We keep hearing the "science is settled," yet once again data emerge
showing that there has been no appreciable warming now for 19 years.
Memo to global warming advocates: People are starting to notice. Of course, it is pretty clear from the record that temperatures have
risen in the past 150 years or so. But that should hardly be surprising,
given that the period lasting into the early 19th century was known as
the "Little Ice Age." But more recently, alarms were sounded over the rise in 2015 and 2016
of global temperatures, even though the rise was a result of a
temporary phenomenon — the "El Nino" effect of warming seawaters in the
Pacific that create higher temperatures and weather disruptions around
the world. As Christopher Booker of the Sunday Telegraph in Britain noted this
week, after being repeatedly warned about 2016 being "the hottest year
on record," we now have arrived at this: "In recent months global temperatures have plummeted by more than 0.6 degrees: just as happened 17 years ago after a similarly strong El Nino."... As we noted recently,
since the 1997 Kyoto Accord, U.S. output of greenhouse gases has
plummeted 7.3%, despite U.S. GDP growing by 52% during that time. Our
greenhouse gas footprint is shrinking, not growing. Meanwhile, nations
such as China and India that are boosting their output of greenhouse
gases dramatically remain untouched by any of the recent anti-global
warming agreements — including the damaging one that Obama agreed to in
Paris in late 2015, but never submitted to the Senate for approval. Which raises a big question. The Trump administration right now is under intense pressure both here and abroad
to remain in Obama's fraudulent Paris climate deal, which, as far as we
can tell, is intentionally designed to destroy the U.S. economy and
lower Americans' standard of living. Given the bad science and the enormous costs on which the Paris deal is based, why continue to give it any credence at all?

The reason why the phrases “Anti-science”, “Evidence-deniers”, and ”Global Warming Deniers” are used is that the “Anti-science Deniers” ignore demonstrable evidence, and fabricate stories and “facts” that are not true.

The claim
“In recent months global temperatures have plummeted by more than 0.6 degrees”
is absurd and illustrates the mindless parroting of denier falsehoods.
.
The average temperature for the first 4 months of 2017 is warmer than the record year of 2016.
