The visual below shows the Hansen 1999 United States regional surface temperature chart on the left, along side a Hockey Stick global temperature chart, on the right.
As you can see, the U.S. chart shows that the temperatures were just as warm in the 1930’s as they are today. All original regional surface temperature charts from around the world show a similar temperature trend, where it was just as warm in the recent past as it is today. What this means is that CO2 has had little effect on the Earth’s temperatures because even though there is more CO2 in the air today, than there was in the 1930’s, it is no warmer today than then
The Hockey Stick chart shows a completely different temperature profile than what the regional charts show. The Hockey Stick chart shows the temperatures getting hotter and hotter and hotter since the end of the Little Ice Age around 1850, and it shows that today is the hottest period in human history.
So these two temperature charts are completely at odds with each other. One temperature trend is real, the regional charts, and one is not.
Since the Hockey Stick global chart was created in a computer and uses regional temperature data as its input, the question is “How does one derive a Hockey Stick “hotter and hotter and hotter” temperature profile out of regional temperature data that does not show a “hotter and hotter and hotter” temperature profile? The original, regional, written, historic temperature data is the only data available to the Hockey Stick creators, so what computer method transforms a benign “just as warm in the recent past” temperature profile, into a very scary “hotter and hotter and hotter” Hockey Stick temperature profile?
The answer is: Temperature Data Fraud on the part of those who created the Hockey Stick Abomination. These Temperature Data Mannipulators wanted to create a temperature profile that correlated with CO2 increases in order to sell the Human-caused Climate Change narrative. And that’s exactly what they did. See Climategate. They have fooled much of the world into believing CO2 is causing atmospheric temperatures to increase and their only “evidence” is this bogus, bastardized Hockey Stick temperature profile.
Here’s the way to recognize if you are looking at a bastardized Hockey Stick chart: Look at the 1930’s. If the 1930’s don’t show to be just as warm as today, then you are looking at a bastardized Hockey Stick chart. Somebody is trying to fool you.
You can thank Phil Jones for most of this Hockey Stick deception.
I ask this question all the time, but none of the Climate Alarmists seem to want to try to answer this question. How do you get a Hockey Stick profile out of regional data that does not have a Hockey Stick proifle?
Anybody?
