Ok, let's just think rationally about this for a moment, again, without sides, but in just thinking about purposes and reasons.
i havent taken ''any side''
If in fact, the grand conspiracy is actually NASA creating fraudulent data it begs the question - why?
there is no IF about it, nasa HAS beyond any shadow of doubt replace around 70 years of raw data with fraudulent manufactured data, now your asking me to guess why.
What gain would the space faring NASA get from this narrative that you are presenting of people cooking the books?
again you talk as if there is doubt about the swapping of data, where the wayback machine alone PROVES beyond doubt that they have, and again you ask me to guess why.
What's the agenda?
i dont know.
I see a large corporation that can't maintain their history - every archival environment fails this way, and yes, they may even fail again and invent data possibly.
there was no failure in this instance, just fraud.
But do they have some evil agenda on the whole, as in the prime directive from NASA is to promote global warming?
obviously there are people and influence's, putting the organisation in league with the IPCC
Does that sound like a reasonable discussion that all the dept. heads are talking about in their monthly meetings - of course not.
well why say it then ?.
But it's red herrings for folk like Goddard to fuel their blog anger - it's a battle about sides. I don't live there.
an example of red herring is your second last sentence.
On the other hand the narrative of climate denial, of connecting the conspiracist dots, the removal of interdisciplinary thought from the discussion that does connect the appeals of hatred, and distrust - WHO DOES THAT SERVE?
the IPCC have been using junk data, anyone who cares to look for just a few hours, cannot come to any other conclusion, so as you say WHO DOES THAT SERVE?
Some say it serves rational discourse, as you are telling me.
rational discourse is hard with you on this subject, its in your soul, you DONT CARE that the IPCC raw data is cherry picked and/or straight up 'man made', show me data from institutions that are not politically tainted.
@manxman , I appreciate where you are coming from.
then you will know i have seen for myself dozens of fraudulently replaced raw data charts etc.
If you read my posts, about the formation of my beliefs, you know I come by my environmentalsim from my family and lived experiences.
yes i know that is where you EXTREME bias on this topic originates.
I only read this climate material to talk to those who promote narratives of big oil.
i have no love for big oil, thieving destructive bastards
It's not something I pursue at all.
obviously you are
I think people who are smart need to better critically examine their sources, their purposes and what they might be unknowingly promoting
correct, thats why you need to stand back, take a deep breath, prepare yourself to look honestly, at the data sources you place your faith in, and have the intellectual integrity to admit to yourself, dis-honesty when you confront it, which you surely will
I grow trees from seed and plant them in burnt out industrial fields.
that's nice
For me, the narrative around climate, pollution, disease, extinction and environmental devestation are all interconnected.
yes i know, for me this debate is about GLOBAL WARMING /CLIMATE CHANGE RAW DATA only, this is why all your APPEALS TO EMOTION are a pain in the ass.
Some throw up their hands and say that's the history of life on earth. That to me is a categorical abdication of human responsibility.
I agree
I think the real evil has always been those with big power keeping people like you and me dancing on the stage of god about a futile discourse i.e. Evil NASA with its global warming conspiracy.
another 'appeal'
Who is served by such debates? Why are we wasting the time instead of just working on what we inow is right: regulating industry to promote environmental responsibility.
we are not having a debate about regulating industrie and all issues green, YOU ARE, im discusing the raw data the IPCC bases its models and forcasts on for global warming.
But industry, corporate power, and über-wealth fuels the discourse for the sake of personal and shareholder profit. That's my reality.
Appeal
What's yours? That $$$ is being wasted in the name of a false science-is that correct?
no, my problem is the way the science is being fraudulently manipulated, for political ends.
So you tell me what in fact the capital losses are to humanity for the wastelands that big oil and mining have left in their wake over the years and then you tell me what their profits have been.
dont know, what has big oil got to do with the IPCC using fraudulent raw data.
Then you tell where we should be putting our energies into and what's worth defending?
different topic for another thread, i understand your passion for green issues, they are not my passion, i am only interested in this raw data issue.
The amount of money put into climate pursuits is a pittance up against the billions made from industry who never protect workers, clean up their mess or reinvest in the communities they destroyed.
again a lovely appeal to emotion, but off-topic.
