Just from today, so far...
Almost every day, articles and claims are made that this proves or disproves global warming, written or made by people who have not the slightest idea of how complex the studies are. Below, in sections 2 and 3, I refer to two local studies which, as you will see, are being widely confused with 'global warming', pro or con.
What is particularly amazing is the incredible dogmatism of the ignorant writers of these items.
Yet more examples of the arrogance of ignorance.
The first section gives some idea of the complexity of these studies, both parts being taken from today. The second section has a claim for a localised study in Asia, purporting to be global. The third section has this week's example of the extreme "it ain't happening" tendency, which makes the contrary claim with the same error.
