The Conversion of a Climate-Change Skeptic
By RICHARD A. MULLER
Published: July 28, 2012CALL me a converted skeptic.
No, you are an unrepentant liar. Less than a year ago you said that you never were a skeptic.

“It is ironic if some people treat me as a traitor, since I was never a skeptic — only a scientific skeptic,” he said in a recent email exchange with The Huffington Post. “Some people called me a skeptic because in my best-seller ‘Physics for Future Presidents’ I had drawn attention to the numerous scientific errors in the movie ‘An Inconvenient Truth.’ But I never felt that pointing out mistakes qualified me to be called a climate skeptic.”

“Let me be clear. My own reading of the literature and study of paleoclimate suggests strongly that carbon dioxide from burning of fossil fuels will prove to be the greatest pollutant of human history. It is likely to have severe and detrimental effects on global climate.” –

The big question is – Did you take money from the Koch Brothers on a fraudulent basis?
Muller reminds me of the ‘blind man’ who is ‘healed’ repeatedly, while traveling with the revival tent of salvation. What a con man.
Actually the above is total BS (in relative importance) compared to what you have found here with the GISS, NOAA graph manipulations which I believe is what he and his AGW freak daughter have presented as AGW. So far I aint seen any warming WHATSOEVER since 1998-2002 re AMSU so there is no current warming. They just dont seem to get it do they? I actually beleive there has been no significant warming since 1880 as nearly all those data seem to be fraudalent
Hey Mariana! I live in a rural area that has not changed much in a century, and the stations around me show zero warming over the past 100+ years. If you don’t like man made warming, move out of the city. 😉
I’m borrowing this Steve. Thanks
Thank goodness! I almost thought Muller had ended my 5 year search for the one documented former skeptic who turned alarmist. I guess I need to offer a reward.
The Truth about Richard Muller

“If Al Gore reaches more people and convinces the world that global warming is real, even if he does it through exaggeration and distortion – which he does, but he’s very effective at it – then let him fly any plane he wants.”
– Richard Muller, 2008
“There is a consensus that global warming is real. …it’s going to get much, much worse.” – Richard Muller, 2008
“Let me be clear. My own reading of the literature and study of paleoclimate suggests strongly that carbon dioxide from burning of fossil fuels will prove to be the greatest pollutant of human history. It is likely to have severe and detrimental effects on global climate.” – Richard Muller, 2003
I hate to use the same tactics as the AGW Hysterics, but … Muller has a conflict of interest. His wife runs a consulting company that advises businesses on things like the threat of global warming. If you you want to drum up business, what better way than to declare a big problem and back it up with tainted data..

He still thinks the internet is yet to be invented.
Further add Hillary Ostrov’s forensic examination of Dr Muller’s past statements and his business interests. It makes for interesting reading.
