[Stoves] Prakti two-burner stove features in article on "protecting the poor from climate change policies"

[Crispin Pemberton-Pigott]

Dear Richard The Wise

 

You will note a couple of things about that graph which I invite everyone to
examine closely:

 

The chart ends in 2005. It also says the 'long term trend is more apparent'
when a 5 year averaging is used - in other words if the points plotted are
smoothed from 2005 back to 2000. In that way the 'pause' or 'hiatus' is far
less evident because it (mostly) occurs after the year 2000. The fact
remains, in the 21st century global temperatures are not, in toto, higher
than they were at the end of the 20th. 

 

It happens that the same chart was used by Dr M Mann in a presentation in
Bristol UK a few days ago
<http://wattsupwiththat.com/2014/09/27/slides-from-the-michael-mann-lecture-
at-cabot-institute-in-bristol/> , and commentators noted the same thing:
that is hides the current lack of upward temperature change by avoiding the
presentation of current data and by applying 5 year soothing. There is a
name for that but I can't recall what it is.

 

I don't create temperature data, and I don't make climate models. I just
read the numbers and decide for myself what is real and what is imagination.
The claim that the surface temperatures are continuing to rise is false, in
the face of evidence. Maybe they will rise again, maybe not. I don't know.

 

Thanks

Crispin

 

 

Crispin.

Thanks for your opinion. Like  yourself however, I also  choose to remain
data-informed;
