"As Mae West said: It is better to be looked over than overlooked"
I’m
pleased to report that Paul Beckwith is completely unfazed by the ad
hominem attack in yesterday’s Washington Post as well as by social
media trolls.
Apart
from being very alarming news in itself it HAS got this story out and
being talked about. This story has legs with,at last count 212,955
views of Paul’s video and being covered by both Britain's Daily Express and RT.
Responses to Paul Beckwith’s video
Here are some of Paul Bckwith's comments from his Facebook page.
I
am celebrating Canada Day! Great fun in downtown Ottawa.
I
jumped up and down on the repaired sinkhole and it seems solid!!!
Regarding
my viral video, and the pathetic Washington Post hack attempt:
I
am no stranger to adversity and conflict and intrigue:)
No
need to worry about me:)
Cutting
edge science is always controversial.
Climate
deniers like Spencer and Watts are united with well known "mainstream
scientists" in circling their precious wagons. Even the
venerable and highly respected Potsdam Centre has told people asking
them about my video to see the Washington Post article. Quite funny,
actually. Same with Mann and Schmidt.
It
is a chess game, and the Post and deniers and scientists that have
united against me will soon be crushed under my scathing rebuttal of
their rebuttal. Utter Nonsense they say.
As
Mae West said: It is better to be looked over than overlooked.
As
they say in Duplicate Bridge: Go slow with a strong hand.
This
is a case where the British tabloids like Daily Express posting my
video and images have much more factual information and guts than
many scientists and so-called main stream media; at least thus far.
Hilariously,
mainstream scientists are unable to see something in front of their
noses, unless it is peer reviewed. And journalists play along with
their game. Meanwhile, abrupt climate change ignores all this human
weakness and marches onward, to the detriment of our biosphere.
Don't
fret. We will shortly look upon an Arctic Ocean completely devoid of
sea ice. A much darker region, which will completely rewrite our
weather patterns in an unfamiliar climate.
Happy
Canada Day!!!
Happy
July 4th, in a few days.
Happy
every day. Life is a gift...
Facebook
friends, and anybody really worried about climate change...
My
last video (below) has gone viral. Over 187,000 views now (12:30 PM
EST Jun 30) with a rate of 14,000 per hour about midnight, increased
from 8,000 per hour between 6 and 9 pm EST; at 5,000 per hour in the
wee hours, stabilized now at about 4,000 per our.
Please cut and paste below and post far and wide on social media. The more traction there is with this one video the more my other past videos and future videos will get.

Strange.
Is this the new normal? The jet stream crosses the equator

Unprecedented? Jet Stream Crosses Equator.
It
used to be Global Warming Fact of the Day.
I was banned from that site a couple of years ago for defending Guy McPherson and trying to get them to come back with some facts.

Now
one of the main meeting points of denialists seems to be Air,
Climate Change, Energy
I feel honoured to be linked in the minds of these fools with Paul Beckwith (as I was,with GWFOTD with Guy McPherson)!
It's an honour!
Westenra.
What's the bet they'll claim this is disastrous and because it
is so abrupt it is caused by AGW?

I bring you some of the "intelligent" comments from there
Meanwhile these comments from Robert Scribbler made my blood boil.
He has added the following to his original post
However, the inference taken from my article was somewhat misconstrued. Stating that a global climate emergency due to loss of seasonality is currently upon us and is far-reaching. The message in my article is that the situation appears to be worsening and that this particular global climate crisis may be something that we’ll face over the coming years and decades.
The article was intended to highlight the risk posed by weakening dividing lines between climate zones, an apparent observed increase in meridional upper air patterns, and in this case, an observation of the upper-level wind pattern that crossed from pole to pole.

UPDATE
— A Necessary Statement on the Accuracy of the Above Article and
Related Edits
The
original article prompted a reaction from a
few atmospheric scientists (including noted climate skeptic Roy
Spencer) as shown here in this Washington Post opinion
piece by Jason Samenow, weather editor for the Post. In consideration
of the information shared in this piece, I have made a couple of
corrections to the information concerning upper-level equatorial wind
patterns.

As
I mentioned in my article, large meridional upper-level wind flows
and related extreme weather, along with what appears to be a growing
trend toward a loss of seasonality is a very big deal. Apparently not
everyone agrees with me on this point. Regardless, the concern over
loss of seasonal variation due to human-caused climate change remains
an issue. While there is no guarantee that risk and climate
meta-analysis will result in 100 percent accuracy, it is a worthwhile
process nonetheless to both identify potential risks under the
rapidly changing climate states of our world and to ask the hard
questions.
In
closing, I must gently disagree with the assertions Mr. Samenow put
forth in his opinion piece. On the contrary, it is the height of
responsibility to highlight issues that so many others have tended to
ignore or discount at great risk to our global civilization.
Paul
Beckwith has
made his own statements in response to the above article.
His statements and conclusions are his own.
If
you do not listen to me, then please listen to what the Earth System
is telling us. It is very, very concerning. Regards to all and best
wishes.

As you can see it is not what he says publicly but "behind the scenes" in comments that is so obnoxious.

My own comments -
Once
again the blogger “Robertscribbler” has come out attacking Paul
Beckwith and ascribing outrageous claims to him.
Who
was it that talked about “giant gravitational waves” and about a climate change-driven loss of seasonal integrity?
Instead
Paul has described the phenomenon in a way that seems fairly
uncontroversial to me, describes it as ‘unprecedented’ (with a
question mark) and says we have a climate emergency.
Is
it this latter point that gets Scribbler so riled?
Certainly
the bare mention of NTHE or Guy McPherson is enough to get you
banished from commenting no matter how fair-minded and polite the
comments are.
Now,
the list seems to have been extended to “climate emergency”.
I
think we need to look to the realm of psychology to explain this
phenomenon. Every word written by Robertscribbler (and he writes some
very good stuff) shouts out CLIMATE EMERGENCY and yet he cannot bear
to acknowledge his own evidence.
Very
bizarre.
There
is an element of narcissim in his intolerance and need (seemingly) to
only have sychophants surrounding him and his violent rejection of
such decent people such as Guy McPherson and Paul Beckwith for their
ideas.
Personally,I would prefer that people discuss things at the level of ideas,but alas other things get in the way.
I do not have the good humour of a Paul Beckwith.

I
personally liked this comment on my own Facebook page:
“Wow
what an ass. He's busy arguing on the train tracks about whether or
not a train is coming while the train is barreling down on him.
This
is not the first time I’ve had to callout Mr. Robert Marston Fanny
(aka ‘Robertscribbler)

In Paul's video he shows from 12m onward the QMI phase which he then explains and then at ~12:47 he further shows a plot that starts from 1961. At 13:05 he shows the most recent plot which shows a very signficant departure from every previos year (since 1961). You would have to have some other purpose not to recognise this departure from our recorded past and how serious it is for us. Well done Robert and Paul.
