BBC Resurrecting the Dead to Make Up Climate News

I watched the BBC News reports this afternoon with the 2 “experts” – one from that illustrious seat of scientific eminence and integrity: the UEA Clime Change Ministry of Truth!
She babbled on about the highest average temperature since records began, somewhere in the 1850’s. That was enough to make me fall over in laughing. In the 1850’s, and up to well into the mid/late 20th Century, all around the world, there were nothing like the present number of temperature recordings, the distribution of actual weather stations was very concentrated, largely in western Europe, there was no standard method of measurement or instrument location/enclosure, no agreed weighting adjustment factors for location, land/sea/altitude etc etc were available, heat island “adjustments” were not even thought about, and the accuracy and reliability of measurements taken had no universal standards. All this makes any forecast or trending of annual temperature increases of the 0.15 degree centrigrade per decade target set for a 2 degree temperature rise by 2100 totally fraudulent and massively discredited. It also fully identifies that the $trillions of consumers’ and taxpayers’ money already spent, allocated or planned a grotesque waste of unaffordable money for the whole world. Even then these green zeolots of the true religion and faiths still need to provide even a scientific basis and evidence of a CO2 rise/temperature rise correlation, let alone a causal link, or splitting and separating out the effects of natural and man-made CO2 emissions, or scientifically and consistently allowing for other man-made inputs which have generated CO2 increases such as de-forestration and massive waste heat from the massive increase in power and energy production other than fossil fuels including waste heat from all electrical appliances, and even the temperature increases from the 1950’s onwards generated by the western reductions in solar gloom due to the Clean Air Acts and Anti-Acid Rain massively reducing particulate carbon and sulphates and other aerosol gases – etc. etc. etc.
We all must feel like poor Galileo before the Inquisition: knowing full well that scientific observations and evidence fully identifies that, contrary to scripture, the Earth orbits the Sun and not vice versa, and yet the powers that be simply sit back and repudiate any such proof and depend simply on some long established conformity, ideology and Act of Faith!

Or they are building for a strike against Trump Policies by placing forth the IDEA that CO2 WAS Plateauing prior to his inaguration then informing the public that His policies are again driving up CO2. A short lie to back the “PROOF” behind the Great Lie

Missed a good deed and a great PR opportunity there in my view. He could have had that paid into a veterans charity.

On the plus side, Trump will take a tax deduction of his non-salary as a business expense and use federal fund to put a huge eliminated “Trump” sign on top of the White House. He will use the taxpayer funds to upgrade the White House as a rolling tax deduction for two generations of Trumps.
Just because Trump is better than Hillary, do not mistake that to mean that he is above reproach.

Jtom — are you serious? Of course I paid taxes. And I know that you are not supposed to deduct income that you don’t receive.
Either way — whether you like Trump or not, his tax situation is pretty dodgy. He lives like a billionaire, but pays taxes like a pauper.

It’s like many “climate change” studies. Not the ones based on thermodynamics, but the ones based on “cause and effect”. They start with the conclusion and then rework the problem statement until the conclusion is confirmed.
Adaptation is a good thing. We adapted to the elements by building homes. So did beavers — before humans were a figment of their imaginations.

For me, the presumption is even more careless. All warming is man-made and anything man-made is bad. They can literally study that carbon emissions cause malaria because there is still malaria in the tropics. Yet, malaria is down considerably over the past 100 years, particularly in the developed nations, because of access to medicines and insecticides spread by trucks and planes.
In other words, there is a total disconnect between cause & effect.
I read one study that concluded that deaths due to heat will rise in New York City by hundreds over the next century. One of the assumptions in the study is that air conditioning saved lives, but 87% of residents already have air conditioning so that figure is effectively maxed out for the city. I asked — couldn’t they just turn up their air conditioning (and doesn’t that mean we should ship air conditioners to the tropics?) “But, that would increase carbon emissions!”
