Do global warmers ever say not to talk about a study that promotes alarmism?

Question

'“Please don’t publicize this study,” said Theodore A. Scambos, a senior research scientist at the National Snow & Ice Data Center,'

This was about a study that showed Antarctica gaining ice.

Answer 1

Nope. They believe everything thing that supports it (even including the most ridiculous anti-science crap you could think of) and they won't consider any contrary evidence. Clearly they consider the Cause first and science and reality second. The Cause is Socialism.

Answer 2

There is no "study that promotes alarmism", if there were, I would have a good look at it and if it did not fit the mainstream, I would largely ignore it unless some one brings it up.

Deniers here are allarmist when they claim that the science is a hoax and that it is a tax grab or that we all have to live in caves.

Global warmers would be people who want the global temperature to be warmer. Other then Kano, I can not recall any one advocating for a warmer globe.



You didn't provide a link to the quote, (quite typical of people with a hidden agenda) so let me provide the first one the search showed up. [1]



If Zwally’s study is correct, it raises another question: Where did the sea level rise attributed to Antarctic ice melt originate?



In recent decades, the world’s oceans have risen an average of 2.8 millimeters (0.11 inch) per year, according to a 2013 report by the IPCC. That rise is attributed to Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets melting, to disappearing glaciers and to thermal expansion — when heat from climate change causes the ocean to expand, therefore causing a sea level rise.



“The good news is that Antarctica is not currently contributing to sea level rise, but is taking 0.23 mm per year away,” Zwally said last week in a press release.



“But this is also bad news,” he said. “If the 0.27 mm per year of sea level rise attributed to Antarctica in the IPCC report is not really coming from Antarctica, there must be some other contribution to sea level rise that is not accounted for.”

Answer 3

The University of Texas research team showed a likely cause for Antarctic melting was due to underwater volcanic activity. I'm sure he (Scambos) dismissed that also. He's sticking to his guns it seems. Alarmism works to his advantage.

From the link :



" ... Using the same methodology as the vaunted “97 percent” paper by researcher John Cook, two climate scientists have made a bold discovery: virtually all climate scientists agree that global warming has “stopped” or “slowed down” in recent years.



“We didn’t find a single paper on the topic that argued the rate of global warming has not slowed (or even stopped) in recent years,” wrote scientists Patrick Michaels and Chip Knappenberger with the libertarian Cato Institute.



“This is in direct opposition to the IPCC’s contention that global warming is accelerating, and supports arguments that the amount of warming that will occur over the remainder of the 21st century as a result of human fossil fuel usage will be at the low end of the IPCC projections, or even lower,” the two scientists added. “Low-end warming yields low-end impacts.” ... "



John Cook has never recanted his methodology on his famous "97% Consensus" study. Why would he?



They are way too arrogant and completely attached to their environmental and BIG GOVERNMENT "CAUSE". Any information that even remotely indicates the idea of ringing alarm bells, will surely get much more attention than a high rating in the Global agricultural prosperity index. It doesn't matter to them that a high % of food products get wasted because of bad transportation practices. They're too worried about 'ringing the bell' loud enough.

Answer 4

I think they caution the press about reading too much into studies all the time, but those cautions gets lost in quest for readers/viewers.



As for giving advice "not to talk about a study" I would think that would be a rare and strange thing to do and I suspect you only have the singular example (correct me if I'm wrong).



Certainly some "global warmers" have downplayed results that might seem "alarmist"--I'm surprised that you wouldn't be able find your own examples, since I'm pretty sure you've quoted Chris Landsea in here before. Landsea is, without a doubt, a "global warmer", and yet when the papers by Curry and Webster and Kerry Emanuel came out I believe that Landsea expressed doubts about those studies.



I guess you just interpret things to suit your own political beliefs, though, and push contrary evidence out of your mind.

Answer 5

I'm just going to leave a list here:

Top money grabbing bastards in the world:

1. Evolutionists.

2. Scientologists

3. Catholics

4. 'Cash for gold' businesses

5. The US government

6. Global warming activists

7. PETA

8. EA

9. Mormons

10. Hollywood

Answer 6

Upton Sinclair — 'It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.'



Or something like that...

Answer 7

if so it's because they know most of the population is scientifically illiterate so they will very likely not only take things out of context they will start spreading half-truths and misinformation

Answer 8

>>'“Please don’t publicize this study,” said Theodore A. Scambos, a senior research scientist at the National Snow & Ice Data Center,' <<



That exact (alleged) quote and sentence appears everywhere it is used - and it is all that appears. Even if he uttered the words, how do you know he was not referring to one of the ever-growing list of studies about the fragile psychology and unstable thinking of climate Deniers?

Answer 9

It turns out that NASA had their satellite recording in reverse and the ice is melting - move along nothing to see here, don't question anything!

Answer 10

no

Answer 11

no.
