The Mann et al. "hockey stick" graph, first published in 1998, was rapidly embraced by the UN IPCC as worthy of consensus. It was reproduced in Figure 1 of the IPCC science working group's "Summary for Policymakers" (which IPCC released to the press during the Bush-Gore election campaign, some nine months before the full report was released). This article by Muller is a great explanation of just one of many errors identified by McIntyre & McKitrick. See http://www.uoguelph.ca/~rmckitri/research/trc.html for more info.

Is it true that Pamela Anderson is known as "The Global Warming Blonde Bombshell".

Sorry I am a recent visitor to your blue planet and have noticed that PETA and the Global Warming Gang are quite close.

"now the correct answer is that nobody really knows"


Finaly, an honest assessment of global warming.

I didn't know that this was a Jaqcues Derrida thread.

I'm so glad to see that the UN doesn't take the prospect of diminishing our liberties and imposing billions of dollars in costs lightly. I'm so glad they first pursued a strict scrutiny of the pivotal Mann data.

Right.

What is it going to take for us to realize that the UN is primarily a gang of thugs and looters, doing more harm than good?

It wasn't, but I'll pass on no opportunity to bash frogs.

How did this happen? Mann wanted it to happen. It funds his cause. And whatever increase in mean temperature over this period might have occurred, it WAS NOT caused by man.

The closest star burps and we on Earth have a warming trend. The closest star quiets and we here on Earth have cold winters that last too long. Seems to be built into the Designer's plan to me.

Here the 'hockey stick' diverges from the pattern of correlation between sunspot activity and Earth temperature.

I NEVER believed in "global warming". Thirty years ago the hue and cry was "global cooling".
