The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is a scientific agency that is part of the Commerce Department. After the Climategate incident a few months back, it's clear that the public cannot rely on information they're given by organizations with an agenda. A report last week stated that the Himalayan glaciers would completely melt by 2035, which is far-fetched even in the most severe situations. It turns out the report was based on speculation, not science, a common trend for global warming alarmists.
So how does NOAA get caught up in this mess involving scientists that fudge the numbers and lie to support their data? The United Nations uses data collected by NOAA as a part of their scare tactics for global warming. They operate some 7000 weather stations which they use to extract temperature data.
The Weather Channel founder and activist against man-made climate change, John Coleman, found some irregularities in NOAA's data collecting practices, placing NOAA in the same category alongside the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change and the Climate Research Unit at East Anglia University. America finally has its own Climategate.
Meteorologist Joseph D'Aleo and computer programmer E. Michael Smith prove the global warming alarmist strategy at NOAA.
"NOAA systemically eliminated 75% of the weather stations with a clear bias toward removing higher-latitude, high-latititude and rural locations, all of which had a tendency to be cooler. The thermometers, in a sense, marched towards the tropics, the sea, and to airport tarmacs."
NOAA has claimed that 2009 was one of the warmest years on record and it's no wonder why. NOAA picked the thermometers in their warmest locations, while omitting ones in cooler zones. This is just like a kid that tries to make a thermometer warmer before showing his parents so he can fake being sick and stay home from school; and possibly convince his friend to let him borrow his dad's Ferrari.
The global warming and climate change myth has so much egg on its face that it makes a bukkake look like a cake walk. Interestingly, though, is how there are still so many people that believe denial is a river in Egypt.
