Everybody knows that the USA surface record shows a strong warming and everybody also knows that nearly half the readings are statistical fabrications, everybody also knows that the made up readings are based on the nearest urban readings, often from airports. Everyone knows that without these estimates the record would show a cooling.

If Scientists were genuinely concerned about the greenhouse gas problem they would investigate technologies such as this: ..:: Welcome to Nualgi ::.. Volcanoes spray the seas with iron that has the effect of creating phytoplankton that feeds into the food chain. The effect is to draw CO2 from the atmosphere, sequester carbon, de acidify the seas and oceans and provide more Oxygen
Scientists and the global warming zealots have killed off any attemts to experiment with Ocean fertilisation technology. I wonder whyLet us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment

Everyone.
Q.*Does GISS do any data checking and alterations?
A.*Yes. GISS applies semi-automatic quality control routines listing records that look unrealistic. After manual inspection, those data are either kept or rejected. GISS does make an adjustment to deal with potential artifacts associated with urban heat islands, whereby the long-term regional trend derived from rural stations is used instead of the trends from urban centers in the analysis.

Originally posted by pjclarke View PostSee above. You underestimate the discipline if you believe that these factors have not been discussed and adjusted for ad infinitum, and uncertainties clearly stated. The review process is multi-stepped and every step is completely open. If you know of a better way of assessing and communicating the state of our understanding, and informing policymakers, I'd love to hear it.
Originally posted by pjclarke View PostUsing your narrow definition, any data that was not generated under laboratory conditions is not 'trustworthy'. Using that principle, astronomy, for example, does not qualify as science. Now that is absurd.

The state religion has nothing to do with the Church of England anymore. We're all being taxed to support it, too.Comment
