Well, two big stories on the "man-made global warming" front have emerged nearly simultaneously: NASA satellite data from the years 2000 through 2011 show the Earth's atmosphere is allowing far more heat to be released into space than alarmist computer models have predicted, reports a new study in the peer-reviewed science journal Remote Sensing. The study indicates far less future global warming will occur than United Nations computer models have predicted, and supports prior studies indicating increases in atmospheric carbon dioxidetrap far less heat than alarmists have claimed.
We've previously discussed the fallacies associated with the IPCC climate "models", only to be labeled as "scientifically illiterate" by self-styled "experts such as St. Helens resident David Appell, who has gone on to note that You don't have the right to ruin the planet for the rest of us -- it doesn't belong to you. While I had long assumed that Appell resided in his mom's basement, it appears that he actually rents an apartment in St. Helens.
In other news on the "man-made global warming" front, it appears that yet another "scientist" has been caught dirty: specifically, the guy behind the "drowning polar bears" scare-stories.
(AP) -- A federal wildlife biologist whose observation in 2004 of presumably drowned polar bears in the Arctic helped to galvanize the global warming movement has been placed on administrative leave and is being investigated for scientific misconduct, possibly over the veracity of that article.
Charles Monnett, an Anchorage-based scientist with the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement, or BOEMRE, was told July 18 that he was being put on leave, pending results of an investigation into "integrity issues."
