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.

If Obama leaves office I am sure there will be many millions of reasons he is pushing this lie. Like Al Gore, Obama will command millions and millions of dollors. It is all about controling you and me through the UN. And if the #’s don’t add up what do you do? Just lie.
Is this a satire site? If you’re reading the article and believing it , please don’t vote.
In Canada, the previous administration simply made the facts disappear with the closure of science libraries and muzzling of scientists.
No that’s not true the government was giving him so much money. Of course they’re cooking the books they would lose all their money from the government and my tax dollars that goes to that b*******
If your wealthy enough to own multiple homes like this,you wont have to sacrifice your air-conditioning if you dont want to.
We all no global warming is a scam just to get more money and take away more of our rights!!!!
So done with the “deniers”.
Join the rest of the world and get your head out!

Here is some news for you global warming tree huggers!
They have been doing that for forty years..
al gore came up with global warming, it has always been global climate change. and yes I have, I studied environmental biology. and yes it has changed, but not at the rate it is now. so please, someone answer my original question from the original comment. can we do all of those destructive things with no adverse effects?
