The saga of 10:10 - the folks who brought you Kill the children for
- 10:10, the video's creators, are losing their corporate sponsorships left and right.
- The 10:10 group was founded by Franny Armstrong to get people to reduce their Carbon emissions by 10% in 10 years (or something). It seems that Franny has a hankering for out-of-season blueberries. Flown on jets from Chile to the UK.
- Hitler doesn't understand why people don't think that the video is funny:
They even accuse me of being a Nazi. Heh.
The data is dodgy, episode MCLIV
Yeah, you've been hearing me complain about this forever, but Jo Nova has an outstanding series on this that you should read in full:
- Part 1: Thermometer siting problems.
- Part 2: Just how many thermometers are used? Which ones, and who decides?
- Part 3: Ocean Temperatures. Ocean water holds way more heat than air does, so ocean temperature is much more significant to climate than air temperature. What you'll read here about the sensor network will surprise you.
A while back I mentioned that a group in New Zealand claimed that the Kiwi.Gov weather bureau (the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, or NIWA)had been fudging the national climate data, and that the "raw" (unadjusted) data show no warming at all since 1850. Well the New Zealant Climate Science Coalition took NIWA to court over the matter, and NIWA seems to be running for the hills:
New Zealand’s government via its National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) has announced it has nothing to do with the country’s “official” climate record in what commentators are calling a capitulation from the tainted climate reconstruction.Stay tuned on this one. Transparency is the big problem in Climate Science, and the courts may have the ability to force some things out into the light of day.
NIWA’s statement claims they were never responsible for the national temperature record (NZTR).The climb down is seen as a dramatic legal triumph for skeptics of the New Zealand Climate Science Coalition (NZCSC) who had initiated their challenge last August when petitioning the high court of New Zealand to invalidate the weather service’s reconstruction of antipodean temperatures.
According to NZCSC, climate scientists cooked the books by using the same alleged ‘trick’ employed by British and American doomsaying scientists. This involves subtly imposing a warming bias during what is known as the ‘homogenisation’ process that occurs when climate data needs to be adjusted.
It's the Sun, stupid
Some people are saying that the sun is heating things up, when it seems strongly tied to cooling cycles (at least currently, but this has been known since 1801). I'll post on this later, as it has an interesting historical angle. Too bad most of the "Consensus" climate community are so profoundly ignorant of history. I guess it's easier to get computer models to tell you what you want.

For the record, I reduced my "carbon footprint" by at least 70% percent in the last decade, because I can't afford to live a life of waste like the well-compensated filmmakers of the Kill-for-Gaia trailer.
Hey Boreapatch, did you see this article by Adam Baldwin? He is right there with you.
