Climate alarmists have a poor reputation around data manipulation as this short video discussing the recent US climate assessment unpacks. https://www.globalchange.gov https://www.globalchange.gov https://youtu.be/8455KEDitpU https://youtu.be/8455KEDitpU 11 year solar cycles are a split second moment in time in comparison to the longer term data which is so often cherry picked and truncated to illustrate various agendas, whether dishonest globalist energy corporate entities or climate alarmists. I'm all for responsible stewardship of the planet, but there i s no shortage of climate grifters, charlatans and hustlers out there, many of whom are actually influencing government policy and data. Unhelpful.

Linking to Tony Heller in 2021 is just embarrassing. https://tamino.wordpress.com/2018/08/08/usa-temperature-can-i-sucker-you/#comments https://tamino.wordpress.com/2018/08/08/usa-temperature-can-... https://www.reddit.com/r/ClimateOffensive/comments/cm9l2q/tony_heller_and_data_adjustments/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ClimateOffensive/comments/cm9l2q/to... You and I agree on one thing: there certainly is no shortage of climate grifters, charlatans, and hustlers out there. Some days I feel social media was a mistake.

  I'm only interested in data, not personalities, whether Tony Heller or Greta Thunberg/Severn Suzuki.

    Well, good! Heller cherry-picks inappropriately processed data and thrives on fanning the flames of anti-science contrarianism. His output intentionally misrepresents data to maximize emotional response. Since you value data, I can only assume you'll review his methods more closely and conclude he's full of shit.

      Phrases like 'anti-science contrarianism', 'global warming denier' etc are primarily emotion driven. Add in a bit of profanity and you have a fairly typical reactive climate alarmist. What 'inappropriately processed data' were you referring to in particular?

        you already posted that link. 'Lies, damned lies and statistics'...

        Yes. Did you get a chance to read it? It concisely and specifically presents the dishonesty of Steve Goddard, AKA Tony Heller, and why he is precisely one of the "grifters, charlatans, and hustlers" you claim to be so wary of. Though I try to take charitable view on this site, I sense from your repeated avoidance of substantive discourse that you never intended to engage in that in the first place. Happy to be proven wrong, though!

        Of course I read it! Interesting opinions but nothing very substantial, more character assassination than 'substantive discourse'. Do you have any ideas of your own on this other than other people's posted light weight rebuttals? you seem to be unsure about contexts and timeframes...
