‘Nasa climate scientists: We said 2014 was the warmest year on record… but we’re only 38% sure we were right
The claim made headlines around the world, but yesterday it emerged that GISS’s analysis is subject to a margin of error. Nasa admits this means it is far from certain that 2014 set a record at all.
…Yet the Nasa press release failed to mention this, as well as the fact that the alleged ‘record’ amounted to an increase over 2010, the previous ‘warmest year’, of just two-hundredths of a degree – or 0.02C. The margin of error is said by scientists to be approximately 0.1C – several times as much…’ (bold mine)
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

If half the world weren’t fools the other half wouldn’t make a living.
Brilliant link, Caleb! Thank you.
Which means these clowns were 62% likely to be wrong – nearly twice as likely to be wrong as to be right. Had they been real scientists, they SHOULD have said “there is no statistically significant change in global temperature over the last 10 years”.
Muppets.
Dishonest muppets it would seem, MacDoctor. And the media is no better for repeating this bilge.
pfft. There’s no money in that, Mac. And no margin for destroying western civilisation and having themselves installed as High Priests with control over all society.
Oh yeah, plus … DENIER.
The pause is more like 18 years but your point is significantly valid, unlike most warming records consistently trumpeted by the Left. I do science for a living and would have had any paper I submitted thrown out with a conclusion based on a non-significant change as the basis but then I am not a climate guy.
BE QUIET
Global Warming is the centerpiece of the Leftist religion
,,,,and we have no right to be critical of another person’s religion UNLESS they are non-Muslims.
The next thing you know the Leftists willl paint themselves blue and dance naked to Gaia on the first day of spring. It sounds kinda like the ancient Celts, heh Maybe they will appoint some priests and do the old virgin sacrifice thingy
KG: “YOU BE QUIET, RON YOU’RE GIVING THEM IDEAS ”
At least we got an error bar this time. That’s a rare gift from the warmistas.
FUCKING POPE HE NEEDS TO BE DEAD FUCKING CHRISTIAN TRAITOR
