    Default Press regulators censure English climate science deniers for lying

    Claims in the Mail on Sunday that global warming data had been exaggerated in order to secure the Paris climate change agreement have been criticised by the UK’s press regulator.

    The Independent Press Standards Organisation censured the newspaper for publishing a story in early February that was flawed in key aspects. The news story suggested that data from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), one of the world’s gold-standard sources of weather and climate research, had been treated in such a way as to suggest greater warming than had really occurred.

    The research hinged on the “pause” in global warming that had been seized on by dismissers of climate change as evidence that the concerns of mainstream scientists had been overblown. The so-called pause or hiatus has long been a contentious issue in climate science. The outlier year of 1998 was exceptionally hot, owing to a strong El Niño, and these record temperatures were not surpassed for several years.

    This allowed sceptics to claim that global warming had stopped until 2013. However, as mainstream scientists pointed out, the years following 1998 still exhibited an upward temperature trajectory compared with the long-term average, so while the upward march of temperatures was slightly slower, and some years were cooler than others, talk of a “pause” that suggested an end to global warming was misleading."

    I pity a country that supports the abandonment of the scientific method in order to promote a global social justice agenda.

    Lying in a fishwrap about science is not the scientific method. Censure, to be disambiguated from censorship for the intellectually deprived, is therefore not abandonment of the scientific method. It is the reassertion of it. It also has the serendipitous effect of proving Cornholio's threads parroting that same lying article were necessarily a bunch of unadulterated anti-scientific baseless and repudiated bullshit.

    I can't believe that Macabre is still clinging to the lie that is man made global warming, yet pounds away on his computer using fossil fuels to spout his lies. Seems contradictory to me

    Tell us dear OP, what do you do to live a greener life? What have you given up to save mother erf?

    You see, I hear libtards like you talk a good game, but I never see you act. Sort of like GayRod spouting on here about helping the poor and needy, but when a calamity hits his neighborhood does he help? Nope, he takes his spawn to Disney World for some R&R

    Anyone who claims the Mail knows more about science than a cow's arse has never read the archaic drivel.

    If NOAA believed they had been wronged they could pursue libel and slander remedy. Fact is they knew they had been screwing around and got caught so they just had to let it go.

    Not censored, censured. Cut and dried. They read it, and if it's all lies, they censure them. First it was cut, then it was dried.
    Censure means, for lack of a good synonym "officially scolded." To censor is to enjoin from expressing oneself.

    If the US had a press regulator, Fox would have to shut down shop. All they do is lie.
