She replied: "No, actually, there has been cooling, if you take 1998 as your point of reference. If you take 2002 as your point of reference, then temperatures have plateaued. This is certainly not what you'd expect if carbon dioxide is driving temperature because carbon dioxide levels

A MUST READ.

Temperatures are dropping, a NASA satellite is proving the warming models wrong, and all the data is staring the “experts” in the face.

Once the hoax is exposed, the rats are going to scramble for cover. Not to worry, they have an out...blame it on the models.

From the link you provided: "For some time now Jennifer has believed that there is a need for a whole new environment movement, an evidence-based, solution-focused movement that values open discussion and debate."

Sounds like the type of scientist we NEED to counter all the AGW carp!
