During the third week of February our global community of Earth and space scientists witnessed the shocking fall from grace of an accomplished AGU member who betrayed the principles of scientific integrity. In doing so he compromised AGU’s credibility as a scientific society, weakened the public’s trust in scientists, and produced fresh fuel for the unproductive and seemingly endless ideological firestorm surrounding the reality of the Earth’s changing climate.
The ‘warm-nistas’ are ideologues not scientists.
Scientists have a ‘falsifiable hypothesis’ and AGW is not falsifiable. These clowns are little better than street corner shell game artists.
Gleick or Glock their theory is shot to pieces…

Gleick not only meet his waterloo by inventing it himself. Hes now drowning in his own sanitation filled river of lies.
Never fear though. Being a Marxist he will have friends with finds to squirrel him away . Till he breaks forth in another flood of fabricated BS.
Really the only people who believe in AGW global warming now are clowns with political circuses.
The money is still to tempting to abandon the great Lie in taxes for nothing.
“The reality of the Earth’s changing climate”?? Someone should declare a Smug Alert.
Whenever we think that the skeptic side is finally making some progress in opening a debate we should reflect on the profound commitment there is to the current paradigm. No one on the AGW alarmism side is going to willingly admit that there is any room for debate. It seems to be about far more than science.
To the skeptics the AGU lost its integrity some time ago when it embraced the fraudulent lies of AGW. Today only those who believe in Marxist ideology or are useful idiots of same still believe in man made global warming.
That’s what’s always been so astonishing to me. The scientific method by definition is supposed to ENCOURAGE debate to arrive at the truth. These people have not been following the scientific method at all. The scientific method is what makes science… science. If you don’t follow it’s principles, you can no longer call it science.
The National Post’s John Moore wrote a smug warmist column about this about a day after the whole issue had been exposed. I couldn’t figure out why somebody would be so out of the loop that they wouldn’t at least keep their mouth shut on the topic. Then I realized he doesn’t read any of the skeptic sources, because he “knows” they’re lying or not scientific.
Smart people must see this theory is dying, but it’s an important element of the liberal theology. If they let this one go, what’s next?
The world is laughing at Suzuki’s desmog blog.

I’m looking forward to global warming. It’s called springtime in Canada!
I question why he was picked to lead a Scientific Integrity process. It may not be obvious, but most of those that knew him would have had doubts about his ethics. It tells a lot about those in Science that they don’t understand or care for Science
It seems to be about far more than science.

Oh it is for sure. This is the new Religion of the Humanists. Environmentalism is now a faith based belief, coddled in a thin wrapper of pseudo-science. To leave them has almost as bad consequences as being a Muslim apostate. There are big penalties. Publicly professionally. At any rate it has killed hundreds if not more, jobs.
If you really want to confuse a CAGW supporter, start asking about falsification criteria. When they try to put the onus on you, tell them you support the null hypothesis (nothing not explainable by natural variation has occurred) that requires no proof. If they try to change the meaning of null hypothesis, tell them they have a religion and that what they’re calling for has nothing to do with science.
For most folks it really does have nothing to do with science. And they’ll call you all kinds of names if you tell them that (or try to prove it to them – not that you can overturn a religion belief with logic).
Slapshot, there’s no mystery here. The warmistas have been ensuring that their principal supporters are all appointed to key posts like this. The selection criteria is not about ethics. The selection criteria are all about devotion to the global warming cause. It’s a process which has been going on for years at just about every major scientific association.
