NOAA shows the Earth red hot in December, with record heat in central Africa.
The map above is fake. NOAA has almost no temperature data from Africa, and none from central Africa. They simply made up the record temperatures.
Satellites show that NOAA’s” record hot regions in Africa were actually close to normal.

Gavin Schmidt at NASA claims the imaginary NOAA data has been replicated by many other institutions.
However, when Gavin is confronted about his obviously bogus temperature graphs, he defends by saying “it is not my data, I get it from NOAA.” In fact, all of the supposedly independent agencies get the lion’s share of their data from NOAA.
NASA and NOAA are engaged in the biggest fraud in science history, and this needs to end now that criminals are no longer in control of our government. Under the Trump administration, government employees stand to make huge amounts of money by whistleblowing fraud. Contact Kent Clizbe for details.

Hi Tony: Any idea how many whistle blowers are contacting Kent Clizbe?
Speed
Kent said that quite a few people have contacted him in response to my article.
Here’s one:
http://www.thegwpf.com/world-leaders-duped-over-manipulated-global-warming-data/
Mail Online picked it up too
Similarities to Jim Jones and the Cult of Climate Change –
1. Climate doomsayers believe they possess truths about the past, present and future and their truths cannot be disputed by anyone.
2. Doomsayers refuse to debate their belief. They call their dogma “settled science” and attack any critics that dare to whisper in the dark.
3. Just like a cult, doomsayers has a formal doctrine-setting body. The reports by the “ruling” body are thought to be the main source of authority and the texts of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are quoted as unholy scripture.,
4. Liberal doomsayers make you believe in their falsehoods. Bruce Jenner is now a woman. Rachel Dolezal is black. Elizabeth Warren is native American. The integrity of these people is just mind boggling. I remember when Obama told us, “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan.” And he said it with a straight face! Well, guess what Obama? My health plan isn’t the one I used to pay $225/month for. I’m paying $500 for second rate coverage. My car insurance is still $25/month (from Insurance Panda) and my renters insurance is still $10/month, thank god. So don’t you dare be messing those up too, Obama! The left lives in la-la land.
4. Staying with the Jonestown analogy, the climate change alarmists have created mythologies intentionally built on lies and half-truths. The fallacy can be ascribed as an appeal to everyday experiences, giving the listener some sense of truth-based teaching to mix with the soup of confusion.
Just as Jones and his small leadership group built lies on a foundation of lies and misinformation, the “sky-is-falling-crowd” spreads hoaxes to support their form of theology.
this is plain rediculous
Hey pal, actual NASA employee here. Not high ranking, not paid off, just letting you know that this whole analysis is…misguided. You realize the two differing graphs have different data sources, right? The “missing” Africa data is from the second dataset. It’s literally… written on the picture. Also, NASA at the very least has whistleblower protections for this exact thing. Anyone is encouraged to report flaws they see in data. We are non-partisan, just extracting data from satellites. Please don’t spread “news” for findings you clearly haven’t done your homework on yet.
Utter nonsense. How do you get land data temperatures without land data?
In case you missed it, one of NCDC’s two principal scientists just blew the whistle last week.
You raise an important question, Tony. Fortunately, this is something the scientists who created the dataset took into account when they made it.
The jist of it is that since scientists can’t stick a thermometer every single place on the planet, they rely on samples from inhabited areas, then do statistics on the data using models that are generated by actual observations based on the relatively stable geographic configuration of remote locations.
Put another way, you don’t have to measure every part of the Sahara Desert to understand that there will be relatively little temperature variation across the whole thing, because it is very flat, and full of sand.
Any significant local variations in surface temperature are detectable in real time using satellite photographs, since clouds form inside low pressure (colder) areas.
A great deal of care is taken in deciding where and how to measure surface temperature and how gaps in the data alter the conclusions and their confidence intervals.
It really is quite fascinating, and I invite you to learn more about these methods before dismissing them out of hand.
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/monitoring-references/faq/anomalies.php
The relevant section is reproduced below:
“Why use temperature anomalies (departure from average) and not absolute temperature measurements?
Absolute estimates of global average surface temperature are difficult to compile for several reasons. Some regions have few temperature measurement stations (e.g., the Sahara Desert) and interpolation must be made over large, data-sparse regions. In mountainous areas, most observations come from the inhabited valleys, so the effect of elevation on a region’s average temperature must be considered as well. For example, a summer month over an area may be cooler than average, both at a mountain top and in a nearby valley, but the absolute temperatures will be quite different at the two locations. The use of anomalies in this case will show that temperatures for both locations were below average.
Using reference values computed on smaller [more local] scales over the same time period establishes a baseline from which anomalies are calculated. This effectively normalizes the data so they can be compared and combined to more accurately represent temperature patterns with respect to what is normal for different places within a region.
For these reasons, large-area summaries incorporate anomalies, not the temperature itself. Anomalies more accurately describe climate variability over larger areas than absolute temperatures do, and they give a frame of reference that allows more meaningful comparisons between locations and more accurate calculations of temperature trends.”
“they rely on samples from inhabited areas, ——-
that there will be relatively little temperature variation across the whole thing,”
If you use temperatures from inhabited areas,…
… and smear them across huge tracts of uninhabited areas you are doing FAKE SCIENCE.. Period.
But that is NOAA/NASA/GISS for you in a nutshell. FAKE SCIENCE.
We thank you for pointing that out.
Tony can you post any info on the two whistle blowers? Thx!
Hey Erin, if I understand this correctly…
The NOAA Thermometer Data map contains colored blocks representing “GHCN-M bias corrected data”. “bias corrected” means it’s already been through a layer of fudge.
The NOAA Reported Percentile map is based on GHCN-M, ERSST, ICOADS, and a computer statistical model (! see link below).
The “record warmest” part of south central Africa appears to have no supporting GHCN-M data and isn’t adjacent to sea or ocean (ERSST, ICOADS) – it’s completely fabricated by a statistical model. The “record warmest” declaration is a result of comparing computer modeled projections to other computer modeled projections, no actual records!
In the OP, your (?) satellite data are used to refute the NOAA percentile map.
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/monitoring-references/faq/anomalies.php
Erin looks like the classic internet troll. pretend authority pushing a total lie. Seen too many of those.
Have you ever done the calculations of how much space seven .5 billion people take up on the earth using a 1 x 2 x 6′ space for every human on the earth it would take up less than .7 of 8 mi.³ I keep it mild could actually hold to 12,220,000,000 people that’s one cubic mile Nother thousand 900 not 20 not even to one cubic Mile
And that’s from a high school graduate 954-554-1093
I first saw that from Burt Rutan, that if you compressed all human biomass into a cube, you could set it down on the mall in DC, and walk around it in under an hour. I did the calculation myself, and got a slightly larger number, but you could still walk around it in under an hour. The point being that humans are not at all as significant a presence as watermelon greenies claim.
Hey, “pal,” actual NASA scientists worthy of the name dispute your silly nonsense, and NASA incompetence.

Deal with it.
Did you know that UAH temperature series matches the NOAA satellite data, showing ZERO WARMING between 2001 and 2015.
Only warming coming from El Nino ocean event, hence NOT CO2
Land data.. NOPE..
Land data is a FARCE at the very least, if not a FRAUD.
I’ve been imagining people sitting in their offices and worrying who may talk to the FBI first. They must be especially suspicious of the worker bees in the cubicles who have nothing to loose and much to win but I’m sure the guilty perpetrators are mainly watching each other. They have the most to gain from becoming whistleblowers and negotiating immunity or just a slap on the wrist.
Well said.
There is No law against fraud by the government.
Going back in time, Maryland’s highest court, the Court of Appeals, opined that taxpayers are not entitled to good government. It had to deal with corruption by the then Governor Marvin Mandel.
Forget it, Jake. It’s Annapolis.

You sir have spoken a truth beyond comprehension.
There actually is a new recent law giving the government the legal ability to lie to the citizens….I’m not kidding, they say it’s necessary for national security reasons…of course..
They do what they want and make up their own laws. Sad, but true.
Yes, Iben Hadd, there is.

That last was 3 years ago, and since nothing has been done it’s not for lack of a law, but for the lack of Congressional will.
nothing to loose ? lose, not loose.

Actually, this discussion about punctuation etc. is much more interesting than most of the posts I see, although it made me hesitate to post for fear of correction. Well, not really.
And let’s review what “Conspiracy” means under U.S. law, in case any of those “worker bees” you mentioned are hesitating:
1. Conspiracy is BROAD, much broader than Attempt or Accomplice Liability.
2. The gist is “an agreement between two or more people to commit a crime”. It doesn’t even require completion of the underlying crime, as long as there is an “agreement”
3. If the crime IS completed, then the actors face MULTIPLE charges.
4. Prosecutors love it, for all sorts of procedural reasons.
Conspiracy has become a term of contempt used of your enemies, when in reality it’s quite common in criminal law.
Criminal conspiracy does require that at least one illegal act be committed in furtherance of the intended crime. However, any one such act by any one of the conspirators can rope them all in.

Funny how EVERYONE who posts on these comments sections complaining about the cost of their health insurance, gets their car insurance from Insurance Panda for $25. Not $20, not $30, not from Geico or Progressive, it’s always $25 from Insurance Panda. I just want to know how much I can get paid for posting comments like that, and where do I sign up?
I noticed that too.
It is not fake. It is an artifact of the smoothing and fill-in algorithm. But it is so bad, perhaps it is not based on data at all, but is a model computation based on latitude and distance from the ocean under prevailing wind direction, nothing more. If it is a mix of real data and modeled output, we should be told.
You say it’s not fake. But that’s inconsequential. You can’t define something by saying what it’s not. Where there is no global climate data available, NOAA/NASA at a minimum chose to extrapolate climate data over vast geographic distances while claiming, or at least implying, their modeling algorithms were just as reliable as the real observed/on-site data collected. The real issue, with respect to the climate analytics put out by NOAA/NASA, is the characterization of the information. Is there transparency (which I will give you credit for pointing out) from our governmental science agencies and a truthful admission of what the data really represents? Discussion of this issue should be at the core of the climate debate.
If scientists deal with governments to get their agenda done, some lobbyist WILL bribe one or many of the people in congress, and most certainly the president. There’s nothing more reassuring than, as president, say “I can say for certain that man made global warming is the biggest threat to the world today. The science is settled.” That actually makes me want to give in a science lesson. AGW jerkoffs like Shia Lebourf or whatever his name and Dicaprio chant with Obama, white man bad, make global warming, pay billions to ‘fix the problem’ we save you from yourselves, you know, the typical liberal drivel, and that is just how it is in the federal government. I hope Trump takes note and embarrasses every crooked congressman or woman in the federal government. I hope that’s what he means by drain the swamp.
DiCrapio … FTFY
I never noticed DiCraprio giving even a tiny fraction of his fortune from C-grade movies to the Green Cause.
Spending on CO₂ producing good time, buying resorts 10cm above sea level, are more his contribution…..
Well said. It’s amazing that so many people can’t admit that they were part of a long con by the left. They think there is no way the government and media would lie to us to make an easy buck. People steal. That’s why we invented locks. People commit crimes. Hence why we make laws. Denial is one hell of a drug.
You don’t fit a model to fake made up manipulated data. You fit a model to real measured data (which should always be the measured value + uncertainty). A sufficient model can deal with bad measured data. In order to test your model you can withhold a subset of the data, sample the model at those data points and compared the model fit data to the measured data.
All of the above concepts and many more are very basic and common sense ways that scientists actually work with real measured data.
brian, perfect response and an honor to read it
Capitalize or lose cred.
You’ve never heard of GIGO, obviously. If you use computers in any of your models, then GIGO exists. But these models that you speak so highly of do not use real-world data, but rather the worst-case scenarios. And then they are used to mislead, rather than inform as to a worst-case scenario possibility. I leave you with one question, if mankind was to disappear from the earth, right now, and all of his carbon emissions should immediately cease, how much would it affect total CO2 output on a yearly basis? Percentage-wise.
It really depends upon your meaning of “disappear”. If mankind were to be suddenly buried under earth, mankind would “disappear” and not at all unlike dinosaurs which have already “disappeared.” Definitely, this “disappearance” of mankind would create a new pool of hydrocarbons, now, wouldn’t it. And, by the way, how are you going to “miraculously” immediately cease the production of subsequent gas or “farts”, if you will, from occurring.
And, if all of mankind is gone, who is going to measure the CO2 output on a yearly basis? Percentage-wise or OTHERWISE.
However,
GIGO is now WIWO.

In preparation for auditing NASA data?
“It is an artifact of the smoothing and fill-in algorithm. But it is so bad, perhaps it is not based on data at all, … If it is a mix of real data and modeled output, we should be told.”
Donald Kasper,
You have, probably inadvertently, described the concept of the mainstream media news product. In most news items we can discern a smothering of actual facts, for example someone’s name, a place and a date, provided they didn’t get them wrong. The rest is an artifact of careful craftsmanship, framing, omissions and editing with the goal of making the modeled “progressive” future palatable and desirable.
And it is not fake. It’s how they do it and it is very real. It would be nice if they told us but that would defeat the purpose, would it not?
Writers are employed to repackage and sell the news as a form of info-tainment, intended to grab the highest ratings possible in that time slot… they give zero fucks about accuracy as they are convinced that no one could possibly want truth bullets fired at them over dinner… they want people to feel comfortable and trusting so advertisers give ’em more cash for ads… and generally, people like to see and hear only things that reaffirm their already held beliefs… hence the skew that screws the news… No ads, no need to skew – another example of ‘follow the money to find the asshole…
With respect to man-made climate change, NPR has to be the biggest offender of the use of the term “settled science.” Yet they have no advertising.
Yes, it’s all about progressing “progress”, and that settles it.
DOE, EPA, NAS, NASA, NSF, UN, UNAS (United National Academies of Sciences), etc. have lied to the public about the source of energy (E) stored as mass (m) in cores of
1. Heavy elements like Uranium
2. Some planets like Jupiter
3. Ordinary stars like the Sun
4. Galaxies like the Milky Way
5. The now expanding Cosmos
. . . since nations and national Academies of Sciences were united under the UN on 24 Oct 1945.
Frightened leaders of nations knew Stalin took possession of the world’s total remaining inventory of atomic bombs when USSR troops captured Japan’s atomic bomb production plant at Konan, Korea in Aug 1945 ( during a worldwide news blackout of Asian news).
They were compelled to accept Stalin’s convincing argument that the whole world would be “BETTER RED THAN DEAD“ if they joined together to use Weizsacker’s flawed definition of “nuclear binding energy” to prevent anyone else from building another atomic bomb (just as it prevented Dr. Carl von Weizsacker from successfully building an atomic bomb for Hitler during WWII).
That was the beginning of the modern one-world government that President Donald Trump is devoted to taking down.
What about remote sensing??? We’ve been getting reliable IR readings from satellites for decades, so if that were the data source I would expect Scientist Clueless or NOAA to mention that.
In addition to all this lying, it is also a fact that Siberian temperature readings stopped with the collapse of the Soviet Union. I don’t know if these are now active but imagine what leaving out 80 to 100+ below from many monitoring points, and for many years, does to the global averages.
Haha. This is awesome.
Most of South America gets pink, with no data. !!
And dark blue over Europe disappears.

I was on your site.. I need some sources i can point to that a meteorologist I know could follow up and have a good discussion.
The same people who will call you “science deniers” in one breath will turn around and then tell you that life begins at birth and that women can be born in men’s bodies and vice-versa.
” that women can be born in men’s bodies and vice-versa ”
And it is a %100 certainty that that sometimes happens, as an artifact of the genitals being set on their course of development in the first trimester, and the brain’s development occurring throughout pregnancy and a life after birth.
?
Ok, so what is the test to determine whether a person is born the wrong gender, or simply delusional? Perhaps I was born in the wrong body and really am Napoleon.
Until a unique physiological difference between the brains of women and men is determined, then you can not distinguish this situation from any other delusional mental illness. However, if you can find such physical significant variation between genders, you will be opening up a Pandora’s box. Such a difference will be used by others to justify unequal representation of women and men in employment and pay. I would even expect some to use it to justify treating women as being subservient to men.
There are some 100 trillion cells in an average person, each encoded with that person’s gender. You can not change that coding, regardless of what atrocities you perform on the body. If the brain believes differently, then it is clearly a mental defect. Perhaps the focus should be in altering the brain to agree with the body.
I really don’t give a damn. They can do what they want as long as they don’t claim some special dispensation from others or society to accommodate the gender confusion or sexual preference.
And BTW Napoleon was a tiny little feller. Never realized just how small he was until I had the opportunity to inspect one of his uniforms. Officially they claim he was 5’2″. Based on the uniform I saw I suspect the man was no more than 5′ tall in his bare feet. The uniform was one that he wore towards the end of his first empire when he was in his early 40s.
I really don’t give a damn. They can do what they want as long as they don’t claim some special dispensation from others or society to accommodate the gender confusion or sexual preference.>>>
You mean like gender neutral bathrooms? The object of being a ‘special’ person is to get ‘special’ treatment. It’s a way to divide us so of course the Left loves it.
Yep! But I also mean tax payers paying for sex change operations and stuff like that.
I don’t have all the answers for you. But I do know people can be born with the genitals of both sexes – they’re called true hermaphrodites. And they have both XX and XY chromosomes throughout all of their many cells. And you’re right, even this coding cannot be changed. So before we judge, maybe we should give it a little thought that there might just be some circumstances out there that we just don’t fully understand yet. But we can take care in how we treat people, and how we talk about groups of people. I think that’s important.
what about satellite data? doesn’t that cover the planet?
You would think that the ground data temp map would be averaged with the satellite data, and regions of no data would be filled with satellite data. You would also expect a differential map of the delta from land and satellite data to show the difference and what is applied where, but hey, I tool climatology in the 80’s, so what do I know about real science.
Yes it does and shows they are LYING. Tony uses it often.
Satellite data shows either no change in the last twenty years or at most a slight decline in global temperatures. NASA refuses to use satellite data in their computations.
Thx so much ! Appreciate the useful info. I love sucking dick btw hmu
compare trends this century from fraudulent NOAA surface data, and satellite data.
I hope that answers your question.
This question is for the Change Fantasists, if know what causes climate change and you know how to reverse climate change, what is the metric by which you’ve succeeded? How will you know you have won?
As for me, I would be worried if the climate wasn’t changing. And, I think the Sun and volcanoes contribute to climate change.
The global atmospheric peak of co2 will be behind us. We have to bring this forward as quickly as possible.
Currently the sun and volcanoes are cooling the planet and have been for 50+ years.
By what metric would we “succeed”? If we keep global temperatures from rising more than 2°C by 2100 that would be a success.
You can go point by point by point, and none of the claims by the Climate Alarmists hold up under scrutiny.
Climate “Science” on Trial; The Smoking Gun Files

Climate “Science” on Trial; Confirmed Mythbusters Busted Practicing Science Sophistry

The LIES allowed by NASA Administrator Charles Bolden are a disgrace to his Annapolis Classmates and reflect on his lack of personal integrity.
For years I’ve heard military meteorologists say that many of NOAA’s published studies were basically pseudoscience. Now we have proof. President Trump should replace the leadership of both NOAA and NASA.
Not just the leadership, whole sale firings or maybe abolish the agency and start over.
History is very clear. The ONLY way that any bureaucracy EVER is reformed is its utter destruction. Minimum: fire everyone, put all the leaders in prison, close the agency, do not permit any other agency to hire the fired workers or duplicate the prior efforts.
Fire the entire National Weather Service? You think all forecasters working at WFOs have taken part in this charade? Most of them know it’s just a scam, unless the are liberals. Then they just ignore it. Forecasters that issue watches and warnings have no part of this data manipulation.
This has nothing to do with the National Weather Service
NASA primary goal was to make Arabs feel better about their historic contributions to science.
Having them follow the Global Warming B.S. as a matter of “science” is a continued mis-information effort, just like the first one.
I don’t understand this and have a few questions. How do you know that there are no thermometers in the places where NOAA says heat has increased? The smoking gun here seems to be that there are no thermometers in areas where scientists claim temps have risen. But nothing on this blog makes it clear to me why you believe that.
The little squares on the “land only” map are representative of the actual data stations.
Thanks for the question, moo. Sometimes what NOAA does is mysterious and sometimes skeptics need to back model in order to figure out what NOAA or GISS are doing. However, NOAA does provide us with quite a bit of information. NOAA does tell us what thermometers they use. Just because they do not use a thermometer does not mean that one does not exist. Skeptics often are able to go get the readings of missing thermometers. An increasing percentage of the time, NOAA does not actually get numbers from a thermometer, but rather they guesstimate what those thermometers might have said based on thermometers tens of kilometers — sometimes hundreds of kilometers, try 1600 km — away. We often find that thermometers not read are in rural areas and thermometers used to estimate their readings are in UHI-contaminated areas.
I am also a little unclear as to precisely where the measurements are made, and hence which areas have no station data and are therefore entirely infill.
I attach a map showing the siting of temperature stations. This map is a little unclear since it seeks to show how the number of stations has changed over the years. At one time I had a better chart/map.
But as you can see from the map, although Africa is sparsely sampled, particularly Northern Africa, there are many stations in the more Southern parts of Africa. It appears to me that there are some stations near to where it is claimed that there is no station data. See:
http://www.hashemifamily.com/Kevan/Climate/Stations.gif
That said, I am concerned by the extent of infilling that appears to go on.
Look at the map provided.
“Please note: gray areas represent missing data.”
I notice that there seem to be balmy tropical breezes among the palms on the eastern tip of Siberia. Wonderful what happens when there is no data.
Fire all the “climate scientists,” and hire more rocket scientists. Then maybe we wouldn’t have to beg the Russians for rides to and from the ISS.

You are hitting one of the most significant and shameful issues with the climate change fraud. A great amount of money that could be spent fighting real pollution/environmental issues that matter, like hard metals, and soil erosion is thrown down this black hole of corruption.
^That.
more ammo?
it’s a farce?
fake news?
Where can I find an extensive methodological critique of all the satellite “data” routinely cited by climate scientists? Maybe we need the new administration to fund a vetting of these crooked methodologies…
Check papers by Dr Roy Spencer and Dr Christy.
http://www.drroyspencer.com/research-articles/
I’m curious. You folks who think AGW theory is all a conspiracy. How could such a conspiracy be set up? How would it be possible to get scientists all over the world…totally disconnected from each other, working in widely separated laboratories, in very different disciplines…all on one page with the “falsified” data?
Is there a central hub of the conspiracy that sends out orders to all the climate scientists around the globe? What has prevented even ONE scientist from coming forward with any evidence of this conspiracy? Do the ringleaders of this plot somehow know in advance which scientists will be open to participating in the conspiracy?
Is there a central research center where huge amounts of data are fabricated in order to supply material for the thousands of research projects and the tens of thousands of papers and articles supporting AGW theory that have been published over the last few decades?
Is there a world authority that can tell all of the major scientific organizations around the globe that they have to endorse AGW as fact? Remember, these organizations don’t get grant money. So, how are they all somehow convinced to participate in this campaign of lies? Hell, the Geologic Society of America’s membership probably consists mostly of people in the energy industry, and even they have come out with a statement clearly endorsing the idea that the planet is warming and humans are the main cause. Why would they do that?
Have the millions of peripheral people…that scientists who review the papers, the editors and publishers of the papers, the science writers and other media people who write about the research, and, the smart people, the folks who read the papers and decide that they make sense…have ALL these people somehow been bought off or persuaded to join the conspiracy?
What force has been used to cause government leaders around the world, many of whom are complete enemies, to agree to set aside their differences in this case in order to advance the conspiracy?
Remember…the whole conspiracy falls apart unless each and every one of the things I’ve listed happens just as described…in absolutely perfect secrecy.
Seriously, HOW ON EARTH WOULD SUCH A THING BE POSSIBLE??
Your assertions are all incorrect.
Your paragraph one. 36000 scientists signed the Oregon petion, with hundreds of skeptical papers referenced.
The two most cited consensus papers are junk. The do not address the C in CAGW. They make statements that most skeptics agree with. They have been heavily criticised o, peer review.
Each paragraph below that of your writing is deeply flawed, making your conclusion nonsense.
Perhaps you could point out the per-reviewed work contradicting AGW theory that that rag-tag group of engineers, weather readers, and long retired-professor have published? Or even point out how many of those are actually doing any kind of research in the area of climate science?
Perhaps you should read the Climagate email in which Phil Jones, the head of the Hadley CRU, discussed “keeping the skeptical papers out of the peer reviewed journals even if it meant ‘redefining peer review itself!'”
Do you EVEN KNOW what HadCRU is ??? Or who Phil Jones is ???
Yet another IGNORANT, INCOMPETENT wastrel who has just listened to the MSM propaganda pap, and the non-science of the IPCC.
Once again your propensity for false statements, ( your attempt to marginalize all the PHD scientist who reference thousands of peer review reports as well as their own) which destroys any possible validity to your comment.
Try this. You only have about 200 hours minimum of research before any comment you make is even cogent.

The “Oregon Petition” was a fraud.
The petition and the documents included were all made to look like official papers from the prestigious National Academy of Science. They weren’t, and this attempt to mislead has been well-documented.
The included research paper was also made to mimic the style of the National Academy’s prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy journal.
With the signature of a former NAS president, and a research paper that appeared to be published in one of the most prestigious science journals in the world, many scientists were duped into signing a petition based on a false impression. In fact, the documents had been authored by Art Robinson, Sallie Baliunas, Willie Soon (both who receive funding from the oil industry) and Robinson’s son Zachary.
The petition was so misleading that the National Academy issued a news release stating that: “The petition project was a deliberate attempt to mislead scientists and to rally them in an attempt to undermine support for the Kyoto Protocol. The petition was not based on a review of the science of global climate change, nor were its signers experts in the field of climate science.”
NAS.. the leader are far-left operatives.
You can bet they didn’t ask their members.
They don’t represent science.. they represent politics.
That’s how that got there.
And, I suppose that is true of every major scientific organization on earth whose members do anything relating to climate science? They have all issued statement in support of AGW theory, you know.
Yes, it is.
The top of all these “science” groups are left-wing political animals.
That’s how it is.
Get over it.
I find it very strange that people are IGNORANT of these facts.
Let me guess…you’re a disciple of the Trump cult, aren’t you? The paranoia, the alternative view of how the world works gives you away.
I suspect that Kenji, a certified member of the Union of Concerned Scientists, has better qualifications than many who now call themselves, “Climate Scientists”
Orogeny, we are all concerned here. You simply must get in touch with Kenji. You have much in common.
Are you a paid retard or do you do it for fun?
Do your own research, lazy.
Unless, of course, you are only here to deny the reality. How does one acquire what he wants from “science”? Three words:
Funding, funding and..wait for it!……funding!
Dipshat.
No. am not a disciple of any cult
I am a scientist and engineering with 2 degrees and a PhD.
I’m in nobody’s cult, unlike you.
I go by what I see in the real data.
Data that obviously is of no interest to you.
Let’s see if you can produce one data that proves empirically CO₂ causes warming in a convective atmosphere.
The basis of your “religious” belief !!!
There is certainly no CO₂ signature in the satellite data, only the El Nino steps.
Nothing in the real tide data.
No CO₂ warming signature anywhere.
try again
Let’s see if you can produce one PAPER that proves empirically that CO₂ causes warming in a convective atmosphere.

Translation: “WAAAAAAAA!!!”
The Oregon Petition is exactly what it says it is, 36,000 documented scientists who say CAGW is bunk. Period.
Dr Soon, et al, neever received funding from oil companies, they received their funding from the Smithsonian.
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2015/02/23/greenpeace-enlists-justin-gillis-john-schwartz-of-the-ny-times-in-journalistic-terrorist-attack-on-willie-soon-miss-target-hit-smithsonian-instead/
You get your lies from what, Buzzfeed, DeSmog blog?
The Oregon Petion was not fradulant in the least. The scientists that signed it are not revoking their signatures at all.
In fact it list hundreds of peer review reports in support of the contention that CO2 is a beneficial gas, and the warming has been and will be net beneficial.
Observations well support this. Currently every crop on the planet grows 15 to 20 percent more food, on the same amount of land and water due to the increase in CO2. There is ZERO increase in the rate of SL rise, droughts, hurricanes, floods tornadoes.
The insane economically damaging policy of CAGW politicians, such as the Parris accord, will, according to IPCC calculations, have virtually ZERO affect on warming regardless.
Peer Pressure, Noble Cause Corruption, Confirmation bias, and Goverment Billions in agenda driven science for the purpose of global government and personal power, all combine to easily explain what you try to marginalize by referencing your distorted view of some grand conspiracy.
Orogeny, misleads with bullcrap since at NO TIME did the petition claims it was supported or endorsed by the NAS.
Quoting your dishonest crap”
“The included research paper was also made to mimic the style of the National Academy’s prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy journal.”
There was NO evidence that it was endorsed or supported by the NAS. There was NO NAS heading to the paper either.Plus you are a freaking LIAR anyway since the paper was published in a NON NAS publication:
Quoting the OREGON Petition website,
“Why was the review article published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons?
The authors chose to submit this article for peer-review and publication by the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons because that journal was willing to waive its copyright and permit extensive reproduction and distribution of the article by the Petition Project.”
You go on with more lies:
“With the signature of a former NAS president, and a research paper that appeared to be published in one of the most prestigious science journals in the world, many scientists were duped into signing a petition based on a false impression. In fact, the documents had been authored by Art Robinson, Sallie Baliunas, Willie Soon (both who receive funding from the oil industry) and Robinson’s son Zachary.”
You claim many were “DUPED” into signing an easy to understand,read paper on a NAS free website using a NAS free science journal.
I personally know some of the people who signed it,they made it clear they know what they were reading. You insult some of the most celebrated scientists of the 20th century such as Edward Teller and Freeman Dyson.
You are scum!
Not only that he lies about “oil” funding,which has been shown to be lies many times in many websites.
Finally Orogeny, fails to understand WHY the NAS made that statement,quoting you:
“The petition was so misleading that the National Academy issued a news release stating that: “The petition project was a deliberate attempt to mislead scientists and to rally them in an attempt to undermine support for the Kyoto Protocol. The petition was not based on a review of the science of global climate change, nor were its signers experts in the field of climate science.”
YOU like the NAS, attempt to insult the intelligence of the signers,who can read,see and think the obvious about the petition itself. The NAS was firmly in the AGW camp,which is why they tried to make smearing statements they have done.
15 years ago,when I first investigated the claim that the Petition Project was using a page similar to the NAS page,I looked at it to see NO evidence that it came from the NAS, was NOT supported or endorsed either and didn’t have the NAS heading anywhere on it either.
Here is what the Petition statement actually reads,at this link:
Instructions for Signing Petition
http://www.petitionproject.org/instructions_for_signing_petition.php
Meanwhile the NAS was full of crap when the made this stupid statement:
“The petition was not based on a review of the science of global climate change, nor were its signers experts in the field of climate science.”
Really you mean the following people are not qualified to research and discuss weather and climate?
From the Oregon Petition website:
“Atmosphere, Earth, & Environment (3,805)

Orogeny, you are scum of the earth.
Here is the LINK to the Oregon Petition website readers, go there and look through it and see how big a liar Orogeny is:
http://www.petitionproject.org/index.php
Check out the Qualifications of Signers section of the website. Orogeny make it clear he NEVER read this section, as it exposes the Crap the NAS made when they said this:
“The petition was not based on a review of the science of global climate change, nor were its signers experts in the field of climate science.”
Qualifications of Signers
” Signatories are approved for inclusion in the Petition Project list if they have obtained formal educational degrees at the level of Bachelor of Science or higher in appropriate scientific fields. The petition has been circulated only in the United States.
The current list of petition signers includes 9,029 PhD; 7,157 MS; 2,586 MD and DVM; and 12,715 BS or equivalent academic degrees. Most of the MD and DVM signers also have underlying degrees in basic science.
All of the listed signers have formal educations in fields of specialization that suitably qualify them to evaluate the research data related to the petition statement. Many of the signers currently work in climatological, meteorological, atmospheric, environmental, geophysical, astronomical, and biological fields directly involved in the climate change controversy.
The Petition Project classifies petition signers on the basis of their formal academic training, as summarized below. Scientists often pursue specialized fields of endeavor that are different from their formal education, but their underlying training can be applied to any scientific field in which they become interested.
Outlined below are the numbers of Petition Project signatories, subdivided by educational specialties. These have been combined, as indicated, into seven categories.”
The link shows a lot more:
http://www.petitionproject.org/qualifications_of_signers.php
The NAS at the time were desperately trying to smear the Project with dishonest and even lying statements.
Now you understand why I called Orogeny a scum.

A deep thinker you are not. A propagandist you appear to be.
One word answer: Money. There’s money in agreeing with conclusions put forward by governments, which in response to collusion provide research positions and funding.
It is clear to people who value personal freedom that the” global warming” craze is now and forever about money for people who can’t earn a living with a real job.
These individuals jump on the money train and independently bubble up one after the other to offer self-appointed “expert opinion”
The inane question”HOW ON EARTH WOULD SUCH A THING BE POSSIBLE??” shows a complete ignorance about human nature. Companies, individuals , gangs, governments collude at all times so they can make a profit without destroying each other. They never have to meet to fix prices since that illegal. They collude to advance their agenda just like the gravy train academics who HAVE BEEN OUTED when they falsify and actually fabricate data that these other fools reference
It’s called cold hard cash. Money, government grants. It’s amazing what it will align people to do to get it. Climate change consists of nothing more than Spring, Summer, Winter and Fall. Hell, when I was a kid in the early ’60s scientists were saying how we were going into an ice age. It never happened. Neither has global warming. And it won’t. It’s all used for money and controlling populations through taxing (money) for so-called “carbon footprints”. But people are like sheep (don’t believe me? Look at the fashion industry. Sheep.) Wake up and start thinking for yourself. The truth will set you free.
Real scientists that did talk up got ostrichised and then fired.
(yes, I know the correct word)
Actually, the earth has historically (over milliins of years) changed regularly ftom temperate (what we have now) to ice age and back againbin cycles… ours has been one of the longest temperate windows between ice ages in the earth’s history… seeing as ice ages are cyclical, it can reasonably be expected that what follows, is in fact another ice age… it is possible that this warming is only temporary and actually precursor of the process that follows… volcanic, seismic and tsunami events are dramatically on the rise… it could be said that pumping exhaust from cars, oil spills, methane farting humans and domestic food animals (both numbering in the billions), massive reduction of rain and other great forests (the lungs of the atmosphere along with the oceans, large scale extinction of various eco systems (which are in the way of progress), and nuclear blasts of the 20th century, ciuld possibly, just maybe, have some negative impact on the conditions of life here on earth… whether these things are causing the warming the earth is currently undergoing (which is only just starting to alter the seasons too – causing the drought that blew up syria for example ), is open to debate. If anyone could be certain that the current increase will continue at pace, absolutely certain – then basically, we are all fucked… but they can’t be certain because it has never before happened in recorded history…. meanwhile, scientists (who tend to extrapolate and freak out, only to be embarrassed later) have noticed it, freaked out, reported it, and now are undervpressure to find the source and nullify it… i guess it was considered most beneficial to link it to human activity, as that could pressure governments to legislate things that really would benefit the planet and potentially even save our skins… problem is, doing things the harmful way is so much cheaper than doing things the beneficisl way, and business men obviously dont need to be saddled with even more overheads – they get fucked enough already – so they gotvtogether their own studies, found the flaws in such studies and immediately cried foul… and who vould blame them? People start businesses to forge a better lifecfor themselves and their loved ones – and we are All sick of lefties preaching at us (they haven’t shut up or listened to anyone but themselves since 1959)… so here we stand… in this stupid mess because a bunch of scientists were pressured to say they were 100% sure, when they Should have said ‘maybe’… and yes, the pressure is from grant givers of many different kinds – truth is, ALOT of science is a MAYBE, and their failure to publicly admit that is what has made people stop trusting them… silly stupid pride filled and foolish – it cost them their most important asset – the trust of the masses….
That^
Thanks so much for sharing. I love sucking dick btw hmu
Hi Orogeny,
I don’t think conspiracy is the right word. More like “momentum”…and “too big to fail”. Once a few scientists realize that they could get paid and make a healthy living to do this research, it has slowly grown and snowballed. And you really have to follow the money trail. All the new journals that have popped up, the editors, and staffs working for the journals, all the journalists and science writers (and reviewers are the same group of people from whom the research comes from in the first place) — they aren’t on the periphery. These are all people who lose their jobs and livelihoods if “global warming” is not true. It is not easy to find a job as a science writer in some field where you have no expertise.
And while in most cases data is not flat out fabricated, when researching a subject is your life, there is too much pressure for it to be true. Negative results are rarely published in any scientific discipline. You have to publish something, so you publish the best you can. Its an intense, competitive field…I don’t doubt the honesty of the actual researchers, but the system is setup to result in a lot of “momentum” in one direction.
Governments are a different story…clearly the global warming story has been supported by the left-learning governments of the world because it fits their economic goal of global redistribution of wealth. There are multiple ways to address the carbon emissions. It just so happens that the left-learning parts of the EU and USA have piggy-backed onto the science to implement economic policy. And if the USA is willing to hand some of its wealth over to smaller nations (or China) because we feel bad about carbon emissions, who is going to say “No thanks” to that? You could also argue that if the global warming story is absolutely true, then a better way to handle it is to enforce strict law preventing emission of CO2 immediately – stop emitting or go to jail. But that’s not really the popular govt action because it doesn’t fit their ideology as well.
Its just such a huge business now that there is no going back.
You can pick any hot science field and its a similar story…no matter how good the intentions, the system is set up for propagation of the “story”. Just think about cancer for example…if somebody came up with the miracle pill today that killed all cancer cells (not going to happen)…but just consider…how many trillions of dollars and millions of jobs would disappear from the economy?
It would be interesting to find out just how much money has going into perpetuating the AGW farce, both over the table and UNDER the table.
Those who have bent over for it have been richly rewarded.
And we know from people like that Christiana Figueres witch, exactly what the agenda is all about.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-02-03/un-official-admits-global-warming-agenda-really-about-destroying-capitalism
So don’t be GULLIBLE and get sucked in, Oro, you will end up looking like even more of a fool.
typo…
has going -> has gone
Figueres admitted that the Global Warming conspiracy set by the U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change, of which she is the executive secretary, has a goal not of environmental activists is not to save the world from ecological calamity, but to destroy capitalism. She said very casually:
“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution.”
“
I just read that ZeroHedge Article. Almost that exact quote about destroying capitalism was used in the documentary The Changing Climate of Global Warming. Here is the video clip.
https://youtu.be/QowL2BiGK7o?t=50m4s
Even if global climate change is truly occurring, how are you going to get 10 billion people to stop using or creating heat. I for one don’t want to live in an unheated teepee. This whole thing is a scam. The Earth has gone through many changes and humans have survived.
“redistribution of wealth ” ?
So to who exactly got the wealth redistributed to ?
Are you serious?

Al Gore received a great deal of wealth.
Very good info thanks so much! I love sucking dick btw hmu
It’s not “Momentum” or “too big to fail.” It’s defined as “Noble Cause, Corruption “. They’re engaged in it because they “believe” they are saving the environment by achieving the ultimate CAGW goal, which is CO2 taxation, which will lead to lowered use, rationing at the worst, and subsidized “green energy.” And they are handsomely rewarded by governments via their “research grants” which will pay their salaries and “research-related expenses” for their entire careers.
It’s very simple really !
Meanwhile, the scientists’ enablers – the political elite and their political enablers – the billionaire campaign funders – get billions upon billions more from the bulk of the proceeds from the CO2 taxes collected.
Again, it’s all really very, very simple.
And the original concepts have their roots back in the 1960’s. It evolved into global warming in the 1980’s and came to fruition in 1993 when Al Gore, Clinton’s VP, saw to it that all government scientific research grants had to have not only a global warming component but had to demonstrate global warming was occurring and caused by increasing CO2 levels. Otherwise your funding was cutoff and you were ostracized.
Dr.’s William Gray, the father of modern hurricane research, and Roy Spencer, co-developer of satellite temperature measurements, have testified so. Many others have too.
To the “useful idiots” it’s about the environment
To the money and power brokers, it’s about money and power.
It’s really, very, very simple.
Exactly right. It’s no different than the witch doctor scamming the villagers corn crop during an eclipse
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Easy, Orogeny. It is not an “organized conspiracy”, any more than student liberalism is an organized conspiracy. AGW is a function of liberalism, which is taught in our colleges and universities by inbred professors. Their students then become brainwashed and go on to be professors without ever experiencing life outside of academia. Inbred! True science studies evidence which results in a conclusion. Climatology begins with a conclusion and attempts to prove in any way possible. Collusion is not necessary.
But it IS collusion; if you bothered to read ANY of the climate emails you would KNOW that. The head scientists globally, were emailing each other about “how to hide the decline, alter historical temperature records, disparage skeptical scientists, and keep their papers OUT of peer reviewed journals – even if they have to redefine what peer review is!”
Get up to date man.
Sorry : ClimateGATE emails.
Sure it ends up that way, leftists are inherently dishonest. It just doesn’t necessarily start that way, the indoctrination coming from the left is ridiculous, yet without a balancing force, these kids don’t know any better.
The thing about corrupt scientists all around (the) western world
is the same as with
all the corrupt journalists all around the (guess what?Western) world
promoting war after war,revolution after revolution while being 100% aware that all those war
against
Jugoslavia((horseshoe plan=reason to attack YU=never existed)
Lybia-scorched earth/ghaddafi killing own people=never existed
Iraq-incubator report=hoax
Several sovereign goverments in south america being overthrown by dictators who were “educated” in the school of americas in the usa.
Even when the USA got caught lying(yellow cake)
the MSM didn’t gave a shit,and promoted the next lie
that was invented 5 minutes later-the WMD lie.
Then they tried to attack Syria with lies,though these lies had been exposed instantly by legendary journalist Seymour Hershs “Red Line,Rat Line” article.
MSM refused to print Mr Hershs article,though this article would
have been the biggest thing since watergate.
Then there is the killing of 100.000+++ christians years after year after year.MSM refuse to talk about it.
Then there is the MSM bashing christianity 24/7 and being hypercritical about religion,but as soon as they have to deal with islam(where pedophilia,headchopping,gender & religious apartheid is norm)which every dumb iliterate person will recognize as evil shit
and all of the supersmart journalists call this crap religion of peace.
Then they blamed Putin for attacking Georgia,while in fact it was Sakashwhilli who started the war.
And thats how science work.
The very same way.
If you want to know what a bunch of ignorant human crap
academics are,just look how they treated traditionel chinese medicine.
Instead of honestly researching wether it works or not,or at least-why
this medicine was so successfull in a thousands of years old civilisation,
doctors called it crap–
until some of these ignorant pricks got desperate when theygot very ill,no cure available ,few month to live and went to china as last hope to survive–and they survived and then learned their lesson, started researching and promoting chinese medicine.
Or research what they(academics) did to semmelweiss-
a revolutianary medicine who has proven times and times again by lowering birth/surgical mortality 90%+ with his hygienical system.
Though he was right times and times again he was defamed,attacked and ruined,in the end they put him in an asylum and died
(with broken fingers and arms and chest.)
If you realise how people are( zero integrity,group think,money,honor,wanna feel good by saving the world)
you”ll stop asking.
btw-there was a russian deligation at a ipcc meeting telling a completely different story about global warming.
They got choked by the ipcc.
Frank Reich, too.
He has almost been scrubbed entirely from memory.
He was killing cancer and dissolving stones with soundwaves.
But THAT would kybosh the billions spent on “cancer research”.
Reich also confirmed the viral nature of certain cancers but was laughed off….until word of….”HPV”….got out.
That^
Follow where the research money comes from. Scientists don’t work for free.
Correct. It’s a function of the move in recent decades to grant-based funding models for science. The model mitigates against the null hypothesis.
Consider: I obtain a grant to investigate whether X is a concern for mankind. In one example, I find that it’s not really a worry at all and any effect is likely to be small. So, where do I get my next grant?
In another example, I find that X is potentially a major threat to mankind’s continued existence and I need a further, larger grant to develop a better computer model, using more expensive hardware and a larger team of researchers.
It doesn’t require a “conspiracy” in the traditional sense of the word – merely a sufficient number of people who’s self-interest trumps their questionable personal ethics.
Consider also: if I developed and sold a computer model which I said could predict, with a high degree of certainty, where the Dow Jones would be in 2, 5, 10, 50 years from now and started selling it to Joe Public, would you believe me? How long would it be before I was rooming with Billy the Basher in the Big House?
Lol. “All” scientists don’t agree on global warming anyway. The 97 percent they have cited is from thier own hand picked group. There are just as many decent scientists who don’t agree that the earth is warming by man mad causes. Climate change is a whole other issue. Any idiot can see the climate is changing. The question is, can man do any thing about it and the answer is no.
HISTORY OF THE SCAM
******************************************************
The goal is to come up with a UNIVERSAL fear/reason to institute World Government. Once you understand the reason everything else makes sense.
******************************************************
Former World Trade Organization Director-General Pascal Lamy tells you point blank that the EU is the template for the desired World Government and it has been in the plans since the 1930s.
Lamy is quite blunt in stating national sovereignty is passe.
Lamy indicates that an European Union like super state is the goal.
This is what CAGW — Global warming is really all about. We have all seen the political message morph from Global Warming to Climate Change to Weather Weirding.
As H.L. Mencken said:
“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed — and hence clamorous to be led to safety — by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
In other words create a crisis to order to implement Diocletian’s Problem-Reaction-Solution
Mencken also warns “The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it.”
The Club of Rome put this concept in another form:
“In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill….All these dangers are caused by human intervention….and thus the “real enemy, then, is humanity itself….
…humanity requires a common motivation, namely a common adversary in order to realize world government. It does not matter if this common enemy is “a real one or….one invented for the purpose.”

Noel Brown is the former Director of the United Nations Environment Programme, North American Office.

USA UN Framework Convention on Climate Change — signed 12/06/92
here’s their official definition:
That’s from the official UN Framework Convention on Climate Change
The IPCC mandate is similar:
So it never was about understanding the climate. It was really about ‘options for mitigation and adaptation. ‘ and this is the change wanted by the Globalists like the UN, the World Bank, and the WTO.
The IPCC’s ROLE
So there it is again. ONLY “human-induced climate change” is of interest and that is why you see very little work done on natural climate change.
Worse it is the custom and practice of the IPCC for all of its Reports to be amended to agree with the political summaries. The facts are as follows.
The Summary for Policymakers (SPM) is agreed “line by line” by politicians and/or representatives of politicians, and it is then published. After that the so-called ‘scientific’ Reports are amended to agree with the SPM. This became IPCC custom and practice of the IPCC when prior to its Second Report the then IPCC Chairman, John Houghton, decreed,
“We can rely on the Authors to ensure the Report agrees with the Summary.”
This was done and has been the normal IPCC procedure since then.
So, IPCC custom and practice dictate that the AR5 report will be edited to match the SPM. This custom and practice enabled the infamous ‘Chapter 8′ scandal so perhaps it should – at long last – be changed.
Such adjustment of Reports to agree with the SPM is stated in Appendix A of the AR5. It says
This is completely in accord with the official purpose of the IPCC.
The IPCC does NOT exist to summarize climate science and it does not.
The IPCC is only permitted to say AGW is a significant problem because they are tasked to accept that there is a “risk of human-induced climate change” which requires “options for adaptation and mitigation” that can be selected as political polices and the IPCC is tasked to provide those “options”.
This is clearly stated in the “Principles” which govern the work of the IPCC. These are stated at
(wwwDOT)ipcc.ch/pdf/ipcc-principles/ipcc-principles.pdf
******************************************************
HIDDEN AWAY, SO NO ONE SEES, THEY TELL THE TRUTH. They have no friggin idea of what the climate is going to do.
****************************************************
The IPCC admits the models aren’t worth spit.
The IPCC itself tells us why the models will never be predictive beyond a very short time span.
The IPCC said in the Science Report in TAR:
Note the word PROJECTION. The IPCC switch from ‘prediction’ to ‘projection’ because they KNEW they can not predict climate. Therefore ‘95% certain’ especially in light of the failure of the model ensemble is a real laugh.
………………
The IPCC itself, has seen the light ,thrown up its hands, and given up on calculating a meaningful climate sensitivity to CO2 – the AR5 SPM says ( hidden away in a footnote)
Lying dumb asses like you make it possible.
Fat al gore started filling NOAA with kooks after Clinton was elected. What amazes me is that anybody could believe this crap.after all NOAA can only predict the weather a few data in advance. Besides I live in Denver and the weather is never consistent yr to yr. l’ve scene snow on Sept 9 to warmth until on Nov 8 2014 that day it was 70 degrees at ~ 10:00 am and 0 degrees at midnight on the same day. I am a Gardner.
Here’s how:
https://judithcurry.com/2017/02/04/climate-scientists-versus-climate-data/
There is no fraud and conspiracy in — or even reasonable objections — to AGW. Where the objections emerge is in CAGW. Even in CAGW, I hesitate to use fraud and conspiracy. Yes, there has been conspiracy to prevent publication of skeptical papers, and, yes, much of the deception in the National Climate Assessment borders on fraud. However, probably even more in play are other phenomena such as confirmation bias, group think, tribalism, guilt, and political activism. Many scientific organization have not put their Global Warming position to vote, and they certainly have not allowed participation of skeptics in the discussion on the wording. While I do believe that the vote on almost all scientific organizations would be YES for AGW, I do not know what it would be if the choice was between AGW and CAGW. Certainly, skeptics have not been allowed to participate in the wording of the policy statements.
This discussion could — and probably should — go on far longer than feasible in one post. I will try to come back to see if you wish to continue the discussion.
How is it possible that millions of Americans think it’s ok to steal from one person and give to another? How is it possible that millions of Americans think Trump said “all mexicans are rapists”? A lying media, catering to those with a leftist(emotional) view of the world, and a monetary incentive to push this false narrative, allowing “scientists”, deep in debt from their student loans, to have a purpose for being. That’s how.
Orogeny asks: “How would it be possible to get scientists all over the world…totally disconnected from each other, working in widely separated laboratories, in very different disciplines…all on one page with the “falsified” data?”
Answer: $$$$$$
Try dangling about 20 BILLION dollars, per year, in front of “climate scientists” unable to get a real job.
Don’t forget the internet. It’s not like they have to communicate with carrier pigeons. It’s also no surprise that most are political leftists with many practicing noble science. They use the excuse it’s for our own good for them to propagandize a natural warming or cooling trend.
With respect to your post, “How could this possibly be a conspiracy?”:
Your definition of Conspiracy is way too narrow. See my above post on the legal definition/requirements for “Conspiracy”.
You don’t need to show a giant, central hub sending out orders. All you need is an agreement to commit an unlawful act, and evidence that initial steps were made. You don’t even need fruition of the crime itself. It’s called an “inchoate” crime.
Concerning evidence: JUST READ WHAT THE PERPETRATORS THEMSELVES WRITE to one another. Just read their communication. They’re busted. The curtain has been pulled back. This website specializes in showing examples of it.
Seriously, how did it take so long for Milliken’s Oil Drop error to be recognized?
When you admit why, you’ll have your answer–for those not actively engaged in deliberate fraud.
Bingo! This perfectly explains one of the major factors in the problem!
If science funded by oil companies is corrupt because they stand to make money by debunking climate change then science funded by environmental groupsis corrupt because they make money by scaring people about climate change.
“How could such a conspiracy be set up?”
The same way it is in chemistry, physics, materials science, medicine. A few senior scientists are influential peer reviewers for grants and publications. You say what they want to hear, you get good reviews, you get tenure, keep your job, etc. You say things they don’t want to hear you don’t get to publish it, don’t get grants, don’t keep your job.
It’s no different than any star chamber proceeding throughout history. It’s not only possible but going on in most areas of government funded science today.
How?
Its really quite simple,
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
That is all.
Orogeny, it is a conspiracy of indolence by many who wish to simply put food on the table. Have you ever worked for the federal government? The overwhelming majority of employees including scientists are quite happy to go along to get along. There is a culture of mediocrity you will not find in the private sector. This culture is also susceptible to the rise of intellectual bullies as leaders. The joke we used to have was our leaders were never in doubt, seldom correct.
Imagine yourself a bright, shiny young atmospheric physicist working for NOAA and you ask Phil Jones for his archived raw data so you can reproduce his results, try a new and improved in-filling algorithm and actually calculate real principle components, only to find he will not provide said data because he’s afraid you will “find problems with it”. You have become persona non grata. There is your conspiracy.
The politicization of science and scientific bodies is something Eisenhower warned us of in his farewell speech to the nation in 1961, the same speech where he warned us of the growing “military industrial complex “. He was correct on both counts.
You cut-and-paste lying bs as well as anybody. Virtually all these a priori assertions are either outright lies or gross distortions. If this is representative of the “logic” the AGW disciples regard as convincing, is it any wonder that the public has largely discarded this latest round of pseudo-scientific alarmism?
I’ve got your conspiracy right here…

The endangerment finding is robust only in the narrow legal sense that the CAA mandated process was followed. It is not robust in a factual sense in several ways, reliance on NOAA being only one. Reliance on several provably biased or just ‘wrong’ IPCC AR4 inputs is another. So revision is one attack route, butbitnwould then be subject to litigation.
Mass. v. EPA can be overturned by revising the CAA definition of a pollutant. Perhaps after the 2018 election as many more Dem senators than republicans are up for reelection. It is possiblemto wait, as CPP is staid pending constitutionality review and it won’t pass muster.

Yep.
I can’t say what I want to about that guy. I’d get censored at the least. Investigated at the worst. I met him briefly at a party once years ago. He came across as charming; he was witty and engaging. I guess you have to be, in order to be the worlds biggest, most evil crook, AND get away with it.
They’d be fine with capitalism – as long as it is crony capitalism and they’re the cronies.
Is NOAA in the business of (a) truth or (b) being in business? Hmm. I’ll bet I can get a government grant to study this for about 20 years.
Meteorological “Science”?? — Bah Humbug
Two points:
1.) A corollary to “follow the money” applies here, One must only ask…who benefits from keeping the “global warming” threat real and alive? Answer: the academia who obtain grants to “study” the phenomenon and the governments, that gain power by controlling and regulating the energy and pollution industries.
2.) The falsification and manipulation of temperature data is well, well documented. The biggest tragedy to me is that it makes an honest, open, intelligent and fact-based discussion of this topic virtually impossible. There are several separate but equally important questions that should be addressed: 1) Is the earth experiencing temperature and weather variations that are outside of the normal variations it has experienced in the (distant) past? Global weather conditions have, and will continue to exhibit significant variation. 2.) If the answer to 1. is “yes”, are these variations due to man’s activities? 3.) If the answer to 2. is “yes”, can we control and reduce the activities and are the approaches being discussed the only and best ones? 4.) If there is a problem, and if reducing and cleaning up the use of fossil fuels is the best or only option…how on earth is it reasonable or possible to allow 3rd world countries to operate with little or no regulations while imposing costly regulations on developed countries WITHOUT putting the developed countries at a serious economic disadvantage?
Let’s not jump to conclusions it’s rather simple to explain actually.

(Good article!)
I know you want to be mad, but you have to work harder.
Like so look for the stations?
Because stations exist does not mean they are used. Often less then to percent of the stations are used.
Correction
Often less then 50 percent of the stations are used.
And you can cross-verify this thru an independent agency?
No?
Then you are a credulous buffoon.
Don’t believe everything you hear or read.
You likely still “believe” that you live on a massive spinning ball hurtling thru emptiness; if you believe that over your own eyes you have bigger issues than the weather.
Don’t do the bureaucrats’ work for free- at least get salaried for being a boob.
Look at the published land surface map, and compare with the combined land/sea. If there are no data for the land in an area for the period, how can there be ‘record’ temps in the land/sea? Its a logical disconnect.

https://data.giss.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/gistemp/show_station.cgi?id=156677750000&dt=1&ds=14
no warming
Now which of those stations do you claim were used to generate the NOAA Land and Ocean percentage temperature map Mass?
Mass, I am not sure what point you were making in your post, but perhaps the following would be helpful to you:
Sometimes what NOAA does is mysterious and sometimes skeptics need to back model in order to figure out what NOAA or GISS are doing. However, NOAA does provide us with quite a bit of information. NOAA does tell us what thermometers they use. Just because they do not use a thermometer does not mean that one does not exist. Skeptics often are able to go get the readings of missing thermometers. Furthermore, An increasing percentage of the time, NOAA does not actually get numbers from a thermometer, but rather they guesstimate what those thermometers might have said based on thermometers tens of kilometers — sometimes hundreds of kilometers, try 1600 km — away. We often find that thermometers not read are in rural areas and thermometers used to estimate their readings are in UHI-contaminated areas.
Okay, I see a map of Africa with 30-40 weather stations….
Why aren’t they being used? No one ever answers the question! Why aren’t they used?? It was pointed out on another post that 42 percent of global stations DO NOT IN FACT EXIST.
If this is the single-most important national security issue, why don’t we blanket the globe with these things, so we can put the issue to rest?
Why are there always gaping holes in the basic data-gathering apparatus? I’ve never heard an answer…and it doesn’t make sense!
They did, it is called a satellite. But the data from the satellite is hard to manipulate because they where launch in the 70s when scientist knew what they where doing.
I did find some data from Central Africa once,
Unfortunately it was late at night and I forgot to write down where exactly from.. all I have is a graph :-(
Maybe one day I’ll bother going searching again.
You can see why they would avoid this data.
Absolutely ZERO warming trend.
note , obviously some missing data around 1990
Not only that, but we have seen from the USA surface station, that they are in a deplorable state.
Even in the USA a large percentage where severely UHI affected.
One wonders what the ones they use from the rest of the world are like !!!
Some out of the way stations may possibly be reasonably good, but you can bet a lot are at expanding airports, in growing urban areas, and very often badly maintained.
It did put a challenge to any AGW fanatic. Show pictures of all the stations contributing to the temps in the yellow dots below.
Not even Mosh or Nick took up the challenge. ;-)
I did it and got a different answer. You forgot to click the air temperature box. Also, the noaa site inst very mobile friendly.
Always make sure you get RAW data..
…..none of the NOAA adjusted crap.
Cape Town unadjusted.
I don’t suppose you’ve ever considered looking at the satellite data have you Tony?
Too funny. Jimbo you really need to get a life!
Glad you liked it RAH.
Life? Don’t talk to me about life!
No , you deal only in the death of millions of less fortunate people in third world countries because of his religious support for the AGW agenda.
You don’t even care about energy poverty deaths in your own country.
That is truly SICK.
You mean this satellite data, hey Jimbo.
Good idea Jim. I added the satellite map in.
Heh.
Must say, I really don’t like the colours on that sat map.. so difficult to see .
Look at the difference over South America.
Below average on the satellite, above average on the NOAA farce.
Same with Algeria, Egypt, Canadian east coast, northern Australia, southern ocean.
No wonder GISS is wildly trending up compared to reality !!
Thanks for your kind words Tony.
I’m full of bright ideas!
No, you are full of yourself. !
The idea was meant to be a joke.. and it BACK-FIRED on you big time.
Not very bright, hey Jimbo.
Now take both feet out of your mouth, can’t be tasty where you live.. or maybe you like the flavour of sewer.

As the layperson of laypersons, I’ve often wondered about what I call the “fireplace brick effect” on warming.
See my explanation in:
“Does the ‘fireplace-brick effect’ contribute to global warming?” http://relevantmatters.wordpress.com/2009/04/18/does-the-fireplace-brick-effect-contribute-to-global-warming/
It is known and called Urban Heat Island Effect

I was just looking at our local climate records for St. Cloud, MN. The top ten most 90 degree days in one year. The record is 36 and it happened in 1936. Out of the top ten, only one occurred in the past 79 years!!!!! That was 1988. If that says anything, it would be that our climate has become less extreme.
I think that there is widespread recognition that record of upward temperature trends are driven by higher night-time temperatures and higher winter temperatures.
I must qualify my statement — “there is widespread recognition among objective, thinking analysts that . . . . ” There are politically driven folks — such as the authors of the NCA — who maintain that summer highs are increasing.
Aside from your statement is false, if it were true we should go light all the coal seams we can find on fire! That would be wonderfully good for civilization! Warmer winters, warmer nights, summer temperatures stay the same. What a nice place to live!
Climate criminals never want to talk about actual facts. E. g. the Roman Empire flourished when the word was almost a degree (F) warmer, and fell when it cooled. The Romans were fed by the breadbasket of Rome, the verdant wheat fields that grew where the Sahara desert is now.
Global warming would actually be good. No sane person can study history and not realize this.

Well said Robert.
Note how the World Bank is closely intertwined with CAGW.
1. Robert Watson was IPCC chair while employed by the World Bank.
2. The leaked ‘Danish Text’ left ‘the UN Copenhagen climate talks in disarray’ — “The draft hands effective control of climate change finance to the World Bank; would abandon the Kyoto protocol – the only legally binding treaty that the world has on emissions reductions; and would make any money to help poor countries adapt to climate change dependent on them taking a range of actions.” — UK Guardian
The World Bank is not held in very high regarded by those they ‘Helped’ in the past. They all know about the strings the World Bank attaches to any money they hand out. link
3. World Bank Carbon Finance Report for 2007
This is a fraud not an ‘industry.’ It produces nothing but poverty. It does not produce a single penny of wealth. Instead it acts as a short circuit across the advancement and wealth of an entire civilization by diverting time, money, resources and brain power in to useless activities.

How can I get more helpful information? I love sucking dick btw hmu
for my $$, climate science isn’t yet ready for prime time. too many people wanting a free ride on our dime. its common throughout the sciences. my 7 years at ksc & ccafs in the 90’s showed me the soft underbelly that the leeches have attached themselves to in our gov. (uncle sugar). the climate alarmists want our $$. imho, their main problem (science wise) is that there are just too many unknowns about our climate to be predicting the future. I found the following quote and cut/pasted it a while back, and it pretty much explains what all these bogus claims are about.
from IBD: “If they were honest, the climate alarmists would admit that they are not working feverishly to hold down global temperatures — they would acknowledge that they are instead consumed with the goal of holding down capitalism and establishing a global welfare state.
Have doubts? Then listen to the words of former United Nations climate official Ottmar Edenhofer:
“One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with the environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole,” said Edenhofer, who co-chaired the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change working group on Mitigation of Climate Change from 2008 to 2015.
So what is the goal of environmental policy?
“We redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy,” said Edenhofer.
For those who want to believe that maybe Edenhofer just misspoke and doesn’t really mean that, consider that a little more than five years ago he also said that “the next world climate summit in Cancun is actually an economy summit during which the distribution of the world’s resources will be negotiated.”
Mad as they are, Edenhofer’s comments are nevertheless consistent with other alarmists who have spilled the movement’s dirty secret. Last year, Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of U.N.’s Framework Convention on Climate Change, made a similar statement.
“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution,” she said in anticipation of last year’s Paris climate summit.
“This is probably the most difficult task we have ever given ourselves, which is to intentionally transform the economic development model for the first time in human history.”
The plan is to allow Third World countries to emit as much carbon dioxide as they wish — because, as Edenhofer said, “in order to get rich one has to burn coal, oil or gas” — while at the same time restricting emissions in advanced nations. This will, of course, choke economic growth in developed nations, but they deserve that fate as they “have basically expropriated the atmosphere of the world community,” he said. The fanaticism runs so deep that one professor has even suggested that we need to plunge ourselves into a depression to fight global warming.”
Thanks for all your efforts on this, Mr. Heller.
The comments here deserve a riot or two – blasphemy. Even the League of Women Voters has signed on and runs Global Climate Change workshops. Not only is the weather warmer – ice is melting and we are all going to drown from sea level rise. Damn – this is settled science and we all know it.
So we should all accept model temps instead of the real ones because the real ones are just anomalies to the model’s facts.
Government grants and extortion of industry is de rigeur in the “scientific” community. Such wonderful men and women of science. Pure, honest and devoted.
The Pure, honest and devoted scientists get fired A LOT!
Yes. Recall cases like Dr. Margot O’Toole. The only person in her research group to do the right thing. Consequence? Long term unemployment.
The guy who did the wrong thing? Consequence? Nobel prize, high academic position.
The actual criminal who did the dirty work? Only outed after 8 years because of intense pressure which caused an FBI investigation. Ordinarily she would have gotten away with it. Most of the time (based on personal knowledge) people in that sort of situation do get away with research fraud.
Perhaps it is just me, but it seems that science is in big trouble when a “scientist” says that data can withstand a LEGAL assault.
Very good point !! :-)

I live in California. The “experts” didn’t predict the torrential rains we’ve had this winter. Totally missed it. They can’t accurately predict whether next year will be wet or dry. Why do they think they know how much the temperature will increase, or the sea will rise 50 or 100 years from now?
The Obama administration recently fired a scientist in AGW research who published an heretical opinion. They probably didn’t write him a letter of recommendation, either. Throwing mutineers overboard motivates the remainder of the crew to fall in line. If government had a real interest in research, they wouldn’t be funding only one narrow approach. That represents a predetermined result seeking scientific confirmation – like the many mathematicians creating formulas for the movement of the planets that would accommodate a heliocentric universe.
It’s a lot easier to pretend when your BS isn’t mooted by mother nature until after you retire. Hence make all predictions for 5o years from now.
When the scam started in the late 80’s there were but a handful of ‘climate scientists’. Then the money started rolling in and the scam snowballed with it.
Everyone in upper and middle management from every gov agency needs fired and replaced. The left have been methodical in eradicating opposition and so the gov is awash with leftist willing to do anything to turn country communist.
How do you define SCIENCE … ????
SCIENCE should be our LEAST CONTROVERSIAL body of knowledge, because SCIENCE tests each Hypothesis against reality via the SCIENTIFIC METHOD (designed, repeatable experiments).
Here’s the CLASSICAL DEFINITION of SCIENCE:
SCIENCE is a body of knowledge that has been established by means of, and only by means of, the SCIENTIFIC METHOD (ie, designed, repeatable experiments).
Unfortunately, today we have many dishonest SCIENTISTS who are using a fraudulent definition of SCIENCE that replaces the Scientific Method with a CONSENSUS. Here’s their fraudulent definition of SCIENCE:
SCIENCE is a body of knowledge that has been established by means of a CONSENSUS (ie: politics, egotism, greed, etc).
For example, these dishonest Scientists tell us that (1) Man-Caused Global Warming and (2) the Normalcy of Homosexuality and (3) Darwinian Macro-Evolution, have been established as SCIENCE by means of a “CONSENSUS among experts.”
Problem is you can’t get grants to replicate experiments, so fraud is rampant. Nobody checks up on each other. Thus there is no more science in the USA since there is government money involved.
Science = reproducible observation. This does mean the experiments have to be repeated by others for it to be scientific.
Perhaps theymshould, and pay ambonus if the subsequent researchers can disprove the conclusions of a previous paper… cause it’s retraction.
The personal behavior of 1% of the U. S. population results in their CO2 footprint being 50 TIMES that of the average of the other 99%. This surprises no one. But what people don’t realize is this means this small group is responsible for more than 33% of ALL U. S. CO2 emissions and were this small group to only emit 25 TIMES the average of everyone else, OVERALL U. S. CO2 emissions would immediately (not over decades) decline 17%. Can ANY of you AGW folks please explain why all the plans being implemented and proposed will allow this small group to continue their behavior unabated while financially hammering the lower income and middle classes, just for being alive. PLEASE hurry for you believe this to be an emergency (because they same people have told you so) and YOU could change the trajectory of the discussion with this SIMPLE explanation. Should we all wait here?
This small group must be permitted to continue their behavior unabated because they are the ones supporting AGW, like Al Gore, who fly private jets to exotic locations for conferences on how to increase the cost of power, reduce its use and move taxpayer money to companies (in which they hold financial interest) that wouldn’t even rationally be suggested in a competitive world. Just an example of the hypocrisy: We still have, with proposals for its increase, RFS – ethanol additive – which contains an oxidizer that wreaks havoc on fuel systems, is less efficient, more polluting and less stable than gasoline.

As a novice to this discussion, I would like to know what is the earth’s normal or ideal temperature?
If earth temperatures are warming, are we moving toward the ideal or away from it?
Did the melting of the great ice sheets 50 or more millennia ago start because of the appearance of Cro Magnon? Which was the cause and which the effect?
Why did the Viking explorers name that ice covered island NorthEast of Canada Greenland?
Was the Little Ice Age real? Was it before the Industrial Revolution?
Would the world be better off or worse off if all the land in Canada and Siberia became agricultural land?
If population is the cause of global warming why do we not demand that China and India sterilize their women?
Just asking.
Here you go. Take your pick of “normal’ temperature for earth.
(This is why those with knowledge of geology don’t fall for the CAGW scam.)
For most of its history, the earth has been somewhat warmer than the present temperature and we do appear to be, on the grand scale, on the temperature upturn since the last major ice age. On that long scale, the descent into ice ages and the recovery is fairly steep and ice ages are relatively short compared to periods at a higher temperature. On these time scales, “normal” is a meaningless term and while “ideal” is very subjective, warmer seems to have favored life more than colder – which just might not be “our” life.
Even the last 10,00 years is probably something like this, especially in the northern hemisphere
As you can see, we are actually aa cooler party of this interglacial, below the Medieval Warm Period, and significantly below the Roman Warm period and the first 3/4 of the Holocene.
There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING unprecedented or untoward about the current climate.
ps.. The drop down from the Minoan period even has a geological name “NEOGLACIATION”. Look it up in google
That is the period when Antarctic and Arctic ice caps, glaciers, etc started to extend
There are many papers showing that summers in the Arctic were often SEA ICE FREE in the first 3/4 of the Holocene, so don’t listen to the Arctic sea ice con-men. They are DENYING climate history.
As a novice to this discussion, I would like to know what is the earth’s normal or ideal temperature?
There is no such thing as “normal” in climate or weather.
Sounds like both agencies deserve a cut in their budget!
I noticed that the two maps are for slightly different data sets. One is land only, the other is land and ocean temps. I also noted the differences in land temperatures between the two maps. This helps explain the discrepancy, from their FAQ (bottom link on the left hand menu, data and maps page):
“7. Why use temperature anomalies (departure from average) and not absolute temperature measurements? Absolute estimates of global average surface temperature are difficult to compile for several reasons. Some regions have few temperature measurement stations (e.g., the Sahara Desert) and interpolation must be made over large, data-sparse regions. In mountainous areas, most observations come from the inhabited valleys, so the effect of elevation on a region’s average temperature must be considered as well. For example, a summer month over an area may be cooler than average, both at a mountain top and in a nearby valley, but the absolute temperatures will be quite different at the two locations. The use of anomalies in this case will show that temperatures for both locations were below average. Using reference values computed on smaller [more local] scales over the same time period establishes a baseline from which anomalies are calculated. This effectively normalizes the data so they can be compared and combined to more accurately represent temperature patterns with respect to what is normal for different places within a region. For these reasons, large-area summaries incorporate anomalies, not the temperature itself. Anomalies more accurately describe climate variability over larger areas than absolute temperatures do, and they give a frame of reference that allows more meaningful comparisons between locations and more accurate calculations of temperature trends. ”
Not to put too fine a point on it, they are guessing, and then averaging out the guesses.
And of course their “guesses” are always in the “create warming trend” direction.

If it can’t be replicated or verified it isn’t science. I can just imagine CAGW believers saying
“Please please uncle Karl, tell me another story about the CAGW proof that got away!”
The whole concept measuring global temperature with mercury thermometers to fractions of a degree is ridiculous. They are covering less then 2% of the surface with their measurements. Watch a local news report sometime and notice how each county has several degree variance in temperature
I don’t even buy the satellite stuff, but it’s certainly better than this.
The only real measure of the trend in global temperature with any accuracy are the tidal gauges.
Accuracy of the tidal gauges also sucks due to land subsidence due to fill, draining of swamp… For example New Orleans is sinking because water logged soil has been drained.

For example unidirectional vertical movements, plate tectonics and also the rise and fall of the solid earth surface, especially in coastal areas.

So maybe 0.45mm/year. SCARY hey.
All I know is that the sea doesn’t seem to have risen at all in the 50 or so years I have lived on the NSW coast, although I doubt anyone would notice 32mm over 50 years when the tides move up and down by over 1.5m

So the color spectrum is now a tool for goober warming?
Total scam; recently the U.N. chief climate wizard admitted this is all about changing the world’s “economic model,” an admission that mirrors other admissions from other climate shamans about global wealth redistribution. That anyone, other than those who are paid climate worshipers, still believes this bollix is beyond belief.
I agree with you totally. I have had my head wrapped with duct tape for years to keep it from exploding over the lunacy.
So fucking what? If you’re a climate scientist, you know the strengths and weaknesses of each data set. From what I understand, this one uses statistical methods to fill in the gaps in data. Anyone using this data in their research would know that. It’s not a fucking conspiracy. Good job though on misleading your ignoramus audience.

I see your faith is strong but how will you weather the schism in the Church of Climate, Bill?
A wise man once said in a song, “If you believe in things you don’t understand, you suffer.” Your simple belief in “climate scientists”, whoever they may be, means nothing. Which data set and version do you have the most confidence in and why? Can you explain the smoothing algorithm NOAA uses and whether or not it is appropriate for the amount of in-filling required? What is your opinion on Michael Mann’s use of principle components? Do you find it odd that every revision to NOAA data sets cools the past and warms the present?
Since it’s obvious that you don’t know much about anything Bill I wonder how you can put so much faith into something you just don’t understand. Never had an ‘educated’ person lie to you? How would you know one way or other that he lied? Oh right, he has that piece of paper that says he knows what he’s talking about. Say, didn’t the scarecrow looking for a brain in the Wizard of Oz get his paper that told the world that he knew what he was talking about? When it comes to misleading an ignoramus audience this article certainly sucked you in now didn’t it. But so fucking what? Right? Lets not worry about the billions of humans on this planet that these lies negatively impact. It’s OK the liars get their money either way so fucking what?
In my 52 years of life I thought I had seen it all. Then Obama got elected. Jungles are Rainforests (George of the Rainforest, that really sucks), sex is gender which vexes me, global warming has given way to climate change, what happened to the ozone hole (not the one in Gore’s head), the GW alarmists all have private planes and big SUVs, and the best one, Al Gore’s net worth is 2000 was $700,000 and 2.9 million which includes his mansion. Al Gore is now worth $174 MILLION as of 2015. You are an idiot if you think global climate warming change is in the least bit happening. It is called the WEATHER. And the last I looked, the Sahara desert and Death Valley are still desert climates. Where’s the change?
‘global redistribution of wealth’
FROM the wage slaves TO the elite.
The IMF even admits it!
International Monetary Fund: Finance & Development, September 2012,
I can’t tell you much about the other things but I can tell you about the ozone hole. It’s still there doing what it has always done even since we stopped using CFCs. No change at all and still a slave to the Earth’s magnetism and Solar energy. But shush, they don’t want you to think of the global economy that suffered as a result of feeble attempts to close it. And rest assured, the Polar Bear population above the article circle is safe, as long as we can keep the game hunters and preservationists away from them. Polar Bears are endangered, or so they tell us. So lets go out and kill one to dissect him to see how they are all doing. As you can probably tell I have had my fill of junk science and those who practice it.
I for one am in favor of globaal warming. Can it, pack it up, and send it pronto to upstate New York!
I gave up and MOVED from upstate New York. First to the Boston area and then North Carolina. I LIKE not shoveling snow.
An excellent photo album used to exist online of NOAA-NASA thermometers that had been placed in “scientific” locations around the USA, to measure global warming. Hundreds of these photos showed thermometer units which had been mounted in heat-compromised locations… such as on concrete slabs in direct sunlight, or in office compounds only a few feet from electric generators or window air-conditioning units… which raised individual thermometer readings 5-10 degrees F. The overall effect was an increase in temperature, nationwide. The scam of falsifying global warming data was clearly evident. Time to bring such evidence back online, and shed light on the extent of the global warming lie, and its fabricators who have posed as scientists these many decades.
There is a set-up called USCRN operating since 2005.
It’s is state of the art, evenly space, unaffected by UHI etc etc
It shows basically ZERO warming apart from the 2010 El Nino transient and a broad based transient from the latest El Nino, which is tilting the linear trend up slightly (which is why you shouldn’t put linear trends across transients)
It matches the satellite data over the USA rather well, but is a bit more responsive to peaks and troughs in the temperature..
The photos were at
http://www.surfacestations.org/
Others at WUWT.
I think Anthony removed them because others like BEST were stealing his work. He now has a paper published and the photos maybe there.
They maybe here
http://www4.ncdc.noaa.gov/cgi-win/wwcgi.dll?wwdi~ASOSPhotos
When we went to the moon and I was given the task to analyze the photos I mentioned that I felt some of them were fake. The fiducial marks etched into the lens of the camera should appear on film as if they are on top of the photographed subject as they are between the subject and the film. But on many of the photos the fiducial marks appeared behind the subject. How can this be? So those photos were removed with the question’s about them unanswered.
Then there was the lighting on the surface of the moon. Little to know shadow would mean that the sun was overhead with the Earth not visible because you would be looking at the night side of the Earth. But there in the photographs were no shadows from the subject and the limb of the Earth was fully illuminated. Now how can that be? So those photos were sequestered away from public view. Then there were photos that showed shadows in different directions. Now can that be with the sun as the source of the light? So, those photos were removed from public view. I am also wondering that since high altitude commercial flight on an SST was subject to maximum exposure to radiation levels which meant that flight crews could only work a specific number of those flights before being permanently removed from those flights as the radiation exposure was considered to be cumulative. But our astronauts were exposed to such high levels of radiation for weeks, and in the case of the ISS, protected by no more of a shield that was the skin of the spacecraft thinner than a dime and made from aluminum. Someone is not exactly telling us the full story are they? Could it be because much of what they tell us is fabricated for the effect of garnering more money? Sorry but my highly technical mind has questions that no one seems to have valid answers for except to sequester the information away so that no one else can ask the questions. Sort of reminds me of the discovery of the Heidelberg man and the non-existent brontosaurus. It’s also akin to the claim by scientists where the science has been settled that it takes thousands of years for ole Terrible Hurburst to decay into crude oil yet two Washington State post graduates are making their fortunes by producing crude oil from algae in a couple of hours in their factory in Oregon. So, what’s up with that little inconvenient lie Al Gore?
NOAA is the source of the biggest data fraud since Milli Vanilli.
The FRAUD perpetrated under Obama alone is massive.
However this started 25 years ago.
NASA is a Complete Fraud !
The “space” program lied like a billion times. And there are no satellites. The Earth is “Flat” . Don’t believe ? Look up “Astrolabe” , and, attempt to explain why the star constilations have NEVER changed. Yet, they taught us all we are on a ball spinning three ways in “space”.

Just to make sure this noob understands…
In the world maps above, the map labeled “NOAA Thermometer Data” is what the measuring devices (thermometers) actually recorded, whereas the map labeled “NOAA Reported” is what NOAA broadcasts to the public?
Could we say that the former is what the actual data says, and the latter is what NOAA says the data says? Something else?
Thanks, I’m trying to hone my arguments.
@whoever wrote this article:
Your political agenda is obvious, and so is your lack of understanding of science.
Those temperature data are not measured, but they are also not made up. How whether works is very well known, and this knowledge has led to very accurate interpolation algorithms. Interpolation is the process of fillng in missing data, based on known data, and knowledge of how the system being measured works. How weather works is VERY well known. Furthermore, there are many places in world where temperature data is known. As a result, the missing temperature data can easily be calculated. It is NOT simply made up by a bunch of people sitting around and telling lies. These are the results of very complicated math formulas that are obviously well beyond your ability to understand.
This isn’t Al is it?
How weather works is VERY well known.
Yes, that is why all the alarmist models fail, and why we cannot get accurate weather forecasts more than 3 days out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8GwT7ZotCg
You just said they could be “easily calculated” then “very complicated math formulas” Furthermore, therefore, Science man speak with forked tongue
Morons are crawling out of the woodwork. Something must have flushed them out of the shadows.
It’s a slow news day.
Mister Anon
Please show us the long range forecasts that predicted the “permanent drought” ending heavy snows and rains that California had. You can’t because they didn’t! So what are you basing your claims that “how whether works is very well known”?
You really don’t have to show those forecasts because I have them for you from NOAA .
http://unofficialnetworks.com/2016/07/2017-winter-weather-forecast-long-range-prediction-from-noaa
As you can see NOAA didn’t even come close to predicting the extent or magnitude of the weather that has busted the California drought. Just as they didn’t come close to predicting the weather that busted the drought in Texas previously.
It seems to me that interpolation is only a valid method when the total parameters of the macro set are known and therefore, by inference, we can fill in the blanks in some situations.
For example, code breaking can work this way. Let’s say we know that the opposition has transmitted a list of three generals who might be chosen to lead the next battle. If we know all 50 enemy generals and we decode a few letters, then by pattern matching and inference, we can construct viable guesses with such precision that the name “G_n_ral Fr_d Jon_s” becomes obvious. In fact, ordinary people do this same task on Wheel of Fortune all day long.
However, if we do not have any temperature measuring stations in a given location, then that is akin to trying solve for “General Fred Jones” using an alphabet with no letter “e” in it.
In other words, you can’t rationally interpolate into a new set from an old set which completely lacks all aspects of the elements your new set needs to be valid.
Only after you actually have a significant number of accurate temperature readings from all grid-wide locations over a long period of time, can you then *occasionally* paint a picture without reading the local number in all the locations.
Systems inevitably diverge sand weather is a highly variable, shifting global system. Thus, the system of measurement you use must closely match what is actually happening locally, not what you speculative impute into your guess as to what might or should be happening.
In other words, weather (and temperature) is measured with statistics and forecasted with probability. You however, seem to be advocated that we build our forecasting models on pseudo-statistics which were generated with probability models.
And frankly, if you can see the flaw in your reasoning, then you should be a public pension actuary for the state of Illinois. Because they, like you, don’t seem to know how to handle the most basic math principle of all: GIGO.

Tony is WHAT you can not hope to be. A true scientist and environmentalist.
Go crawl back under your bridge.
For certain you don’t understand them.
So lets dissect your BS here.
While our weather, not whether, is something we can see we still don’t know all that much about it. If we did we’d be able to predict weather more than two to three days out, which they still can’t do.
If you don’t measure the temperature how do you know what the temperature is? Still trying to get my mind around that one. So let’s talk about your “very accurate interpolation algorithms.” Accurate? Well as far as how their program, your algorithm, performs, it’s accurate in that if you use the same data over and over again you will get the same results. But that is not the accuracy we are talking about here, we are talking about the accuracy of what they are telling us will happen to the future and offering a reason why they think it will happen. In the technical world, it’s called dry labbing your data. You call it interpolation, which is actually a way of manufacturing date but does not tell you that data is correct or not. It all depends on who wrote the program and the number of data points entered into it to give the results. And when you know how to manufacture those numbers you can easily have your program, your algorithm, give you the results that you desire. You say the missing temperature data can be easily be calculated but is the results of very complicated math formulas that are beyond the understanding of others. Easy but impossible to understand. Do you see the oxymoron in your statement? And you expect people to look at your comment with any amount of credibility? No sir, it’s your personal agenda an politics that’s showing here. What you, NOAA and NASA have forgotten is how to employ the scientific principal necessary to generate facts and not suppositions.
Who cares if it is record hot? The real question is do we contribute to the weather? Not at all. If we had only one job as humanity with all our efforts we could not change the temperature. Since 1850 mankind has put 100 billion tons of carbon into the atmosphere. Nature puts in 200 billion tons every year. One third of one percent.
I’m suspicious of any “scientific” claims about climate prediction and about anticipated outcomes. How does one model a chaotic gyre — like that of our atmosphere?? Simply making a conflated analogy between a certain parameter, say CO2, and the global temperature absent other considerations is faulty at best…and disingenuous at worst.
The climate “scientists” are pure and simple trying to predict the future. These erstwhile Nostradamuses would better spend their time cogitating lottery winning schemes or breaking the houses in Vegas as they would “modeling” our atmosphere. I honestly see this in the same league as a Ponzi scheme or some other scheme to defraud suckers. Because absent real time mitigating circumstances (changes in solar output, major volcanic eruptions, etc.) the climate “predictions” are about as accurate as those from a phone-in psychic.
When you add to all this the gross manipulation of current and historic temperature (as shown in this article) for whatever purpose, any claims of accuracy or predictions of trends become suspicious, fraudulent and nefarious in nature.
NASA has been lying and faking things for 50 years including the Apollo moon landings, Mars Rover, Space Station, Satellites and space travel. It’s not much of a stretch to believe they also fake climate data.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8GwT7ZotCg
NASA lies about everything.
Not everything. Some of the stuff they have done is right on target. But you are right, they do lie and tell some pretty good whoppers. Now NOAA? I can’t remember reading anything where they have not lied. I know several of their employees and they avoid me because I always ask the difficult question to expose their lies. Saw one on the grocery store the other day. When he saw me he turned and booked for the door. All I could do was laugh.
there’s so much more red than blue, are you sure it’s not the map of who voted for trump?
Always keep your bowler on in times of stress; watch out for diabolical climate data!
Global Warming is Globalism not science.
Fake science…
The Democrats killed science and reason.
Always remember, theories are not facts and facts based on theories presented as fact are not facts either. They are still theories. Which explains why no one can predict weather much more than a couple of days out. But these bozos will tell you what it’s going to be like 5, 10, 100 years in the future if we don’t do what they tell us to do. Right, and I am supposed to believe them?
Climate change is real. Global warming is a ‘subset’. See NOASA’s phony, discredited reports.
I’m a reader of science and believe in the sun, volcanoes (tectonic plates, etc. ), surface & undersea.
you do understand that noaa weather satellites can read surface temps from space. they dont need a local thermometer.
What utter nonsense.
really John.. you have shown that you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
NOAA doesn’t use the satellites for the surface data, the use surface station which in reality cover a small fraction of the surface , even though they pretend a single thermometer can cover some 25o km² or whatever.
They then smear that surface data everywhere with a red pen, fabricating and adjusting large amounts of the data in a pretence to get a surface temperature that trend upwards.
The satellite are used by RSS and UAH.. so lets compare shall we…
Here are trends this century for GISS (fabricated from sparse surface data see the map, grey means NO DATA) and RSS and UAH the two satellite data sets.
Good response but way to technical for most people. Having worked on satellites and ground equipment for decades I totally agree with you. For one, satellite sensors still today do not have the repeatability nor the precision for them to make the statements they issue to the public. For that matter neither do the earth bound measurement stations that do not get the maintenance they need and have other local climate factors that make their readings inaccurate and unusable. The station in Redding CA is an excellent one. When it was installed in the middle 50’s it was literally out in the middle of no where. Today, and it has not moved, it sits behind the tarmac where the jet aircraft warm up their engines before take off and is subject directly to the jet exhaust. But they still use it to predict weather. There are many others that have this problem but few people ever question it. Incidentally, it’s not fun to work on that station when you are in the way of a jet’s exhaust. Noisy and hot. Then there is the faulty wind data collected but they factor that out too.
Do you understand how incorrect your statement is? FYI, I worked on and calibrated those satellite sensors and they are incapable of doing the things that NOAA has claimed they can do. So, where is your technical background that enables you to make your comment? Oh, right, you read it all in some paper didn’t you? Try actually working with the hardware instead of looking at their manufactured data.
GOOD! I hope you have contacted Kent Clizbe with you information.

(NOAA scientists wouldn’t now the definition of Accuracy and Precision if it bit them on the rump!)
Mauna Loa is the largerst active volcano on earth, and they constanly quote high co2 readings from the climate station there. Volcanoes are huge sources of co2. Probably the worst place to take readings and they know it.
Care is taken in the siting and procedures to account for background.
https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/ccgg/about/co2_measurements.html
Which gives them plenty of excuses to toss data that does not fit their preconceived notions.
From my own experience in that time frame I can tell you the “new” infra-red (IR) absorbing instrumental method SUCKED ROCKS big time. We gave up on it because we could not get it to reproduce results.
But that’s OK the ClimAstrologists had a solution. They draw the curve first and toss the results that do not fit.
It’s “unambiguous”. I was right! – From that noaa site- “However, that air is sometimes contaminated by CO2 emmisions from the crater of Mauna Loa.” And the climate hypers scream we need to be alarmed by the Mauna Loa readings- http://www.worldviewofglobalwarming.org/pages/maunaloa.php
And so the stonewall begins to crack. But to cause it to crumble people must be prosecuted and go to jail. Then, and only then, will the rats really start talking to try and save their own skins. And if that happens we all know that the trail will lead right up the food chain to the oval office.
Appreciate the useful information I love sucking dick btw hmu
The earth is a grain of sand hurtling through the fabric of space. There is no normal climate on earth. Its always changing due to the sun, volcanoes, gravity of the poles changing, forest fires, rising methane from the oceans and space activity just to name a few. This is all a hoax to get money to keep these programs going.
Gail Combs has provided some excellent information on this thread.
Hoax is the wrong word.
Ok, how about manufacture lie with the intent on making a lot of money?
Here is a true story about the people NOAA hires. I worked with a PhD from MIT that NOAA hired. In our carpool one Monday he announced how he saved big money at the local hardware store buying gallon cans of paint to paint his house. One of the other carpoolers was at that same hardware store on the same weekend buying paint to paint his house. He ask the PhD to check his savings, because the paint in the 5 gallon buckets was 30% less. On Tuesday the PhD reported that he screwed up big time. This was not the only time we all had a good laugh on the PhD. I have many more of these stories where his great mind never got used.
As a retired engineer in the high tech fields of space technologies coupled with weather related technologies I had my fill of the PhDs that though they were God’s gift to humanity. You would think that one they went past their Bachelor’s degree they would be pretty smart people. But with their education came a gross loss of common sense. As a result many of these people couldn’t pour urine out of a boot without help.
I like to work on cars. One day the PhD I was unfortunate to be assigned to came into my office and asked me to look at his new pickup. He couldn’t get it started. So, wanting to help I went out to the truck, hopped behind the wheel and started it right up on the first attempt.
He was flabbergasted so after I got out of the truck, he got in and couldn’t start it. He was furious. Asked me what I did to get the truck started. I calmly replied, “I pushed in the clutch idiot.” By that time about 20 people had shown up to watch the fun and all of them started in with fits of laughter. For a couple of weeks I pestered him with “How’s your truck running today.” He then went to my boss and asked for another engineer to work with which I was more than happy to leave. That engineer lasted for two days and said, “I can’t work with that smug idiot any longer. Move me somewhere else or fire me but I am not going to work with him any longer. After a couple of other engineers had the same problem they finally got rid of the PhD and that made everyone happy.
Brother, does that sound familiar.
I worked in a contract lab filled with PhDs. It was in the Boston MA area which made it even worse. I didn’t last a year before I went back to working as a lab manager in a factory. I rather deal with union stewards than a PhD any day of the week!
What causes Global Warming/Climate Change/Name De Jour/ ……. although I admit I am no scientist, I am quite sure I know what causes the above…… Hot Air.
So then, here’s what NOAA did to create a forged starting point:
1. They presumed that the world is rising in temperature.
2. They gathered temperature statistics from a limited number of locations.
3. They backfilled the holes in their data set with **BOGUS** numbers along a scale which preserves the presumption of #1.
Sounds like super good science: Let’s extrapolate a smoothed presumption across highly variable grid of potential input points. And while we are at it, we’ll ignore the very real fact that weather patterns are significantly irregular – and that those patterns massively affect local temperatures.
In other words, even though it’s a fundamental fact of the earth that there are regular and frequent massive changes in local patterns of weather and temperature; we are going to ignore that basic fact and instead, simply invent numbers to fill in the holes of our collection grid – regardless of what actually is true on the ground in those locations.
This seems basic to me. They are infilling areas of no data based on data from surrounding areas massaged with an adjustment that the area is warmer or colder based on historical records or geographical consideration (change in elevation, flora, bodies of water, etc.).
They just need to tell us why/how these areas were adjusted. Just don’t hold your breath for an answer.
This is why science is not performed in secrecy.
Oh there is real science performed in secrecy but it is usually performance based and associated with engineering of a high degree. Examples would be the many advanced aircraft and missile designs that have been developed in secret programs.
That being said there is no viable reason that virtually everything having to so with climate and weather produced by NOAA, NWS, AND publically funded projects at universities should not be available for review by any tax payer. We paid for it, it’s ours, not theirs.
Reasons why Global Warming is Hogwash
1. CO2 is heavier than the main components of air. Look at the Elemental chart. The lightest is hydrogen, then helium etc. Carbon dioxide is a compound and has much more weight. It therefore sinks in the atmosphere and does not float up to the stratosphere.
2. But we hear the term about “Green House Gases”. Yes it is true, CO2 is used as a Green House Gas atmosphere enhancement. Plants must have CO2 to survive. Long ago and to this day CO2 is pumped into green houses to help plants grow larger and faster for our consumption of their byproduct, fruits and vegetables. Look it up on the internet.
3. Because of that fact, you do not find trees growing at high altitudes. Trees need CO2 to survive. Known as the Tree-line, it is the same all over the world 8000 feet or so. It is not because of the cold weather at those levels because up in the artic you still have tundra grass and fungus that grow under the snow fields.
4. The atmosphere is made up of 78% Nitrogen, 19.1% Oxygen and .9% Argon. The remaining percentage is made of Water Vapor, CO2, CO, Methane, and other hydrocarbons. CO2 represents .06% of the atmosphere, roughly 6 parts per million. Take 1 million marbles, paint 6 of them red for CO2 and lay them out. It would be hard to even find the 6 CO2 marbles. There is not enough to make a difference. And plants are taking all they can get because they have to have CO2 to survive and convert it back to oxygen for us to survive.
5. If you heat up that block of Atmosphere of 1 million marbles, the nitrogen oxygen and argon molecules will absorb more heat than the CO2 marbles. Nitrogen is used as an atmosphere in metallurgical heat treat furnaces in industries all over the world to keep out any damaging oxygen molecules.
6. So what if you take CO2 molecules and only have them in a 1’x1’x’1’ cube, what would the temperature be? The higher concentration would actually decrease in temperature until you have 100% in the cube. The temperature would be -109F. We call it Dry Ice and it is used to freeze foods.
7. Why are they pushing to tax CO2 emissions? It is a global method to raise taxes for other ruling parties to use funds and control people and business. CO2 is a byproduct of all engines. That goes for ships, trains, cars, power plants, you name it. Control what can be allowed and what tax must be paid and you can control people and industries. Al Gore developed tax credits yet he doesn’t cut back his CO2 footprint one bit and he doesn’t pay his tax credits to himself. But he wants you too.
8. CO2 is so heavy that it sinks to the earth and is absorbed in our ground. CO2 is actually found deep in the earth and is pumped up and piped to other oil wells to add pressure to get the Natural gas to the surface.
9. Some international companies actually are getting paid to capture and sequester the CO2 emissions from plants and other sources. They pump CO2 into salt domes and old natural gas wells all across America.
10. CO2 comes from the earth and the central core. Under the earth’s mantle lies molten lava constantly spinning keeping the earth in rotation. Occasionally, Volcanoes go over a hot spot or a thin spot in the mantle and we get a volcano. It spews ash and CO2 into the atmosphere. Both come back down to earth through rain, hail and just their plain weight. The CO2 is an off-gas emission of the earth’s internal combustion.
11. There are caves in Mexico that have giant crystals growing inside. CO2 is a major component for that to happen. Men cannot go down there without having oxygen respirators to breathe.
12. Scientists at the universities will claim to believe in the Global Warming so that they get grants to study side bar issues with the environment. Plan a trip to Antarctica to see the penguins and how they are coping.
13. Some old official sites of temperature readings were in fact out at Airports where there is masses of concrete, which does reflect and retain heat. Temperatures have been falling and rising with and without man’s industrialization. It ties closely in with the Sun’s storm pattern which we are still determining.
So now you know. Accept the fact that the masses can be fooled if they don’t do their own homework.
Pee is heavier than water too.

Here is an interesting article about a respected scientist in the climate field and what she had to do to escape the government/education climate coalition.
http://reason.com/blog/2017/01/04/georgia-tech-climatologist-judith-curry
Main-stream media and our socialist bureaucracy are now awarded the grand fake news prize. The national inquirer is now more trusted than any other news source.
Vile, disgusting, repulsive liberal fascists! Freaks! Traitors to truth, traitors to journalism, traitors to ALL americans.
Great to see so many of us realize that climate change as defined by those pushing it is corrupt. It’ more a mixture of a Fascist State Religion and organized crime. A product of globalist thought funded by willing governments and supported by a fraudulent “science” establishment. Nations of free, prosperous people are an impediment to globalists because they are not easily controlled. So, thru taxation and regulation to fight “climate change” individuals and corporations are punished economically.
AGW and CAGW are invented problems to justify more regulations and economic measures– read taxes. Huge sums of money pour into “climate science” where little or no scientific methods are ever employed. Politicians begin to support the issue; the “save the earth” syndrome kicks in.
Scientific arguments opposing the climate change religion aren’t effective because science has been largely corrupted. The funding must be cut off immediately, regulations and laws must be rolled back—stop feeding the monster!! That’s a start.
One of the posts critical of climate science asked for “one paper” demonstrating CO2 warming in a convective atmosphere.
Convection is pretty nearly irrelevant.
The plain fact is that the earth is considerably warmer than the moon. This, though the moon is far less reflective than the earth. How can this be? Both receive the same sunlight! Oh, you say, it’s the atmosphere. But why does the atmosphere make a difference? It is not as if heat is carried away to space by convection or conduction. The earth itself, atmosphere included, is perfectly insulated against heat loss due to either of those.
Aha! Radiative cooling is how the earth, and the moon, return to space the energy got from sunlight. And so what? Because if the atmosphere were transparent in the IR, the temperature at the surface would govern the radiative energy loss and the moon and the earth would have the same average temperature.
So now it’s a question of physics. What is it, in the atmosphere, that tends to interfere with transmission of IR energy from the ground to space? And the answer is twofold: water vapor, and CO2. And when we run the numbers, we find that water vapor is something like 3/4 of the cause, and CO2, the other 1/4. Now if you increase CO2 by 40%, on the face of things you’d expect an increased overall effect. Again, the numbers have been run. The executive summary is that extra CO2 figures to make things warmer.
And now let’s go to the earth and look. Glaciers are generally in retreat. Arctic sea ice is hitting new record lows at a regular clip. The previously fabulous Northwest Passage is now open for navigation from time to time. All over the world, where temperature records are kept, new record highs are being logged more often than new record lows.
All this is something new. 80 years ago, new record highs and new record lows were about equally common. Some glaciers were advancing, some retreating; no particular pattern evident there. No Northwest Passage, and people were able to hike by sled to the North Pole, no boats needed dry shoes all the way. Nowadays, that would be an impossible stunt. So kvetching about conkvetchion is beside the point.
None of it is new! All of it has happened before due to natural variation.
If he can’t baffle you with the BS he will baffle you with HIS brilliance. This is the standard tact of the Intellectually, progressive, enlightened and superior liberal mind. At least that’s how they think of themselves in relation to the rest of humanity..
But what’s wrong with a warmer Earth ? The biggest problem is plant life has a deficit of CO2.
Oh no! Not only do observation and data not support the underlying global warming hypothesis the models are built on, now Anon Y. Mitty destroyed the entire theoretical foundation in a single post! When is the pounding going to stop? The climate experts have kids in expensive schools, mortgages to pay and exotic places to visit. They need the government money. Have mercy, people!

Anon has a point!
The underlying global warming hypothesis the models support has always been based on the mistaken Idea that IR-EMR exit flux originates at Earth’s surface. The S-B equation now can be used to show that the minimum radiometric temperature of whatever is ‘radiating’ must be at least 255 K, but the surface has a higher thermometric temperature. The atmosphere is measured to have temperatures bracketing that minimum, thus demonstrating that exit flux originates somewhere in the atmosphere. Never from the surface. Can we all go back to sleep and put this scam behind us?
“Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.”
—Anon Y. Mitty
It is the on and on kvetching about atmospheric CO2 levels that encourages the inherent human trait of scamming others for fame or profit! There is absolutely no ‘science’ whatsoever in any of the CAGW SCAM!
—Anon Y. Mitty :-)
Tell us oh wise one, what exactly is the right amount of Co2 since you characterize what we have now as “extra”.
“…what exactly is the right amount of CO2?…”
1500 PPM…..
anonymitty you really need to study history just a little better, in 1903 the famous arctic explorer Roland Amundsen made 3 crossing in the northwest passage in a wooden hulled ship. About the only way to go thru the passage now is if ships are accompanied by ice breakers.
80 years ago it was the 1930’s also known as the “Dirty Thirties” which lead to the Dust Bowl, during that time most of the high temperature records were set and most of those have NEVER been broken since.
as far as glaciers retreating

It IS convection STUPID!
Paraphrasing Dr. Brown, physist @ Duke University:
“When CO2 near the earth’s surface absorbs back radiation, the lifetime of the excited state caused by the absorption of the photon is much longer than the mean free time between molecular collisions between the CO_2 molecule and other molecules in the surrounding gas. That means that the radiative energy absorbed by the molecule is almost never resonantly re-emitted, it is transferred to the surrounding gas, warming not just the CO_2 but the oxygen, nitrogen, water vapor, argon as well as the other CO_2 molecules around.”
In other words near the surface back radiation, aka a ‘resonantly re-emitted’ photon is a RARE EVENT.
Dr Happer in his lecture for physics grad students at NCU agreed and further stated that the time to radiate is about ten times slower than the time to the next collision in the troposphere.
That means the IR energy from the earth is absorbed by CO2 and PASSED to other molecules via collision. Then VIA CONVECTION (hot air rises) the energy is transported up.
Dr Happer in his lecture also answered my question about where CO2 energy is radiated instead of being passed to other molecules via collision.
Experimental data shows barely any radiation at 11 KM and that radiating is in the stratosphere ~ 47 KM above the surface.
The take away from his UNC lecture (9/2014) was the CO2 ‘modeling’ is a mish-mash of theoretical equations and experimentally derived data. Where the Climate alarmists missed the boat is in using equations for ‘line broadening’ aka the ‘wings’ where the additional CO2 absorption ( at 400 ppm) is supposedly taking place. These equations produce results that do not match up to the experimental data. The lines are not as broad as theory would have it. This means you take the exponential curve Tony showed at his old website CO2 Greenhouse Effect Is Very Small and squash it even flatter at 400 ppm and above. This means the CO2 sensitivity is much smaller than calculated by the IPCC.
Dr Happer’s information is illustrated by the image below the Warmists use to say ozone is a greenhouse gas. The Figure is from Uherek, 2006. They even say it “show how carbon dioxide is cooling the stratosphere.” The black dotted line is the tropopause and you can see water is dumping energy just under the tropopause (the pink splotches surrounded by dark blue) while CO2 is dumping energy from just above the tropopause and up (the big yellow streak on the left) just as Dr. Happer and Dr Brown stated. Ozone is the smaller yellow streak on the right.
The legend with the illustration:
What is NOT mentions is that is where CO2 is active and NOT in the troposphere at least not below 11 KM where it barely starts radiating.

Mainly CONVECTIVE COOLING in the lower atmosphere,
Radiative from the upper atmosphere
There is NO DOUBT AT ALL that convection and conduction CONTROL the lower atmosphere by the atmospheric pressure/density gradient.
“One of the posts critical of climate science asked for “one paper” demonstrating CO2 warming in a convective atmosphere. ‘
Well.. where is it ?????
Or are you going to run and hide, and evade as well.
“Convection is pretty nearly irrelevant. ”
As soon as I saw that, I KNEW that the rest of your post would be meaningless, low-end, scientifically illiterate, propaganda BS !!
anonymitty wrote, “Convection is pretty nearly irrelevant.”
Please ask a meteorologist about that. (But not while he’s sipping a beverage, that would be unkind.)
AndyG55 replied, “Mainly CONVECTIVE COOLING in the lower atmosphere”
Gail Combs replied, “It IS convection STUPID!”
Yes. Convection, and the water cycle (evaporative cooling), are the two most important ways in which heat is removed from the surface of the Earth.
The water cycle is a classic phase-change refrigeration cycle, like the Freon refrigeration cycle in your refrigerator: Water evaporates at the surface, absorbing “Heat Of Evaporation” (evaporative heat loss). Because the molecular weight of water vapor molecules is just 18 (compared to 28 for N2), moist air is lighter than dry air (contrary to intuition). So the moist air rises to mid-troposphere, where the water condenses into clouds, releasing the heat it had absorbed at the surface.
(Note: Evaporative cooling is expected to increase with higher temperature, because warmer water evaporates faster, accelerating water cycle cooling: a negative/stabilizing feedback.)
Gail continued, “Paraphrasing Dr. Brown, physist @ Duke University: ‘…’ In other words near the surface back radiation, aka a ‘resonantly re-emitted’ photon is a RARE EVENT.”
It is true that when CO2 molecules absorb IR photons, they almost always give up the energy to other air molecules by collisional transfer. But fact that photon re-emissions are rare does not mean that photon emissions and back-radiation are rare.
Although CO2 molecules are constantly giving up energy by collision with other air molecules, they are also constantly absorbing energy from other air molecules. That continual process of collisional energy transfer between air molecules keeps the constituent gases in the atmosphere in thermal equilibrium. So the amount of IR emitted by CO2 in the air is determined by just two factors: 1. the temperature of the air, and 2. the partial pressure of the CO2.
Gail continued, “Dr Happer in his lecture for physics grad students at NCU agreed and further stated that the time to radiate is about ten times slower than the time to the next collision in the troposphere.”
Not just ten times slower, but more than 100 million times slower!
The mean time for a CO2 molecule with its bending mode excited is about one second. Compare that to (at 1 atm pressure and comfortable temperature) the mean time to a collisional transfer of only a few nanoseconds.
Here’s Prof. Happer’s lecture:

When putting people or hardware into Space, NASA relies heavily on modeling data for designs. Models often fill in gaps between verified test data, but NASA insists that contracted companies validate the extrapolated data through proven correlations. If related data sets are known to exist NASA requires comparison and rationalization. They don’t accept contradictions from test data sets when life or capital is at stake. If we are to believe global warming is as dire as they claim, why don’t they vet their data to their own standards? Maybe their model has some validity, but it really puts a kink in their plan to rush to judgement if they are held to real scientific standards.
They know darn well they can not model a chaotic system more than a few days out. They even admit it.
The IPCC itself, has seen the light ,thrown up its hands, and given up on calculating a meaningful climate sensitivity to CO2 – the AR5 SPM says ( hidden away in a footnote)
We should pass a tax on those who believe in global warming. You would be surprised how fast global warming goes away.
You are fighting an attempt to tax you more to correct something that could not be corrected if it were real.

If Trump is serious about ending the hysterical farce of “anthropogenic” global warming, then he will cut all funding to NASA and the U.N., and bureaucratically prevent all grant funding for research on the subject. Game, set, match.
UN yes, NASA no. But he does need to clean the trash out of NASA’s house.
Global cooling, then global warming, then Climate chance, then Gore’s 35 lies that went worldwide in schools as if it were true, then back to global warming it is all lies to fund pseudo scientists and Democratic politicians worldwide. it is a plague on the world this was the original Fake news and many didn’t realize it. Ignorant fools trying to help God in His world as Democrats deny God and are godless infidels only seeking power over everyone beginning in education. It is sad so many have been led astray.

Most of these folks cannot imagine a job in the private sector. In fact, I work with these people and they would never admit it but while they act superior to the average person they suffer from severe insecurity from living lives that do nothing to benefit society.
Seems you know them as well as I do. You are correct, they will never admit that they have made an error and yes, they do act superior to everyone else they encounter. I worked on their equipment for decades and know precisely how they massage the data to get the results they desire. These are the government workers Trump can get rid of. They are parasites on the butt of humanity. I hold all of them accountable. The bad one’s because the did it and the good ones who keep their mouths shut so they will continue to have jobs. Either way, they area all bad people and we can do well without them. Let them get real jobs or starve, just like the rest of us who are not sucking on the government teat.
Climate chance is a variation of the Aztec “sun won’t rise ” scam used by the ruling /religious class of the Aztecs to enrich themselves. First they got everyone to accept the fact that the sun would not rise unless it received human sacrifices. Since the Aztec citizens didn ‘t want to die themselves or have their valuable slaves die, they were told by the ruling class to attack the closest native settlements and to bring back captives for the sacrifice, and to, by the way, bring back the captured gold, silver, other valuables to be given to the ruling class. So the ruling class, enabled by the priest, foisted this scam on the citizens to enrich themselves.
Now we are told that unless we pay $$ in the way of increased taxes, increased energy cost, and a lower standard of living, the climate will destroy us.
Does this not sound familiar. Who gets the $$ –the ruling class.

how many examples of fraud do we have to report that global warming, (or whatever it is called today) is a lie being foisted on the world? maybe it’s time to arrest al gore.
Are they still repeating the “97% of scientists” myth and threatening to arrest “climate deniers”?
I live in Nicaragua. We have not had record high temperatures in December. We have had cloudy skies and record rain for December.
By definition, a record can only be a record if it is a recorded measurement. A record is the extreme member of a set of recorded data. Temperature anomolies are not recorded data, but recorded interpretations. They do not even qualify as metadata because they are not deterministically reproducible from the raw data, but are dependent upon imaginary “data” that has been corrected, extrapolated, interpolated, infilled, or is otherwise removed from actual measurement of actual phenomena.
Climate “scientists” have strayed long and far from the very critical distinction between data (raw measurements of actual phenomena) and human interpretation, (corrections, interpolations, extrapolations, analysis, theories, models, etc.). An Olympic sprinter cannot set a record in the 200m based upon an extrapolation of his/her 100m time. A 4 x 100m relay cannot be run by 1 real person who hands off the baton to 3 imaginary teammates. Olympic timekeepers do not adjust elapsed times to compensate for altitude or winds or temperature. Records may have an asterisk if there is something extraordinary about the circumstances of measurement, but the measurement itself stands.
When we look at U.S. surface temperature anomalies as currently presented by federal agencies and authorities we find that the the raw data has been adjusted with a systematic bias to cool the past and warm the present by a magnitude greater than the resulting warming trend — i.e., the corrections reverse the trend of the raw data. If the raw data is of such poor quality that such large corrections are justified, then the error bars on all the graph points would form a noise band large enough to completely swallow the warming trend line. All of science and reason screams out against the validity of a conclusion which requires such violence to the raw data, and even so cannot then produce a signal greater than the error tolerance. It remains only for the sane and honest among us to wonder if this miscarriage of science has been perpetrated through gross malfeasance or deliberate fraud. Something is rotten in NOAA and NASA and the whole climate modeling and alarmism cohort. Self-interested criminal conspiracy constitutes racketeering. When agents of the government racketeer against the citizens, it is the gravest form of betrayal and treachery.
Nicely put.
How can you get reports to the hundredth of a degree from a UNIQUE datum with the majority of surface stations (over 70% in the USA) are Class 4 (CRN4) with an error >= 2C or Class 5 (CRN5) with an error >= 5C.
You can not use the statistics of large numbers to increase your precision especially with the measurements of temperature are BAD estimates of the property heat content.
The simple fact is that the average of two temperatures is completely void of meaning. ClimAstrology is dedicated to the notion that you can average just one, intensive, variable, that being temperature, and do thermodynamics WITHOUT paying any attention to the other properties in a thermodynamic system like, water content, specific heat, mass, mass flow…
Oh wow. Something as an engineer who has worked on their equipment and has seen them adjusting/correcting their data and has been saying they are not being honest for decades. If they don’t have the data they make it up. If the data doesn’t fit their model, they ‘correct’ it. It’s one of the biggest scams/lies that have been perpetrated on the world population. Much bigger than “If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor.” Oh how I wish that Trump would contact me and let me inform him how they do it. I spent a lifetime working on the technology necessary to monitor our earth’s atmosphere and climate and it pains me to see how they have misused it to spread a lie for power and money. I can show him exactly how it was done and is still being done. How? Because I have seen it being done. But no one wants to believe it. Just label me a denier. I am also a deplorable so a deplorable denier seems to fit.
NOAA may be getting their data from their esteemed colleagues, the demoRAT-Communist party operative and colossal fraud algore or comrade grand mufti hussein obama. These two circus clowns seem to “know” much about the subject.
.
No offense to circus clowns.
Since it’s inception using Nazi scientists in the 50’s NASA has yet to produce anything real IE: not a CGI composite or complete fake.
After telling so many lies about so many subjects, the authorities, including the professional scientists, no longer have credibility with the public. This is as it should be, because the public should never have trusted those authorities in the first place. Establishmentarian authorities, governments, corporations, and institutions should always be suspected of fraud.
“… the public should never have trusted those authorities in the first place…”
some of my friends believe in this ‘glow ball warming’ horse shit, but maybe once they shovel a few tons of fucking snow this year, they’ll get a goddamned clue.
I know that freezing one’s ass off in the snow is good for those ‘glow ball warmists’ ;)
Especially when the 2001 IPCC report said:
“Milder winter temperatures will decrease heavy snowstorms but could cause an increase in freezing rain if average daily temperatures fluctuate about the freezing point. It is difficult to predict where ice storms will occur and identify vulnerable populations. ”

“When CO2 near the earth’s surface absorbs back radiation, the lifetime of the excited state caused by the absorption of the photon is much longer than the mean free time between molecular collisions between the CO_2 molecule and other molecules in the surrounding gas. That means that the radiative energy absorbed by the molecule is almost never resonantly re-emitted, it is transferred to the surrounding gas, warming not just the CO_2 but the oxygen, nitrogen, water vapor, argon as well as the other CO_2 molecules around.” ”
What total nonsense from some arrogant academic that has not ever read Maxwell’s 22 equations!!
Why is this showing temperature brightness? That’s not representative of actual temperatures… It’s how much microwave radiation something gives off. Sure, this data can be used in part to calculate sea surface temperatures, but that doesn’t relate to your point. The area you’re looking at is land. Besides, the map isn’t even displaying SST, it’s just showing brightness – used for detecting water vapour and clouds, not actual temperatures.
This is incredibly convincing, but wrong as hell.
NO temperature data for central or east Africa? NOT true. Did you even try a simple search for GHCN weather reporting stations? You mean, maybe THESE?!?!?!
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/datatools/findstation
You are peddling lies.
Only a complete moron would conflate the existence of a station with the station actually reporting data.
Yep, didn’t even look to see what stations were actually used to come up with their data.
I presume that this map that you posted here:
https://realclimatescience.com/2017/03/nasanoaa-have-little-or-no-long-term-temperature-data-for-the-uk/
shows the reporting stations used by GISS to come up with their global temperatures.
roflmao
Grey means NO DATA.
ie whatever they are using is FABRICATED !!!!
I did actually find some data from Central Africa once..
Can’t remember where,
But it looked like this..
No Wonder NOAA/GISS don’t want to use it. ;-)
All I have is a station number, 646500
You would only know how to collect Data if you were the Creator of this Earth and I am sure that Creator would not call it Data….We humans did not create this Earth so have no idea how the Earth is made up and what it is made up of, so if there is no Creator we are all Doomed for Man will destroy us all. This is common sense and Logical yet I find it hard to find such Values these days….Maths/Science is Man made and so is everything else please think on this….
I just basically skimmed the info but noticed that you seemed concentrated on pointing out the “lack of data for Africa”. I’m not too sure about that because we have plenty of technology to do such measurements, so why leave Africa out? Well that’s beside the point. You totally ignore that our earth is more than 2/3 water, so take another look at the pictures. They show that water temperatures are higher than normal, so that is going to be HIGHLY significant on climate change, don’t you think?
Have you even been to the NASA website? They have real-time satellite pictures, charts, graphs, etc. There is no “report”, published by someone who opponents take pride in tearing apart. There is no reason, and it’s highly improbable that NASA could even change all the data they have accumulated throughout the years.
I don’t see many credible sources or data to back up your statement. In fact, I don’t even know what YOUR credentials are. That leaves you open to the same type of attack that you bestow on those you disagree with.
Take a deep breath and enjoy your seafood. Remember Fukishima and The Deepwater Horizon? Those are only 2 examples out of thousands.
Please spare me the BS
I don’t eat seafood anymore.
Good! leaves more for the rest of us. Wish you would so the same with oil and all its distillates. Then you wouldn’t have a computer to broadcast your vapid posts.
D. Justice,
This is worrisome. Correlation is not causation but could poor nutrition be the underlying cause of your symptoms?
yes, the data has been altered. oooh. aahhh. We have not data from certain regions of the world. Oh, no. you found the root of all conspiracy. OOOORRR ….. it’s a phenomenon called INTERPOLATION which has been done on every single graph you have ever looked at. Yes, every single one. What is your scientific background? In fact, by your logic the entire US is made up of missing data points. I can’t believe I have to explain this to you, but it’s as if you have a thermometer at the back of your yard and on your deck. The deck reads 79 and the back of the yard reads 82. You’re in the lawn chair in between, how hot it is? it’s a conspiracy. It’s a cover up. You’re predicting somewhere you don’t have a measurement. According to your logic, the only way you could have any temperature data from the US would be to evacuate all the people and cover the US with thermomenters. Even then you could claim that there were errors in between each thermometer!
Where do these morons come from?
What John, meant to say is that he has no counterpoint to make, just make an ass of himself in public instead.
Well John, that was a load of incoherent nonsense.
Try again when you sober up and can put some rational thoughts together.
roflmao.. what a baseless load of anti-science and ignorance .
Tell us Johnny-child, …
…how did you manage to pack that all into one meaningless, incoherent rant ?
… it’s a phenomenon called INTERPOLATION…
Yes, John, it only feels like intercourse. Don’t bother looking behind you.
You are a great writer thank you. I love sucking dick btw hmu
“The deck reads 79 and the back of the yard reads 82. You’re in the lawn chair in between, how hot it is?”
I know my back porch is well sheltered from the sun, and there is a nice shade tree down the back.
The middle is bare concrete.. so .. what temperature is it?
Come on, interpolate your tiny little mind out , bozo. !!
I always have to laugh a people so naïve and trusting that they refuse to believe the government would lie to them. Here is paste a recollection I posted at another blog this morning:
I know for a fact that the US military has in the past willfully distorted important information when ordered by the NCA (National Command Authority) to do so for political reasons.
Back during the Clinton era during the fighting in the Balkans they did it. The CIA using satellite and USAF aerial recon was issuing BDA (Bomb Damage Assessment) reports. Though not still in SF I knew and was still in contact with a number of guys on teams on the ground doing recon at the time. Their missions were BDA. What the CIA was claiming in their BDAs were so wildly optimistic that they had no basis in realty based on the on ground recon BDAs conducted by the special operators. Bill Cohen was Clintons Sec. Def at the time. He ordered the on ground BDA be ignored and the highly inaccurate CIA BDA be reported and used for the AARs (After Action Reports) so as to put the best political face on the USAF bombing operations.
And people wonder why I laugh at fools that think that government climate data must be honest and factual representations of reality. If politicians have no qualms about publishing, presenting, and hyping inaccurate or false information that could lead to future military failures and increased casualties for political reasons, they why would anyone expect them to be honest about a political issue such as “climate change”?
You guys really need meds and find a girl for sex. Climate change is real you crazy heads.
Where do these flaming morons come from?
Only a complete idiot would think that anyone would ever deny climate change. But then complete idiots have no idea what climate change really is, how often it happens, and certainly nothing about the actual science. So it’s not really their fault, it’s just genetics.
Dick…… head, is that your name ?.
Looks like yet another low-IQ 15 year old, just left a low end junior school.
Majored in needle sticking and dong smoking.
So easy to spot these brainless trolls.
That’s a fantastic pickup line, Dick! A girl for sex, yeah!
Would you please check out the hundred of chart and videos on this site, based on actual irrefutable US Government produced temperature data, before you pop off again? You might actually learn something.
Sigh. https://www.popsci.com/regardless-house-science-committee-claims-noaa-scientists-probably-didnt-manipulate-climate-records
There is no question NOAA manipulates climate records.
I believe in climate change, it has always changed and will always change.
However, global warming doing business as climate change is false.
Some of the same science was predicting that we were entering an Ice Age 30 or so years ago.
The whole global warming agenda is built upon a computer program that makes progections that so far have not come to fruition.
I may be ignorant but I do question things when so many people accept some theory as fact across such a large segment of the population. Mob rule is never based on truth or fact.
