Climate Denial Crock of the Week - That 1500 Year Thing

Climate Deniers S. Fred Singer and Dennis Avery make their living by confusing and obfuscating the science of climate change. Their latest book, "Unstoppable Global Warming every 1500 Years", is a compendium of vintage as well as cutting edge climate crocks. Let's find out who they are and how they are bamboozling their audience.

As a Canadian I love that when you require facts you often use documentaries produced by the CBC or shown on CTV. Canada CAN be trusted!

they do some good journalism. But the need is great for sharp focus on the alberta tar sands, which could make Canada a leading contributor to climate change.

On second thought - i apologize to any worm for comparing them to F Singer.

[greenman3610]

worms perform many useful and beneficial functions for humanity and the ecosystem. Not so for Singer.

it's funny seeing little kids come on youtube and try to sound intelligent with the info they googled and pieced together there little shit video on some bullshit program mommy baught them. i'm a geologist and so are my parents so take it from someone who has actually deadicated a lot of time into the research YOUR WRONG! the carboniferous is structured in such a way that the rapid incline of water wouldn't cause any harm to us or the future of mankind so this entire study is pointless.

Fred Singer is a WORM. Not knowing the truth is excusable, you can get informed. But KNOWING and HIDING it , even thought MILLIONS of people will be affected is just SICK.

This guy is a mini-Hitler !

you mean all tree rong reconstructions only go to 1960, yes indeed, because of the divergence problem.

[Aanthanur DC]

the Hockey stick is valid, because reconstructions that use no tree ring data do agree with it and show the same hockey stick. and all those different proxies do agree with eachother pretty well, with the only exception beeing tree rings from 1960 on.
