Global temperature anomalies since 1880, with decadal averages. Click to enlarge. Somewhere on a Hollywood movie set for Groundhog Day, Part 2: Bill Murray wakes up to find he’s just lived through the hottest decade on record, just as he did in the 2000s, just as he did in the 1990s, just as he did in the 1980s. And he keeps waking up in the hottest decade on record, until he gains the kind of maturity and wisdom that can only come from doing the same damn thing over and over and over again with no change in the result. Ah, if only life were like a movie. Somewhere in PA : Punxsutawney Phil saw the shadow of unrestricted fossil-fuel pollution from Homo “sapiens” today. That means global warming for another six thousand weeks — and then some (see NOAA : Climate change “largely irreversible for 1000 years”). If the world keeps listening to the siren song of delay from the anti-science, pro-pollution crowd and their enablers, then eventually people aren’t going to go through this elaborate charade of wondering whether some large rodent in Pennsylvania can predict the weather — the forecast will always be the same, “bloody hot”: “Nature Bombshell : Observations Point To 10°F Warming by 2100 Alarming IPCC Prognosis : 9°F Warming For U.S., Faster Sea Rise, More Extreme Weather, Permafrost Collapse IEA : World on Pace for 11°F Warming, “Even School Children Know This Will Have Catastrophic Implications for All of Us” Those scientific pr
