  13. Yes. Ground-based data are very quirky. A site that was once out in a field is now in the middle of a parking lot. A site that was once a weather station is no longer, so they PROJECT what they THINK the temperatures are at the now-missing site. A significant percentage of so-called data are actually back-filled projections of this sort. Nobody really has a handle on tracking climate change at ground level. Regardless of whether climate is changing one way or another, I haven't heard one single policy proposal that could reasonably be implemented planet-wide, that would affect any projected increase in any significant way. Time and time again - for instance carbon taxes on British coal-fired electrical generation - the proposal means more power for the elites, and more wealth extracted from the economy, and little net benefit, since the biggest coal burners get a free pass, because they scoff at the idea of bending the knee. But Britain bends the knee. The most likely thing to get us out of pollution crisis is for government to get out of the way and let competent people in business and smart consumers evolve the society to healthier norms. These guys always want to solve problems by force, through the use of central power. Always a mechanistic world view. Always giving control to bureaucrats over people who actually do things and know things out in the real world. Al Gore went straight from making documentaries to brokering carbon credits. Nothing fishy about that... Nothing fishy about having the carbon footprint of 100 average citizens, combined... Nothing fishy about the beachfront property he bought.... Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't think it won't be flooded. Maybe it just means he's confident he can get a fat check when the day comes. People like him seem to thrive on crisis at others' expense.
