The Washington Post said the BEST study had
‘settled the climate change debate’ and showed that anyone who remained
a sceptic was committing a ‘cynical fraud’.
Today The Mail on Sunday can reveal that a leading member of Prof
Muller’s team has accused him of trying to mislead the public by
hiding the fact that BEST’s research shows global warming has stopped.
Prof Judith Curry, who chairs the Department of Earth and Atmospheric
Sciences at America’s prestigious Georgia Institute of Technology, said
that Prof Muller’s claim that he has proven global warming sceptics
wrong was also a ‘huge mistake’, with no scientific basis.
Prof Curry is a distinguished climate researcher with more than 30
years experience and the second named co-author of the BEST project’s
four research papers.
Her comments, in an exclusive interview with The Mail on Sunday, seem
certain to ignite a furious academic row. She said this affair
had to be compared to the notorious ‘Climategate’ scandal two
years ago. [full story]

"No Gores beheaded..." Tis such a shame. As the left says "Waste no opportunity."

Yannow, I was thinking about AGW on the way to work this ay-em, and I concluded that there is no way in heck it could be science. There is no control planet.
ReplyDeleteWe can look at the geological information about changing climate, and we can see changes over a long period of time. We can talk about the changes before the appearance of man and the consumption of coal and petroleum. But we have absolutely NO WAY of determining if that has had any effect on the climate, because we have no unpopulated, quantum-linked duplicate earth to compare ours with.
Because of this lack of a control planet, we can never know for sure what, if any, effect humanity is having on the planet's weather system and it's history.
Ergo, AGW ain't science, and never can be science.
We have a control planet. Mars.
ReplyDeleteThe icecaps there show exactly the same rate of warming as here.
When you hear the phrase, "The science is settled," it ain't science.
ReplyDeleteScience is never settled.
