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.

Another gov. Agency’s betrayal of we the people . Why do we sit and watch ?
Fairly old story and They fudged them big time. Your right there is no global warming!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another group that needs to be shut down to save $! All about tryin to put more fear in people to control them
I bet the Whitehouse,state department,all the others are cooked to,democrats
Most people know its just a government lie for a money grab from taxpayers. Liberals can lie the bloomers off a dead man and they’ll believe it.
Evidently you read the same good book I did. 🙂
David Suzuki one of if not the most outspoken person who insists on global warmings existance was silenced on a tv show with hard nose journalistic research based on facts! No discernable difference since 1998 regarding global warming!
Figures don’t lie, but liars figure
Interesting
It’s a lie
Not even a good lie
Remember science class in school
Once upon a time a giant meteor struck the earth causing millions of tons of dust and debris to be hurled into the atmosphere, blocking the sunlight from the earth causing the earth to freeze and ice hundreds of feet thick forming on the surface of the earth!
Killing most if not all life on the planet earth!
Slowly the dust and debris settled allowing the heat of the sun to reach the surface of the earth again and slowly melting the ice and warming the planet earth!
Well, if all this is scientific fact, and the scientists swear it is, then the earth has been continuously warming ever since!
And the planet earth will continue to warm until it reaches the temperature of the earth before the great freeze!
So then
The question the scientists need to be asked
And the question the scientists need to answer is
What was the temperature of the earth before the great freeze?
I’ll patiently await your answer mr al gore!
