How Wikipedia’s green doctor rewrote 5,428 climate articles

... Connolley took control of all things climate in the most used information source the world has ever known – Wikipedia. Starting in February 2003, just when opposition to the claims of the band members were beginning to gel, Connolley set to work on the Wikipedia site. He rewrote Wikipedia’s articles on global warming, on the greenhouse effect, on the instrumental temperature record, on the urban heat island, on climate models, on global cooling. On Feb. 14, he began to erase the Little Ice Age; on Aug.11, the Medieval Warm Period.

This is a curious article; I have seen writeups in Wikipedia on both the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age for several years.

The “warmers” know no bounds. They are corrupt, indecent and self-centered. They must be purged from any influence r power. Feh! Pox on their houses. Resist! Resist! Resist!

The wiki page on the global warming subject does NOT include the story regarding the leaked emails!

no bias at all.

>>This is a curious article; I have seen writeups in Wikipedia on both the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age for several years.<<

Solomon overstated the case just a bit (and only a bit) when he said in the article that the Medieval Warming Period (MWP) disappeared. What Connolley did was edit the article so that it relied primarily on researchers who claimed to “prove” that the MWP wasn’t a world-wide phenomenon, i.e., that it only affected small parts of the world at one time and therefore the world’s average temperature wasn’t elevated significantly. They needed to somehow assert (prove?) this for the hockey stick presentation to hold water.

If you read the article on the MWM in Wikipedia fairly closely, you’ll see that’s what he managed to do. It became a regional phenomenon. I suspect that this was news to researchers world-wide who’d been studying it for years and years, but it illustrates the true extent of the power that the global warming cabal wielded as little as a year ago. Fortunately, it’s all comin’ tumblin’ down.

It was a great bit of reporting by Solomon. We need a lot more digging like this to root out all the global warming alarmists’ corruption. He didn’t credit anyone for providing him the information either; I wonder if he figured it out on his own?

MWP is still showing the fraudulent East Anglia temperature graph showing it is hotter now and going straight up.

OUTSTANDING — AND HIGHLY “INCONVENIENT” — 8 MINUTE PRESENTATION BY DR. JOHN COLEMAN (FOUNDER OF THE WEATHER CHANNEL) UTTERLY DEMOLISHING ALGORE’S GLOBULL WARMING SCAM.

As you’ve heard here before, this is NOT about saving the planet. It’s about POWER, MONEY and CONTROL. If you think Gore hiked his net worth from a few million to an estimated 100 million since leaving the VP slot with his brilliant public speaking style, I have some coastal property in Nevada I’d like to show you.

With the alleged fall of communism, the global elites needed another planetary boogeyman with which to keep the rest of us frightened and submissive. Globull warming and saving the planet got the nod.
(And communism didn’t fall, it simply moved — to America!)

If you’re STILL not sure what to think about the subject, the SCIENTIFIC FACTS presented here should clear it up.

PLEASE SHARE THIS WIDELY. If the Obama Democrats and the RINOs saddle what’s left of the American economy with their so-called CAP and TRADE, better avoid the rush and get that government job application ready to go because there won’t BE any private sector jobs, green, brown, red, blue or any other color. Gee, could that be a major part of the plan??

WE INHALE CO2 AND EXHALE THE O2 YOU NEED. PLEASE SAVE US. DON’T LET US SUFFOCATE.

Thank you.

THE PLANTS OF THE EARTH.

Question anyone touting the warming scam. Chances are, they are lying lowlifes. Some are simply ignorant, or too embarrassed to stand up against the criminally corrupt, libtard establishment. Question authority.

According to wikipedia, looks like Connolley also worked on the HadCM3 model at Hadley - go figure.

Also a Green Party candidate in the UK from 2001-2005.

He authored several revisionist articles/”literature reviews” claiming that the majority of scientific papers in the 70s “actually predicted warming, not cooling.

He clearly has an agenda!

I hope that some of the knowledgeable scientists methodically go through the wiki entries and clean them up...
