Real Climate Science

The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness. As one participant put it, “poor methods get results”. The Academy of Medical Sciences, Medical Research Council, and Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council have now put their reputational weight behind an investigation into these questionable research practices. The apparent endemicity of bad research behaviour is alarming.

Half of the peer-reviewed science is fraudulent, and 97% of the remaining science is probably just complete crap.

Brian Cox smugly pointed to a NASA graph, and said that it must be accurate because it was made by the people who put men on the moon. He said that anyone who disagreed with him probably didn’t believe we ever put men on the moon.

In other words, Brian didn’t do any research and made a childish appeal to an authority he knows nothing about. The people at NASA who actually put men on the moon aren’t very happy with the small handful of NASA climate fraudsters whom Cox has embraced.  Had he done any research, Cox would have known that the only scientist to have walked on the moon – Harrison Schmitt – is a Harvard PhD, geologist, Former US Senator, and is also a prominent climate skeptic.

This letter was sent to NASA by the people who actually put the men on the moon. They aren’t at all happy with NASA’s junk climate science or their worthless temperature graphs like the one being pointed to by Brian Cox.

Brian Cox took a drawing which he knows nothing about, and attributed it to people who disagree with his conclusions about the graph. Then he ridiculed anyone who disagreed with his unsupportable, unresearched and childish conclusions. This is exactly how real science is not done. Brian should probably leave science to adults, who aren’t as lazy as himself, and are willing to actually do some research before opening their mouths.

In 1974, the National Center For Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado showed no net warming from 1870 to 1970, and a 0.5C cooling from 1940 to 1970.

Climatologists blamed every imaginable form of bad weather on the global cooling that was occurring.

In 1975, the National Academy of Sciences reported the same thing, and said global cooling is inevitable.

In 1989 Tom Karl, the Director of NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center, said Earth had cooled from 1921 to 1979.

In 1981, NASA reported about 0.2C warming from 1921 to 1979. This was at odds with NOAA, who said that same period was cooling.

Challenge_chapter2.pdf

But by 1999, NASA had changed the 1921 to 1979 cooling which Tom Karl reported into almost 0.3C warming, and had erased most of the 1940 to 1970 cooling.

1999_Hansen_ha03200f.pdf

By 2001, NASA had increased the fake 1921 to 1979 warming to more than 0.3C, had further erased the 1940 to 1970 cooling, and showed about 0.5C warming from 1880 to 1999.

Fig.A.ps

NASA now shows 0.5C warming from 1921 to 1979, have completely erased the 1940 to 1970 cooling, and show 1.1C warming from 1880 to 1999. They more than doubled 1880 to 1999 warming since their 2001 graph.

The next image overlays the 2016 NASA graph on top of  Hansen’s 1981 NASA graph, at the same scale on both axes. It shows how NASA has cooled the past far outside their own blue error bars. This indicates that they do not understand their own data and are not doing science.

Summarizing : NASA has completely erased the post-1940 cooling. They turned Tom Karl’s 1921-1979 cooling into 0.5C warming, and have more than doubled 1880 to 1999 warming since their own 2001 temperature graph. Malfeasance like this in most professions would have serious consequences for the perpetrators.

The NASA temperature record is wildly unsupportable garbage. Unfortunate that clueless people like Steven Mosher and Brian Cox believe it is gospel truth.

Scientists are terrified about Antarctic ice again:

Scientists fear for deepening crack on Antarctic ice shelf the size of Scotland – 9news.com.au

With Antarctic sea ice exactly normal, they have very good reason for their terror.

The Guardian actually had a sensible headline yesterday. First time I have ever seen that.

Here are the stats for Obama’s home town.

2016 Stats | Chicago Murder, Crime & Mayhem | HeyJackass!

1910 was one of the coldest years on record according to NASA, and glaciers were rapidly retreating all  over the world. The Jakobshavn Glacier in Greenland was retreating more than one foot per day, and the Arapahoe Glacier in Colorado was doomed.

13 Oct 1910, Page 7 – Aberdeen Herald

We are now in the hottest year on record, and the Jakobshavn Glacier is not shrinking..

This is what the Arapahoe Glacier looked like this morning, after 106 years of unprecedented warming and melting.

The chart below explains the fundamental thinking behind government climate science.

In 2006, Obama said raising the debt limit is a failure of leadership, and puts the debt on the backs of our children.

Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that “the buck stops here.” Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.

• Barack Obama 2006

In 2008, Obama said that nine trillion in debt is irresponsible and unpatriotic.

During the budget fight in 2013, Obama said not raising the debt limit is irresponsible and unpatriotic, and now has borrowed more money than all other presidents combined.

But thank goodness we have the GOP to stand up and fight for us.

“We’re not going to raise the debt ceiling without real cuts in spending. It’s as simple as that”

• John Boehner 2013

Bill Nye has taken stupid to an entirely new level, and CNN is pulling up the rear on his stupid train.

The entire Gulf Coast was built from sediments deposited by floods on the Mississippi River and other rivers. Louisiana wouldn’t exist without regular flooding.  That is why they call it a flood plain.

The only reason a moron like this can be on television, is because everyone else at CNN is just a stupid as he is.

Every year the morons at the Guardian predict that the Arctic will be ice free, and they are back at it again for next year.

‘Next year or the year after, the Arctic will be free of ice’ | Environment | The Guardian

Never mind that the same “scientist” made the identical forecast for this year.

Arctic could become ice-free for first time in more than 100,000 years, claims leading scientist

Never mind the global warming expedition currently struggling to avoid getting stuck the ice, or the five to fifteen foot thick ice covering the Arctic.

DMI Modelled ice thickness

Never mind that temperatures near the pole have been almost continuously below normal for the entire summer, or that Greenland had its coldest July day on record this year.

Ocean and Ice Services | Danmarks Meteorologiske Institut

There is no indication that the ice is disappearing, with ice extent close to where it always is this time of year.

The Guardian has a big lie they need promote, and reality will not be allowed to interfere.

On this date in 1898, 90 degree weather covered the US from coast to coast, including many stations over 100 degrees and 110 degrees in Nebraska. Last year was the hottest year ever, and only 17% of US stations were over 90 degrees on August 22.
