Its back!!!!
SRBA: "What global warming?.......global temperatures haven't increased for nearly two decades..." Nonsense, but I suppose you still choose a very warm El Nino year (1998) as your starting reference whilst ignoring long term trend. So lets start with Spencer your "champion" who has written:
What Causes Weather?
"Let’s start with the basics: Weather is caused by energy imbalances, primarily (1) between the solar heated surface of the Earth and the atmosphere above it, and (2) between different geographic regions (e.g. the tropics vs. high latitudes; the warm oceans versus cold continents in winter)"
Temperature differences are the root cause of weather, not pressure.
Here is Roy's latest set of figures
UAH Global Temperature Update for Sept. 2014: +0.29 deg. C
October 2nd, 2014 by Roy W. Spencer, Ph. D.
"The Version 5.6 global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for September, 2014 is +0.29 deg. C, up from the August value of +0.20 deg. C. Whoops, warming? Even non scientific types might notice a "trend" with the red 13 month average line, (might?)
Basic atmospheric science:
Global anthropogenic CO2 emissions into the atmosphere in 2013 ,estimated to be 38.8 billion tonnes, 40% of that is not absorbed, resulting in a steady increase in atmospheric CO2.
CO2 is a greenhouse gas, thus it will contribute to a positive global warming trend. Weather (climate) is caused t
by temperature differentials, thus our climate is destined to change over time . However, unlike in the past when changes in temperature/climate occurred over many thousands of years these changes have occurred since the Industrial Revolution.
We will not halt what is happening, perhaps slow it down a little, so we must adapt. Just saying I don't believe it, is silly, believe the majority of scientists who apply the Scientific Method, and do.

Ideally, trees would thrive on it and make their waste product "oxygen" for us to breathe. Only there are no more trees, humans cut them all down. The amount of oxygen produced by weeds just isn't gonna be enough. Because weeds grow and spread more redally rapidly than trees, we are over run with them, also, many plants/weeds actually put off harmfull toxins into the air that wouldn't kill us, but can make us sick. Poison Ivy, oak, ect..
There are wooded areas around here but no big trees, I fear the small trees won't become big trees in my lifetime. So yes, plants use c02 and to the plants, oxygen is polution "a waste product" Simply put, we are putting way too much c02, and other waste products like carbon monoxide, forine, lithium, bisphinal, and litterally hundreds more into water, air, and soil. Theres no way I am going to believe that this can't harm us in some ways, or possiblly kill us.
If there are no trees to use it, where is it gonna go and where are we gonna get our oxygen?
Seriously?........ Humans cut all the trees down?....
...Don't you wonder where your oxygen comes from.....
What is the evidence that there is too much c02 in the atmosphere........

Nice graphs.....and?
