Långt och bra om AGW

Här är en lika lång som bra artikel om Climategate, dess effekter och vad som nu troligen väntar runt hörnet. För sammanbrottet har bara börjat. Författaren konstaterar bland annat att:

The next wave of climate revisionism is likely to reopen most of the central questions of “settled science” in the IPCC’s Working Group I, starting with the data purporting to prove how much the Earth has warmed over the last century. A London Times headline last month summarizes the shocking revision currently underway: “World May Not Be Warming, Scientists Say.” The Climategate emails and documents revealed the disarray in the surface temperature records the IPCC relies upon to validate its claim of 0.8 degrees Celsius of human-caused warming, prompting a flood of renewed focus on the veracity and handling of surface temperature data. Skeptics such as Anthony Watts, Joseph D’Aleo, and Stephen McIntyre have been pointing out the defects in the surface temperature record for years, but the media and the IPCC ignored them. Watts and D’Aleo have painstakingly documented (and in many cases photographed) the huge number of temperature stations that have been relocated, corrupted by the “urban heat island effect,” or placed too close to heat sources such as air conditioning compressors, airports, buildings, or paved surfaces, as well as surface temperature series that are conveniently left out of the IPCC reconstructions and undercut the IPCC’s simplistic story of rising temperatures. The compilation and statistical treatment of global temperature records is hugely complex, but the skeptics such as Watts and D’Aleo offer compelling critiques showing that most of the reported warming disappears if different sets of temperature records are included, or if compromised station records are excluded.

För den som jag som är gammal nog att minnas kommunismens fall och marxismens bankrutt 1989-91 känns tecknen på en total paradigmkolaps lätt igen! :-D

Tillägg: Här är ytterligare en intressant text med direkt bäring på klimateriets kolaps!

Tillägg II: I USA har AGW-hypotesens trovärdighet urholkats så till den milda grad att ett antal sentorer nu försöker få igenom en s k cap-and-trade-bill under falsk flagg: "What we are talking about is a jobs bill. It is not a climate bill. It is a jobs bill, and it is a clean air bill. It is a national security, energy independence bill," (John Kerry) told reporters in the Capitol this week." Tänk vad tiderna kan förändras på bara ett halvår... :-D

Tillägg III: Här är (ytterligare) krav på att IPCC läggs ner...
