The scientific community would come down on me in no uncertain terms if I said the world had cooled from 1998. OK it has but it is only 7 years of data and it isn’t statistically significant.

That was in 2005. The cooling trend has continued through 2008 and I have no doubt when 2009 is over it will go down as unusually cold. Which would be 11 years.

So even the leader of the anthropogenic global warming cabal admits the planet has been cooling since 1998. Or at least he admits it when there are no reporters around.

    I am surprised he said that to John Christy who is skeptic. You are right, however that it has been 10 years of Global Cooling.
