Global Warming Truth

[PaulLowrance]

Once again, yes Lowrance, lets look at your 97% quote from the link above:

"(79 individuals in total). Of these specialists, 96.2% (76 of 79)answered “risen” to question 1 and 97.4% (75 of 77) answered yes to question 2."

You still use that silly quote that includes only 79 people, and only 77 of them agreed (97%). Your "Over 97% of active publishing climatologist believe humanity is the significant cause of global warming." quote is dishonest and deceptive. It is based off of only 77 out of 79 people.

Anonymous username ResinRat2,

The University took the survey of well over 3000. How many *active* and *publishing* climatologist do you think there are? Huh?  Again, this is a professional survey done by a University on the *percentage* of *active* and *publishing* climatologist.  That must really hurt Big Oil.

The survey you so famously quote was sent to all geosciences faculty at reporting academic institutions, along with researchers at state geologic surveys associated with local universities, and researchers at U.S. federal research facilities (e.g., U.S. Geological Survey, NASA, and NOAA (U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration).

Yes. if you can't understand why, then you don't understand statistics. The news media, example CNN, takes surveys all time based on a very small percentage.

The survey is on active publishing climatologist for good and obvious reasons. Ahh, did they exclude the truck load of fake scientists hired or paid off by Big Oil?

So you still did not answer the question.  How is it a concensus?  if only 3146 respond to over 10,000 geoscienctist, how is it?  And for your bashful boast of did they exclude the truck load of fake scientists hired or paid off by Big Oil, a survey is done with all sides contributing, it is nonbias, or it would not be a survey.  So if they survey is only done on active publishing climatologist wouldn't that mean it is bias, because you are still a scientist no matter how long ago it was you published a paper.  It could be that you are now teaching and have no time to publish a paper, that does not change what you are.  This survey is not like that of CNN it was meant to show an overwhelming majority of the science community as unified, instead it has left serious holes.

I don't have or want to make time to explain basic statistic to you.

I can't help you if you somehow think it is wrong to survey *active publishing* climatologist. This is not like some policeman pulling over by race. Nothing related. Seriously, just think about it for a nanosecond why the University would not want to survey scientists that are *inactive.*

Enough said. I have much better things to do, like work on my magnetic research.

I'll end todays Global Warming posts on the following graph, which clearly shows that Global Warming is occurring in big cities (black graph), not rural (red graph). The graph is in degrees Celsius *change*. I'm so thankful for all of the great people who are at least trying to reduce their carbon footprint. Thank you!!!
