In 1981, Hansen reported high temperatures at the Northern Latitudes (23.6N – 90N) around 1940, followed by a strong cooling. But that didn’t support the theory, so NASA’s finest simply made the 1940’s blip disappear through repeated data tampering.

They climategate team didn’t like the 1940’s blip, so they disappeared it.

It would be good to remove at least part of the 1940s blip, but we are still left with “why the blip”.

After the announcement of hottest year ever, the reason given to ignore satellite temperatures was because “we don’t live in the troposphere.” Apparently we must be fish, because the land temperatures were not the hottest ever. And I am pretty sure that we do actually live in the troposphere.

But it is much worse than it seems. 58% of the land temperatures reported by NCDC for December were completely fake – as shown in the animation below which has ocean temperatures masked out.

The graph below shows the pixel counts of measured and published land temperatures. As you can see, the vast majority of fake pixels have positive anomalies. Their algorithms (which “work as designed”) skew fake data towards high temperatures..

The reported December land anomaly was 1.36C, but the…

Are climate models the best tools? A recent Ph.D. thesis from The Netherlands provides strong arguments for ‘no’.

Last summer, after the coldest winter and iciest spring on record on Lake Michigan, experts warned that global warming threatened Chicago

The city continues to suffer from global warming today.

In 1975, the National Academy of Sciences showed no net Northern Hemisphere warming from 1900 to 1970, and about 0.5C cooling from the 1930’s to 1970

But this didn’t make climategate scientists happy, because it wrecked their global warming theory, which their livelihood depends on.

So NCDC made the most of the 1930’s/194o’s warmth disappear.

 The next graph is an overlay of the 1975 NAS graph on the current NCDC graph, normalized to the most recent years.

They pulled their standard trick of cooling all pre-1963 temperatures.

The Greenland Ice Sheet is getting buried with snow again this year

The ice sheet has gained a near record 350 billion tons of snow since August

All of this excess snow has to go somewhere, so it flows as rivers of ice (glaciers) to the sea. Climate experts look at pictures of the glaciers falling into the sea, and cry about global warming. Because they are complete morons who don’t know the first thing about science.
