One of our readers says that 1979 was an anomaly.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

“Natural variability is more of a trend…”
Why let the facts get in the way? The NY Times is worried about acting Now! before the public gets distracted by cold weather.
“For the moment, we have an opportunity to make fundamental changes to the way our country deals with the environment, changes that would lock in public acceptance of climate change. But we have to act quickly — not only because the crisis is urgent, but because one good blizzard could change a lot of minds.”

“changes that would lock in public acceptance of climate change …” ?
That comes dangerously close to a call for dictatorship.
And the graph show, to anyone who can think, that man-made climate change is just a fiction. Natural variations in temperature are just that – natural.
When I first became interested in weather records back in the 1960’s and 1970’s, I was amazed at the extremely hot temperatures during the 1930’s. Also, between 1958 and 1968, Washington, DC’s snowfall averaged about twice normal. I thought the climate had definitely turned significantly colder. With CO2 rising rapidly during that time.
During the Great Depression, CO2 emissions declined as industrial production plummeted. Yet temperatures spiked during the 1930s to record levels. Most of those record highs still stand today.
According to the CO2-causes-warming theorists, temperatures should have declined as CO2 emissions declined. The alleged correlation of CO2 levels with temperature is 100 precent bovine excrement.
The bovine excrement is courtesy of the bean counters who create statistics to suit their needs, forgetting their duty to the public, to do it correctly for all of us.
