  1. Mind the Gap climate science and the public ClimateSight.org

  2. CREDIBILITY

  3. most credible 0% organizations “Humans are not causing the Earth to warm” ~0% journals < 3% scientists 57% communicators 53% public least credible (Boykoff and Boykoff, 2004) (George Mason University, 2010) (Oreskes, 2004) (Doran and Zimmerman, 2009)

  4. 1. Scientists are ignorant 2. Scientists are frauds 3. Scientists know what they’re doing

  5. The Greenhouse Effect 1824 1859 1896

  6. today 2.1 million years Vostok et al, Global Warming Art, Honisch et al

  7. 390 ppm arsenic

  8. CO2 from fossil fuels is lighter Global Warming Art

  9. more greenhouse gases warming

  10. Zeke Hausfather

  11. We should be cooling....but we’re not Global Warming Art

  12. the fingerprint the DNA evidence the smoking gun

  13. rate of change

  14. Permian extinction

  15. killed 97% of ocean species 70% of land species “The Great Dying”

  16. 1. Scientists are ignorant 2. Scientists are frauds 3. Scientists know what they’re doing

  17. organizations journals scientists communicators public

  18. ? 1. Climatology is a complex science ? ? ? ?

  19. !!! 2. Powerful people are willing to exploit this complexity

  20. “Global warming is the greatest hoax ever imposed upon the American people”

  21. 3. Compliant media

  22. fewer journalists ....especially in science

  23. shorter deadlines

  24. BALANCE

  25. “Science journalism....is too often practiced by journalists who know so little about the subject they’re covering that they can’t properly evaluate the reliability or trustworthiness of potential sources. The result is that sources with no credibility in the field routinely appear alongside genuine experts as part of an effort to provide balance.” James Hyrynyshyn

  26. No science was compromised

  27. “hide the decline” actual temperatures tree growth (Briffa et al, 1998)

  28. “hide the decline” removing regional tree ring data known to be erroneous covering up a drop in global temperatures

  29. British Parliament: “the focus on CRU has largely been misplaced” “actions were in line with common practice” “they were not part of a systematic attempt to mislead” “analyses have been repeated and the conclusions have been verified”

  30. University of East Anglia: “no evidence of any deliberate scientific malpractice in any of the work of the CRU” “no hint of tailoring results to a particular agenda” “allegations of deliberate misrepresentation and unjustified selection of data are not valid”

  31. “The correspondence appears to suggest researchers may have squelched and skewed data to buttress the idea the world is warming up.”
