Failed “Scientist” Paul Ehrlich Among AGW Alarmists Swiping at Skeptics

There’s a 2004 book by Victor Gold called Liberwocky: What Liberals Say and What They Really Mean. It’s a tongue-and-cheek (but not inaccurate) glossary of buzzwords used and abused by the liberati in all walks of life. E.g.,

“Obscene: Liberal pejorative applied to ‘outrageous’ corporate profits; not, however, applicable to pornographic magazines or motion pictures.”

I think it’s time for a sequel. Consider this piece at the Washington Times about certain climate alarmists scientists hitting back at skeptics in light of the past several months AGW scandals and errors: ….(Full Story)

Global Warming Conference Heats Up in May 2010

by Todd Wynn    Friday, March 5. 2010

CHICAGO, IL USA - What a difference a year makes! Last year at this time, global warming “skeptics” were dismissed as being a fringe group of dissenters from “the overwhelming consensus” of scientific opinion. Now, their critics are admitting that the science is far from settled and that global warming is not the crisis it was once made out to be….(Full Story)

The daily inundation through commercials and other advertisements in the media includes initiatives by policy makers as well as opportunistic consequences of policies. It is at times difficult to tell whether climate hype and hysteria feed on “commercial” insanity or whether the insane hysteria about climate change presented by policy makers is what drives the business interests who inflict insane commercials on the population.

Having grown up in and during Hitler’s regime, there is one thing I know, because I observed it first hand.  Hitler said in “Mein Kampf” that the implementation of absolute ideological domination depends on the extent to which a simplified propaganda message — tailored to the lowest common denominator of the capabilities of the most simplistic elements in the masses — saturizes the daily lives of the masses continuously and all pervasively.

Thanks to wattsupwiththat.com, here is a link to a prime example of the blurring of the line between intent and consequences of high-intensity propaganda:

The Superbowl “Green Police” commercial

That is “truth” in advertising? The truth shall set you free, but keep in mind that, when propaganda was only an art and not yet a science, Hitler said:

The function of propaganda is, for example, not to weigh and ponder the rights of different people, but exclusively to emphasize the one right which it has set out to argue for. Its task is not to make an objective study of the truth, in so far as it favors the enemy, and then set it before the masses with academic fairness; its task is to serve our own right, always and unflinchingly. (More)

—Hitler, Mein Kampf, Chapter VI

 It does not pay to buy in on artistic or “scientific” over-the-top propaganda efforts. It makes no difference whether they are used to promote totalitarian politics or intensified consumerism.

For over a month now, since the farcical conclusion of the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference, I have been silent, partly through family commitments abroad in the USA, but also because, in this noisy world, in ‘The Clamour Of The Times’, it is on occasion better to be quiet and contemplative, to observe rather than…

This is a recent study report that should be read by all who are concerned about the assertions that rising atmospheric CO2 levels are the cause of global warming.

Falsification Of The Atmospheric CO2 Greenhouse Effects Within The Frame Of Physics

Authors: Gerhard Gerlich, Ralf D. Tscheuschner

(Submitted on 8 Jul 2007 (v1), last revised 4 Mar 2009 (this version, v4))

Abstract: The atmospheric greenhouse effect, an idea that many authors trace back to the traditional works of Fourier (1824), Tyndall (1861), and Arrhenius (1896), and which is still supported in global climatology, essentially describes a fictitious mechanism, in which a planetary atmosphere acts as a heat pump driven by an environment that is radiatively interacting with but radiatively equilibrated to the atmospheric system. According to the second law of thermodynamics such a planetary machine can never exist. Nevertheless, in almost all texts of global climatology and in a widespread secondary literature it is taken for granted that such mechanism is real and stands on a firm scientific foundation. In this paper the popular conjecture is analyzed and the underlying physical principles are clarified. By showing that (a) there are no common physical laws between the warming phenomenon in glass houses and the fictitious atmospheric greenhouse effects, (b) there are no calculations to determine an average surface temperature of a planet, (c) the frequently mentioned difference of 33 degrees Celsius is a meaningless number calculated wrongly, (d) the formulas of cavity radiation are used inappropriately, (e) the assumption of a radiative balance is unphysical, (f) thermal conductivity and friction must not be set to zero, the atmospheric greenhouse conjecture is falsified.

So, given that some of the most prominent proponents of the constant inundation of climate alarmism we are being subjected to in the media have been shown to greatly exaggerate their constant barrage of propagandistic lies, let’s now concentrate on what really ails the world and all of humanity.

Global warming is not a problem.  The alarmism concerning it is a red herring that distracts from the real problems that kill tens of millions each year:

• The lack of the availability of clean water;
• The banning of insecticides for eradicating or controlling insects that are carriers of endemic, fatal diseases;
• The lack of sufficient food to keep deadly starvation at bay, and
• The lack of electricity for a quarter of the world population.

RELEASE : 10-017

NASA Research Finds Last Decade was Warmest on Record, 2009 One of Warmest Years

WASHINGTON — A new analysis of global surface temperatures by NASA scientists finds the past year was tied for the second warmest since 1880. In the Southern Hemisphere, 2009 was the warmest year on record….

Here is the full story, but you better don’t believe a word of it, and here are the reasons why not (from wattsupwiththat.com):

 For more information about why the GISS data isn’t much to be trusted, particularly at the northern latitudes, see this article

GHCN – GIStemp Interactions – The Bolivia Effect

GHCN – Up North, Blame Canada!, Comrade

I hope that NASA will stuff that in their pipe and smoke it.  However, until NASA and its GISS (Goddard Institute for Space Studies) stop cooking the books, references to GISS temperature records at the website of the Friends of Lamont County will point to the following note of caution:

….No one in his right mind will base any decisions about the future on tools that cannot determine with acceptable accuracy what the present is and the past was.

• Reality check: UAH (University of Alabama in Huntsville) monthly globally averaged lower atmospheric temperature variations since 1979 as measured by NOAA and NASA satellites.

Update 2009 12 11:

The GISS temperature record can no longer be trusted.

On or around about Nov. 14, 2009, GISS began to use a new global temperature data set that deleted temperature records relating to the late 19th and early 20th centuries.  Not only that, but the temperature data that remained in use were adjusted downward for dates preceding the year 2000 (increasingly downward the farther back in the temperature record they go), thereby creating or exaggerating “warming” trends for individual locations.

A discussion thread at http://wattsupwiththat.com details the nature of the data fiddling.

From that discussion thread:

…See under “What’s New”:
http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs/

“Nov. 14, 2009: USHCN_V2 is now used rather than the older version 1. The only visible effect is a slight increase of the US trend after year 2000 due to the fact that NOAA extended the TOBS and other adjustment to those years.
Sep. 11, 2009: NOAA NCDC provided an updated file on Sept. 9 of the GHCN data used in our analysis. The new file has increased data quality checks in the tropics. Beginning Sept. 11 the GISS analysis uses the new NOAA data set. ”

The “visible effect” of the new, manipulated data set is far greater than the quoted note implies.  The data changes were without a doubt manufactured to create a warming trend where none exists or to exaggerate possibly existing warming trends.

This is not the first time that the gate keepers of climate data were caught in the act of large-scale falsifying of existing data.

Such is the state of the art of the GISS temperature record in relation to any claims about global warming: you are better off not to believe a word of it.
