GISS uses an insidious trick to hide their data tampering. They cool pre-1963 years, and warm post-1963 years. This makes their data tampering look much less severe than it actually is. A better visualization is to normalize the graphs to the most recent common data, and show the total magnitude of the tampering. The animation below shows that.

The White House wants global warming propaganda, and Gavin delivers! He just declared a record year by 0.02 degrees, but forgot to mention that they altered the data by seven times that much – just since 2008.

The graph below shows changes to NASA land-ocean temperature, since 2008. The years from 1910 to 1965 have been cooled, and subsequent years have been warmed. This creates a completely fake warming, and a record temperature with an error much larger than the claimed record delta.

This is on top of all of the other massive tampering they did in prior years.

There isn’t one shred of credibility to the claim of a record temperature.

Chris Huhne and the renewables industry have long been playing the nothing to see here game whenever there is a wind turbine collapse, fire or accident.

By their own admission the renewables industry is very cagey about the sacred bird chopper, the recent disintegration of a wind turbine in a mere 50 mph wind earlier this month highlighted the problem that these useless blots on the landscape have, their gearboxes and lubricant are not fit for purpose.

One nation, the Dutch who really know about windmills have abandoned wind power for all the usual reasons expense and reliability, yet in Britain the madness of Chris Huhne continues unabated with plans for 30,000 additional bird choppers costing £2 million each, a total cost of £60,000,000,000 that will require 100% backup from existing power stations using fossil fuels.

£60 billion for something that works at just 25% efficiency, it gets…

In response to the Globe South’s question “Should the Baker administration support wind energy?” Joanne Levesque argued that

Our state’s energy policy should never sacrifice the rights of private property owners or promote public harm. Current support for wind power projects is premised on allowing harm to our neighbors. Violation of the law is not how a civil society should adopt solutions to climate-change challenges.

A resident of Duxbury, Levesque serves on the Wind Advisory Committee. She urged the Baker administration to

immediately do what 44 Massachusetts cities and towns have done in the past 10 years — that is to deny the construction of new land-based wind projects. The new administration should also do what Falmouth has been forced to do by a Barnstable Superior Court judge who ruled on the evidence: reduce the operational hours of existing turbines to protect their neighbors from further harm.

The pro/con…
