As all the science data have shown, global warming has not been significant since 1995, and has been non-existent since 1998. This extended lack of global warming is in no way consistent with the human CO2-based AGW hypothesis, nor the predictions of all the IPCC climate models.
Despite the utter failure of both the hypothesis and its climate models, government/academia funded climate alarmist scientists continue to predict huge global warming, due to the growth in human CO2 emissions.
Now for the disturbing analysis (after billions have been spent on AGW-dependent climate research): First, these same climate alarmist scientists have no clue where their predicted global warming heat is going; second, these scientists also have no clue where the known growth in CO2 emissions is going. These are major "consensus" unknowns, acknowledged by the alarmist scientists.
Sooo, let's summarize: The AGW hypothesis major input, CO2 emissions, is missing; the AGW hypothesis major output, warming/heat, is missing.
Recognizing the obvious, this is the convoluted, moronic state of leftist-liberal, big government, politically correct science we have been given by Democrats/environmental radicals. For the typical, rational, objective, empirical scientist though, this would be called F.U.B.A.R. science.
