Federal scientist cooked climate change books ahead of Obama presentation, whistle blower charges

A key Obama administration scientist brushed aside inconvenient data that showed a slowdown in global warming in compiling an alarming 2015 report that coincided with the White House participation in the Paris Climate Conference, a whistle blower is alleging.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), in a major 2013 report, concluded global temperatures had shown a smaller increase from 1998 to 2012 than any similar period over the past 30 to 60 years. But a blockbuster, June 2015 paper by a team of federal scientists led by Thomas Karl, published in the journal Science in June 2015 and later known as the “pausebuster" paper sought to discredit the notion of a slowdown in warming.

"Our new analysis suggests that the apparent hiatus may have been largely the result of limitations in past datasets, and that the rate of warming over the first 15 years of this century has, in fact, been as fast or faster than that seen over the last half of the 20th century," Karl, who was at the time director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Centers for Environmental Information, said at the time.

Ooooops!

The left don't care about scientists cooking the books. My best friend has a son who is employed in the scientific field as a molecular engineer. She said her son is such a believer in CAGW that he and his wife are going to forgo having children. She has asked me to help her understand the skeptic arguments so she can convince her son he doesn't need to sacrifice. I linked her up with some evidence of collusion between scientists such as the climategate emails where the scientists wrote about adjusting sea surface temps to get rid of the 40s blip. I sent them the link about Gates. Her son's response was that the two datasets (HADCRUT and NOAA) align very well. He doesn't care that the scientists colluded to adjust the past temps. He just didn't care. I have to tell her I think there's no hope of changing his mind when he ignores a whistleblower from the source he cites. He also continues to cite skepticalscience despite the site owner being a dubious researcher.
Skeptical Science is run by that dickhead John Cook, he of the notorious 97% consensus study that has been rubbished comprehensively.

Why the fuck would Snopes know anyway? They don't have anybody with the clout to criticise a scientist of the calibre of John Bates!!
I am surprised that you haven't used Hot Whopper or Skeptical Science. Here is Judith Curry, who has impeccable credentials discussing the matter. Apart from the fact that she is a climatologist, a woman and she knows her shit, what have you got against her?

Freeman Dyson , without doubt the greatest living physicist and contemporary of Einstein, says that computer models are next to useless.

https://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/04/05/freeman-dyson-speaks-out-about-climate-science-and-fudge/

Models are useful in engineering because the variables are all known and knowable. Not to mention they get feedback on the validity of the models after they build the bridge lol.

All that's nearly impossible with modeling the earths climate. And you don't need to be a world class physicist to realize it.
 
Of they all go into their alternative reality. The trumpers will be re-publishing the Protocols of the Elders of Zion next!

Splendid.

Science is self-correcting.

I suspect there's more than one technical error within the current consensus of science.

So shall we chuck it all, and return to dancing in grass skirts around the fire to keep evil spirits away from the mouth of the cave?

No, we return to the principles laid down by the late great Richard Feynman and dump the Cargo Cult Science perpetuated by CAGW shysters.

David Rose follows up his story from last week:

They were duped – and so were we. That was the conclusion of last week’s damning revelation that world leaders signed the Paris Agreement on climate change under the sway of unverified and questionable data.

A landmark scientific paper –the one that caused a sensation by claiming there has been NO slowdown in global warming since 2000 – was critically flawed. And thanks to the bravery of a whistleblower, we now know that for a fact.

The response has been extraordinary, with The Mail on Sunday’s disclosures reverberating around the world. There have been nearly 150,000 Facebook ‘shares’ since last Sunday, an astonishing number for a technically detailed piece, and extensive coverage in media at home and abroad.

It has even triggered an inquiry by Congress. Lamar Smith, the Texas Republican who chairs the House of Representatives’ science committee, is renewing demands for documents about the controversial paper, which was produced by America’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the world’s leading source of climate data.

In his view, the whistleblower had shown that ‘NOAA cheated and got caught’. No wonder Smith and many others are concerned: the revelations go to the very heart of the climate change industry and the scientific claims we are told we can trust.

Remember, the 2015 Paris Agreement imposes gigantic burdens and its effects are felt on every household in the country. Emissions pledges made by David Cameron will cost British consumers a staggering £319 billion by 2030 – almost three times the annual budget for the NHS in England.

That is not the end of it. Taxpayers also face an additional hefty contribution to an annual £80 billion in ‘climate aid’ from advanced countries to the developing world. That is on top of our already gargantuan aid budget. Green levies and taxes already cost the average household more than £150 a year.

"The fact that somebody over-sells an idea doesn't make it a bad idea. It makes them a bad salesman." Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA ret)

If Bradly says global warming turns the cosmos paisley it doesn't invalidate AGW. It does suggest dear Brad should lighten up on the 'shrooms.
 
A nearly, 20 year "pause" in global warming that proves all the computer models to be invalid IS significant. Deny THAT!

And that is what the Al Gorians attempted to ERASE, just as they have erased the medieval warm period and the little ice age from the temperature record. :palm:

"20 year "pause"" #34

Do tell.
Which 20 years?
 
I so enjoy these wild conspiracy theories.

The wilder they are, the more improbable they are, the more amusing they are.

So here we go:

a) The deniers don't dispute the data, accepted by not just a few mad scientists, but the scientific consensus around the world.

b) Instead of dispute, or refute, they dismiss and deny. Please remind me. What are THEIR credentials again?

c) Despite exceedingly high standards of the scientific community eager to debunk and expose frauds like Ponds & Fleishman's "cold fusion" claims, somehow this deranged conspiracy of the bulk of Earth's scientist community is willing to jeopardize their hard earned credentials & reputations so $Millionaire AlGore "and his ilk" can get a little richer!

So lemme guess Y #1. You're NOT a scientist?!

Actually it is so the scientists can get richer

Science has been no less politicized than anything else. Politicians want science "proving" man made global warming and many scientists comply.

I have a general rule of thumb. If it comes out of a lefties mouth it is assumed to be a lie
 
"Seriously you make Chauncey Gardiner look intelligent!!" M #36

Excellent.
Seriously.
Which 20 years?

Any reply that is not a two decade date range, or no reply will be proof that the point I'd have refuted if a responsive reply had been provided, is not valid. Thanks for making it so easy for me.
