What about it? It’s not true. The claim resides on an incorrect assumption, that all the factors are independent and do not cross-correlate.

The error bars in temps does not combine with the error bars in sea ice cover to produce an even less likely estimate of how climate is changing.

If you wanted to find out, go and read the actual IPCC report, not the summary for policy makers.

cosmicomics: Comment 294

Dr. Curry’s behavior seems odd, even for me. She knows the facts; she knows the physics involved; she knows the damage already caused by human-caused climate change. Yet she publicly denies there is a problem when speaking to some audiences, and agrees there is a problem when speaking to other audiences. It is as if she believes what ever the audience pays her to believe.

Unlike me, Steyn’s anus: I (we) have consistently claimed I believe the exact opposite of observed reality. I would do that even if payment stopped. That makes me superior.

You’ve requested some links, and I’ve provided some reflecting on Curry’s credibility here:

“What I am saying is that anthropogenic global warming is NOT PROVEN. I admit it is moderately likely, But I reject the notion that the matter is settled. Whatever else it is, it is certainly NOT settled.” #267

At this level climate science is as proven and as settled as it can be. We know that more energy is entering the atmosphere than is leaving it, and we know the radiative quality of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. Other possible causes for this imbalance have been examined, and rejected.

The conclusions below are from America’s and Britain’s leading scientific bodies:

“Scientists know that recent climate change is largely caused by human activities from an understanding of basic physics, comparing observations with models, and fingerprinting the detailed patterns of climate change caused by different human and natural influences.”
“The observed global surface temperature rise since 1900 is consistent with detailed calculations of the impacts of the
observed increase in atmospheric CO2 (and other human-induced changes) on Earth’s energy balance.”
Climate Change: Evidence & Causes

“1. Climate scientists agree: Climate change is happening here and now. Based on well-established evidence, about 97% of climate scientists have concluded that human-caused climate change is happening. This agreement is documented not just by a single study, but by a converging stream of evidence over the past two decades from surveys of scientists, content analyses of peer-reviewed studies, and public statements issued by virtually every membership organization of experts in this field.”

Your knowledge of climate models and temperature data is deficient. If you’re interested in links to science-based sources, I’d be happy to provide them.

Not if it is up to Judith Curry! To her doing nothing is just as viable a policy option, as she has stated (but no, she really is not giving any policy advice – that would be activism, and she’s against that…).

Respect must be earned. It can also be betrayed, and consequently lost.

Obstreperous Applesauce: “Assertion by meme and a tacit admission that you don’t know how science works, the history of Curry being debunked, or what you’re talking about.”

Earth might still be the center of the universe. The Roman Catholic Church might be right!

“RTFM before you spout off.”

Us Unix fans used to say “See Figure One” which was in ASCII, complete with nail on the finger.

DFM: “I merely claim that the matter is NOT PROVEN, NOT SETTLED.”

No scientist has ever said it is “proven.” However, the issue has been settled for decades.

Obstreperous Applesauce: “DFM; Yeah, I kinda figured from that jumble that you were all about anti-government. Just wanted to hear it from the horse’s mouth.”

Almost 70% predictive, in fact.
