Why climate gate is bogus and based on lies.

Writing for the UK's Gaurdian news today, Fred Pearce has a very in-depth analysis of how the 'climategate' scandal is bogus and based on climate sceptics' lies.
Pearce explains that,
"Almost all the media and political discussion about the hacked climate emails has been based on brief soundbites publicised by professional sceptics and their blogs. In many cases, these have been taken out of context and twisted to mean something they were never intended to."
Couldn't have said it better myself. The so-called 'climategate' has been hyped by an over-the-top right-wing press and an over-excited gang of bloggers who use everything other than actual scientific research to prove their point.

What keeps getting and better is the desperate denier cabal.:lol:

I have to say, I prefer this twitter style of spamming other peoples opinions by Walter. I'd still prefer to hear him actually show that his brain has consolidated the information, and attempt to show some reasoning and use of logic, at least discuss the content.

But if he's not going to do that, it's far easier on the eyes to read his tweets, than it is to wade through the muck in his cut and paste jobs.

Even the corals in Florida know there is no AGW.
Perhaps the corals don't like the temperature changes. Gee, I wonder what causes temperature changes and other weather anomalies, couldn't be climate change, could it? Corals in the Maldives, the Seychelles, and Jamaica seem to be suffering from warmer temperatures, but I guess that means nothing to you. Perhaps you should warm up your mind a little, it seems to be getting numb.
Oh, but look, the article did mention Florida's coral reefs are not the same as they used to be and are suffering from higher temps than normal, too.

"The result is known as coral bleaching, which some scientists believe is a result of global warming. "

From the article. Just curious as to the effect of warming and coral reefs. Aren't they tropical? The water around Florida I am sure is a lot cooler than the South Pacific. Why aren't all those reefs gone completely IF climate change i.e warming, is a factor?

Yep, they are having cold weather right now in Florida.



During the cold weather snap we had here in Florida last week, the water temperature never dropped below 71-72F, in the summer it goes up to about 85-88. Not sure if that is enough changed to effect the coral. Boats I know destroy them as well as star fish and other creatures.

For about the 9 millionth time: critters have certain temperature ranges they can survive in. The corals around Florida (among many others) have been getting warmed and cooled past their tolerable temp range. They are also very sensitive to the pH of the water in their habitat.
BTW, corals are not limited to tropical waters. Cold Water Coral Reefs

"Server not found". That's kind of what I imagine a brain scan on you would result in.
