"#14, how many of those people in Texas and Arizona are living without air conditioning? That's not an option for many in less wealthy countries." Whehter they have or have not airconditioning, it's just as hot. The populations of these countries are not "succumbing to heat stress" even though they live in climates hotter than Texas and Arizona. I grew up in Texas, and we didn't have central a/c. It was hot! I'm still alive some 50-odd years later.
Data from the East Anglia Center for Climatic Research is suspect.
Historical data sets are more belieivable because today some people have adopted a political agenda and they've been twisting the scientific evidence to fit their story.
El Nino/La Nina had more influence on recent temperatures than greenhouse emissions.
Temperature readings from surface stations are suspect because many arre improperly positioned and failed to take into account the "heat island" effect of major cities.
It's not about the science. It's about ideological position. Those pushing man-made climate change want to control what kind of food you eat, what kind of car you drive, what kind of house you live in. It's about power and control.
