EPA Head: No Warming Since 1995 Doesnt Mean Warming Isnt Occurring 240210epaEPA Administrator Lisa Jackson engaged in doublespeak of the highest degree today as she told reporters that no statistically significant increase in global temperatures since 1995 does not mean that there has not been human induced global warming.
“The science regarding climate change is settled, and human activity is responsible for global warming,”
[What global warming?] [You just said there has been no global warming since 1995?]
Jackson said, adding that the EPA needs more funding to ensure climate change legislation is passed.
Jackson was asked if she agreed with recent statements by Phil Jones, the lead scientist at the centre of the climategate scandal that there had been no statistically significant global warming for fifteen years.
Earlier this month, Jones reversed his stance and admitted there had been no recent temperature increase and that his data was “probably not as good as it should be”.
Jones also told the BBC that he does not think the debate on climate change is over.
The EPA’s Jackson stated: “I believe all the new information we have doesn’t lead to any different conclusion than what we reached in the Endangerment Finding,” referring to the agency’s classification of Carbon Dioxide as a pollutant.
“…climate is changing and that mankind is responsible in part for that change, and that we need to move aggressively.” Jackson added, alluding to cap and trade legislation.
“We need to move clean energy legislation,” Jackson said. “We need to move to addressing carbon and putting a price on carbon emissions.”
On Tuesday Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe called for a full criminal investigation into the climategate affair, issuing a staff report that included a request for the EPA to re-examine the classification of Carbon Dioxide as a pollutant.
“The EPA accepted the IPCC’s erroneous claims wholesale, without doing its own independent review,” Inhofe said about the EPA’s decision to rely on information from the U.N.’s International Panel on Climate Change.
“So EPA’s endangerment finding rests on bad science,” he added.
An overturning of the EPA’s CO2 Endangerment Finding would decimate moves by the Obama Administration to regulate carbon emissions and introduce carbon taxes.
Inhofe described the manipulation of climate science to support anthropogenic global warming theory part of “the greatest scientific scandal of our generation”.
i think both sides manipulate the data to support their points of view. hell, everyone on the planet manipulates stuff to support their point of view.
ReplyDeleteeverybody manipulates the data no matter who's side your on..too much money in volved for them not too..
ReplyDeletedid you check out the article in the dam news ? if you want i can mail it to you ..i pulled it out of the paper and it's really got some great data.
I saw the AP feed for that story YdG.
ReplyDeleteWhat amazes me is, everybody with a brain knows 9-11 was an inside job, but nobody wants to touch the sacred AGW/CC cow!
Carlin was right: Religion is "the greatest bullshit story ever told", which is the REAL reason both myths have Kool-Aid drinking true-believers.
After watching Loose Change, I wonder if ANYTHING the talking heads on TV news say isn't a fuckin' lie.
Billy - I don't think the folks that say man made global warming is a fraud have to manipulate anything. Just the liars that want to tax co2, the stuff that plants breath, have got to fake the data.
ReplyDeleteYDG - I'll look at it. The ones trying to pass a fraudulent tax are the ones that have to skew the data. If they can't get rich by taxing a gas that is harmless, people might want to tax the REAL pollution coming out of the Fat Cat's factories and refineries, they can't have that.
Ted - Loose Change is the film that woke me up. I think that is why they are trying to keep the 9/11 truthers quiet. Once you see that 9/11 was an inside job, and you see what kind of ruthless fuckers we are dealing with, it makes you realize that they will do ANYTHING to get what they want. Believing the news media that use to be somewhat trustworthy is now like believing a hooker that says "I love you." because you paid her $10 extra to say it.
call me stupid and hit me with a stick but i think exxon mobile might manipulate data a wee bit.
ReplyDeleteBilly - I agree because big oil is all for cap and trade.
