    WUT??!!

    There’s so many things wrong with this, that I don’t even know where to begin!

    For the past several years, the ENSO has gone through a feedback loop. During the 3 year long La-Niña, we had temperatures that are normally associated with an El-Niño event. The ocean continues to absorb heat that should have long since made it’s natural journey into space.

    There’s no mystery. No missing percentage. Excessive greenhouse gases are doing only what excessive greenhouse gases can do. It’s simple math.
