Mike “Mish” Shedlock from Money Maven describes it as alarmist data, meaning it’s cherry picked by climate fanatics to support their mass hysteria rather than the truth – and most scientists are too afraid to spill the beans for fear that they might lose their jobs.
Take heat waves, for instance. The climate brigade routinely points to data charts starting in the 1960s that show steadily rising temperatures up until today, which they claim serves as “proof” that global warming is real. But if you look at heat data going back to the early 1900s rather than the 1960s, temperatures are actually down overall.
The same is true for wildfires, which we’re told are more prevalent today than ever before in history. But that’s only “true” if you look back to the 1980s, as historical data going back once again to the early 1900s shows that wildfire activity is drastically lower today than it was back then.
Polar ice caps are another climate talking point, as climate alarmists claim they’ve been steadily melting for several decades now, which is technically true. But data going back before 1975, which is the year climate fanatics often start with, shows that the polar ice caps continue to wax and wane in size, but typically gravitate back towards an equilibrium point...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...
