Behind this? >> i think the real politics is youve got yours -- i think its a very elite thing. its anti-consumerist. if you live in a nice neighborhood, its nice to pull the drawbridge up and say in the interest of the environment, were not having anymore development. theres been no global warming now for 17 years and none of the climate models predicted that. they all told us -- the most famous one showed the lastñr millennium as the shaft of a hockey stick. youre thinking, oh, my god, the pl...

Yours, i think its a very elite thing. its anti consumeristic. if you live in a nice neighborhood, its nice to pull the draw bridge up and say were not having any more development. the interest is the science theres no global warming for 17 years, none of the climate models, none of the scare monday geri gering. the last millennium is the sharp of the hockey stick and this giant blade going out the 20th century and disappearing through the roof, oh, my god the planet is going to burn? they have ...

I understand the subject very well. i understand that water vapor is the key to impacting the co 2 increase on global warming and the climate. and all of these climate models, it doesnt matter how sophisticated a climate model is, it is not a crystal ball. you could learn more about the climate by throwing a bunch of bones on the ground than you could by these models, they are computer models, something you cant predict the future of the earth with. theyre all saying the co 2 is going to result ...

Change or global change to describe what we believe or predict will the future, where the warming of the earths atmosphere, more energy held in the earths atmosphere will create nontraditional weather patterns. and so this -- in this case is very reasonable that this polar vortex or arctic whirlpool, whirlwind is dipping so far south because the motion of large air masses in the northern hemisphere have changed the weather over north america, especially for a few days. i think many people back e...

Down under, in australia, theyre experiencing a record heat wave. they have just announced that they had the warmest year that theyve ever had. so its that larger context. thats climate change. and thats global warming. >> can you explain to me, finally, what this antarctica expedition was about, and what is going on with the ice in antarctica? ive seen the people that occupy this strange nether region of internet climate or hoax or trolls talk about the fact that theres actually more ice in ant...

Sciences. they acknowledge they dont know. were making fundamental discoveries about mars right now thanks to the rover up there, the voyagers are making new discoveries, but yet with climate science, theres this quality of saying global warming is unequivocal and we must take drastic steps to reshape the worlds economy or were going to face catastrophe. they speak differently than other sciences. >> that lesson to me, the big one, is on uncertainty. we have to wait and see now, in particular, w...

Is part of the discurious of all the science. they acknowledge they dont know. were making fundamental discoveries about mars right now thanks to the rover up here. the voyagers make new discoveries. yet theres this saying global warming is unequivocal and we must take drastic steps or were going to face a catastrophe. climate scientists speak in a very different way from scientists in other disciplines. >> that lesson is uncertainty. that you don to wait and see now in particular with the last ...

The author of "high tide on main street" oceanographer john englander also climatologist pat michaels from the cato institute. should i be so scared as the president suggests? >> it is so twentieth century. in the last tenures forecast of global warming has begun to calmed down we are seeing sensitivity of temperature being reduced by 40 percent with the new climate models. be old models were too hot to that is recognized. john: that is 40 percent less but if weather is worse that is a problem. ...
