You no doubt have read the "news" stories declaring that the past year, or the past season, or the past summer or winter, was the warmest on record. These "news" stories appear every few months, and have made their appearance at least annually for the past several years. And no doubt, many readers believe what they are reading, the earth is warming, global warming is real, climate change is here. But this simply is not true.
These reports about record high temperatures occur at the same time as other contradictory reports occur. For example, only days after reports of the coldest year in decades in South America, USA Today published a story declaring 2010 the hottest year on record. How can this be possible when all of South America was having record lows, the western U.S. was having record lows, and parts of Europe and Asia were also having unusual lows for the year? It's suspicious that the NOAA declares the world to be hotter than ever, at the same time many parts of the world have recorded the lowest average temperatures in years. This is called brainwashing, it is called lying until everyone believes the lie. It is not science.
I, as a weather guy, ask people around the world if they are experiencing an unusually warm year, "is it warmer where you live, than usual?" The answer is always, without exception, "no, our weather is normal," or "it's actually cooler than normal here." So if it's cooler everywhere, how can we be recording record high temperatures? it's easy.
For years there has been an ongoing battle between those who believe satellite temperature data and those who believe land based temperature data. Why the battle? The satellite temperature data does not support global warming, and the land based data does (supposedly). How can this be?
Here's what you need to understand. Over the past twenty years or so, government monitoring stations have been removed from remote areas, and moved to urban locations. Urban locations always give higher temperature readings than do the remote locations. The temperature in downtown Chicago is always going to be higher than the temperature fifty miles out in the country. Urban areas trap heat and give erroneous readings.
There are strict standards regarding the placement of temperature monitoring stations, they cannot be near heat generating equipment (air conditioners, for example), or within a certain number of feet of asphalt or concrete parking lots, etc. You get the idea? All these things give false readings, and corrupt the data, making it unreliable. But these standards are being completely ignored.
The born again global warming/climate change believers (many of them so-called scientists), are determined to support their bias at any cost. Consequently, hundreds of urban monitoring stations have been "carelessly" placed near air conditioning vents, asphalt and concrete parking lots, and other heat generating locations. This has not been done by accident, it is by design. The climate change believers must "prove" their bias.
So not only have they removed all the remote sensors, but they have moved them to urban areas that they know will show consistent higher readings, proving their bias, the earth is warming, the sky is falling, and you must continue to pay me to do something about this awful situation or we will all end up frying and dieing from our own carbon fuels consumption.
Furthering the deception (and it is deception) is the fact there are no monitoring stations over the 70 percent of the planet that we call our oceans. So we get no readings from 70 percent of the earth's surface, and they have removed the remote monitoring stations, so all we are recording is the temperatures from urban areas. Do you see a problem with this? Has the mainstream media ever reported this grand deception? Of course not.
But the satellite temperatures cannot be compromised. Satellites have highly sophisticated equipment on board that allow them to take readings from all corners of the earth, including the oceans, and the non-urban areas of the planet. So what do the satellites report? Surprise, surprise, global temperatures are not rising, but are actually cooling slightly. Thus, the global warming believers are going ape over satellite temperature reports and doing all in their power to discredit them.
But why? Why would supposed scientists not want the truth? Why would anyone want to deceive anyone else? What is to be gained? A lot. Money for example, and power, lots of power, and control.
We need look no further than your local, friendly, environmentalist for the answer. Environmentalism is built on the belief that man is the enemy to the earth, that man causes damage, harm and destruction to the earth, and that if the earth is to be saved, we (the enlightened environmentalists of the world) must do the saving.
Environmentalists have, for years, been trying to find a way to stop the use of carbon fuels, and global warming is the perfect answer to their prayers. Make carbon evil, declare it a pollutant, punish those who use carbon fuels, and use the taxing authority of governments, and the power and influence of the United Nations to push their agenda, and they can be the saviors of the planet, gain a ton of power, and dictate all things to all people--world wide.
Environmentalists are wannabe dictators, they are not educators, they are world dictators. They are never satisfied to merely teach you the earth is warming, but they want to control what you drive, what you eat, where you work, how you get there, where you live, what you live in...and did I mention they want you to send them billions of dollars in tax money to further their deceitful agenda? to pay their salaries? to pay for their "research" so they can further brainwash you, your spouse, your children, and your grandchildren, that carbon is a pollutant, that capitalism is evil, that SUVs are evil, that there are too many people on the earth, that we must pay them to fix all these straw man problems.
And so we come back to the matter of global warming. If their deceit here is exposed, if satellite data is accepted as accurate, and their sloppy science is exposed for what it is, and the cat ever gets out of the bag; oh my, this must never happen. And so the deceit and the brainwashing continues. It begins in kindergarten, and is strengthened in every grade level thereafter. And if your child goes to college, it really gets intense.
