Michael Mann, scientist: Data ‘increasingly unnecessary’ because ‘we can see climate change’
The Washington Times ^ | Monday, June 27, 2016 | Valerie Richardson

Posted on 06/29/2016 6:58:36 AM PDT by GT Vander

Leading climate doomsayer Michael Mann recently downplayed the importance of climate change science, telling Democrats that data and models “increasingly are unnecessary” because the impact is obvious.

“Fundamentally, I’m a climate scientist and have spent much of my career with my head buried in climate-model output and observational climate data trying to tease out the signal of human-caused climate change,” Mr. Mann told the Democratic Platform Drafting Committee at a hearing.

It seems that questions of the religion of AWG no longer require answering.

Who needs “data” when we’re talking religion?

Mann wants to ignore the data because the data doesn’t support his nonsense.

I remember the emails that uncovered the despicable behavior of this zealot colluding with other zealots to suppress contradictory science and debate. As a researcher myself I sent an email to PSU regarding that revelation and urging them to bring this charlatan to account.

The reply from their PAO began with the line “Dear Citizen of the Globe.” I knew then and there I’d never hire a PSU graduate. Never did.

They shouldn’t require anymore funding.

I saw a video once of Elvis singing with Martina McBride. Proof that Elvis isn’t dead. Works for me.

That’s absolutely right.

Five months ago it was 30 degrees cooler than it is today. Yesterday it rained and today is sunny.

Yep - climate change is here for sure!

IMO, he’s an ideological zealot who has whored out his scholarship for easy government grants and funding. Further, his scholarship was neither impressive, nor scholarly, IMO.

All I see is weather.

How is this different from the ‘70s? Or the ‘80s? Maybe I’m just remembering wrong.

...

And by “teasing” he means falsifying.

Wow! The data doesn’t pan out so lets use politics and emotion instead. Pure BS.

“Trying to tease out human-caused climate change”

Well there you go.

Sort of tells us what we need to know.

Observations work somewhat OK for weather if all you need to know is if it’s raining. But it doesn’t tell you why.

Even less so for “climate change”... Observations tell you nothing since climate change amounts to hundreds of thousands of weather reports strung back to back.

The guy’s an idiot.

Michael Mann, with UVA’s help, prevented his data from being disclosed. When you know your data is unreliable, fight to prevent it from being released.
