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

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.

The religion of Global Climate Change. Adherents need no evidence, simply faith.

Sceptics are heretics and should be burned at the stake, but that would cause more global warming so they are simply shunned and ostracized instead.

It is so real that he invented the “Fudge Factor”.

But only government officials and scientists getting government grants pretend to know the cause.

Ah. A good philosophical question.

Physical proof isn't the only kind of proof. For instance, there is no physical proof of the infinity of primes, though there is mathematical proof. Yet "the infinity of prime numbers" is not an un-scientific or anti-scientific proposition, and certainly not an unreasonable one.

I would argue that a rational faith (for instance, a faith that does not violate the law of non-contradiction) is absolutely different from a scientific fraud. MIchael Mann inflicts scientific fraud.

He knows this is the end of the El Nino “heat wave” and the global temperatures are going to drop big time. So now it is time to change the narrative.

Don’t you remember; in the 70’s we had the new ICE AGE.
Don’t tell me that you have already forgotten the glaciers on Sunset Blvd. in Hollyweird, or the Icebergs in San Francisco bay?
Don’t you remember that all the cold weather gear was bought up by the people in Barstow and Twentynine Palms in California.
Don’t you remember that we all died in the COLD and the DARK?
