Canadian vs. US Attitudes on Climate Change

[waldo]

nope, sorry... you already trotted out the sun once before... the sun has not been a principal contributor - see, "deepest solar minimum".

selected December 2010 weather reports, ala the lukinWay™

meanwhile, despite the

deepest solar minimum in a century

, pending the upcoming release of December 2010 temperature anomalies:

- for the 2010 Meteorologic Year (Dec 2009-to-November 2010), NASA announced the 2010 Meteorological Year was the warmest in NASA's 130-year temperature record.

- for the 2010 year-to-date (January–November), NOAA announced 2010 (January-November), the warmest such period since the 1880 beginning of temperature records.

of course... you realize Spencer is a creationist - right? In any case, Spencer is free to attempt to publish his views and have them stand the test of actual scientific peer-review scrutiny. Of course, if you simply want to stick with your reliance on "blog science", we can certainly go there... several, in depth reviews of Spencer's nonsense, related to his latest book, have already come forward. Note... it is you that is simply relying on blog science... I am accommodating you, in kind:

-

Roy Spencer's Great Blunder, Part 1

-

Roy Spencer's Great Blunder, Part 2

-

Roy Spencer's Great Blunder, Part 3

you, obviously, have displayed no foundation that you, even remotely, understand any of the science - even at the most basic of levels... let's see you actually engage - beyond, mere lukinWay™ link dropping, hey?

for someone now stating they don't care about the U.S. coal industry, what's your junkyard dog act been about? You've continued to beak off about North American/U.S. "clean coal"... never once mentioning CCS. Of course, you were continually challenged to actually offer your definition of "clean coal", particularly in relation to a comparative review of China versus the U.S. - the result... your reply? Crickets. Face it you didn't even have a clue as to what CCS was - do you, even yet? It was quite humorous to see you trip over yourself with your latest video link that actually reflected upon the Reality Coalition's attack on the U.S. coal industry's lack of meaningful deployed CCS resource engagement, favouring instead, marketing and lobbying over actual CCS investment. Let's replay the following post... the one that encapsulates your long running difficulty in reading/comprehension, hey?

dumbass! Is there a reason you can't stay on topic... when your "arguments/positions" are found wanting? Is there a reason you need to revert to a ShadyPractices conflating routine? I suppose I could follow your silly buggar act and highlight such things as, ohhhh... say... the Pentagon Papers, Wikileaks, Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, forced renditions, secret prisons, U.S. private security firm actions in Iraq, etc.,.... and, of course, recognizing that 'human rights' also encompasses domestic economic, social and cultural facets, one could extend a most critical eye into internal U.S. practices. But, of course, none of the aforementioned actually has anything to do with China's world-leading positions on sustainable energy and CCS research/deployment... does it, hey? None of it actually reflects upon your accusation that China is misleading the world on it's efforts/results in CCS research/deployments. You know... the accusation you were challenged on... the challenge you're now running away from with your dumbass conflation routine, hey?

I agree, the practices of the US coal industry have been wrong. But all I'm asking you about is whether you support similar CCS research/deployments in North America as related to China. Are you a proponent of replacing our old and outdated coal plants with the same CCS coal plants that China is researching and deploying?
