New study shows half of the global warming in the USA is artificial

Reported By wattsupwiththat.com on 2012-07-29

“A reanalysis of U.S. surface station temperatures has been performed using the recently WMO-approved Siting Classification System devised by METEO-Frances Michel Leroy. The new siting classification more accurately characterizes the quality of the location in terms of monitoring long-term spatially representative surface temperature trends. The new analysis demonstrates that reported 1979-2008 U.S. temperature trends are spuriously doubled, with 92% of that over-estimation resulting from erroneous NOAA adjustments of well-sited stations upward. The paper is the first to use the updated siting system which addresses USHCN siting issues and data adjustments….”

The godfather of global warming lowers the boom on climate change hysteria

Lovelock “says its now clear the doomsday predictions, including his own (and Al Gore’s) were incorrect. He responds to attacks on his revised views by noting that, unlike many climate scientists who fear a loss of government funding if they admit error, as a freelance scientist, hes never been afraid to revise his theories in the face of new evidence. Indeed, thats how science advances.”

Professor fired after expressing climate change skepticism

Reported By Fox News on 2012-06-20

“Oregon State University chemistry professor Nicholas Drapela was fired without warning three weeks ago and has still been given no reason for the universitys decision….In 2007, Drapela began giving talks on his own climate change skepticism. He often and openly questioned the science behind man-made global warming…. Speculation has abounded that Drapela was fired for being a global warming critic.”

Climate skeptic instructor fired from Oregon State University

“We learned over the weekend that chemist Nickolas Drapela, PhD has been summarily fired from his position as a Senior Instructor in the Department of Chemistry….Dr. Drapela is an outspoken critic of the theory of Anthropogenic Global Warming, the official religion of the State of Oregon, the Oregon Democratic Party, and Governor John Kitzhaber….OSU climate research has grown to be a huge business, reportedly $90 million per year with no real deliverables beyond solid academic support for climate hysteria.”

Sorry Global Warming Alarmists, The Earth is Cooling

Reported By www.forbes.com on 2012-05-31

“Climate change itself is already in the process of definitively rebutting climate alarmists who think human use of fossil fuels is causing ultimately catastrophic global warming. That is because natural climate cycles have already turned from warming to cooling, global temperatures have already been declining for more than 10 years, and global temperatures will continue to decline for another two decades or more….”

Global warming skeptics as knowledgeable about science as climate change believers, study says

“As respondents science literacy scores increased, their concern with climate change decreased…. Peoples cultural views – how much they value things like individualism and equality — affect their views on global warming much more than actual knowledge about science.”

No Need to Panic About Global Warming

Reported By online.wsj.com on 2012-05-28

An open letter signed by 16 qualified scientists. “… Speaking for many scientists and engineers who have looked carefully and independently at the science of climate, we have a message to any candidate for public office: There is no compelling scientific argument for drastic action to “decarbonize” the world’s economy. Even if one accepts the inflated climate forecasts of the IPCC, aggressive greenhouse-gas control policies are not justified economically….”

Meteorologists are Global Warming Skeptics

Reported By www.forbes.com on 2012-03-14

“Arecent surveyof American Meteorological Society members shows meteorologists are skeptical that humans are causing a global warming crisis. The survey confirms what many scientists have been reporting for years; the politically focused bureaucratic leadership of many science organizations is severely out of touch with the scientists themselves regarding global warming issues…”
