Republicans To Investigate NASA Over Climate Data Tampering
With record heat (and drought) in the west and record cold (wet and snow) in the east, the global warming game-playing continues every day but the climate-gate rhetoric has increased vociferously since we first noted three weeks ago, the data that has been so relied upon to 'prove' global warming's trend was in fact manipulated. What The Telegraph called "the most extraordinary scandal of our times" - that of the "seasonally-adjusted" seasonal raw global temperature data - is about to be investigated by Congress. As Daily Caller reports, California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrbacher exclaimed "expect there to be congressional hearings into NASA altering weather station data to falsely indicate warming & sea rise."
This began, as The Telegraph previously noted, with claims that the underlying data used to justify practically every study p[roving global warming has, in fact, been manipulated...
Although it has been emerging for seven years or more, one of the most extraordinary scandals of our time has never hit the headlines. Yet another little example of it lately caught my eye when, in the wake of those excited claims that 2014 was “the hottest year on record”, I saw the headline on a climate blog: “Massive tampering with temperatures in South America”. The evidence on Notalotofpeopleknowthat, uncovered by Paul Homewood, was indeed striking.
Puzzled by those “2014 hottest ever” claims, which were led by the most quoted of all the five official global temperature records – Nasa’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (Giss) – Homewood examined a place in the world where Giss was showing temperatures to have risen faster than almost anywhere else: a large chunk of South America stretching from Brazil to Paraguay.
Noting that weather stations there were thin on the ground, he decided to focus on three rural stations covering a huge area of Paraguay. Giss showed it as having recorded, between 1950 and 2014, a particularly steep temperature rise of more than 1.5C: twice the accepted global increase for the whole of the 20th century.
But when Homewood was then able to check Giss’s figures against the original data from which they were derived, he found that they had been altered. Far from the new graph showing any rise, it showed temperatures in fact having declined over those 65 years by a full degree. When he did the same for the other two stations, he found the same. In each case, the original data showed not a rise but a decline.
Homewood had in fact uncovered yet another example of the thousands of pieces of evidence coming to light in recent years that show that something very odd has been going on with the temperature data relied on by the world's scientists. And in particular by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which has driven the greatest and most costly scare in history: the belief that the world is in the grip of an unprecedented warming.
How have we come to be told that global temperatures have suddenly taken a great leap upwards to their highest level in 1,000 years? In fact, it has been no greater than their upward leaps between 1860 and 1880, and 1910 and 1940, as part of that gradual natural warming since the world emerged from its centuries-long “Little Ice Age” around 200 years ago.
This belief has rested entirely on five official data records. Three of these are based on measurements taken on the Earth’s surface, versions of which are then compiled by Giss, by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and by the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit working with the Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction, part of the UK Met Office. The other two records are derived from measurements made by satellites, and then compiled by Remote Sensing Systems (RSS) in California and the University of Alabama, Huntsville (UAH).
To fill in the huge gaps, those compiling the records have resorted to computerised “infilling” or “homogenising”, whereby the higher temperatures recorded by the remaining stations are projected out to vast surrounding areas (Giss allows single stations to give a reading covering 1.6 million square miles). This alone contributed to the sharp temperature rise shown in the years after 1990.
But still more worrying has been the evidence that even this data has then been subjected to continual “adjustments”, invariably in only one direction. Earlier temperatures are adjusted downwards, more recent temperatures upwards, thus giving the impression that they have risen much more sharply than was shown by the original data.
In reality, the implications of such distortions of the data go much further than just representing one of the most bizarre aberrations in the history of science. The fact that our politicians have fallen for all this scary chicanery has given Britain the most suicidally crazy energy policy (useless windmills and all) of any country in the world.
Science blogger Steven Goddard (a pseudonym) has been a major critic of NASA’s and NOAA’s temperature measurements...
Goddard points out that NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center makes the present look warmer by artificially cooling past temperatures to show a warming trend.
“NCDC pulls every trick in the book to turn the US cooling trend into warming. The raw data shows cooling since the 1920s,” Goddard told The Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview last month.
“NCDC does a hockey stick of adjustments to reverse the trend,” Goddard said. “This includes cooling the past for ‘time of observation bias’ infilling missing rural data with urban temperatures, and doing almost nothing to compensate for urban heat island effects.”
And it appears it was just too much for some politicians... As The Daily Caller's Michael Bastach explains...
Are government climate agencies tampering with climate data to show warming? Some Republicans think so. California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher says to expect congressional hearings on climate data tampering.
@caerbannog666 expect there to be congressional hearings into NASA altering weather station data to falsely indicate warming? & sea rise
— Dana Rohrabacher (@DanaRohrabacher) February 20, 2015
Rohrabacher serves as the vice chairman of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, which has jurisdiction over NASA and other agencies that monitor the Earth’s climate.
Rohrabacher has long been critical of the theory of man-made global warming. Lately, the California Republican has criticizing NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for allegedly tampering with temperature data to create an artificial warming trend. Such data is then used to justify regulations aimed at curbing fossil fuel use and other industrial activities.
@grngamine journalist investigation shows records of various weather stations altered by AGW advocates to make it appear to be warming.
— Dana Rohrabacher (@DanaRohrabacher) February 19, 2015
@caerbannog666 U seem unaware of latest revelation of data manipulation. NASA reported higher temp than what was record at weather stations
— Dana Rohrabacher (@DanaRohrabacher) February 19, 2015
Rohrabacher isn’t the only one to call for hearings on the science behind global warming. Oklahoma Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe has also promised to hold hearings on global warming data.
“We’re going to have a committee hearing on the science,” said Inhofe, who chairs the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. “People are going to hear the other side of the story.”
As The Telegraph's Christopher Booker concludes,
“This really does begin to look like one of the greatest scientific scandals of all time.”

Con men investigating con men.
LOL
The banksters need to repay us.
Translation: Some in CONgress want to send some of the climate-scam lucre to their buddies and spouses.
Paging Flakmeister, paging Flakmeister; your trough has been impuned in aisle 4...
It's always been about instituting a global carbon tax and carbon trading (ie a tax on breathing). Imagine the power and wealth a global government would gain by a tax on just about every human activity. That's why this lie is being pushed so vigorously.
It is literally a breath tax...
The Beatles were right...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Maz9ddxEQnM
It was Climategate, the AGW scam that finally took the scale off my eyes and made me realize that our governments lie incessantly. After AGW, I believe nothing they tell me unless I can independently verify it.
good....investigate the mother fuckers. All the evidence about the climate fraud already came out a few years ago w/ the East Anglia University data dump and that fuck head from Penn State, Michael Mann who fucking LIES about every bit of data he has published.
But, of course, these shitbag universities are complicite to all of this because they're being paid by our criminal, mafia gov-tards hundreds of millions in bribes/grant money to lie about the data so that they can tax the fuck out of the rest of us.
Penn State "investigated" this themselves and found no wrong doing, so of course THAT'S credible, right?
http://dailycaller.com/2011/03/08/penn-state-whitewashed-climategate/
But of course, the media along w/ these scumbag, mafia, sociopath government shitheads all ignored that and plowed forward calling the rest of us "climate deniars" (hahaha), and threatening to throw people in jail for "denying" climate change. What total fucking scumbags.
Lord Monckton busted all those fake bitchez a few years ago too: http://www.desmogblog.com/christopher-monckton
Let's just start with throwing Al Gore's fat ass in jail for his fraud and keep working our way down the shit pile from there.
Then throw all these lying scumbag fraud "scientists" in jail too. Make serious criminal examples out of these mother fuckers and strip their universities of all government funding. Hell, end all government funding of universities all together!!!
Wipe that shit out and you wipe out the fraud.
Policians supporting climate taxes and other fraud should be impeached for their crimes or for being too fucking stupid to hold office if they're so fucking ignorant to fall for all this bullshit.
THEY HAVE COST THE WORLD HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS and they aim to suck Trillions out of anything that's left over. They've cost the world millions of jobs. And it all goes in their pockets.
END THE FUCKING UNITED NATION SCUMBAGS AND KICK THEM OUT OF AMERICA. They're pushing this climate bullshit too and Agenda 21 to take over America and all other countries.
DESTROY AND END THE FUCKING E.P.A. as well. The entire program is run by tyrannical, Marxist traitors who should also be thrown in prison.
Total criminal fraud as bad as all the bankster fraud.
The Ice Age cometh.
yeah exactly. I'm down with that serious prospect. Look at the weather cycles getting colder and look at the sun cycles becoming less active. I'm seriously wondering of most of Canada will even be inhabitable over the next 10 to 50 or more years. It might be so frozen solid that most of them will need to leave.
Anyways...this isnt' exactly off topic. This is a killer site I found and just want to share. I think the vast majority of ZH'ers will like using this site on a daily basis:
New aggregator site I just found that pretty much includes all kick ass sites (like ZH) all in one as well as video blog/podcast links. Very cool...just in case any of you all hadn't found it yet. I have no affiliation or anything like that...just think it includes essential informational sites for all our interests and purposes.
http://thelibertymill.com/
The Republicans will "fight the good fight" and drop the ball just like they did with everything from abortion to smaller government. Then the path will be clear for a bipartisan embrace of the tax increase that will save the planet. And to think that some people say taxes are bad!
AGW will be the end of smug, peer "reviewed" circle-jerk science. I can't wait. The Internet is reshaping science into an open medium where everyone can contribute.
What do you think net neutrality is really about: shutting down any independent idea or thought, that is the plan!!
NASA, the occult agency.
NASA should investigate the Republicans for Government-tampering.
This guy appears to have it right:

No comments about the koch brothers yet?
Have the left cocksuckers peak oilers/climate changers true believers left ZH???
What do you want to hear about the Koch suckers? This site's commenters are some of the dumbest redneck fools on the planet, and the denier who runs the site is little better. Assholes.
For almost three years I have been calling AGW a fraud not because of any actual temperature changes, but because CO2 is NOT A FUCKING GREENHOUSE GAS. It retains slightly less heat than the average of Earth's atmosphere, and as such you can put out as much as you want and all it will do is cause an immeasurable tiny bit of cooling. Any increase in temperature can be accounted for via H2O emissions and forcing (ie irrigation, paving, combustion, and cooling towers), and as H2O is in tight equilibrium (ie it falls out of the atmosphere after 3 days) it won't cause runaway warming like CO2 would.
Honestly, a single glance at the relative concentrations of CO2 and H2O, and their IR spectra would tell you that CO2 won't cause any warming.
Yup.
Voodoo...
Ding ding ding!!!!
The Intertewbz is the threat to the long standing paradigm whereby, pewblik edewkayshun, pewblik libraries, and MSM, are able to be gatekeepers of information.
Shutting down any independent thought or idea is also the agenda of what they're doing to our kids in the 'schools'. Common Core is about dumbing down the cirriculum and 'proper behavior and attitude re-training' combined with privacy loss through a data base on every person from womb to grave. The proposal for free community colleges is to shunt people into narrow worker 'training' versus a broad education which would include learning critical thinking skills. (Of course, they also want to bring in millions more illegals even though we have record low labor participation rates.)
The psychopath control freaks are even targeting people's (and especially the youth's) capacity to think for themselves.
The current American system is corrupt and evil from top to bottom. It's large institutions (the fascist govt/corporate partnership) co-operate to wage war against the American people.
Who gives a damn what congress investigates. They will lie, or if they tell the truth about the man made global 'warming'/climate change fraud - the mass media will kill the story.
Well at least with dumbass repubnicants in charge we will get some kind of debate over and inquiry into the actual merits of AGW in a public forum. The demunists and commocrats were so afraid someone might see the BS behind their control agenda they dishonestly and outrageously declare the debate over beforre it had even been started and strenuously blocked any public debate over these issues merely trying to cram some fascist carbon trading scheme through in the 111th. HUmanity is very fortunate the architects of that shit are gone, with the exception of Pelosi, the witch who hangs on trying to pretend she is still relevant in some way.
Billy, is that an illustration from Breakfast of Champions in your avatar?
Even outright proof that gloabal warming is a hoax/scam/false will not stop the taxes that will be levied to "stop" it.
It is a governmental money and power grab, pure and simple. Little things like facts/truth/reality won't get in the way of it happening.
Someday they'll grow so brazen they'll admit they're just going to take shit because they can, and fuck everyone who doesn't like it. For now, they still need the "cover" of scary stories.
I apologize for posting this a bit more than bots will appreciate. This guy appears to have it right: http://www.endofinnocence.com/2010/05/anthropogenic-global-warming.html
once again, sorry.
Ice Age cometh, yes, yes it does..
http://russia-ic.com/news/show/13717
One of the best and most thoroughly researched books I ever read about the AGW scam was by Michael Crichton, State of Fear. The book is a fiction thriller novel, but Crichton, like he did in most of his books, did meticulous research and documented everything.
I would recommend reading it, if you haven't already, because it'll really open your eyes to the manipulation that is being done by the government and the media. You can always tell an environmentalist reviewer because they say they hate the book and go into a spiel about AGW.
http://www.michaelcrichton.net/books-stateoffear.html
Agreed. He makes some very revealing statements in the epilogue about Hitler and eugenics too.
Kudos for mentioning Michael Crichton's excellent, scathingly satirical book about AGW. I will forever more picture being eaten by cannibals as the perfect, karmic fate for Hollywood blowhards...
Kudos to the late, great Michael Crichton for having the courage to write it - being totally paranoid, I have always suspected that Crichton was put down by the deep state because he had accumulated too much influence among the sheep (and was off the reservation with "State of Fear", which nails it starting with the title).
I also suspect that Tom Clancy was put down the same way, because of what is happening in Ukraine right now, and he was not trusted enough to follow the Zionist inner-party line.
I also harbor the suspicion that Hunter S Thompson was put down - he was supposedly looking too closely into 9/11 and the controlled demolition of WTC1, WTC2, and WTC7 by the Zionist inner-party.
If as is likely the Deep State offed Michael Hasting just for looking too closely into the American surveillance state, then the likelyhood they consistently bump off anyone who might foster a different narrative is not so far fetched...
Thompson was more likely killed because he discovered the pedo-parties that are now coming out in the press.
It's getting harder and harder to control the spread of information thanks to the internet. No wonder they are trying so hard to shut it down.
Penn State. Institutionalized homosexual pedophilia. Nuff Said.
Hey, I went to Penn State. But I was one of the handful of people whose favorite thing about football games was the fact that they made the rest of the campus look like a scene from The Omega Man. A guy could really get some thinking done. Not that that mattered, it was Penn State.
Thats what sucks, the "science" is being manipulated.
I ranted & raved for years about the USSR's economic collapse (think Siberia and manned stations) being taken off the weather matrix.
Oh nmewn, pish posh, we now have satellites that can "estimate" temps. Oh, isn't that grand but you also have weather monitoring GROUND STATIONS sitting next to asphalt parking lots and idling cars & trucks along with air conditioning exhaust fans blowing directly on them in the heat of summer, so estimate that...lol.
What a fucking farce.
Bingo, calling it a "Carbon" tax is a misnomer, CarbonDIoxide (ie, 2 Oxygen atoms) is the end product of the "Oxygen Cycle" which produces 2 Oxygens for each Carbon atom, hence the correct name should be The Oxygen tax.
It is a life tax. Because plants cannot vote.
It may seem like a misnomer to you but I reckon it is a deliberate label.
It is deliberate pre-programming of the sheeple so that they come to associate fossil fuels with the tax.
<<Bingo, calling it a "Carbon" tax is a misnomer,>>
Is "breath tax" the new conservative catch phrase invented by Frank Luntz? He sure is a crafty devil!
This is just another round of verbal masterbation with no happy ending.
I'm sure the Republicans will figure out a way to fuck this up, just like they've fucked up every decent idea they've had since the Eisenhower administration.
Yes Buck almost like they are not on our side but have some ulterior motive for the end game... Sure they give us some incrementalism but in the end you get it in the ass and they stay on top always on top.... Weird isn't it, I wonder what could explain such a thing?
I have argued with Flak that it is meaningless to even state a "global temperature" as you have to have so many qualifiers that it becomes meaningless.
These qualifiers are what GW "scientists" use to massage raw data to fit their needs.
This has always been about control, nothing more, nothing less.
To actually go after the data, which was pointed out before with East Anglia, is criminal. Makes all conclusions invalid because the very foundation of discussion is not hard data, but results.
Just more bullshit.
pods
I think most here know that Flak is full of shit when it comes to this topic. This is the nail in the coffin for the Al Gore and GW camp.
TPTB are determined to control energy with wars abroad and regulation at home. They won't give up easily. US troops will remain stationed in and around the Middle East for as long as Federal Reserve notes flow and some version of energy regulation and taxation will prevail for just as long.
Flak, come out come out wherever you are, I enjoy kicking your psuedoscientific ass....
Flak's views on climate were unpopular but his commentary on oil and NG are missed.
So he can preach his peak oil nonsense some more? No thanks. That guy literally said that oil was not possible under $70 a barrel.
The door refused to open. It said, "Five cents, please."
He searched his pockets. No more coins; nothing. "I'll pay you tomorrow," he told the door. Again it remained locked tight. "What I pay you," he informed it, "is in the nature of a gratuity; I don't have to pay you."
"I think otherwise," the door said. "Look in the purchase contract you signed when you bought this conapt."
...he found the contract. Sure enough; payment to his door for opening and shutting constituted a mandatory fee. Not a tip.
"You discover I'm right," the door said. It sounded smug.
From Ubik, by Philip K. Dick.
Don't forget Goldman Sachs will trade those carbon credits.
Inefficient energy sources will instead be propped up and buffered from free market competition by the government.
The taxed companies will pass down the taxes to We the People, and energy costs will rise for us, the consumers.
The State will subsidize and hence sponsor, mandated education that "global warming" is in fact, stifling debate.
Wall Street will have a great time doing all the carbon credits trading using derivatives with "underlying assets" that are literally in many cases, just hot air.
It's not JUST about a tax, it's about having the world population (especially americans) accept a tax from an entity outside their government. Taxation without representation, I believe it was termed. This is the camel's head creeping under the tent. I believe this is the real thrust behind this movement. Imagine if the united nations could unilaterally impose a tax on every individual in the world. Christ, I can't get my local county gov't to keep their hands out of my pockets, what chance would we stand on a world wide basis? Talk about the pinnacle of corruption!
She's too busy preparing her presentation in Paris to be troubled by irritating distractions like Truth. Much more fun contemplating various penalties for noncompliance to the Kyoto Protocol. I'd love to hear the comments and suggestions in the breakout sessions. Prison, water boarding, reindoctrination camps.... the list is endless!

Just don't investigate the Bankers or the Fed .....cause that could destroy the world......hehehehhehe
As The Telegraph's Christopher Booker concludes,
All time? Bazant published his so-called peer reviewed "progressive collapse" theory of the fall of the twin towers two days after 9/11 on the 13th without taking any meaningful measurements nor examining any physical evidence. An answer to a later paper of Bazant's by engineer Tony Szamboti, et al, showing blatant errors and falsifications was rejected after 27 months of stalling by the Journal of Engineering Mechanics as "out of scope".
Tony tells the story in this interview: http://noliesradio.org/archives/74057 (in a hurry go to min. 38)
NIST is hiding behind Bazant's fraud, as they did not independently describe the actual collapse sequence.
The plan to make energy prices "skyrocket" (on top of the fact that folks are already using and paying for more due to the extreme cold) and to use that money to try to make it even colder will kill far more people than 9/11 when all is said and done.

Faked data is old news.
http://www.popularmechanics.com/science/environment/a5154/4338343/
This global warming scam turned into a Climate Change scam after the release of emails from East Anglia back in 2009.
Basic data was altered via their programming to give a biased increase in temperature. That is the original root of the global warming myth. Which was a radical change to the global cooling myth of the 70's.
It's all about research grants and 'prestige' from getting larger research grants.
Somehow this reminds me of the story of Soviet (or was it Chinese) economic data output. Each and every bureaucrat along the chain had an incentive to lie to pretend that their output was higher than it was, yet the Party was somehow surprised to find that they all lied, systematically, and without communication with each other.
This is what socialism does to people.
Think about it, one of the guys most credited with being the "voice" of alarm use to sit on a floor with his wife, get stoned asnd play records backwards looking for hidden messages.

Sorry to be an ass...but DUH...as soon as there was a CARBON TAX I knew this was shit. Was there a fucking Polio Tax? Nope.
The next carbon tax in this country will be the first. Wtf are you writing about? The glacers are melting and the sea is rising. The lack of rain is becoming a huge problem.
If the GOP Congress wants to investigate once and for all if humans burning carbon is causing climate change, then I'm all for it. If they want to waste time and money on making Obama the Lame Duck look worse, instead of focusing on science, then just stop already.
I read an article a few years back that the glaciers on Mount Shasta in California were growing because of global warming, "experts" said. They went on to explain the science of it. Maybe the raw data showing the drop in temperature of 1 degree over the last 65 years explains the shrinking glaciers. So what now? We need more carbon to increase global warming and reverse the shrinking glaciers? Lol. Just stop already now.
Studying the climate is science. Conjecture based upon faulty "data" is most certainly not science.

To save the planet and fix our problems, we need to lose the old folk! 60+ They complain, milk the system and take our jobs. -Minutes from 2020 DNC
Lack of rain appears to be a problem mostly contained within the borders of California. Die West Coast liberals! Die!

This brand of bullshit predates Obama's bullshit. It has no bearing on him other than he's all-in on the lie.
You must be in the U.S.A, we got green energy taxes on our gas and electricty here in the UK, all motoring taxztion is based on CO2, so the people who can afford new cars pay no road tax, while poorer people with old cars subsidise them. Aint life grand!
Go look at the Great Lakes. In the 1970s Time mag told us to prepare for an Ice Age. There are not enough reliable and empirical data points to make any conclusion on the warming of a billions of years old planet. I think Satellite temps suggest we have been in a cooling trend for the last 18 years.
Al Gore sure been quiet.
Have the Republicans repealed ObummerCare yet?
I'll believe it when they're forced to correct/restore the raw data and perps are out the door and/or in prison.

The climate will continue to get colder and we will need the paper to keep warm ;-)
Jesus Christ. Anybody with half a wit to spare can read anywhere about whole islands being submerged and their peoples and cultures being evacuated to new environments where they'll inevitably fail to fit in; where they'll die out as a people. I'm not making any political statement when I say it disgusts me that not only are they treated with impunity, but Western cultures even dare to deny that they ever existed.
Where would that be?
People with an environmental mind confuse pollution (a real problem) with a fear of human caused global warming (a theory that may prove true, but is many orders of magnitude more complicated than identifying pollution problems).
AGW is now religion for many.
In late antiquity, Ravenna was a coastal city, and the Isthmus of Corinth was half a mile wide. The fact of non-anthropogenic climate change seems to get lost in the politics.
Then again, AGW is the perfect crisis for an era of narcissism.
Certainly not at my buddy's house in Florida who's lived on a canal for the last 20 years with no problems.
Same here, a buddy behind Weedons Island in the Burg, 30yrs. The barnacle & oyster line is exactly where it has always been on the seawall.

Help me understand then , if the seas are really rising, why do I still have to go thru the boat cut of the Galveston north jetty if I want to fish the Gulf side without going around the end? The jetties.were.built in the 1890's, yet they remain visible to all.
Maybe the sea.level was higher around the disappearing islands?
Maybe for the same reason the east and west locks of the Panama Canal are at different altitudes? Currents and sea temperature make a difference you know.
You're like stomach cancer only more depressing.
Because it's only rising 2 mm/yr at the Galveston North Jetty (but it IS rising).
Tectonics, asshole.
Read a book.
The Telegraph is pure Tavistock.
Information is like food - you need to work at it and only ingest that which provides nutrition and avoid junk lest you become a mindless zombie (perhaps its too late for you).
The islands inundated has been debunked so many times only a true idiot or Batt77 peterpuffers dare push it.. I name him peterpuffer, was that insensitive of me??
Dear Lord who knows but damn, it sounds awful. Maybe we should form a task force to find out and implement strategies to rescue them. Doesn't anybody care about anyone anymore? This place is filled with heartless cretins!

May I suggest Mother-Frigging Pissed Microbiologist?
Miff, I was bollixed when I came here 3+ years ago and I may be more bollixerd now than I was then. Always look forward to your comments.
Miffed works just fine for me. It suggests someone of high moral character looking down in distain on that which is clearly wrong. It's what a dignified English woman would be if, say, a V2 rocket landed in her arboretum. (thinking Python here.... work with me)
"Where would that be?" World Of Watercraft. This here is kind of a disgrace though: http://www.thestar.com/news/world/2012/05/27/how_a_tiny_pacific_island_w...That is so tragic. Sometimes we humans ar indistinguishable from locusts. Madly reproduce, rape the land and move on leaving devastation behind. When will it end? Probably only when too late.

P.S. I wish if ever faced with the scenario you so described I would act with such grace and gentility as you deemed me capable. The dark side of me winces in embarrassment where it, unfortunately in reality, may end up. It's like reading history. Are these words true interpretion of fact or a glorification to inspire us how to think of past events? Who knows. Maybe the reason I fight skepticism.
You forgot the sarc tag.
...because land never sinks and water only rises, amirite?
But sometimes islands capsize because there are too many heavy things on them. It must be true; I heard it from a congresscritter.

LOL!! Upvote!
I thought after the year 2000, snow was gong to be as rare as a congress critter with integrity !!!
On its way.
Let's hope further debate is Scientific and not political.
snoball's chance in hell...
good luck getting it past guys like this:
3. The climate of Earth, our home planet, is, to put it as politely as possible, completely fucked. Now, there are quite a few people who think that radically altering the planet's atmospheric and ocean chemistry and physics by burning just over half the fossilized hydrocarbons that could possibly be dug up using industrial methods means nothing, and that what we are observing is just natural climate variability. These people are morons. I will delete every single one of the comments they submit in response to this post, but in spite of my promise to do so, I assure you that they will still submit them... because they are morons. [Update: Yes indeed they have, QED.]

Nothing like a True Believer to stifle debate.
LOL>>>>
It's ALL political now because these monsters can't compete if truth (science) is an arbiter.
Kinda like why we don't use real money as a medium of exchange. Gold (metal) sets limits.
These shitheads CAN'T survive in a reality is king environment.
Bingo, winner, winner chicken dinner.
So where will I redeem all these carbon credits I purchased?
Same (non-existant) place you recycle your bottles and cans that you now pay the state 0.10 a pop on. (Its such a hassel now we just chuck 'em in the recycle bin anymore)
I'm the guy that raids your recycle bin once you set it out on the curb. Thank you for your contribution.
That and my own prolific weekly consumption of MGD canned goods generates an extra $125 a week (I only do my street because I'm lazy and don't really need the money that bad.)
If I get laid off, my full time job would be raiding recycles the evening bins are set out. And I would be very professional in not leaving a mess, leaving anything that isn't aluminum, and not gathering personal information. Laid off my personal consumption of MGD would necessarily decline and I'd have a LOT more time to use in gathering and STILL be able to say I'm unemployed.

It became obvious when the name changed from Global Warming to Climate Change. GW just was not selling.
Audit the FED, audit NASA, think I'm warming up to these guys. Led by a group of libertarians too, no wonder shit is happening.
Sniffing for a psyopp. Control the investigation with a pretend opponent to avoid a real investigation that would show corruption with big dollars.
If either party start pointing at the geoengineering/chemtrail program we will have some fireworks.
I am pretty sure NASA's main purpose is muslim outreach, right? So what in Sam Hill is all this commotion over long term termprature manipulation about? Wow...talk about mission creep!
I remember recently NASA issued a statement that the SUN "could" effect climate.... Go figure, that giant ball of fusion that's responsible for all life on earth "could" alter the weather. Science bitchez.
Chemtrails are COAL ASH

everything is a scam
everything is a lie
Let's dive into this subject a little deeper, shall we?

As with anything else the same applies: WITH JEWS, YOU LOSE.
The jews need to repay us, but they won't.
The jews need to cease fire, but they won't.
Crank up the woodchipper
Why don't these Criminal fraud UNITED STATES, CORP. INC. Board of Directors aka CONgress investigate actual Crimes: IE.
Torture
NSA Global Spying / Espionage
Illegal Wars of Aggression
Drone Assassinations
Exporting debt / inflation
False Flags
CIA drug smugling / money laundering through the TBTFBanksters
CIA Destabiliaztion campaigns of Soverign Nations, ie. Ukraine
Bengazi, arming, funding & training of Al CIA duh terror organizations
Oh, that's rigjt. Criminals do not investigate Criminals.
NASA needs to go. I used to be a big supporter, but if they aren't expanding into space they serve no purpose.
I'm pretty sure Obama gave them some more important job -- something to do with making Muslims feel good about themselves.
Oh no! Not sen. Inhofe! A more glorious example of honesty and integ.... Bwahahahaha oh fuck me I almost got through that statement. Almost! Criminal lying fuckbags investigating a science organization. What could possibly go wrong? Why don't you two useless fuckwits in congress roll out a guillotine and lop off Yellens fucking head! Do something useful! You shitbags. You climate warming deniers, are the same homophobic asshats that swore the earth would reverse its orbit and plunge into the sun if gays were allowed to marry. Fuck off and die you witch burners!
"You climate warming deniers,"
Who are you talking about? Sure the climate warms ; sometimes it cools . If we knew exactly why , then there would be no need to be investigating climate change mechanisms, right?
We don't know why it changes sometimes; so we can't say one way or the other about AGW. It's just a hypothesis that' not behaving according to predictions. Nothing has been shown.
Now that's science.
X86, I always find it interesting that you AGW folks never reply with info or science, you only do name calling. Do you realize that a large majority of engineers and scientists are very skeptical of the whole AGW thing?
And of course, you can come back with that 97%baloney stuff. The criteria used to get to 97% would include me and most every other skeptic also, it is totally bogus.
So, here's a challenge for you. Let's see you reply on the merits, you know, data, science, etc. No name calling. I bet you can't do it. How about an intelligent discussion of the Maunder minimum, or the current sunspot activity levels (almost nil). This is the kind of stuff that skeptics talk about. Are you familiar with the mechanism where geomagnetic activity of the sun affects cloud formation on earth?
Well?
and there's this...

It's not bogus. Thats the reality. Accept it or not. But that does not change the reality. NDT said it best...

Hate to break this to you but you're neither Obama nor the Pope, so no one except you believes in the infallibility of your statements.
I never understood how people could come to the conclusion that science is incorruptible... especially in this environment. Apparently, its the one thing that's immune.
Witch burners?? Thats not fair the bitch didn't float so no burn.. Sure would like to meet you we could talk about how best to use energy or burning witches I suppose, favorite fuels etc..
No doubt you can provide a reference to your claim about "homophobic asshats that swore the earth would reverse its orbit and plunge into the sun if gays were allowed to marry", which actually identifies some of those "homophobic asshats" and their actual statements, so we aren't left with the impression you're one of those "Criminal lying fuckbags" that just makes things up, like so many of the AGW-faux-scientists the taxpayer is forced to pay for.
as someone hinted above, this is likely just propoganda / infighting amongst the various acronyms at the trough ( a funding skirmish)... though i personally have little doubt that said data was falsified.
This really does begin to look like.. Zero Hedge is about as reliable of a news and opinion piece as piece of sit fox news and rush limboff to print crap like this as something we're supposed to believe??? One ahole reinterpreting the work of about six universities, climate data centers,.. whatever. Knuckledragging morons will cheer on! Great work!
Universities - Spawners of so many genuii like Obama,Pelosi,Harf,Gruber,Gore,Psaki,Jerrit,Sebelius.Sorry but your treasured "neutral" scientists can be on the take like anyone else. What great good has Harvard provided for society in the last 40 years?

The Republicans have so damn much integrity, it's oozing out of every crevice like the guacamole that oozes out of a two-week-old diaper....
And here is the scary part - the US has cut emissions and slapped on ALL KINDS of industry stifling controls since 1970. So even if we can show global cooling (or level temps), the environmentalists will point to all the regulations as their 'success'! Sort of like the Fed saying "sure we spent trillions and the economy sucks - but it would have sucked even more if we didn't".
NOTICE: ON ANTHROPOGENIC GLOBAL WARMING AND CLIMATE CHANGE.
THERE IS NO FUCKING "DEBATE"! THE INHOFE/ROHRABACHER SYNDROME WILL DESTROY THE BIOSPHERE AND ALL HUMANITY WITH IT.
GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE!
