Real Climate Science

“Data storage availability in the 1980s meant that we were not able to keep the multiple sources for some sites, only the station series after adjustment for homogeneity issues. We, therefore, do not hold the original raw data but only the value-added (i.e. quality controlled and homogenized) data.”

CRU Data Availability

I’ve been programming for 50 years.  Prior to the availability of cheap disk storage people used tape drives. My first personal computer from the 1980s had no permanent storage other than through an attached cassette drive.

The real hockey stick is the fraud which went into creating it.

The United Nations says earth is boiling, and Toto’s climate team continues to document this world ending tragedy.

Via adjustments, NOAA turns a long-term cooling trend at Altus, Oklahoma into a warming trend – including the last eleven years which the station has been shut down.

In 2012 the New York Times said recent droughts were worse than the Dust Bowl, worst in 800 years and the new normal.

The US has cooled considerably since the 1930s. This doesn’t suit the political agenda, so NOAA and NASA tamper with the data to turn cooling into warming.

Two fundamental points are emphasized [about breaking weather records]. The first is that records will always be broken. The second is that the occurrence of a record breaker is not of itself an indication of any change in causative mechanisms. In other words, unprecedented events do not presage extraordinary explanations— an admonition that could usefully be pasted above the desk of every headline writer.

Nebraska has recorded 302 days since 1890 with the statewide average maximum temperature above 100F. Eighty percent of those days occurred before 1960, with the hottest being July 25, 1936 when the state averaged 111F.

“Perhaps the hottest night ever recorded in the U.S. outside of the desert Southwest, occurred on the evening of July 25, 1936, at the unlikely location of Lincoln, Nebraska, when the minimum temperature fell to only 91°”

“There shouldn’t be any more coal-fired power plants permitted anywhere in the world,” Kerry began before launching into an anti-coal diatribe.

“I find myself getting more and more militant because I do not understand how adults who are in a position of responsibility can be avoiding responsibility for taking away those things that are killing people on a daily basis…”

China has 655 new coal fired power plants planned.  Without electricity generated from coal, there would be mass misery and death around the world.
