Ex-NOAA scientist now 'climate-change denier'

Censoring evidence, “fiddling” with data and silencing skeptics were part of life at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, according to a former NOAA scientist who no longer believes carbon dioxide is

Rex Fleming admitted that while he worked for NOAA, he attributed global warming to carbon dioxide despite “having doubts.”

“Eventually I just read enough to realize it’s a totally wrong direction,” he said in a podcast interview July 25 with British journalist James Delingpole.

“And so, in the past 10 years, I’d say, I’ve been on the other side.”

His conversion, however, has shut him out of academic journals, despite his Ph.D. in atmospheric science.

The author of “The Rise and Fall of the Carbon Dioxide Theory of Climate Change,” he told Delingpole he had to travel to Europe to have his 2018 paper on climate change peer-reviewed and published.

“The ‘deniers’ have so much evidence,” he said, while the global-warming believers “bring nothing to the table of scientific proof.”

Always be suspicious of those who try to shut down the debate on an issue


Agreed. They jumped the gun on “it’s a scientific consensus” IMO.

The “A” in AGW is part cult, part political tactic to increase governance (global governance in particular) and part shakedown.

The cult is on the street. In Paris, home of the "climate accord" where Macron & Co. is already fully vested to control climate with his hand-picked von der Leyen at the head of the EU promising 55% reduction by 2040 and zero emissions by 2050 and the BBC reports they were "trying to draw government and media attention to climate change."

The left gave up on PEAK OIL because ‘oil’ wouldn’t go along with the scam.

Same thing will happen here...

Freak-out deadlines will keep passing and nothing will happen. After a while liberal shysters will have to come up with a new scam.

At this point, we've lost this one.

At this point, yes we have. But I still have hope. The fact that we are almost certainly in a fairly long term drop in worldwide temperature it will difficult to fudge the numbers like they have in the past.

And something that has been (almost) unreported: CO2 is good for plants and agriculture. I read that this effect is real and measurable. The planet we live on is getting greener. That should be a good thing. The farmers love it. The MSM hates it. That should tell you all you need to know about these scam artists.

There is a reason liberalism, at its core, demands monologue/forbids dialogue, viz. they absolutely cannot defend their insane platforms.

Plus, they are not in the fight just to win the argument. They are in the fight to achieve absolute power. Debate and truth are lethal threats to their absolute power; hence, debate and dissenters cannot be permitted. America, cherish and hold tight to our heritage of free speech.

“Denier” as if in denial of a proven fact.

“Hoax exposer” is more accurate.

Except that in comparison, evolutionists are politically benign.

evolutions = atheists = democrat socialists = not benign.

There seems to be an extra-solar component.

In prehistoric times CO2 was times of what it is now and life flourished.

Umm, the teachings of evolution led directly to dispensing with public morality and the religious underpinnings of society, the rise of Marxism, Fascism, moral relativism, abortion and sexual deviancy...

I’m fine you see it that way. Today governments are hell-bent scheming to use climate.
