As of 1999, NASA showed no net warming from the 1870’s to the 1970’s, and showed 1877 as the warmest year from 1866 to 1976.

The IPCC showed that the warmest period of the last thousand years was in the 13th century, and that all recent warming occurred before the year 1940.
There was no evidence of a human influence on climate, and that was no use for funding or political influence. So the decision was made to get rid of the Medieval Warm Period, and create a hockey stick of recent warming.
IPCC participant Jay Overpeck said in his email to Professor Deming, “We have to get rid of the Medieval Warm Period.”
Michael Mann was up to the task, and he did exactly what Overpeck wanted him to do – he erased the Medieval Warm Period.
But that wasn’t enough to make the Hockey Stick. Mann needed some help from his buddies at NASA, James Hansen and Gavin Schmidt. They had to create about 0.6C warming from 1850 to 1976 – which they did by altering their own data.
Hansen and Schmidt erased all of the warm years before 1880, and massively cooled all of the remaining years before 1970.
Hansen and Schmidt created the blade of the hockey stick by tampering with their own data, just as Mann did with the proxy data to get rid of the MWP and LIA.
The massive climate fraud we are currently experiencing didn’t just happen. It required two decades of planning and collusion to make it happen. Gavin says that is is no big deal that he nearly doubled 1880 to 1999 warming, hid the pre-1880 warmth, adjusted data far outside of his own error bars, and declared hottest year ever by a couple of hundredths of a degree.
Progressives play the long game. The march toward Prohibition started half a century before 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified by congress.

It’s surprising that a coal / oil billionaire hasn’t taken NASA / GISS / and the erm, gentlemen concerned, to court over this. Litigate and either win uncontested or drag the bastards into court to ‘defend’ their data.
Good idea, let independent mathematicians and statisticians examine the data in a legal setting, rather than “Weather Men”. That should settle the argument one way or the other.
Hey CheshireRed! Maybe not a bad idea — except that the people who appoint the judges and issue their paychecks are the same people who pay GISS to distort the records. I would love to have a truly independent judiciary, but all the evidence seems to point the other way. For example, if we actually had an independent judiciary, one of the current Presidential candidates would be in jail awaiting trial for mishandling classified information.
On that march toward Prohibition by those other primitive zealots, I just crunched numbers on the Prohibition Party. In 11 election campaigns they averaged 1.6% of the popular vote, and managed to change the Constitution to make beer, wine and whatnot a federal felony for nearly 14 years. None of their top candidates was ever elected. During the struggle over prohibition enforcement, asset-forfeiture was introduced that deepened the depression and shut down all banks before FDR was sworn in. The Ozone Hole frenzy was also vicious, and after a bunch of voluminous laws were passed, no visible change has taken place and the matter is never mentioned anymore.
There is a good reason why our public schools don’t teach kids much about Prohibition. Anyone unfamilair with the full story should take some considerable time to study it. Progressives are using the same framework today that gave us the 18th Amendment a century ago.
Hey gator! There is another reason why the 18th Amendment is seldom mentioned, or mentioned in passing. When the 18th was passed, it was done so because the Constitution did not authorize the Feds to control alcohol, and everyone knew that an amendment was needed to grant that authority. These days, most people are not aware that delegated federal powers are limited to only a handful of powers. For example the federal laws against drugs — the authority for the feds to outlaw drugs is just a seized power. It has no legal basis. One cannot study the 18th in depth without realizing that many of the current laws are not actual legal under the Constitution.
You mean Obamacare is not Constitutional? Color me shocked.
In how many different ways? The Supreme Court says it is authorized as tax legislation. The Constitution says all tax legislation MUST originate in the House of Representatives. Obamacare originated in the Senate.
Case closed.
Maybe the 1981 graph below was published by another group called “NASA”? ;-)
Remember that it was two Canadians that destroyed the Hockey Stick Graph.
True. The 19th Century British government caused these problems by encouraging and subsidizing Scottish migration to the New World. If it weren’t for the two meddlesome Scots and troublemakers like Tony we could all be living in blissful ignorance (and I wouldn’t have to come here regularly to slap Bobby and other warmist trolls).
For Bobby…
I’d be interested in NASA’s explanation for temperature increases BEFORE 1975 being caused by co2 increase. That is, ignoring for the moment that there is no empirical evidence that co2 level has EVER had any impact on our global temperature, even during geologic periods when it was 10 to 20 times higher than now.
We will NEVER get to the Jetsons by restricting our society to the Capability of the Flintstones!!! We need Optimization of the Capables, not forced implementation of the Incapables!
North America has a lot of Fossil Fuel and by working together, the WORLD is our Oilster!!!
The Climate Cult should be up on charges of Fraud!
How much CO2 do the Saudi SAND Forests convert to O2 for the World, as Compared to Canada’s Boreal Forest?
Whose should we REALLY shut down???
