Bangladesh (And Along Mid Atlantic) Sea Levels Rise Is Due To The Land Sinking. Zero Warming In Tropical Atmosphere And Oceans In 35+ Years.

takeaway

• We warmed from the 1920s to 1940s, cooled 1940s to 1970s, warmed 1970s to 1990s then stabilized and began to cool again  
• We don't live in the virtual world of the models but in the real world where only real data matters.  
• When the earth did warm from the 1970s to 1990s, it was in northern latitudes only and that warming stopped 18+ years ago.
• There has been no warming in the tropical atmosphere and oceans for 35 years as shown by balloons, satellite and buoys that measure temperatures down to 300 meters.  
• Bangladesh is seeing sea levels rise because the land is sinking, as it is along the Mid Atlantic. There has been no rise in sea level at Tuvalu or the Maldives

Climate is always changing. Our current climate is remarkably benign compared to the past. This last century continued the recovery from the ice age of prior centuries. We warmed from the 1920s to 1940s, cooled to the 1970s, warmed to the 1990s then have stabilized and begun to cool again this century. This temperature pattern fits to a tee the natural multidecadal changes in the oceans and solar cycles.  The UN commissioned greenhouse theory based climate models continue to fail MISERABLY because they ignore the real climate drivers. We don't live in the virtual world of the models but in the real world where only real data matters.  When the earth did warm from the 1970s to 1990s, it was in northern latitudes only and that warming stopped 18 years ago. There has been no warming in the tropical atmosphere and oceans for 35 years as shown by balloons, satellite and buoys that measure temperatures down to 300 meters. This is the area where ALL the greenhouse models forecast warming would be most robust. There has been no increase in drought or flood (NOAA), or heat waves (the 1930s holds 23 of the 50 state records, 38 came before 1960 and there were more cold record than heat records since the 1940s). Hurricanes globally are at a 34 year low. Tornadoes in 2013 were 142 less than any other year on record and the number of forest fires in the US last year was the lowest in the record since 1984. These events will happen, always have and always will but man is not responsible.  You seemed most concerned about sea levels. The sea level hype has gone on for decades with promises of global increases of 20 feet by Gore and even 264 feet by Hansen. In actual fact, the global sea level rises have slowed dramatically to an average of less than 4 inches a century. NOAA US tide gauges are rising at an average rate of 3.6 inches/century. See this story by Nils Axel Morner, the world's foremost sea level expert.  Bangladesh is seeing sea levels rise because the land is sinking, as it is along the Mid Atlantic. There has been no rise in sea level at Tuvalu or the Maldives, the poster children of the 'scare the world' program of the UN. The author you mentioned to me, Church is a UN IPCC chapter co-lead author and his projections are based on 'adjusted' data and model projections. Don't buy into the disinformation, they are peddling. It is driven by politics.  The real threat comes not from warming but potential continued acceleration into colder conditions. Solar scientists have warned of a major cooling from greatly diminished solar activity, down already 60% since 1990. That would be far more problematic for the world food production and energy needs than an imperceptible, gentle warming.
