Global Warming Alarmism (GWA) is Junk Science

One of my favorite new discoveries is JunkScience.com, a fantastic site that debunks junk science presented by the media, personal injury lawyers, by social activists, governmental regulators, businesses, politicians, and individual scientists and citizens. The site’s owner has impressive credentials, and he takes on all sorts of junk science, including, what do you know, global warming alarmism. Check out his many GW articles, including

Climate Alarmists Abuse ‘Children’ (how the current waste of efforts on GWA is allowing 18,000 children to die of malnutrition daily – one of the consequences of the unscientific alarm of GWA)
Beware the Eco-Industrial Complex (why GWA is big business, and where there’s money, science can be manipulated)
This "global warming" thing… what Watt is what? (very technical debunking of IPCC conclusions)
Must-See Global Warming TV (link to BBC special The Global Warming Swindle)
Can’t See the Warming for the Trees (new report showing that northern forests contribute significantly to global warming. Another example of how GW hysteria is outpacing science.)

More evidence of fundie xian hatred of science.
12th century here we come!

I'll have to read through that. I note, however, that rebuttal graphs and analyses are available. http://motls.blogspot.com/2004/09/sunspots-correl… http://www.global-warming-and-the-climate.com/
But it is possible that cosmic rays are not enough to explain global warming http://www.logicalscience.com/skeptic_arguments/t…

I looked at those charts Seeker. Those are independent and have nothing to do with the “Swindle” documentary. Let me see if I can help…
This first pair of pictures compares the partial temperature record as presented in “The Great Global Warming Swindle” vs. the actual observations as shown at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
Faked Graph: The Great Global Warming Swindle
The vertical bars at the right are the pseudo-documentary’s assertion that most of the recent rise in global temperatures occurred before 1940. The exact words from the pseudo-documentary are:
“Most of the rise in temperature occurred before 1940.” (About 14 min. 20 sec. into the presentation.)
Please take a close look at the right-hand portion of the graph.
The picture below shows the actual changes in the world’s temperature as presented by NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
Actual Graph: changes in the world’s temperature as presented by NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
Again please take a close look at the right-hand portion of the graph. The pseudo-documentary version of the temperature graph omits the last 20 years of data. (And “fluffed” the graph to disguise this omission.) The rapid increase in world temperatures over the last 20 years has paralleled the rapid rise in carbon dioxide concentrations. However, the pseudo-documentary does not include this data.
The director of the pseudo-documentary has willfully omitted this most recent data because it would disprove the personal agenda that he is trying to promote. When anyone misrepresents real data to try to present a personal agenda, what he is doing is flat out
FRAUD!!
That’s just the beginning. You are deceiving people by promoting misinformation like this “documentary” Seeker. Where is your integrity? Stop spreading lies!
