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.

These left wing wackos will do anything to advance the false narrative of the climate change agenda.
Why do these people feel they have to lie.
More hoax science for the purpose of imposing taxes for corrupt officials to line their pockets.
How about paying the people back
Not surprising
What a crock of$#%&!@*# like everything else with this administration! Bout time someone jap- slapped that idiot down
I appreciate articles like this but why in heck does this one not have a date on it?? It’s basic journalism to put a date on articles so the readers can put it into perspective.
Nothing is as it seems, hmmm

NOAA gets busted with everything. NOAA/NWS is the worst and I do mean the WORST forecast service to ever hit. Is it a surprise government screws with numbers? They did this with sugar/fat foods in the 80s to make people eat more of it … and also with cheese!
