"After errors, global warming gets a cold shoulder; Critics point to mistakes, e-mail theft to raise doubts on research; poll shows less public concern" by Beth Daley, Globe Staff | March 8, 2010
Because we realize we have been taken for a ride, MSM.
And it was a LEAK, not a "theft."
A series of highly publicized errors in a landmark report about manmade global warming - and lingering controversy over hacked e-mails between climate scientists - is eroding public confidence in the research and could further stall efforts in Congress to pass climate legislation.
Yeah, F*** YOU and your LYING AGENDA!

This was the last straw for me, folks.
LYING about the WEATHER!!!
The errors - involving projections, citations of source materials, and geography - have been seized on by skeptics of the scientific consensus that the burning of fossil fuels is almost certainly the most significant cause of earth’s rising temperature. Now, there are signs the critics are succeeding at raising doubts.
Because TRUTH WILL OUT and people ONLY NEED GO OUTSIDE to see the truth for themselves!
In recent weeks, Texas, Virginia, and Alabama officials filed challenges to the Environmental Protection Agency’s finding that manmade greenhouse gases threaten public health, and Senator Jay Rockefeller, a Democrat from the coal state of West Virginia, introduced a bill to postpone for two years EPA rules stemming from that determination. Republican senators have pointed to the errors as another reason to oppose a climate bill, spearheaded by Senator John F. Kerry, that would limit carbon dioxide emissions.
Even in Massachusetts, where environmentalism has long been good politics, GOP gubernatorial candidate Charlie Baker said recently when asked whether global warming was manmade: “I absolutely am not smart enough to believe I know the answer.’’
In 2007, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a United Nations scientific body considered the leading authority on global warming, concluded the widespread warming of the atmosphere and oceans and the melting of sea ice and glaciers could not be explained without taking into account manmade emissions of heat-trapping gases. The group said it was 90 percent certain that humans are the main reason for the world’s temperature rise in the past 50 years.
Well, we know that was ALL BS now!!!
Governmental scientific bodies around the world, including in the United States, have supported that conclusion, which was based on a review of decades of research by international scientists.
Authors of the report stand by its central findings, although some scientists involved with the UN panel say the errors have damaged the body’s reputation. Late last month, the United Nations environmental program announced that a group of scientists will independently review the 2007 report.
The errors largely center on the projected impact of climate change - predictions based on computer models that have a broad range of uncertainty.
And yet is is PRESENTED TO YOU as FACT despite your lying eyes, readers!!
And GOD HELP YOU if you QUESTION this ACCEPTED TRUTH, 'eh?
“This issue is so politically sensitive, scientists need to be careful they [focus] on the science and not advocacy. . . . The science is robust and can speak for itself,’’ said Adil Najam, a lead author of two Intergovernmental Panel assessments and director of Boston University’s Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future. He said the recent errors do not undermine the fact that man is significantly contributing to global warming, “but the review process needs to be strengthened’’ for future reports.
Which I will promptly throw in the garbage with the rest of their agenda-pushing work.
Recent polls by the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies and George Mason University show a decline in public concern about global warming, with 50 percent of respondents saying they are “somewhat’’ or “very worried’’ about global warming, a 13-point decrease from the fall of 2008. Sixteen percent are considered “dismissive’’ - believing that global warming isn’t happening and is probably a hoax - up from 7 percent in 2008.
That's because the TRUTH IS OUTING, BG, no matter how much crap you shovel!!!!
Meanwhile, a December ABC/Washington Post poll found 56 percent of those surveyed don’t trust the things scientists say about the environment - up from 49 percent a year and a half earlier.
NOT ANYMORE!!!!
However, it is unclear how much these shifts are related to “climategate,’’ the controversy surrounding stolen e-mails from climate scientists, which skeptics publicized late last year as evidence that global warming data are not credible. Climate scientists involved in the controversy say the e-mails were misinterpreted.
Just as that issue was subsiding, “glaciergate’’ emerged.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s report said Himalayan glaciers could disappear by 2035. The report attributed this conclusion to an advocacy group, and the group, it turns out, had picked this information up from a news story - hardly rigorous scientific methodology.

Yeah, ONE F***ING LIE after ANOTHER!!
The date was also apparently copied incorrectly from another source and should have read 2350. The errors went beyond sloppiness and were troubling to scientists because advocacy group reports, no matter how robust, can give the perception of bias and are often not peer-reviewed - meaning they have not been vetted by independent scientists, as are studies published in scientific journals.
Noooooo?
Next came “Amazongate.’’
Pffft!
Citing a World Wildlife Fund report, the Intergovernmental Panel said “up to 40 percent of the Amazonian forests could react drastically to even a slight reduction in precipitation’’ from global warming. The figure was correct, but it came from peer-reviewed work by a Woods Hole Research Center senior scientist, Daniel Nepstad. “There was a little sloppiness in the citation,’’ he said.
Then it was revealed that the panel had wrongly said that more than half of the Netherlands is below sea level. It is actually about 26 percent.
You know what happens when the trust is gone, readers?
You never really trust that person or institution again, do you?
And here we are.
A former chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel, Robert Watson, recently told The Times in Britain that if the mistakes in the report were due merely to chance, he would expect the errors to both over- and underestimate the impact of climate change. Yet the errors he has seen, he told the newspaper, overstated the problem, making him worry there is a bias toward warming among scientists.
Well, yeah, becau$e that is what certain agenda-pu$hing people want to hear.
“There is a general bias toward the proposition that there is a problem. Without the problem, almost all the funding would disappear,’’ Richard Lindzen of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a prominent skeptic of the projected impact of manmade global warming, said in an e-mail.
And HE IS RIGHT!
Somehow EVERYTHING always comes down to MONEY!!!
Climate policy observers say there are probably errors in the report that underestimate the problem, but they say skeptics hunt to uncover overstated issues.
As opposed to what they do?
You know, if you are going to HIDE the DECLINE the skeptics would have to UNCOVER things, wouldn't they?
The few errors, they say, are outweighed by a stack of scientific studies that show the world’s climate is changing and that people are almost certainly playing a significant role.
Yeah, BULLS*** STUDIES!
“There are no fatal flaws, but from a public credibility standpoint they are very damaging,’’ said Pat Parenteau, a professor at Vermont Law School.
Scientists say that climategate exposed a vitriolic divide between skeptics and climate scientists, and both sides need to be more respectful and hear each other out.
You know, I agree.
So WHY DO YOU KEEP LYING TO US, assholes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????
Also, the fact-checking and review of future reports needs to be more thorough. While it is considered an honor to be asked to be part of an Intergovernmental Panel report, it is a job - like most scientific reviewing of papers - that does not pay.
The political fallout may be even more telling.
Environmental policy specialists say the controversies, along with the struggling economy, could hurt Kerry’s effort to pass climate legislation.
We can only hope, huh?
Better filibuster the f*** out of that if you want Congress back, Repugs.

Kerry said recently that he is closing in on a bipartisan bill. He vowed to push forward, noting the issue is as much about jobs and national security as about the environment.
Pffft!
They do themselves no favors by hollering wolf every f***ing time!
“What we have to do is go on the offensive,’’ Kerry said. The science “has been maligned and misinterpreted, and we need to fight back . . . people [need to] stop being moved by these talk show [hosts] and start looking for the facts’’ themselves.
Well, HELLO, readers!!!!!

"Obama prods undecided to pass climate, energy bill
WASHINGTON - President Obama made a renewed push for a long-stalled climate and energy bill yesterday, urging lawmakers at a White House meeting to pass a comprehensive measure this year.
Fourteen senators from both parties, including several who remain undecided on the climate bill, met for more than an hour with Obama, four Cabinet members, and Carol Browner, White House energy adviser.
Robert Gibbs, White House spokesman, said Obama wants a comprehensive bill that includes a cap on emissions of pollution blamed for global warming.
“The president’s strong belief is that in order to transition ourselves away from our dependence on foreign oil and into a clean-energy economy, that we need a strong incentive to do that,’’ Gibbs said.
A bill sponsored by Senators John F. Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts, Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, and Joe Lieberman, a Connecticut independent, aims to cut emissions of pollution-causing greenhouse gases by 17 percent by 2020. The bill would abandon a broad “cap-and-trade’’ approach to reducing carbon pollution. Instead it would apply different carbon controls to different sectors of the economy.
Get ready to DROP THOSE PANTS and SPREAD THOSE CHEEKS, Americans!
Let's face it, NOTHING this government does is FOR YOU or for the GOOD!!!
Is that what ALL the LIES are for, our own good?
Kerry called the meeting “terrific’’ and said Obama “made it very, very clear that he believes it is critical to have a price on carbon,’’ a move that some Republicans and business groups oppose because it would raise the price of oil and coal.
Say HELLO to your VERY OWN FART TAX, 'murka!!
How long until a fart meter is inserted up your ass?
Of course, OBAMA can FLY ALL OVER the place POLITICKING on YOUR DIME, taxpayers, and THAT is NOT a PROBLEM!!
You SMELLING SOMETHING like me, readers?
Kerry said lawmakers were “moving very rapidly’’ to draft a bill that could be on the Senate floor this spring.
Kerry and other lawmakers are looking at cutting the nation’s output of heat-trapping greenhouse gases by targeting, in separate ways, three major sources of emissions: electric utilities, transportation, and industry.
Power plants would face an overall cap on emissions that would become more stringent over time. Motor fuel may be subject to a carbon tax whose proceeds could help electrify the US transportation sector.
Yup, you will PAY IT at the PUMP, Americans!
You know the drill, readers....
1. Pull up to pump
2. Get out of car
3. Drop pants
4. Insert gas pump into ass
And industrial facilities would be exempted from a cap on emissions for several years before it is phased in.
Of course, the military is completely exempt and they are the largest polluter on the face of the planet.
You going to SHUT DOWN the WAR MACHINE, 'bomber?
Of course, how can you doubt what the newspaper says, huh?
"Believe it or not, winter was warm" by Associated Press | March 27, 2010
Yeah, DON'T BELIEVE YOUR LYING SENSES, world!
Believe BULLSHIT that the MSM shovels in front of your face instead!
WASHINGTON — It will probably come as a surprise to most Americans, but the winter just finished was the fifth-warmest on record, worldwide.
F***ing shameless and insulting.
Sure, nearly two-thirds of the country can dispute that from personal experience of a colder-than-normal season.
And that is interesting because you HAVE TWO CHOICES!
A: The agenda-pusher reaching into your wallet is a liar.
B: You are crazy
I know which side most people come down on, and so do I.
But while much of the United States was colder than usual, December-February — climatological winter — continued the long string of unusual warmth on a global basis.
F*** YOU and f***ing lies, MSM!!
And parts of the United States did join in, with warmer-than-normal readings for the season in New England and the Pacific Northwest.
Now, the SNOW LET UP this year! It was STILL DAMN COLD!
Indeed, Maine had its third-warmest winter on record, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reports....
Oh, NOAA reported that, huh?
Related: NOAA CAUGHT FUDGING THE CLIMATE DATA

Contributing to the warmth was an El Niño, a periodic warming of water in the tropical Pacific Ocean, which can influence weather over large areas.
Oh, it all could be El Nino, huh? A natural effect.
However, worldwide temperatures have also been climbing in recent years, a warming attributed by most atmospheric scientists to chemicals added to the air by human activities since the start of the Industrial Revolution.
Yup, WHATEVER, MSM, whatever!

"British inquiry vindicates scientists in scandal over climate data" by Raphael G. Satter, Associated Press | March 31, 2010
LONDON — The first of several British investigations into the e-mails leaked from one of the world’s leading climate research centers has largely vindicated the scientists involved.
At least they got that part right.
The House of Commons’ Science and Technology Committee said yesterday that it had seen no evidence to support charges that the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit or its director, Phil Jones, had tampered with data or perverted the peer review process to exaggerate the threat of global warming — two of the most serious criticisms levied against the climatologist and his colleagues.
Were they looking for it?
In their report, the committee said that, as far as it was able to ascertain, “the scientific reputation of Professor Jones and CRU remains intact,’’ adding that nothing in the more than 1,000 stolen e-mails, or the controversy kicked up by their publication, challenged scientific consensus that “global warming is happening and that it is induced by human activity.’’
Then why don't you do us all a favor and step off.
That will be less gas bags warming the planet!
The 14-member committee’s investigation is one of three launched after the dissemination, in November, of e-mails and data stolen from the research unit.
Yeah, they can't stick to the truth, can they?
The e-mails appeared to show scientists berating skeptics in sometimes intensely personal attacks, discussing ways to shield their data from public records laws, and discussing ways to keep skeptics’ research out of peer-reviewed journals.
Yup, but they are just looking for the truth!!
One that attracted particular media attention was Jones’s reference to a “trick’’ that could be used to “hide the decline’’ of temperatures.
Yeah, and?
The e-mails’ publication ahead of the Copenhagen climate change summit sparked an online furor, with skeptics of man-made climate change calling the e-mails’ publication “Climategate’’ and claiming them as proof that the science behind global warming had been exaggerated — or even made up altogether.
Yeah, a FUROR the MSM has pretty much IGNORED as it continues to shovel agenda-pushing s***!
Well, if the hockey stick fits, shove it up your ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The lawmakers said they decided to investigate due to “the serious implications for UK science.’’
Phil Willis, the committee’s chairman, said of the e-mails that “there’s no denying that some of them were pretty appalling.’’
But the committee found no evidence of anything beyond “a blunt refusal to share data,’’ adding that the idea that Jones was part of a conspiracy to hide evidence that weakened the case for global warming was clearly wrong.
Of course not.
They are NOT LOOKING FOR ONE and if they do find one ARE LOOKING to COVER IT UP!!
ClimateGate's 9/11 Commission!!!!
In a briefing to journalists ahead of the report’s release, Willis said the controversy would ultimately help buttress the case for global warming by forcing the University East Anglia — and other research institutions — to stop hoarding their data.
Why would DO-GOODER$ who ONLY MEAN the BE$T for U$ be HOARDING RE$EARCH and be FORCED to $HOW IT?
“The winner in the end will be climate science itself,’’ he said....
PFFFFFFFFFTT!!!

"In the Lam(e)ass Media today we find the headline saying that Climate Data was not manipulated. The British had an inquiry which, “largely cleared the scientists”. Here’s my favorite quote from the article- “One that attracted particular media attention was Jones' reference to a "trick" that could be used to "hide the decline" of temperatures.”Hide the decline" was not an attempt to conceal data but was scientific shorthand for discarding erroneous data, the committee concluded. Similarly, Jones intended "trick" to mean a neat way of handling evidence, rather than anything underhanded, the inquiry found.” Isn’t that special?"

Plastics can soak up harmful chemicals that fish and seabirds can eat and accumulate. And sometimes, humans eat the contaminated fish.
