#14g Debating GOP Disconnect AGW - Gore’s AIT(27-35) vs SPPI, Monckton's 35 lies

The debate continues #27-35 :

For a more detailed introduction visit #14b Debating GOP Disconnect AGW

Quoting SPPI and Lord Monckton: "Below are the 35 errors pointed out by the SPPI article, with my short summary of the actual truths behind each dishonest fib. See the full explanations at 'ScienceandPublicPolicyorg/monckton/goreerrors.'" 

However, I will demonstrate that SPPI and their Lord M are in fact the malicious liars who politicized the science in order to confuse and stupefy innocents like my pal EM, and to further their self-interested myopic and destructive agenda. 

This last installment covers points 27 to 35: Mosquitoes, tropical diseases, CO2 pollution, 2003 heatwave 35K, Pied flycatchers, bogus pictures, Thames Barrier, Facts are supported.  I appreciate this has been many hours worth of an exercise in futility, though I always learn a bit more.  Still, our new Republican government is too concerned with putting the finishing touches on becoming America's overlords and they could care less about reason or learning or the future beyond their own immediate gratification.  In their shallow hubristic mindscapes our planet Earth has no more depth or substance than a post card.  So why do I care?  Because people still need to know the truth is easy to find, one simply needs the intellectual integrity and curiosity to look for it.

#14f Debating GOP Disconnect AGW - Gore’s AIT(17-26) vs SPPI, Monckton's 35 lies

For a more detailed introduction visit #14b Debating GOP Disconnect AGW

Quoting SPPI and Lord Monckton: "Below are the 35 errors pointed out by the SPPI article, with my short summary of the actual truths behind each dishonest fib. See the full explanations at 'ScienceandPublicPolicyorg/monckton/goreerrors.'" 

However, I will demonstrate that SPPI and their Lord are in fact the malicious liars who politicized the science in order to confuse and stupefy innocents like my pal EM, and to further their self-interested myopic and destructive agenda. 

Here I review points 17 to 26: Arctic Ocean warming, Arctic warming, Greenland glaciers, Himalayan g., Peruvian g., disappearing mountain glaciers, West Antarctic, Antarctic Peninsula, Larson B collapse, Sahara desert.  I had fun with this one and embedded nine authoritative, informative YouTube videos along with the usual plethora of relevant educational links. 

Jennifer Francis: A New Arctic Feedback,
27 Years of 'Old' Arctic Ice Melt Away in Second,
NASA | Greenland's Ice Layers Mapped in 3D,
Greenland Ice Sheet Changing,
Himalayan Glaciers Melting Faster Than Anywhere On Earth,
Trouble at Totten Glacier, Antarctica,
2016 Antarctic Ozone Hole Meets Scientist Expectations,
2002 Larsen-B Ice Shelf Collapse,
Huge Antarctic iceberg poised to break away.

I do hope this series helps show some folks out there see how easy it is to confront the nonsense being put out there.  The internet is being flooded with astroturfed malicious liars, we need more grassroots involvement to confront these lies with facts and arguments.  

SkepticalScience.com has put together a collection of all contrarian arguments, and there are hundreds, with a review of why said arguments are false or misleading.  Check it out at https://skepticalscience.com/argument.php?f=taxonomy

The debate continues #17-26 :

#14e Debating GOP Disconnect AGW - Gore’s AIT(10-16) vs SPPI, Monckton's 35 lies

       *  EM’s response:   Okay, you’ve got me on this one. I did in fact confuse myself between climate science in the media vs the climate science community. I was mainly referencing outlandish claims from Al Gore in “An Inconvenient Truth”  by relying on the Republican's outlandish PR fraudster the Lord Monckton - now that's what self inflicted delusion is all about, allow me to explain.  

In this continuation of my debate with EM I have allowed him to distract me with SPPI's 35 Errors, Lies and Deceptions contrivance that their "Lord" Monckton has so successfully astro-turfed all over the internet.  I will demonstrate that SPPI and Lord Monckton are in fact the malicious liars who ruthlessly politicize the science in order to confuse and stupefy innocents like my pal EM and to further their self-interested myopic and destructive agenda.  Here I review points 10 through 16 - difference 100ppm makes, Hurricane Katrina, Japanese typhoon record, hurricane strength, insurance loses, Mumbai flooding, tornados.

This debate started over my musing regarding the "Republican Disconnect From Planet Earth."
After my introduction
*   I will first quote SPPI’s Lord M’s claim.  
*   Then share Gore’s relevant AIT quotes so you can decide for yourselves how honesty (or not) it was described by SPPI's Lord.  
*   This is followed with some commentary intended to add perspective to the Lord’s spin and offer ‘the rest of the story’ regarding the issue in question.  
*   Rounding up the exercise I’ll include authoritative links and some YouTube videos to offer genuine learning opportunities regarding the questions raised.
