The claim: Atlantic Ocean cooling shows climate change is a 'lie' An Aug. 26 Instagram post shows a headline attributed to New Scientist that reads, "The Atlantic Ocean is Cooling at Record Pace, and Nobody Knows Why."The post also shows a meme with a nervous-looking person it labels as a "climate warrior" who is "caught in a lie." The post's caption includes the hashtag "#GlobalWarming." The post garnered more than 7,000 likes in more than two weeks. Our rating: False
The New Scientist article referenced in the post reported that seasonal cooling in part of the Atlantic Ocean occurred more

The usual BS from the usual climate toadies, nitwits, eco-loons, grifters and the obedient left wing propaganda media shills.

It's a seasonal variation---but we're too stupid to know how that could be. If it's seasonal, doesn't that mean it's happened before, repeatedly?

By now if you buy into global warming/climate change caused by humans, there's no hope for you.

Hmm. Lemme see if I got this right. They don't know why it's cooling but they do know it's warming?

However, if the Atlantic Ocean was warming, it would prove global warming.
If it's cold, it's just weather. If it's hot, it's "climate change".

Thermometers came into wide spread use in the late 1800's. This was just after the little ice age, from about 1300 to about 1850, ended. The global warmists ignore the variability of our climate and point to the warming since the little ice age ended. They totally ignore the Roman warm period and the medieval warm periods to state that this warming is unprecedented. They know little about climate variability and the many elements that cause this variability. Ocean currents are but one of the many variables that determine our climate.

And when the Atlantic was warm, before it began to cool, they said that was proof of global warming. Now that it's cooling they say it doesn't disprove global warming. See how that works: "warm and we win-cool and we don't lose."

If the Atlantic ocean was warming they wouldn't call it a seasonal variation. They would call it proof of global warming.

if climate journalists did not call every bit of strange weather proof of their useless models, people might not laugh at them so much. warming is warming, cooling is warming, unforecast floods mean warming, unforecast droughts mean warming, deserts mean warning, ice means warming.....

But if the ocean were warming it would be proof the climatistas are right.

And loads of ice and snow, along with sub-zero temperatures, does not mean it is cold outside. We just think it is. /sarcasm off

Sorry dearie. They predicted 20-25 storms this year. So far only 6, and two barely qualified. The seas were described as 'turbo charged' by intense heat for hurricanes. No mention of a cooling trend until the forecast was a bust.
