Over the last 7 or 8 years my work has evolved from debunking climate denial misinformation, to debunking misinformation about climate solutions, and working, (with some success) to encourage more siting of clean energy here in the upper midwest. Now it looks like I’m being dragged back to the bad old days.
We’re in a new age of climate denial, and as disgusting as it is, we are still seeing the golden oldies recycled again and again.
So in this case, I had to dig out one of my more detailed videos from the Yale Climate Connections series and repost it
It’s a pretty detailed explainer of how you create and maintain a multi-century temperature record, reconciling measurements from buckets tossed over the side of sailing ships, all the way through satellites gliding overhead.
Climate deniers tell each other that temperature records have been “adjusted” and immediately assume they they are discovering a by the globalist climate cabal.
The truth is more interesting.
