Y2Kyoto: The Mann Season

1. Oops… Mann broke established Climate Science protocol by making a prediction that could be verified before he retires.
   Nice to have the results before it’s time for his annual performance review.

   1. Yep, every time Mikey opens his mouth, he proves yet again that he’s an idiot.

   2. Name every weather disturbance, voila.

2. WTAF does a tree ring counter know about hurricanes? Answer, just as much as anybody else, not much.

   1. The exact same amount that a fruit fly geneticist knows about climate change.

      1. Nobody is as useless as Suzuki, he made the CBC even more unwatchable, hard to do.

         1. Suzuki would be pulling wings off of fruit flies in the basement of some 3rd rate Vancouver high school if it wasn’t for the CBC.

         2. I wish I could swap carbon footprint with Suzuki, I hear he’s livin’ pretty good.

3. Hey Mann,

   So what?

   It’s all weather.

4. Why does anyone care what a lying discredited POS like Mann has to say?

5. Isn’t there someone Mike Mann can sue into oblivion for being wrong again?

6. Named storms?!? Now they name every fart brussels sprout eaters let rip.

   They used to only name hurricanes. Then they started naming tropical storms. Now they are naming some tropical depressions just in case they become tropical storms. Pretty soon my little joke above won’t be a joke anymore.

   1. That’s no joke but it is funny.
      Veggie people gotta eat beans to get a semblance of protein.
      Nobody farts better than a bean eater except maybe those sprout gobblers.

   2. Wait until they start naming raindrops!

   3. It rained and snowed in CA last week. Wait. No … it was an “atmospheric river” … which became a “bomb cyclone” !!! Oh my!!! And some low spots on remote roads flooded, oh my!! And Mammoth mountain received the deepest Nov. snowfall EVER !!! In the HISTORY of CA’s Gavin Newsom’s certified “neverending drought”.

      Yeah … the language has been colored BRIGHT RED like the ever more scary-looking temperature maps.

      1. Don’t forget the “historic” snowfall in central Ontario.

7. I notice the mention is about named storms during the hurricane season not named hurricanes. Considering the modern penchant for giving a name to a lot of storms the “prediction” means absolutely diddly squat, typical for Mann and his ilk.

   1. To quote Maxwell Smart: “Missed it by THAT much!!!”

      [there were a total of 18 “named storms” during the 2024 North Atlantic Hurricane Season]

   2. Exactly right!
      Even if Mann’s prediction was “close to the dart board,” you’d have to take into consideration the severity of the storms. Maybe you had 33 named storms, but named storms can be anything from a tropical depression to a cat 5 hurricane. You’d have to ask how many of those storms have been low-level tropical storms to get a clearer picture on how serious “climate change” really is.

8. Well … it only follows since 2024 was what? … “The third straight HOTTEST YEAR ON RECORD in a row” (sic). Very (sic)

   1. Environment and Tossing Virgins into Volcanoes Canada, I am certain, has a news release template that only the year is changed. Each year is declared the hottest on record like clockwork.

9. Like the famous butterfly scientist from Stanford who consistently made hysterical and wrong predictions, it doesn’t mater to the congregation, the Kool-Aid is consumed regardless. I’d bet his students, if he still lowers himself to actually lecture, idolize him. In academia and public employment no one is accountable for the integrity of their work when they are “players” of the in crowd. Anyone practicing sound science outside the tent is targeted, shunned, defunded, censored, or never receives the golden touch of tenure.

10. I’m guessing that the model used to produce the 33 named hurricane scenario is the RCP 8.5. It’s the unrealistic, high emissions scenario model they use to predict catastrophic, apocalyptic tales. Then those tales are shipped around to media who publish the results as if they were “expert” predictions. This nonsense has been going on for years.

    Here’s a brief description of the RCP 8.5 and why credible scientists, journalists and politicians aren’t taking it seriously anymore:

    https://financialpost.com/opinion/pushing-worst-case-climate-scenario

    “Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5” (RCP 8.5) is a global warming trajectory trotted out by the Trudeau government, publicly funded institutes and climate activists when they want to raise public alarm about climate change….an article in Nature in January 2020 that was later cited by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change described RCP 8.5 as a scenario that “paints a dystopian future” that has become “increasingly implausible with every passing year.””

    1. And that is why they cling to it so desperately.

       1. I think of models based on RCP 8.5 as the equivalent of a Grimm’s fairy tale for adults. Exaggeration and hyperbole to scare adults about a boogeyman like a fairy tale scares children about a big, bad wolf. For “the greater good”, of course. The greater good meaning more power, control and wealth for the ruling class and corporate class at the expense of everyone else.

          To stick with the metaphor, it’s the megalomaniac control freaks running the climate change hysteria who are the real big, bad wolves.

11. Mannsplaining: A climate crook posing as a scientist so he can ruin your life.

12. When can the stonings begin? That would fix the false prophets

13. He talks of named storms, not hurricanes. There was a switch to naming storms a few years ago to make the numbers look more scary.

    1. Similar to the switch from Global Warming to Climate Change.
       Warming isn’t happening (polar ice caps not gone by 2015, etc) hence the need for a new label. One thing we do know is that climate is always changing. So now we can blame anything and everything on carbon dioxide, aka plant food. Warm, cold, wet, dry, windy, calm?… it’s all your fault! Now eat bugs and pray to the windmills.

       1. Don’t forget the switch from climate change to climate crisis or climate emergency, at least here in Europe.
          Also, some UN bigwig declared a while back that the world was boiling and I recently read on some regime media site that the world is baking.

          1. or “the planet is boiling.”

14. this POS mann killed Dr. Tim Ball and actual climate scientist just as surely as if he shot him dead.

15. 33

    A number significant to folks who want to rule the world.

    They will make it hit 33, as ‘predicted’.

    1. Brussels sprout eaters are standing by, just in case.

       1. Had some delicious baked cheesey garlic Brussel sprouts at the Keg in Edmonton a little while ago. Heavy on the garlic so I stunk from head to tail! Apropos these little green gems, a friend of mine once mused, “if farts were visible, they’d look like Brussel sprouts”. True ‘dat!

          1. LOL! Thanks for that, Eskimo.

             Next time, try Brussels sprouts sautéed with Carolina Reaper peppers. Flame thrower, baby. Flame thrower!

16. And Mann still dare not set foot in Canada for fear he might get be arrested and forced to pay the money he owes the estate of Tim Ball. Says it all really.

17. If you are intrested in the actual science, here is the undisputed authority. Dr. Ryan Maue has plotted the global hurricane frequency and intensity dating back to 1980.
    No change.

18. Weird that he refers to himself in the third person. Mann is such a publicity hound and lousy scientist.

    1. I heard he also refers to himself as a Nobel Prize laureate, which is false.

19. The Prof is in the pudding.

20. Notice how there’s not a peep from the corrupt media on Mann’s failed prediction?
