RE: CIA Climate Change Office Under Attack Before It Even Opens
What's the World Meterological Organisation Up To?
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) on The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) on Thu Aug 21, 2008 reported: ?The first half of 2008 was The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) on Thu Aug 21, 2008 reported: ?The first half of 2008 was the coolest for at least five yearsThe World Meteorological Organization (WMO) on Thu Aug 21, 2008 reported: ?The first half of 2008 was the coolest for at least five years, the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) said on Wednesday. The whole year will almost certainly be cooler than recent years, although temperatures remain above the historical average.?
Yet on 5 December 2009 they reported at the Copenhagen Summit: ?This decade is the warmest on record and 2009 is likely to rank as the fifth warmest year since the beginning of instrumental climate recordings in 1850.?
Vicky Pope, head of climate change advice at the Met Office, said the Office analysed land temperature data using a computer code developed by CRU. She said CRU also supplied the Met Office with original data from some remote weather stations which had a significant impact on the global average.
This sudden backflip for the IPCC and Copenhagen Summit is making many wonder if the WMO are the latest to have adopted Michael Mann's ?trick? of massaging data to suit a preconceived agenda!
