John Stossel: It's the 20th Anniversary of Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth." NONE of his scary predictions have come true. Mt. Kilimanjaro still has snow and Glacier National Park still has glaciers. Here's why we are not doomed: (twitter.com)

Gore's power point presentation had a minimum of 17 facts that were easily disproven on day 1.
If you take his "cherry picker" graphs and line them up? They show 1/4 of the time CO2 rise PRE-ceeds (AGW theory!) 1/2 it mostly coincidental to and 1/4 definitely follows rising temps. There's no proof in his graphs of one of AGW's foundational ideas.
Didn't anyone wonder WHY he split them up like that? He actually used a cherry-picker too! 😜
& etc.
Now he's warning us of... GLOBAL COOLING! One cannot make this shit up!

I've never been more sus of graphs in general. I've seen too many average temperature graphs that only run ten years yet try to forecast the next hundred years; not to mention they forecast on trend lines only and not actual planetary conditions and events. I've seen graphs of stocks "nosediving" where the Y-axis bounds are between 90 and 120 points.

Far too much stock is taken in "normal" temperature anyway. The local news said today's high temp would be "almost normal." That would still make it abnormal, so I should panic. And if it's 80 degrees in Podunk on May 25 2000, why should it have to be 80 degrees on May 25 2030?

Reading the comments in Dr. Roy Spencer's blog, I'm convinced climatologists aren't anywhere near as capable of predicting climate as people give them credit for. Put a dozen in a room and you won't find any two who agree on everything.
