100% Of US Warming Over The Last 20 Years Is Due To Adjustments Measured US temperatures show no warming over the past 20 years, while the temperatures published by NCDC show 3.4F/century warming during that period. The graph below shows the difference between the average final USHCN station temperature, and the average raw USHCN station temperature. All reported warming in the US since 1994 is due to highly subjective adjustments by government scientists who personally benefit from global warming alarmism. http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/...over-the-last-20-years-is-due-to-adjustments/
http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/who-is-steven-goddard/ Who Is Steven Goddard? My name is Tony Heller. I am a whistle blower. I am an independent thinker who is considered a heretic by the orthodoxy on both sides of the climate debate. I live in Columbia, Maryland â an amazing city where I can ride my bicycle everywhere through the forest, and never need to get in a car. I am a lifelong environmentalist. I testified at my first Congressional subcommittee hearing at age 15 in Kanab, Utah, in support of a wilderness area â very close to the one which President Obama recently set aside. I worked to get the Clean Air Act passed. I worked as a volunteer wilderness ranger for two summers in the Cibola and Santa Fe National Forests in New Mexico. I worked on the Safety Analysis Report for DOEâs nuclear waste disposal site in New Mexico. I probably have the smallest electricity bill in Columbia, Maryland because I am very careful not to waste. I have never turned on my heat or air conditioning. I have degrees in Geology and Electrical Engineering, and worked on the design team of many of the worldâs most complex designs, including some which likely power your PC or Mac. I have worked as a contract software developer on climate and weather models for the US government. I do not receive any funding other than small donations on my blog, which have worked out well below minimum wage. I have tried to obtain funding, but skeptics with money are terrified of political attacks directed by the White House and/or being targeted by the IRS. They openly state this to me. My position on global warming: The claims of 97% consensus are a massive lie. Only 52% of American Meteorological Society members believe that man is the primary contributor to global warming. The radiative transfer models used by government climate scientists show that going up to 550 PPM or even 1000 PPM CO2 will make minimal difference to the radiative balance of the atmosphere. The knee of the CO2 curve is at about 30 PPM, and additional CO2 has little first order effect. This is because almost all radiation in the CO2 absorption spectra is already being absorbed by H2O or CO2 molecules. Adding more CO2 has minimal effect, because there is not much radiation left to be absorbed. (This is a bit of an oversimplification because of second order effects, but those are also small.) There is no indication from the radiative transfer models used by government scientists that additional CO2 will cause large amounts of heating. The temperature record of both the US and the world has been massively altered since older versions, almost invariably to create the appearance of more warming, and in some cases to create warming where there is none. Sea level has been rising for 20,000 years, and is now 400 feet higher than it was when the first humans walked to North America from Asia across the Bering Strait. Most of the apparent sea level rise on the US East Coast is due to the land sinking, not sea level rising. There has been little or no sea level rise on the West Coast. The weather is not getting more severe. Since President Obama took office, there have been three US hurricane strikes â the fewest of any presidency. While Grover Cleveland was president in the 1880â²s, the US was hit by twenty-six hurricanes. The US is currently experiencing its longest period since the 1860â²s without a major (category 3-5) hurricane strike. The last one was Wilma in 2005. Florida is currently experiencing the longest period on record without a hurricane strike. The US tornado count over the past two years has been the lowest in the modern record. Americaâs worst forest fires occurred in 1871, when thousands of people burned to death in horrific firestorms around the Great Lakes â on the same day that Chicago burned to the ground. Is climate change real? Climate is cyclical and is always changing. People always imagine that they live in the worst of times, as this 1871 article from the Brisbane Courier states. BkV2czHCQAEkDE0 (1) 10 Jan 1871 â IMAGINARY CHANGES OF CLIMATE. (Pall Mall Gazette.) If you want to learn more about climate history, I have assembled a large collection of old newspaper articles about the weather below 350 PPM CO2. If you read through this, you will understand that lowering CO2 will not make the weather any better, or worse. I am more than happy to debate anyone who feels up to the challenge, including the President of The United States. Science works through research and debate â not censorship, propaganda, faith, or intimidation. Share this:
Thanks to the wayback machine, here's who fraudcurrents' messiah,John Cook, of skepticalscience is in his own words "This site was created by John Cook. I'm not a climatologist or a scientist but a self employed cartoonist and web programmer by trade." http://web.archive.org/web/20080213042858/http://www.skepticalscience.com/page.php?p=3
Yes jerm, the name Goddard was chosen to help spread disinformation about man made global warming. How about quoting from a reliable source for once you lying POS ?
And still the asshole 666 ignores the real reason for the temp adjustments. Amazing. Like he doesn't want you to know. Would spoil the lies. Note: multiple data sets. They closely agree.
whats the reason for the adjustments... why would you adjust recent winter temperatures up by a couple of by over a degree and past temperatures down by a about a degree... celsius? if you were worried about the heat island effect you would adjust recent temperatures down not up. Why would you use simulated model temperatures when you have the real temperatures.
ROFLMAO!!!!! The Truth about Skeptical Science John Cook is now desperately trying to cover up his background that he was employed as a cartoonist for over a decade with no prior employment history in academia or climate science. Thanks to the Wayback Machine we can reveal what his website originally said, "I'm not a climatologist or a scientist but a self employed cartoonist" - John Cook, Skeptical Science http://www.populartechnology.net/2012/03/truth-about-skeptical-science.html
And what would know about science? There is no indication at all of any intelligence or knowledge from you. Probably more than Steven Goddard. Because he is not even a real person. Fraud person fraud site.
American Meteorological Society "It is clear from extensive scientific evidence that the dominant cause of the rapid change in climate of the past half century is human-induced increases in the amount of atmospheric greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), chlorofluorocarbons, methane, and nitrous oxide."
