Real Climate Science

Heartland posted a billboard a couple of years ago pointing out that some of the worst mass murderers in US history were climate activists. The left was outraged and said Heartland was smearing a broad range of people over the actions of a few.

Yesterday, some psychos went on a murder-suicide rampage in Las Vegas, so Eric Holder immediately responded by promising to investigate conservative groups. And every murder is the fault of the NRA. And every storm is the fault of the closest skeptical politician. And Obama says that everything bad in the world is due to George W Bush.

After the Challenger disaster, Congress assembled a team of people from a wide range of disciplines to figure out what went wrong. They understood that NASA would never tell them the truth, and as a result of bringing in outsiders they were able to quickly determine what went wrong.

NASA still won’t tell the truth, but Democrats will only listen to them about climate. Democrats refuse to listen to anyone who isn’t an insider profiting off the climate scam, and thus they keep the climate scam alive.

Republicans in the House need to assemble a team of experts from outside the climate community, and quit listening exclusively to the criminals who are pushing this scam.

Ten climate forecasts which demonstrate that the world’s leading government climate experts have absolutely no clue what they are talking about.

NASA’s top experts said that burning fossil fuels would trigger an ice age.

In 1971, the world’s top climate scientists Schneider, Hansen and Rasool predicted that burning fossil fuels would trigger an ice age. They also determined that CO2 was nothing to worry about.

A few years later they realized that there was much more research money available for global warming, so they changed their scientific judgment to say the exact opposite of what they said in 1971.

Alarmists have been telling us for years that Glacier National Park is imminently doomed due to global warming. Now it turns out they stopped retreating four years ago.

GREAT FALLS, Mont. (AP) — Healthy snowpack and cooler summers over the past four years have slowed melting of remaining glaciers in Glacier National Park in Montana, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

“So the glaciers have paused in active retreat,” said Dan Fagre, a research ecologist with the USGS’ Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center in Bozeman who is stationed at Glacier.

In 2008, Obama said gay marriage was against his beliefs and against God’s beliefs.

“I believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. Now, for me as a Christian — for me — for me as a Christian, it is also a sacred union. God’s in the mix.”

In April, 2014, the Mozilla CEO was run out of his job when it was discovered that he gave $1,000 to a campaign which backed Obama’s stated belief about the nature of marriage.

You might have expected the President of the US to defend free speech and the First Amendment, which he took a vow (twice) to uphold. But instead Obama said nothing.

You might also be led to believe that the President is dishonest about his intentions, and not upholding his oath of office.

Anthony Watts has shown that NOAA temperature anomalies are off by an order of magnitude from legitimate data, largely due to UHI.

Last night I was riding my bike over to the gym about 10 PM, and noticed what I always do. Temperatures in open space are much cooler than temperatures near asphalt. As soon as I leave open space and enter a neighborhood, or particularly a parking lot – the temperature goes up 5-10 degrees Fahrenheit. Most UHI effects are due to proximity to asphalt and brick. Even a small town can suffer significant UHI effects.

Boulder and Fort Collins, Colorado are very similar cities. They are college towns close to each other, at the same elevation, about the same size, and both situated up against the foothills of the Front Range.

But there are a couple of big differences. Fort Collins is growing rapidly, and its temperature station is poorly sited in a parking lot in the center of the city. As a result, Fort Collins has a serious UHI problem, and Boulder doesn’t.

Fort Collins has warmed four degrees since 1950, while Boulder has cooled. None of the standard techniques for UHI estimation would have detected this huge discrepancy, and if data from one station was filled in to replace missing data from the other one, the result would be grossly incorrect.
