The Global Warming Resistance with Brit & Grit

Hi Brit,
While it may give too much insight into my personality, I check SurfaceStations.org on a regular basis.  My last visit was most informative.  Since the start of the Global Warming Alarmist claims, I’ve been most suspicious of the historic temperature data that is the foundation for their hue and cry.  Remember, the global mean temperature […]

Hi Brit,
Here’s an example of how the Global Warming Alarmists manipulate the numbers to fool those who don’t pay attention.  Once again, I’ve been playing with NASA’s convenient temperature map tool.  All of the following maps use the corrected land data set and the only available ocean data set and are comparing the year 2006 to […]

Hi Brit,
What with all the uproar over James Hansen screwing up some data, I figured some further investigation into the heart of Global Warming, that being temperature measurements, was in order.  First, now that Climate Audit is back up on a limited basis, I managed to find this handy table comparing the pre-correction US temperatures to the […]

Hi Brit,
I was hunting around this morning and found:
TEMPERATURE:
 The weather station temperature sensor is supposed to be accurate to within +/0.5 degrees C over the 0-70 degree C range. Below 0 degrees C, it is nonlinear, but for temperatures in the lower United States, errors will be less than 2 degrees. Because the temperature […]

Hi Brit,
I’ve noticed a trend in Global Warming news reports, and figured it should be pointed out.  Here are some sample stories, that are, to say the least, rather dramatic and alarming if you just read the headline, which a lot of people do:
Flesh-eating Disease Is On The Rise Due To Global Warming, Experts Warn
Global […]

Hi Brit,
NASA, it seems, was wrong!  As it turns out, we’ve been in a cooling period for years, Red faces at NASA over climate-change blunder.  Apparently, the “climate scientists” sucking at the Government teat, screwed up when running their “corrections” on the temperature data, which fact was discovered by a Canadian named Stephen McIntyre.  After […]

Hi Brit,
I’m sure you recall that one of my complaints as to the way “Climate Scientists” are manipulating the raw data of the historic temperature record was their smoothing of the data over huge areas based on data from other weather stations.  Just for fun, I was playing with the GISS (Goddard Institute of Space […]

Hi Brit,
A comment from our friend Reasic, combined with out other blog being down for a while, has spurred me to post about problems with how the Global Mean Annual Temperature is determined.  The heart of this comment is:
The earth’s surface is divided into 80 equal area “boxes”, the full dimension of a box side […]

Hi Brit,
I’ve spent a good bit of time researching Global Warming over the last few months, and it’s a very frustrating experience.  Every time I think I may have finally found the bottom most layer of information on which the Global Warming theory is based, it turns out that there is another reference to follow […]

Hi Brit,
I’ve spent a good deal of time today cleaning house, but, while waiting on various appliances to do their jobs, I’ve done some investigating into the foundation for the Global Warming theory.  Since, for most of it, one needs to know the secret handshake to gain access, my success was limited.  However, I did […]
