UPDATE: We updated this article to address concerns after a reader cited research and recommendations by the fact-checking organization Climate Feedback.
Climate Feedback presented their analysis of our source article, including academic publications by several of its contributors. They concluded the article contained misleading and unsupported details:
Key Take Away
Temperature measurements made with different instruments and methods over time must necessarily be adjusted to ensure high-quality records of temperature that reliably represent changes. The adjustments needed for land stations in the United States often increase the apparent long-term warming, but overall, adjustments actually reduce the global warming trend.
What does an organization do when the real numbers don’t support the agenda they are pushing?
Sometimes they fudge the numbers. Cherry pick what helps prop up the lie and ignore the real facts.
This happens so often that The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has been doing just that in order to support their biggest science scandal: global warming. Selling their brand of science, their “truth” about global warming brings in extra funding, yet their data is off by 50%.
For the past 18 years, satellites have shown no global warming, where as the “the land based data sets like the ones maintained by NOAA for the US Historical Climate Network (USHCN) continue to show a warming trend.” How can this be?
One explanation, by meteorologist Anthony Watts, shows NOAA using readings from areas that experience Urban Heat Island effect, that is instruments surrounded by buildings, roads or airports nearby which raises the temperatures due to local “environment” and not climate or weather.

In. The book of Genesis, GOD TOLD US THEY WOULD ALWAYS BE HOT AND COLD, Winter and Summer!
SO WHAT ELSE IS NEW ??? Only the over educated (great reason NOT to send your kids to college, let them learn a trade) liars who hunger for money under the table swear by this global warming c**p….just like they swore over the Kenyan. Seems wealth and college equals cunning brain dead. ;(
I hate to be contentious here, but I must respectfully tell you that you are wrong. Global warming is very real. Around 10,000 years ago starting about 200 miles north of where I live, the North American continent was coveted by an ice sheet nearly a half mile thick. If global warming want a very real thing, that ice sheet would still be here, right? But it’s not, so we clearly have a warmer planet now than at the time of the ice sheet. However, if you add one simple word, I would totally agree with you. That word is man-made. Sooo, to make an accurate statement, you should say “man-made global warming is not real.” Then, you would be absolutely correct.
As well as recouping their money they’ve invested and lost! Of course WE THE PEOPLE have to pay with our taxes!!
Now those are some fudged numbers!
More Obama scandal.
Liberal Media will ignore their pants on fire!
Plus if you listen to the people of Alaska they will also say that the Polar Bear population is on the rise and not in decline.
Al Gore and his wealth have went from just over a million $ when he left the White House to over $125 million today……….. This was his only reason for pushing Global warming, Plus agenda 21. Where is his so called Christian wife ???? and i wonder how much she has been paid to be silent
OMG Green house gas from California is causing all of this weather and can you imagine the carbon tax bill they will receive? Next we will ban all gas wells in California like we did after like we banned all drilling in the Gulf of Mexico because of Deep water Horizon oil spill,,,, I smell something
