Exposed: How world leaders were duped into investing billions over manipulated global warming data (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4192182/World-leaders-duped-manipulated-global-warming-data.html)

A high-level whistleblower has told this newspaper that America’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) breached its own rules on scientific integrity when it published the sensational but flawed report, aimed at making the maximum possible impact on world leaders including Barack Obama and David Cameron at the UN climate conference in Paris in 2015.


The report claimed that the ‘pause’ or ‘slowdown’ in global warming in the period since 1998 – revealed by UN scientists in 2013 – never existed, and that world temperatures had been rising faster than scientists expected. Launched by NOAA with a public relations fanfare, it was splashed across the world’s media, and cited repeatedly by politicians and policy makers.


But the whistleblower, Dr John Bates, a top NOAA scientist with an impeccable reputation, has shown The Mail on Sunday irrefutable evidence that the paper was based on misleading, ‘unverified’ data.

...The sea dataset used by Thomas Karl and his colleagues – known as Extended Reconstructed Sea Surface Temperatures version 4, or ERSSTv4, tripled the warming trend over the sea during the years 2000 to 2014 from just 0.036C per decade – as stated in version 3 – to 0.099C per decade. Individual measurements in some parts of the globe had increased by about 0.1C and this resulted in the dramatic increase of the overall global trend published by the Pausebuster paper. But Dr Bates said this increase in temperatures was achieved by dubious means. Its key error was an upwards ‘adjustment’ of readings from fixed and floating buoys, which are generally reliable, to bring them into line with readings from a much more doubtful source – water taken in by ships. This, Dr Bates explained, has long been known to be questionable: ships are themselves sources of heat, readings will vary from ship to ship, and the depth of water intake will vary according to how heavily a ship is laden – so affecting temperature readings.


Dr Bates said: ‘They had good data from buoys. And they threw it out and “corrected” it by using the bad data from ships. You never change good data to agree with bad, but that’s what they did – so as to make it look as if the sea was warmer.’...

...NOAA not only failed, but it effectively mounted a cover-up when challenged over its data. After the paper was published, the US House of Representatives Science Committee launched an inquiry into its Pausebuster claims. NOAA refused to comply with subpoenas demanding internal emails from the committee chairman, the Texas Republican Lamar Smith, and falsely claimed that no one had raised concerns about the paper internally.

I was looking at this report myself, as well as the supplemental data. My first observations is that a lot of the data is buried and mixed together so it is difficult to see each data source for itself. I did not get much further than that.

This is pretty big. Remember, everyone admitted that there has been no warming since 1998, then suddenly a paper is released saying that actually, the temperature measurements done in the sea were wrong and that after correcting, in fact the warming has continued. Well it is looking like the "corrections" were a fraud; thus warming has potentially not continued.

the science IS settled. it's total bull. one would think that the globalist warming dupes would be delighted, no? their great fear turns out to be a false alarm.

but that's not the case. they've dug in and fight to protect the lie. the dimocrap mssg board i jack with are die hard globalist warmers no matter how much the lie gets destroyed and the real agenda revealed

A report from last year, but another example of politicians and public servants (modern Stasi) pressuring tech companies to censor citizens who question their error and lies.

house.gov: Chair Castor Urges Google To Stop Spread of Climate Misinformation on YouTube (https://climatecrisis.house.gov/news/press-releases/chair-castor-urges-google-stop-spread-climate-misinformation-youtube)

January 27, 2020
On Monday, Rep. Kathy Castor (D-FL), chair of the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis, called on [wrote a letter (https://climatecrisis.house.gov/sites/climatecrisis.house.gov/files/SCCCLetterYouTube.pdf) (pdf)] Google to take urgent steps to stop the spread of dangerous climate denial and climate misinformation videos on YouTube, the most used social platform in the United States and a Google-owned subsidiary.

Dear Mr. Pichai,
In my correspondence to you last October, I urged you to end Google’s investments in groups that are actively blocking progress on climate action and that are promoting climate denial...

In the past, YouTube has been proactive about responding to the threats posed by harmful misinformation shared on its platform. Just last year, for example, YouTube removed economic incentives for channels that promoted anti-vaccination views, arguing that such content violated YouTube’s rules against monetizing videos with “dangerous and harmful” content...

As Chair of the Select Committee on the Climate Crisis, I’m committed to promoting ambitious federal policy that will help us solve one of the biggest challenges facing our planet. I also recognize the need to partner with members of the private sector, including Google, to take impactful action that will accelerate progress as we make sure the United States meets its climate goals. As we all work together to solve this crisis, we must also eliminate barriers to action, including those as pervasive and harmful as climate denial and climate misinformation.

That’s why I urge you to ensure that YouTube is not incentivizing climate misinformation content on its platform, or effectively giving free advertising to those who seek to protect polluters and their profits at the expense of the American people.

Specifically, YouTube can address these issues by taking the following steps:


Stop promoting climate denial and climate disinformation videos by removing them immediately from the platform’s recommendation algorithm;
Add ‘climate misinformation’ to the platform’s list of borderline content;
Stop monetizing videos that promote harmful misinformation and falsehoods about the causes and effects of the climate crisis;
Take steps to correct the record for millions of users who have been exposed to climate misinformation on YouTube.

Please respond by Friday, February 7, to describe any efforts you plan to take in order to address these important issues.

...The CCDH has published a hit list naming me as one of the top 12 individuals responsible for 65% of vaccine disinformation on social media, and who therefore must be deplatformed and silenced for the public good. In a March 24, 2021, letter1 to the CEO’s of Twitter and Facebook, 12 state attorneys general called for the removal of our accounts from these platforms, based on the CCDH’s report.
