Climate Denial Crock of the Week </a> Fake News is not new. I
started creating videos specifically to push back against a
sewertide of nonsense spewing from the alphabet soup of "think"
tanks spawned by the Koch Brothers, Exxon, and a rogue's gallery
of fossil fuel info criminals. YouTube Channel <a

The ability to tell fake from factual is a critical skill we
should be teaching in the digital age.<br>
I’ll be exploring this in future vids – for now, here are some
good examples of how I learned to track a false meme to it’s
source.<br>

Brace for Battle Against Donald Trump</a></b><br>
<blockquote><font size="-1">But environmental groups are bracing to
fight back, and they insist the American public is behind
them....Any efforts by Trump and the Republican-controlled
Congress to roll back the Clean Power Plan, Obama's signature
climate initiative, will be met with resistance, say the
advocates.... Even if environmentalists are ultimately able to
block some of Trump's plans, they will still be faced with a
larger problem. Obama's climate policies were only a good
start—they didn't get us anywhere close to averting catastrophic
warming. ... the accelerating pace of climate change means that
the planet can't afford four years of inaction. "Time is not our
friend here,"....</font><br>

<blockquote><font size="-1">New research is revealing that Earth's
climate sensitivity may actually get worse as global
temperatures continue to rise.</font><br>
<font size="-1">Equilibrium climate sensitivity is the measure of
just how much global temperatures will rise due to a doubling of
carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere. Pre-industrial
carbon dioxide concentrations were roughly 280 parts per million
in the atmosphere, so climate scientists have been trying to
find out how much warming we can expect if the concentration was
increased to 560 ppm due to the continued use of fossil fuels...</font><br>
<font size="-1">The hope has been that climate sensitivity is low
- perhaps just a degree or two Celsius, at the most. Reality,
however, has been a bit more harsh, pointing more towards a
climate sensitivity of between 2oC and 7oC, with a rise of
around 3oC being the most likely outcome.</font><br>

climate sensitivity and its implications for future greenhouse
warming</a></font><br>
<font size="-1">Abstract Global mean surface temperatures are
rising in response to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions.
The magnitude of this warming at equilibrium for a given
radiative forcing—referred to as specific equilibrium climate
sensitivity (S)—is still subject to uncertainties. We estimate
global mean temperature variations and S using a
784,000-year-long field reconstruction of sea surface
temperatures and a transient paleoclimate model simulation. Our
results reveal that S is strongly dependent on the climate
background state, with significantly larger values attained
during warm phases. Using the Representative Concentration
Pathway 8.5 for future greenhouse radiative forcing, we find
that the range of paleo-based estimates of Earth’s future
warming by 2100 CE overlaps with the upper range of climate
simulations conducted as part of the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5). Furthermore, we find
that within the 21st century, global mean temperatures will very
likely exceed maximum levels reconstructed for the last 784,000
years. On the basis of temperature data from eight glacial
cycles, our results provide an independent validation of the
magnitude of current CMIP5 warming projections. <a
