So, the most recent science shows 1) no observed relationship
between global
warming and winter severe weather outbreaks and 2) future «polar vortex» - associated cold outbreaks are
projected to mollify — yet the White House prepares a special video proclaiming the opposite with the intent to spread climate alarm.
In no place will this internal inconsistency be more obvious than in how the IPCC deals with the discrepancy
between the observed effectiveness of greenhouse gases in
warming the earth and this effectiveness calculated by the climate models that the IPCC uses to
project future climate change.
Assuming the IPCC's value for climate sensitivity (i.e. disregarding the recent scientific literature) and completely stopping all carbon dioxide emissions in the U.S.
between now and the year 2050 and keeping them at zero, will only reduce the amount of global
warming by just over a tenth of a degree (out of a total
projected rise of 2.619 °C
between 2010 and 2100).
And again, the higher the thermometer climbs, the greater the possible disparities in the adaptive capacity of regions: ``... local
warming of about 4 [degrees Celsius] and higher above pre-industrial levels is
projected to result in differences
between crop production and its population - driven demand becoming increasingly large in many regions (high confidence), thus posing very significant risks and challenges to food security.

Careful and up - to - date monitoring of present and
projected human - induced
warming will be essential to the Paris process as it tackles the challenge of limiting
warming to 1.5 C — as will a good dialogue
between scientists and decision - makers to ensure that the latest knowledge about the climate system is effectively communicated to policymakers.
Assuming that the largest remaining ice shelves in East Antarctica — Filchner - Ronne and Ross — will remain intact, sea level rise from all other melting ice and the expansion of seawater as the weather gets
warmer over the next century would be somewhere
between 2.6 feet (0.8 meter) and six feet (two meters)-- or nearly twice as much as
projected last year by the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
An area of water where almost no
