Falls, and from Brazil to Nova Scotia, as of recent.

Look at it this was:  Simply because a cop wears a badge, it doesn't mean that he is a just & honest man, especially as was the case in the American Segregation South, in 20th Century South Africa, in Nazi Germany, in Latin American dictatorships, in Leopold's Belgian colonies, in the Court of Oyer (Salem witch trials), and in the good old USSR.  Likewise, simply because a guy is wearing a lab coat, it doesn't make him honest, especially when he is in dire need of Congressional funding, or NGO donations, or even grass-roots donations.  

People have lied to gain power and money, whether they succeeded in their attempts or not.  Look at Peter the Great's sister, for example ... and thousands of other people.  Sometimes the lying occurred with a badge or a lab coat or a crown.  Scientists need to be vetted and audited.

All in all, other things trigger hurricanes ... not the molecular compound which inhabits less than 1/2 of 1% of the Earth's Atmosphere and which has a night-light's radiative forcing of 3.7 watts per meter squared.  CO2 does NOT drive the other 99.95% of Planet Earth's atmosphere.  

Now, if you insist that greenhouse gases trigger turbulent weather, then you must concede that the only greenhouse gas that has any power do to such a thing is WATER VAPOR only.   CO2 is NOT the Big Bad Wolf.  It's Plant Nectar ... plant food ... plant fertilizer.  CO2 is Pygmalion giving life to a sculpture, on a molecular scale.

None the less, the answer to Barrack Obama, as he sits in his oceanside mansion, is this:  

If the oceans were hoarding the heat that was absent from the atmosphere during the 1999 to 2016 era, then there was no Heat Transfer occurring throughout Planet Earth, being that the oceans were sitting on the heat.  If there had been no Heat Transfer occurring between 1999 and 2016, then the Great Lakes would have been turned into glaciers ... for starters.  

Then there would have been the matter of Lake Champlain, the Hudson Bay, the Boston River, the Allegheny River, the Ohio River, the Missouri River, the Snake River, the Colorado River, as well as Niagara Falls.   In general, it would have been Ice Cube City.  Therefore Barrack, you are a liar.  Typical for a politician sitting in a seaside mansion.

March 3, 2025

Let's Compare the 19th Century heat map data to that of the 21st Century

Okay now, the 19th Century was supposed to have been a time of much cooler temperatures, due to lower atmospheric co2 levels.  The 21st Century has repeatedly been reported to be a co2-fueled sauna of death.  Sometimes --- but only sometimes --- the temperatures were honestly reported by the general & generic journalists who market sensationalistic hype.  But, that which was very DISHONESTLY reported was the claim that never before had such a temperature or such an amount of rainfall or such a windspeed ever occurred.

The truth is that "it" has all been done before.  "It" refers to the "main weather event" being reported by the non-meteorologists who are not articulate in explaining "the science."  "It" is the climate activists' "star of the weather show," presented to the viewing public, to create fear and insecurity.  

"It" is the "excuse" that the climate hysteria faction uses to claim the existence of a new era which now warrants them to takeover all governments and rule mankind through the U.N.  New York City then becomes the capitol of the world.  This is the mindset of the generation raised on TV, video games, and the cell phone.  The Great Outdoors is a concept entirely foreign to the vast majority of them.

This is a July 1896 newspaper edition, when atmospheric co2 was 126 ppm LOWER than it is today.  It looks like the 2022 and 2023 news.  This is one of many pieces of evidence which show that climate hasn't changed its pattern in the past 127 years.  Concerning any weather event reported in the past thirty years --- and even in the past 130 years ago --- "it" has all been done before.  Climate is a cyclical rollercoaster, and co2 will NOT cause the world to end at any time within the next 400 years.

Climate is properly defined as the "Prevailing Long-term Weather Trend."  Two-week heatwaves --- or three-week heatwaves --- that come in occasional clusters of time throughout a continent, do NOT define the climate.  There are the other 49-50 weeks in each year to consider, as well.  

In 2023, there was record cold and record snow throughout Planet Earth.  Drought-ridden dams were refilled as if a fairy godmother visited the American West with a heavy duty wand.  Maine even had cryoseisms which were actually reported by media outlets as famous as the Washington Post.  However, this will NOT be reported by any Climate Hysteria Network any time soon.

BTW, cryoseisms are frostquakes which happen to occur when already-existing underground water freezes and expands, thereby causing tremors.  

No appreciable, crisis-stage sea level rise here.  This wide beach is a part of Eastern Florida where exists a lot of dry and sandy walking space.  Great for joggers in training.  No expanding waters here.
At this point, look at the Univ of Maine's Reanalyzer map for the JULY temperature average of the Year 2015.  This is the most recent year thus far made available to the public.  We can't review anything more recent, unless you want to use the ECMWF data.   

ECMWF stands for European Center for MEDIUM-RANGE Weather Forecasts.  It's data does not go beyond 1950; 73 years ago,  This subject involves a time span of 170 years.  So, the CIRES one will work.  It's based out of the Univ of Colorado and it stands for Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences.

None the less, the rule is to NEVER switch data sets midway through a timeline analysis.  It results in the apples & oranges effect.  Such a thing will result in a false graph line or chart reading or table summary.  It's very dishonest to do such a thing.

Below is the reanalyzer map for July of 2015 and also 1845.  In 1845, the atmospheric co2 level was 284 parts per million (ppm).  In 2015, the co2 level was 401.1   This amounts to a 117 part per million difference between 1845 and 2015.

The Year 1845 was selected for people not natural at math.  It's easy to see that 2015 minus 1845 = a 170 year difference.  None the less, 1845 was the start of the Great Famine which later became the Irish Potato Famine.  Three years later would come Europe's greatest revolution thus far; even greater than the events of July 1789, and only to be exceeded in size and impact by the 1870 revolts.   Moreover, the Little Ice Age had recently ended, approximately in 1840 or so.  And of course, the Little Ice Age began with the arrival of the Wolf Solar Minimum.  This was in 1284 or so.  So, 1845 would be a fitting year to use in this example.

In addition, America had a drought between 1856 and 1865.  So, those years are slanted in terms of finding a suitable average year.  Thus, using 1865 isn't prudent, even though it is an exact 150 year difference from 2015.  And yes, the entire American Civil War was fought during a drought.

According to the Al Gore Theory of Climate, it should have been a whole lot hotter in 2015 than it was in 1845.  This is because there is 117 ppm more of co2 in the atmosphere today than there was in 1845.  Well then, let's look at the reanalysis maps and compare.  And remember, for the 19th Century temperature conclusion to be credible, proxy evidence --- even from third party sources --- is needed, to confirm the validity of the map.  Thermometer stations were a rare commodity in South America, Africa, and parts of Asia in the 19th Century and prior.  Proxy evidence is already explained at this Blue Marble Album.

Upon looking at both maps, your immediate response should be, "What's the difference?"  Actually, there is one moderate difference and a handful of slight differences.  Therefore, it's NOT the same one map being used twice.

As far as goes the one instance of a moderate difference, it was cooler in Northwestern Russia and in the Kara Sea area . . . in July of 2015.  Yes, that's correct.  The temperature in Northwestern Russia was higher in July of 1845 than it was in July of 2015 . . .  according to Maine's Reanalyzer technology.  Now, this applies to JULY only.

We shall now take a referee's time-out for those Climate Doom Fanatics who are undergoing convulsions.  At this point, their only rebuttal is to claim that the reanalyzer is a complete fraud.  When they recover, they can view the average annual temperature maps below.  Those maps are of the Years 1845 and 2015, of course.  

In this instance, Northwestern Russia and the Scandinavian nations were cooler (on the average) for the entire year of 1845 than they were in the entire year of 2015.  However, both maps look very much similar, concerning the remaining landmasses and water regions of Planet Earth.   Thus, there hasn't been that much of a change in the climate in the past 170 years, except for intervals of turbulence ... or "blocking systems."  The Climate Change campaign is merely a con game, to get large sums of taxpayer dollars and NGO donations into the hands of less-than-honest people.

This example shows you that the mainstream media has been lying to you, in claiming that Planet Earth has become a Climate Armageddon, with massively different temperatures between today and the 19th Century.  Thus, the media's Climate Hysteria is an insult to human intelligence.  It also shows why the television used to be called "the Boob Tube."  In the 1960s, a boob was an idiot ... a buffoon.  

All in all, climate and weather is far more involved than the simpleton version taught by Al Gore.  And "severe weather events" are based on one thing; TURBULENCE.  Turbulence comes and goes.  Thus, the climate is a cyclical roller coaster.

BTW, at the top lefthand corner of the maps is "2m."  This means the temperature at two meters above the ground.


Now for the true reason why 1845 and 2015 don't appear to be very different, in terms of temperature:

As far as goes Greenhouse Gases, they were mostly the same in 1845 as they are today.  This is because co2 doesn't come close to being the Number 1 Greenhouse Gas.  And methane is in a distant third place.  You see, the most abundant Greenhouse Gas today is WATER VAPOR.  It constitutes 90% of all greenhouse gases, by volume.  And of course, volume deals with taking-up-space.  Thus, the Number 1 Greenhouse Gas in the sky is, by far, WATER VAPOR.  There was as much water vapor in 1845 --- for the most part --- as there is today.

Water Vapor is the only Greenhouse Gas of Planet Earth that carries any weight --- that proverbially pulls rank --- that keeps Planet Earth from becoming a perpetual 0.0 degrees Fahrenheit ... (-17.78 degrees Celsius.)  CO2 is chump change, compared to Water Vapor, in the capture of infrared light.  Cirrus Clouds retain more infrared light than does co2, and the great irony is that cirrus clouds are all ice.  High floating ice does retain heat, for Planet Earth.

Your environmental mission for this era is NOT co2, being that co2 is your friend.  Your mission is that of freeing live beings from the ingestion, the absorption, and the inhalation of synthetic chemicals & irritants.  This includes the PFAS class, as well as the sensitizers, clastogens, carcinogens, etc.  Included in the mission is stopping the irresponsible handling of plastics.  Add PM2.5, concerning outdoor pollution.  Mercury needs monitored near coal-burning power plants, by the way.

In this type of environmental challenge the order of the day is to reinvent filtration science.  Filtration, filtration, filtration.  An example is the catalytic converter.  Ironically, charcoal is a great filter.  Some of the greatest findings in life are counter-intuitive.

March 2, 2025

In 2024, CO2 rose to a record high level, under Joe Biden & KAMALA.

 Kamala's Greatest Asininity, in terms of foolishness

🌎Kamala Harris' greatest asininity is that she and Joe imposed all sorts of Draconian "Climate" measures upon America, only for it all to result in the HIGHEST LEVEL OF ATMOSPHERIC CO2 IN HUMAN HISTORY, as of May 2024.  

It reached 426.9 parts per million (ppm).  As of Oct 13th, 2024, the co2 count was down to 422.25 ppm.  When it's harvest season, the co2 count diminishes from Springtime planting season.  The difference between Planting-season CO2 and Harvest-season CO2 is about 4 parts per million.

It's granted that the human body can easily take four times the amount of CO2 found in today's atmosphere ... without any adverse reactions.  Adverse reactions are expected at 3,500 parts per million for anyone not a submarine crew member.  Some sources say that irritation symptoms start at 2,000 ppm.  Fair enough.  None the less, death will occur at 84,000 ppm, after an hour's exposure of CO2.   Thus, there's a huge difference between 84,000 ppm ... 3,500 ppm  ... 2,000 ppm ... and today's outdoor CO2, at 422 ppm.  

Therefore, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Michael Mann, and John Kerry are pretenders & failures who wasted tons of American taxpayer dollars, causing the price of fuel and food to sky-rocket.  The curtailing of the oil SUPPLY caused the sky-rocketing prices.

BTW, the atmospheric CO2 count on air-compressed Venus and on very cold Mars is over 900,000 ppm.  Moreover, the compressed air factor is what makes Venus hot; not CO2.  After all, the 900,000+ ppm of CO2 on Mars surely didn't make it hot.  So, do the math on this one.   The Russians have been on Venus, and provided some invaluable information, even though the Russian landing crafts and monitor systems didn't last very long on Venus.  Those vehicles got crushed, due to the compressed air at surface level ... literally.

Today's indoor CO2  on Planet Earth is said ... in the official readouts ... to be between 600 ppm and 1,000.  Okay.  But, 1,200, 1,400, and even 1,700 is fine.   Greenhouse operators purposely insert co2, being that it truly does make the world go green.  So, 1200 to 1600 ppm is to be expected in greenhouses.

Of course, there is the matter of C3 plants, C4 plants, and a substance called Rubisco, in relation to the atmospheric CO2.  The University of Illinois explained this well.  So, feel free to learn from the Univ of Illinois People.

       🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃


  🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃

Reducing CO2 will NOT make society "go green."  It will cause the opposite effect.  Instead of concentrating on CO2, society must address mercury, fly ash, lead, arsenic, beryllium, and the glut of synthetic chemicals that were allowed to flood humanity like a plague of locusts.  This is where Robert F Kennedy Jr enters the scene ... to champion the cause against flooding humanity with synthetic chemicals.

The first CO2 overload symptom that was clinically found was the inability to perform decision-making.  This was at 3,500 ppm.  The exceptions were the submarine crew men of the US Navy who did NOT have impaired thinking, at all.  I have nothing on Russian submarine crewmen, though.

In addition, it's furthermore granted that there was an Ice Age when the CO2 count was nine times higher than today, due to probability that "Symmetric Stretch" vibrational mode of CO2 took precedence at the time.  Of course, it is that particular vibrational mode that makes CO2 incapable of retaining infrared heat ... even today.  There are three vibrational modes of CO2, and they were already explained here, at the Blue Marble Album.  There's a search engine up top and to the right of this page.

Moreover, the CO2 level needs to be 199 times higher than today's outdoor level, for it to be deadly.  Now, as far as concerns today, there is the matter of China and India constructing a notable number of coal-burning power plants.  This, alone, is the cause of the drastic rise in CO2.  

Now, I can post the chartings which show that CO2 emissions have been lowered in America, Europe, and elsewhere in the past decade.  However, if you were to evaporate all of the Americas and Europe, the rise in CO2 would stay on pace, due to China & India, in their coal-fired power plants.  Kamala, Joe, Michael Mann, and John Kerry failed at being diplomats, when it came to convincing China and India to change over to an alternative energy source.
0.042% of Planet Earth's atmosphere is CO2.  78% Nitrogen.  21% Oxygen.  0.93% Argon.


Even though humans can easily tolerate four times the amount of CO2 in today's atmosphere, the Earth's outdoor co2 level still reached the highest point in human history ... as of 2024, three and a half years after Kamala & Joe Biden assured us all that being Draconian will reduce the CO2 count.  However, it's more important to deplete from the air mercury, cadmium, beryllium, lead, fly ash, and other less than healthy airborne molecular substances.  

CO2 is your friend.  Most of the other chemicals which emit from coal are not your friends.   This includes mercury.  In as much, the Number 1 objective for environmentalists is filtration, filtration, filtration.  As far as goes CO2, the only concern would be the rate of increase in its presence.  So, the Chinese and India coal-fired power plants require lots of diplomacy and incentive.

🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙


🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

The other asininity of Joe, Kamala, and the Mainstream media is that the recent weather events have previously happened 9, 12 and even 24 times before, in the past 150 years ... depending on the specific weather event.  There is nothing new, and there is no crisis outside of the glut of synthetic chemicals flooding the airspace and water supply used by Planet Earth's inhabitants. 

Some weather intervals are nice.  Some weather intervals are tragic.  And some other weathers events were caused by volcanoes, being that volcanoes cause the temperature to decrease in large affected geographic areas of Earth.  From volcanoes come sulfur dioxide.  Sulfur dioxide in the air is like tiny mirrors, reflecting sunlight back into outer space.  This causes cooling.  In the past, this has destroyed certain civilizations which then needed to rebuild.

When the CO2 Count was very low, the following natural disasters occurred, proving Michael Mann & the aged David Attenborough to have been long-term LIARS, in their claim that the weather was mild for a thousand years:

There was  -the 1034 & 1048 Yellow River Floods.  -the 1091 London Tornado.  -the All Saint's Day Flood of 1170.  -Kubla Khan's two 13th Century fleet disasters (at the beginning of the Little Ice Age).  -the St. Lucia Day Flood of 1287 (also at the beginning of the Little Ice Age).  

And then, when the Little Ice Age was well underway, as the CO2 level remained low in the atmosphere, the following disasters occurred ... and those disasters CANONT be attributed to the outdoor CO2 level of Planet Earth:

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

-the Great Famine of 1315-1322.  -the Black Monday Hail Storm that killed 1,000 British soldiers, in 1360.  -De Grote Mandrenke of 1362.  -Britain's Bitterly Cold Winter of 1407, when birds froze to death in flight.  -St. Elizabeth's Flood in 1421.  -the Great Tudor Drought of 1540-41.  -the Spanish Armada disaster of 1588.  -the Super Famines of the 1590s.  -the 1607 Bristol Channel Floods.  -the Great Frost of 1683-84.  -the Great Tempest of 1703.  -La Grand Hiver of 1709. and the list goes on.   Incidentally, the coldest winter in the past 500 years for Europe was 1708-09.  This was before the start of the Industrial Age.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

This claim of one thousand years of mild weather was the most dishonest & asinine thing that was ever claimed by Michael Mann ... and by the non-factual David Attenborough.  This was especially the case with the depth of the Little Ice Age, when sunspot activity got to the point of being effectually dormant.  The years of the least amount of sunspot activity went from 1645 to 1710.  

The entire Little Ice Age, itself, went from 1284 to 1840.  It started with the Wolfe Minimum and ended shortly before the European Potato Famine which changed the destiny of Ireland.  Incidentally, the HERB-1 strain of the phytophthora infestans came out of Mexico, and when it became warm enough for it to survive in Northern Europe, it found its way into potatoes and even tomatoes there.  Instantly, potatoes were native to PERU, and not to Ireland.

Climate is like a cyclical roller coaster, when it's not being affected by volcano blasts.  As of recent, there has only been climate fraud in existence, done for the sake of deceiving the American taxpayer into not objecting to shelling-out an outrageously high amount of money to certain scientists, to certain NGOs, and to certain government agencies.

Example of the Bid Lie which states that the storm seasons have never been like the recent ones:

There are years in the distant past when there were as many cyclones on the North Atlantic Ocean as there were in 2023.  Plus, in recent years, it has only been a matter of more low-level cyclones, called Tropical Storms.  There is not any trend .... or any appearance ... of the Cat 6 hurricane out there.  In fact, only four Cat 5 hurricanes ever hit the US, since 1851.  There were uniquely powerful hurricanes in the past, such as in the early 1960s in the Pacific Ocean.  But, there has been no long-term repetitive trend.

Now, look at the two US government illustrations below.  One is of Hurricane Season 2023, and the other one is of Hurricane Season 1933.  The Year 1933 was 90 year prior to 2023, when the co2 count was 112 parts per million lower than today.  Both 2023 and 1933 had twenty storms.  1933 had 6 MAJOR hurricanes, and 2023 only had three.  The total deaths ... due to cyclones ... in 1933 was 651.  The number of cyclone-caused deaths in 2023 was only 21.

In addition, the only reason why there is more hurricane infrastructure damage today than in the 1920s, 1940s, and even 1960s is because there are far more buildings and homes situated along coastlines vulnerable to hurricanes.  Human population increased.  So too did human dwellings and places of business.   

You and the rest of America ... as well as Europe ... are being deceived hideously, by Kamala, Joe, the mainstream media, etc.  Playing Chicken Little and crying out, "the sky is falling," is very profitable.  Con artistry is profitable ... when there is no one to proverbially blow the whistle and toss a penalty flag in the air.  

The con artists' technique in shutting you down is done by calling you a denier.  But, the truth of the matter is in historical texts.  Some of those texts are called newspapers.  

Example: 1921 ands 1922 were reported at the time as the hottest years ever, next to 1911, 1905, 1901, and 1895.  Well, the hockey stick graph that Al Gore presented in his first movie marks 1921 & 1922 as the coldest years in hundreds of years.  Numerous newspaper articles and government records ... and ship records ... prove the hockey stick graph to be a fraud.

Here is your test

Can you tell which government illustration below is Hurricane Season 2023 and which one is Hurricane Season 1933 without cheating?   Once again, the 1933 Hurricane Season = 6 major hurricanes.  The 2023 Hurricane Season = 3 major hurricanes.  The 1933 Hurricane Season = 651 deaths.  The 2023 Hurricane Season =  21 deaths.  Have fun with your Reality Check.  

And remember, both years had 20 storms each.   In 1933, the co2 count was 309 parts per million.  In 2023, the atmospheric co2 count was 421 parts per million.  In 1933, the co2 count was 112 parts per million LESS THAN in 2023.  Yet, 1933 hosted as many North Atlantic Ocean cyclones as did the recent Year of 2023.  CO2, in itself, gives no significant changes.  CO2 gives only minor temp changes in a laboratory setting.

As I said long ago, and as RFK, Jr said via his litigation & courtroom experience, the great environmental crisis of today is the glut of synthetic chemicals that have flooded humanity's air space, water supply, construction material, lawn furniture, clothing,  AND FOOD.   Moreover, the true greenhouse gas to dread is Sulfur Hexaflouride.  If this becomes commonplace, then and only then, WILL Planet Earth's atmosphere be in trouble.

Concerning the wrecking of the American Economy in the name of lowering atmospheric CO2, Kamala couldn't even get that task correct.  Well, she did wreck the economy ... with Joe Biden ... but she did not lower atmospheric CO2 which only exists at much much less than 1/2 of one percent in the atmosphere, at 421 or so ppm.  That is an exceptionally low level, objectively speaking.  Thus, it was fraud to orchestrate the "Carbon Footprint Scare."  The atmosphere today is already 99+% carbon free. 

For illustrative purposes, know this:  Today CO2 comprises 1/2,369th of the atmosphere.  That is ONE over two thousand, three hundred, and sixty-ninth of the air outside.  That's also  0.042% of the atmosphere outdoors.  422 ppm is quite low, when compared to Nitrogen which is 780,000 part per million in the sky ... and Oxygen which is 210,000 part per million in the same sky.

And concerning the tragedy of Tennessee, Georgia, etc, as of Sept 2024, when people are unprepared ... and when people are stubborn ... death ensues.  And of course, a Tennessee employer refused to let its employees leave work early, in time to avoid the flooding rains.  Some of the employees died.  In the South, there is the motto, "I'm gonna do what I damn please," which is the motto of the Church of Satan.  Stubbornness kills.  Plus, Biden and Harris did not show-up soon enough with their agencies, etc.

One more thing:  Climate is average weather.  If something only happens once every 20, 40, and 60 years, it's not climate.  The media uses a lot of hype to get you to submit to their associated politicians.  The mainstream media lies for certain politicians. 

None the less, there are 63 or so Climate Discourses at the Blue Marble Album.  Those people who are absolutely certain that we are in a Climate Crisis only read trickles of literature.  Concerning this, only after you read all 63 or so of the Climate Discourses here, then you can talk to me ... if you have no conflict of interest.  A conflict of interest exists if you make outrageously large sums of money selling the Climate Crisis Hysteria.    Samples of Blue Marble Work include:






Or or or, you let me first give you ... in front of a camera ... a simple 15 question oral exam on simple Weather Theory, to prove if whether or not you are a fraud who knows nothing about Atmospheric Physics and/or Weather Theory.    

If you fail, the video goes on YouTube, for the world to see what a fraud you are.  In as much, is Kamala willing to do this?  Tim Walz?  Numerous mainstream media news anchors? 

A completely different person can ask her the questions.  But, it must be an oral exam with zero cheat sheets and NO teleprompter.  Or is it that Kamala fears that the world will see that she a complete fraud in yet another subject?  Oh, in reality she is a total fraud in that particular subject, and I can easily prove it, if given the opportunity.    

Kamala speaks of Opportunity Economics.  She does not speak of Opportunity Climate Science ... or Opportunity Talking-things-out.  It's obvious that she's hiding the apparent observation that she doesn't know anything about anything outside of her professional trade.   

Concern her cliche, "Opportunity Economy," as if it's new idea:

For decades on commercial television, at the end of many commercial, there would be the following statement: So-and-so is an equal opportunity employer.  Every school and company was required to be an equal opportunity employer.  That statement was redundant. None the less,  Kamala was already caught committing plagiarism over two dozen times, in one book alone.  Well, her "Opportunity Economy" is a plagiaristic rip-off of 1970s television.

When it comes to explaining bonding in Criminal Procedural Law, she sounds like she knows what she's talking about.  When it comes to her talking about anything else, she's clueless and only pretends to be concurrent with the subject at hand.   She basically knows one trade well.  She needn't act like a memory of any High IQ society.  She is very fake, and she lies.

And she continues to tell blatant lies.  Example:  She very falsely said that Trump has no plan.  Super Big Lie.  Donald Trump already was a very successful president in three of his four years as president.  He had a plan as president, and it did succeed.  Millions witnessed it.

Kamala is nothing more than a liar, and she is clueless in every subject except her own professional trade.  There is nothing remarkable about her that she should even be a senator or House rep or governor.  I already went into detail about her, and I can go further into detail.  But, I have to go and fix something ten miles away that just broke.  Later maybe.   Even at that, why do I have to waste my time on her.  She is utterly worthless at best, and she's a living nightmare at worst.  Trace her recent history.

Concerning history, observe the most powerful hurricane seasons.  Now, one would expect all of them to have occurred when the CO2 level rose above 400.  Not at all..  Amongst the most powerful hurricane seasons were ones that ruled the Autumn Atlantic in 1933, 1893, 1926, 1950, and 1961 ... when the atmospheric CO2 level was quite low.  This alone proves that CO2 is NOT the driver of climate.


Above:  Take note that this list includes low co2 years, along with high co2 years.  Thus, there is no correlation between co2 levels and hurricane energy forces.  ACE means Accumulated Cyclone Energy.

Concerning high energy years                                                  The low energy years were
The Low co2 years included  1893, 1926, 1933.                2015, 2014, 2013, 2009, 2007, 2006,        Mid-level co2 years included 1950, 1961, 1995, 1998.           2002, 1997, 1994, 1993, 1991, 1987,          The high co2 years included  2004,  2005, 2017.                     1986,  1983, 1982, 1978, 1977, 1973,
                                                                                                  1972,  1970, 1968, 1962, 1956, 1946, etc. 

The Year 2010 receives an Honorable Mention as powerful hurricane year, at 165.  And as far as concerns 2024, Beryl was a monster, carrying an Accumulated cyclone Energy measurement of 35.1  Milton was powerful, but nowhere near Beryl, at 23.5.  Helene, on the other hand was relatively low in energy, at 7.1.  Its nightmare existed in the fact that a precursor rain was in the Asheville area, before Helene passed through.  None the less, six of the thirteen 2024 cyclones has an A.C.E under 5.  Some where under 2.  So, the claim of Al Gore, in asserting that future hurricanes would be a series of Car 6 cyclones was a false prophecy ... false scientific prediction ... far away from reality. 


None the less, this happened previously to Asheville, in 1916.  The French Broad River crested at 17 feet above flood stage, and the width of at river expanded to 1,300 feet.  It was normally at 380.  Eighty people died.  Thus, history repeats itself and climate is cyclical.  In fact, cyclones are cyclical, always rotating counter-clockwise when in the Northern Hemisphere, due to the Coriolis Effect.  

Moreover, there were apocalyptic weather disasters in the early 20th Century, the 19th, 18th 18th, and even 14th century.  For example, England lost one-third of its Imperial Navy in the Great Storm of 1703.  This was before the Industrial Revolution even began.   

View the cyclones of the 1600s which were recorded ... logged.  And remember, this was before the industrial revolution, when the CO2 count was  lower than it was in the Year 1000, at 275 ppm.


Anyone who says that the storms today are stronger than in centuries past is completely full of crap and is an egregious liar ... like Tim Walz ... like the plump and not-at-all macho Tim Walz.  

BTW, the guy looks like the Pillsbury Doughboy.  Yet, the media is full of male-haters who are intimidated by real men.  So, they showcase as the quintessential males of masculine excellence two totally dweebo, nerdo, geeko jokes.  And you know who they are. 

As far as goes Asheville and Vicinity in 2024, here are the rain stats:

Busick --------------- 30.78 inches      The FEMA response has been a vicious form of an SNL skit.
Spruce Pine ---------- 24.12 inches       Vice President Kamala Harris is a vicious form of SNL skit.
Hendersonville ------- 21.96 inches         Existence does not end with MSNBC, ABC, CNN, & CBS.

An about-the-author page would dispel any prejudice, disrespect, or distrust

© Patrick Anthony Pontillo 
The reason for the creation of the Blue Marble Album was this:   Americans were being hideously deceived by power grabbers who obviously thought that Americans were the most stupid and gullible people on Earth.  A prime example was seen in the majority of Americans believing in the non-existent Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction.  And of course, this was not the only con game orchestrated by Americans in political and/or financial and/or societal power.  

The con games done by unconscionable career politicians, activists, and arrogant journalists were such an insult to the intelligence of one Pennsylvania native that the deceptiveness called for a response.  Eventually, he would include numerous pieces of photocopied evidence, to support his assertions and declaratory statements.  Doing such a thing is equivalent to warning the People of the wolves in their midst.

Now, the author of this site was a whistle blower more than once, and he paid heavily for it.  This includes him enduring the trashing of his reputation and in him being completely shut-off by those influential powers that be.  This included threats of physical violence,  as well as one actual attempt at very physical violence, done in front of the property owner where the failed attempt was made.  This whistle blower retaliation even included threats to his car.   

An instance of the Blue Marble Album author being a whistle blower who was abandoned & isolated after retaliation is here:

https://www.donaldwuerl.com/2013/06/torquato.html

For the record, Donald Wuerl is now a retired corrupt & unrepentant bishop who became a very corrupt & unrepentant cardinal, during the reign of Nazi Pope Benedict XVI.  Benedict's papacy was the epitome of corruption, as was proven by his butler handing over evidence to certain journalists.   

The media originally made Donald Wuerl out to be the most holy cleric in America, in a long-term propaganda ploy.  However, a 2018 Pennsylvania Grand Jury Report revealed how corrupt this Donald Wuerl actually was.  The Grand Jury Inquest occurred under the supervision of former AG and present governor Josh Shapiro.  For now, let's continue with the original purpose of this particular post ...

... and, let's use photocopies to introduce or reintroduce the author of the Blue Marble Album.

Below: an Honors Society yearbook photocopy of a Catholic college, in 1983.  After his attendance at the Univ of Tampa ... where Patrick Anthony Pontillo ended-up being published in anthology form ... at the age of 20 ... along side national book award winners, a Walt Whitman Award winner, and other laureates ...  he enrolled at a Pennsylvania college where he was taught by one of JFK's former economic advisors.

Concerning the 1983 photo below, the Blue Marble Album author, Patrick Anthony Pontillo, is the one in the checkered flannel shirt, standing in the second row, next to the Clark Kent look-alike.  

          Above:  As far as goes Patrick's status at the time of the photo was first semester senior.  So, you cannot deny that he was at the top ... at the very top five or so ... of his class.   All the people in that photo had at least a 3.5 gpa. 

One more pertinent note:  In 1983 Patrick was also inducted into the Phi Sigma Iota Language Honors Fraternity, for exceptional achievement in languages ... well you know the rest.  Incidentally, the chapter which inducted him was the Iota Iota chapter. 

As an added note, while at the Catholic college there, during the year prior, Patrick scored a 100% on a national, standardized accounting exam authored by Harvard University.

In fact, the first anthology in which Patrick was ever published sits on a Harvard University library shelf today, as well as on a Northwestern Univ book shelf, and at other college libraries.  So, he has proven himself to have been able to keep pace with the Ivy League.  And you wonder if you should spend time reading his writings?  

His writings contain a lot of charts, graphs, newspaper photocopies, and similar pieces of evidence, to prove the validity of his assertions and declaratory statements.  If you don't want to read his writings, then at least look at all the illustrations.  If you do not want to read the historic newspaper photocopies he posted, then at least read the headlines and sub-headlines.

In addition, he later became a member of the International High IQ Society which is a good additive.  But on its own, it's not worth anything.  With a National Honors Society membership and a Phi Sigma Iota membership, an IHIQS membership becomes a confirmation that you're not dealing with sophomoric chump change, in terms of apprehending subject matter, comprehending the meaning of the subject matter, applying a rhythm to cognizance, developing thought processes in sequences, and then conveying the subject matter as if to be showing a movie ... or as if to be taking you through a proverbial Time Machine.

Lineage

It's acknowledged that many an American has a distrust of Hispanics.  This is understood, even as to why this is so, as in violent gangs and the drug trade.  Well, Patrick's last name almost matches a former president of Mexico.  So, he sounds very Latin American.   And while in Florida, he was often assumed to be from Central America, until he was heard speaking in his northern accent.

The truth is that Patrick's paternal grandparents came from the Mount Vesuvius part of Italy --- Benevento & Avellino --- near Naples.   Pat's maternal grandparents came from Southwestern Ireland --- Tipperary & Muintervara (in Kilcrohane ... in Munster Province ... on the peninsula between Bantry Bay & Dunmanus Bay.)

Patrick also had a great uncle who became a New York City fireman.  During one fire, things did not go well for him.  He is on the roll-call of those NYC firefighters who died in the line of duty. 

Pat also has a second or third cousin who placed highly in a Miss Italy pageant.  When they placed her on the cover of Italy's most purchased magazine, they dressed her up like Jane Russell in the hayloft scene of the Outlaws.  Pat, himself, is from Pittsburgh.  

Moreover, the give-away which showed Patrick to not have been a Central American ... or NOT have been the "Spic" people assumed he was ... was when you got close to him and saw green-hazel eyes.  You would instantly realize that he was deliberately named after the patron saint of Ireland.  None the less, Pat was called a "Spic," before.

Pat's father was no Central American, as well.  He was a native of Central Pennsylvania.  He was a mechanical engineer for the Armco Steel Corporation who earned the GI Bill & Distinguished Flying Cross, by traveling over the more hostile parts of Nazi German airspace 35 times, in a heavily armed B-24 Bomber.  

Pat also has a sibling who was a metallurgical engineer and a military officer.  In fact, Pat's extended family members are mostly teachers/professors and lawyers, in addition to one electrical engineer.  He's from a very white collar upper-middle class, country club family.  All members of that family were sent to private academies, for a portion of their school years.  In fact, when you're a member of that family, you are expected to make the national honors society.  Don't judge a last name by its cover.

Back to the Honors Society Photo

Now, when you are looking at an Honors Society photo, you are looking at those at the top of their classes.  You see ten students in the photo above, in a school of approximately 1,750 or so undergrads.  Today, that same school has an undergrad enrollment of approximately 2,400 students.  A few years prior, the enrollment was approximately 2,000 undergrads and 400 graduate students of varying sort.

Below is a letter of recommendation from his philosophy professor.  It and the photo above should help you figure out if this Patrick Anthony Pontillo guy is worth reading.  At the least, his numerous photo-copies of evidence are very much worth viewing.


A 137 IQ is classified in the 98.9 to 99.3 percentile.  One out of  96 to147 people have an IQ of 137 or higher.  This is according to the Wechsler and also the Standford-Binet standard deviation grades.

In re:  The Character Assassination Maneuver

Perhaps you know how it goes:  If "they" can't beat you on the issues, they resort to attacking you with character assassinations.  So, if a predictable ad hominine character assassin declares the Blue Marble Album author to be a cold & repressed oppressor who doesn't know what he's talking about ... who doesn't understand humanity ... who can't relate to people ... and who must be avoided or silenced ...  your response is ====>  

               Above:  The main subject in those two photos look like the same one blonde.  
                       They are actually two different women from different parts of America.


And this is yet an entirely different blonde.
  Even though the subject in each of these two photos can look like the same brunette, 
they are two entirely different women, from different counties and different backgrounds.



                                  Ye olde college days.

                 For familiarization purposes, how about including work experience in picture form?
For the record, Patrick has done concrete work, carpentry, heavy equipment operating, "heavy landscaping," siding & window work, and he laid a lot of pipe ... as in underground pipelines.  This included relatively large concrete pipes.  In as much, if you walk around Downtown Pittsburgh long enough, you will literally walk on his work. 

Concerning other Pittsburgh work he has done, in order to get anywhere near that work, you need to be a bird or at least someone with a long ladder.  He did a lot of government contract work, even for the Army Corps of Engineers, the Pittsburgh City Engineers, HUD, the URA, the U.S. Dept of Energy, the Pennsylvania Dept of Education, and various "Councils of Governments".   Residential work too.
    
Above:   Some of Patrick's very recent places of work.   You need to be a bird to get near this work.

The achievement in this is that, from 2004 to 2011, he predominately lead the life of an invalid, due
to a severe allergic & asthmatic condition which included upper-respiratory reactions such as erythema, splitting headaches, splitting ear-aches, etc.  He won his disability case in 2003.  His disability was declared "a non-exertional disability."  All allergic disabilities are.

It's simply that his old construction company granted him accommodations that no other company would or even could grant.  So, he is still made out of glass, and he only works half the hours he 
used to work.  But, how many people can do this type of work for even 1 hour, and not undergo a 
painful injury of some degree?  How many people can do such work for an hour and not mess things up?

Incidentally, the most common thing said during the viewing of a recently deceased asthmatic, at a funeral home, is:   "I was just talking to him last week, and he was fine."

The bottom line is that, while Patrick was in his invalid state, the only way in which he could communicate was through writing.  So, write he did.   And then, Politics became the dissemination of lies, on the mainstream media circuits.  So, in response to the mass dishonesty, Patrick had to continue to write ... hundreds of posts ... with lots of illustrations, especially newspaper articles of old.  

One of his accomplishments was that of proving that nothing which happened in the past five years, weather-wise, is new ... and that the charts and graphs of the Biden years had easily provable lies in them, making the Biden-Harris people a clan of  intelligence-insulting liars.

Patrick also did historical society work.  The oldest house he renovated was built in 1832.  The second oldest house he ever worked-on was built in 1847.   Being a Pittsburgh-based construction worker means that Patrick regularly worked on houses built in the 1890s, the turn of the 20th Century, and
into the 1920s.  

He also did construction work in Chicago and the Chicago area, as well as in Meadville Pennsylvania, Somerset County, Reading PA, Greene County, and the now-infamous city of Butler, Pennsylvania.

The two "heavy equipment photos" above are literally historic.  This is because Patrick was the last heavy equipment operator to perform the final demolition on the formerly famous J&L Steel Works of Aliquippa Pennsylvania.  He removed the last remaining steel mill slab there.  When you look at those photos, you are looking at the place where J&L Steel of Aliquippa used to be.   Aliquippa was made famous by a couple NFL football stars ... and NCAA stars.

Above:  Patrick at the former company headquarters.  It was a 10,000 sq ft complex, located eighteen to twenty-two blocks away from the Univ of Pittsburgh Cathedral of Learning.

As an added note, Patrick once held four insurance licenses simultaneously.  It was technically known as one Pennsylvania insurance license with "4 powers of authority,"  This included:  1] Life & Annuities,  2] Property,  3] Casualty,  4] Accident & Health which is NOT the same as selling medical insurance which is a topic for another time.  The area to which Patrick was assigned by his insurance company was Beaver Falls, a place made famous by Super Bowl icon Joe Namath.

Posted as proof.  Posted for no other reason.
And then there's the matter of Patrick's sports background, for familiarization purposes.  
In the photo below, he's the man in the middle.


                                   Patrick again.
 Patrick also ran track.  However, his most successful sport ... in organized sports ... was baseball.  He was the lead-off hitter on a championship team which mostly consisted of the starting players of the nearby championship football team.

One of his baseball teammates of the prior season ended up in the Super Bowl and a number of Pro Bowl games.  So, Patrick did play on teams with guys who made a bit of a success of themselves in football.  But, he played baseball with most of them.  Yet, one of his football team mates did end up the starting quarterback in a Cotton Bowl game, and another one was recruited by the Air Force Academy.  Etc.


Pontillo's numerous hours of research and writing were actually years of research and writing ... and it was an unpaid public service.   Lots of work for no pay.   He was given a $100 donation once, back in 2014.  But he was never given as much as a penny after that time, and never before so, either.  It was a matter of years of work done for free, as a public service.  Even at that, the $100 was given in gratitude for him exposing the corruption of Cardinal Donald Wuerl.  That involves an entirely different website.

This translates into a writer who has no conflict of interest, as in paychecks for things written.  He NEVER got paid to write what he did.  That makes him the opposite of a propaganda puppet.
