'We are the world!' These people are lying to you. What's worse is that they have no idea that they are lying to you. They really believe climate change is man-made, and that they are the ones to save you from it.
John Bates told the Sunday Mail that Thomas Karl, the head of the climate change department at the government agency, authored a paper based on false data, "rushed" it into publication, and then saw his work used to make international commitments to fight global warming worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
After rising by 0.113C per decade between 1950 and 1999, temperatures appeared to have stabilized between 2000 and 2014, despite rising levels of CO2 emissions, which climate change scientists said were responsible for the earlier warming.
The "pause,"unveiled in a 2012 UN report, shook up the entire scientific community, and cast doubt upon hundreds of models confidently predicting a trend of accelerating warming.
