The claim that manmade climate change threatens bees is a brazen lie, one of many from the climate industry's FUD marketing campaign.

Wild bees have withstood glaciations & deglaciations, in times when the Earth was much colder, and warmer, than our climate today. They are not threatened at all by manmade climate change.

To understand a politicized issue like climate change, you need balanced information. If you think CO2 emissions are harmful, that means you aren't getting it. But I'm here to help.

Zeke effectively accused Spencer of cherry-picking. That was untrue: Spencer used all of the available data.
@GeraldKutney 2/4. The climate debate is about whether calling warm periods "climate optimums" (as scientists & historians have done for over a century) is correct (as I contend), or incorrect (as the climate industry pretends).
@GeraldKutney 3/4. The scientific evidence is compelling that rising CO2 levels, and consequent modest climate change, are both beneficial, just as Arrhenius predicted, over a century ago. Here are some relevant, high quality, papers: sealevel.info/negative_socia…
1/4. We've discussed this before, Mark. Don't you remember this thread?
E.g., do you REALLY believe that global average temperatures 3000 years ago are known with a 1σ uncertainty of just 0.2°C, and 2σ (95%) of just 0.4°C? You've GOT to know that's absurd!
The Hockey Team even completely erased Dansgaard-Oeschger event #1, which was the HUGE warming event, recorded in ice cores, that you can see in this NOAA plot:
1/4. Neonics are mainly used for treating seeds, before planting. They're not significantly present in pollen & nectar, so they do not affect pollinators.
The campaign against neonics is based on lies. It's really a campaign against food production, and hence against people.entomologytoday.org/2014/02/06/neo…
@BeeAsMarine @GreenpeaceUK @NehoNana 2/4. Also, beware of climate industry propaganda claiming that the current trend to slightly milder climates is harmful. The scientific evidence is compelling that the opposite is true.
@BeeAsMarine @GreenpeaceUK @NehoNana 3/4. Does that surprise you? Read the agronomy literature and see for yourself! There've been thousands of rigorous studies & excellent papers about it, of far higher quality than the politicized drek which dominates "climate science." Here are a few: sealevel.info/negative_socia…
1/18》The current slight warming trend is generally GOOD for crops, and rising CO2 levels are VERY GOOD for crops. Scientists call the periods of highest temperatures "climate optimums," because, by all objective measures, they're BETTER. scholar.google.com/scholar?as_sdt…
2/18》That includes times substantially warmer than now, like the Eemian Optimum, which is thought to have been, on average, several degrees warmer than our current climate. sealevel.info/Temperature-ch…
3/18》 We'll never get anywhere near that much warming, from the effects of burning fossil fuels. We might, plausibly, get 1°C of additional warming, but probably not in our lifetimes. Do you understand how miniscule that is?
