In lieu of the term “Global Warming”, the committee has decided to adopt the term “Gullible Warming” for all future reports.

Fact: Temperature is a measure of the average energy within matter. The hotter the matter, the more energy.

Fact: Energy/Temperature has a tendancy to move from a higher state to a lower state. i.e. Higher temperature matter tends to lose energy to surrounding matter with a lower temperature.

Fact: The inner core of the Earth is about 7000 degrees Celcius. The mantle is just below 1000 degrees Celcius. Then there is the surface where we all live and we know how much cooler it is where we reside.

So, heat has always migrated from the inside of the Earth toward the surface. This will continue for millions of years to come. The effect is that this cools the Earth. The energy rising to the surface passes up through the atmosphere into the cold of space as radiated heat.

We also receive some heat from the Sun. This is the source that Gullible Warming pundits always quote. If /(when) the Sun stopped/(s) shining, we will cool at a faster rate. But for now, the Earth is still in cooling mode. Remember, the core is still at around 7000 degrees C. Maybe we are cooling at a faster rate! This would explain why “some” measured surface temperatures are higher now than 100 years ago. But we are still cooling.

Grrrrrrr.
