Global warming hysteria

Global warming scientists fudge data

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the UN body pushing for laws that would limit man-made carbon emissions through a series of ultra-draconian regulations aimed primarily at developed nations, has a dirty little secret: its scientists have fudged their data to make the -- picture look worse than it actually is.
That’s what Douglas J. Keenan, an obvious global warming denier who bothered to check the documentation used by the IPCC’s chief climatologist, Dr. P. D. Jones in the IPCC’s latest report.
Jones, in conjunction with several other scientists published a paper purporting to use long-term data from 84 weather stations in --. The authors claimed these stations were chosen on the basis that they had not been changed or relocated since 1954 so that their data stream would provide a reliable record of temperatures over a 30+-year period.
Jones and his associates and later another IPCC scientist named Wang issued a similar report claimed that the stations were used because they had not been moved over a long period of time. "The stations were selected on the basis of station history: we chose those with few, if any, changes in instrumentation, location or observation times. [Jones et al.] They were chosen based on station histories: selected stations have relatively few, if any, changes in instrumentation, location, or observation times...." [Wang et al.]

But when checking over the claims made by Dr. Jones, Wang and their associates, Keenan discovered discrepancies that he says couldn’t possibly be accidental. So the only logical conclusion is that Jones and his cohorts lied. Keenan’s charge stemmed from the fact that the -- Department of Energy and the Chinese Academy of Sciences issued a joint report, which stated that 49 of the 84 weather stations had no history as to location, or instrumentation changes available. The remaining 35 stations, Keenan discovered, had indeed had changes in instrumentation and movement, in one case, movement as much as 41 kms.

Ahhh shucks....another one

I think the only hysteria is in the people who are ranting about conspiracy and such.

It was at rest since Aug 21st, 2007 until you dug it up

I only bring one up when there is already three on the front page...

I don't like the number three...

I'm almost certain that the globe has warmed 3 times 'cause of humanity.

I can see why you don't like that #... I see a conspiracy here.

I like Dennis Miller

This is different than Danny Glover how? Well Miller is funny, but that the only difference!
