Скандал в благородном семействе

Пишут, что в цитадели борьбы с изменением климата, NOAA, завелся whistleblower. Да как свистнул!

But the whistleblower, Dr John Bates, a top NOAA scientist with an impeccable reputation, has shown The Mail on Sunday irrefutable evidence that the paper was based on misleading, ‘unverified’ data.

It was never subjected to NOAA’s rigorous internal evaluation process – which Dr Bates devised.

His vehement objections to the publication of the faulty data were overridden by his NOAA superiors in what he describes as a ‘blatant attempt to intensify the impact’ of what became known as the Pausebuster paper.

His disclosures are likely to stiffen President Trump’s determination to enact his pledges to reverse his predecessor’s ‘green’ policies, and to withdraw from the Paris deal – so triggering an intense political row.

,,,

In an exclusive interview, Dr Bates accused the lead author of the paper, Thomas Karl, who was until last year director of the NOAA section that produces climate data – the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) – of ‘insisting on decisions and scientific choices that maximised warming and minimised documentation… in an effort to discredit the notion of a global warming pause, rushed so that he could time publication to influence national and international deliberations on climate policy’.

Не может быть! Кто бы мог подумать, а.

If you are denying reality then you are.

denying reality

Ух ты.

What, you're denying that reality even exists?

Я просто восхитился Вашей терминологией. Вот уж действительно slippery slope, хрен остановишься.

Never mind the terminology. Try to understand the message.

Я пытался, но давно бросил. Очень сложно для меня оказалось, Вы слишком умны. Так что буду, если не возражаете, восхищаться стилем и терминологией. Пока мне и это не надоест.

Sarcasm alone is not effective. You still need to make done sense.

Нет, мне это больше не нужно. Хватит с Вас и сарказма.

All right. I am showing them the very NOAA graph of temperature anomalies as a function of time and suggest that we would discuss it. They answer that there is a consensus about the global warming, that no reasonable person denies it, that this is what the evidence-based science is, and that an urgent political action is needed to drastically reduce the carbon footprint in order to save the planet, and the damn Republicans are in the way. And that no discussion is needed anymore, it is a waste of time. And that those who disagree are on the wrong side of history. And that the students have to be taught that all this is undeniable.

Это у вас коллеги так «рассуждают»? Сочувствую. Не очень правда понимаю зачем Вы хотите с ними вообще что-то обсуждать.

Кaк прaвилo тoлькo если речь идёт o публичных oбcуждениях. A цель мoя в тoм, чтoбы студенты не думaли, чтo нет никoгo, ктo не сoглaсен с этими ребятaми.
