A new study published in the scientific peer-reviewed journal, Climate, by 37 researchers from 18 countries suggests that current estimates of global warming are contaminated by urban warming biases. The study also suggests that the solar activity estimates considered in the most recent reports by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) likely underestimated the role of the Sun in global warming since the 19th century. It is well-known that cities are warmer than the surroundin
I suspect that eliminating cities from your data set will also result in the finding that the ocean temperatures have cooled over time. Everybody pack it up, we’re done here. I expect to see this paper (two papers, actually, but authored by basically all the same scientists) quoted by Republicans, Fascists, and Fossil Fuel company CEOs very soon now.
EDIT: I just realize that this article is sitting at -8, and really, anyone who is seeing this as likely Grade AA bullshit needs to upvote it instead so that we can all know this tripe exists and be ready to counter it.
