It has also raised questions about the validity of the global temperature record used to demonstrate global warming, based on email that scientists used a "trick" to "hide the decline".
Members of the groups in the middle, however — the vast majority of people — are likely to adjust their views on global warming based on irrelevant, subjective factors like the current temperature.

The risk of hitting the highest upper estimate for global warming based on current levels of carbon dioxide emissions is now so high that it is equivalent to tolerating the risk of 10,000 fatal aircraft crashes a day, according to the 17 "Earth League" scientists and economists who have signed the joint statement.
We use the concept of radiative signatures to investigate the source of the radiative perturbation during the drought, relate the signatures to expected changes due to anthropogenic warming, and assess the cause of warming based on observed changes in the surface energy balance compared to the period 2001 2012.
In other words, most Americans have opinions of global warming based on what Stephen Colbert calls "truthiness" -- which comes from the gut, rather than from facts -- and can't even explain why they believe as they do.
Andrew Jones, co-director of Climate Interactive, has run the numbers on his computer models that simulate how much the world warms based on how much carbon pollution is spewed.
This agrees with expected changes in A. tigrinum populations during the warming based on modern studies [ 41, 42].
The data were obtained from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Association NOAAandand each year in which "abnormal" warming (based on a +0.5°C threshold of the Oceanic Niño Index relative to the 1971-2000 base period [ 40]) began and continued through the next year was considered an El Niño year http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/ensostuff/ensoyears.shtml.shtml
(Clouds with warmer bases emit more long-wave radiation downward than colder clouds).
Julia (1977), a much warmer film based on a portion of playwright Lillian Hellman's memoirs, starred Jane Fonda as Hellman and Vanessa Redgrave as the title character, a noble activist who enlists her friend Hellman to aid in her efforts against the Nazis.
