I somehow missed this jewel before.
OK that is sort of a funny phrase, “an observation based on the facts” , and then there is “the climatological consensus”.
What does that mean? Because I tend to INCLUDE A LINK TO THE DATA when I point to some facts, I figure my observation isn’t the key thing. It’s yours.
And I didn’t know that the facts changed because of the climatological consensus. To me, if you can observe it, if it’s recorded, if it’s right there on the page, it’s not a matter of debate. If the GISS trend shows -.13 C
THEN THAT IS WHAT IT SHOWS
How else can you look at it? If my point is about a period of time, say the last 100 years, and I say, hey, look at this trend for the last 100 years, how the fuck is that “an observation” that is at odds with the climatological consensus? I mean, what the fuck?
Are you telling me people look at the same map and see different things?
a 100 year trend from GISS
That there are different ways to observe the same thing?
How in the fuck is that scientific?
