Each year, scientists at NASA'S Goddard Institute for Space Studies analyze global temperature data. The past year, 2009, tied as the second warmest year since global instrumental temperature records began 130 years ago. Worldwide, the mean temperature was 0.57°C (1.03°F) warmer than the 1951-1980 base period. And January 2000 to December 2009 came out as the warmest decade on record.

Don\'t be fooled...   (05/27/10 - 20:46 - by Dougetit)
What a carefully worded con job. NASA does use satellites to
“collect” temperature data, but this is data from ground stationed
thermometers, NOT the actual temperature data that the satellites
provide. Satellite instruments are highly more accurate and evenly
cover 98% of the earth, whereas ground based weather stations are more
susceptible to uneven coverage, error and manipulation.

While it is true that NASA uses the actual satellite measurements for
Sea Surface temperatures, they then manipulate the data beyond
recognition to compensate for what James Hansen claims to be a cooling
bias.

So why does NASA refuse to use more accurate tools at their disposal?
You guessed it. They could not possibly make the claims they have
been making. By doing an “end around” the satellite data gives them
the ability to pick and choose weather station data which agree with
their agenda of scaring the public into buying into their “warming”
scare tactics. I\'ve been plotting Hansen\'s data for quite a while
now and have found that he “adjusts” numerous early temperature
anomalies cooler, while increasing later temperatures warmer on a
monthly basis.

How do you think that these claims have been ever more dire? Don\'t be
fooled.

NASA is claiming more than twice the global warming than is actually
happening. You don\'t have to believe me. If you were to check the
entire 31+ year satellite data set,
http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/data/msu/t2lt/tltglhmam_5.3 you would find
that global temperatures have increased by less than 14 one hundredths
of one degree per decade. Hardly enough to scare the public into a
frenzy as Hansen has been able to do with is fraudulent claims.

This corruption of the temperature record has poisoned the entire
climate science profession. Garbage in-garbage out. Mark my words.
At some point the deception will be exposed. It can\'t be contained
forever. Once the “believers” discover that they have been had,
they\'re not going to be too happy, not to mention the taxpayer\'s, at
whose expense billions have been wasted.

One can only guess as to what motivates NASA to panic the public by
embellishing and torturing the data to such an extent. One thing is
for certain. It shows how scientists are human and not above losing
their sense of objectivity.

Objectivity. ‘Scientists are not as objective as their traditional
image implies. Although science has built into it many safeguards for
encouraging objectivity, scientists are still human like everyone
else. They have unconscious, if not conscious, notions about what the
results of an experiment should be. These notions often influence not
only the design of the experiment but also the gathering and
interpretation of the data. Some scientists begin to \"believe,\" not
just use, certain pet theories and they become so emotionally attached
to the theories that they lose their objectivity. Some scientists play
politics and some are affected by profit motives, budgets, fads, wars,
and religious beliefs. This is not to say that scientists do not
strive for objectivity, but only that they might not always attain
it.’ (Zumdahl)

The rate of warming is going on increasing. Last two decades were
hottest in the records of 400 years. Due to this, mountains are
melting, resulting in rising sea level which is very dangerous to
human life.
