Climate ‘Scientists’ in Panic: Real Debate and Fact Checking Will Expose ‘Consensus’ Fraud

Steven Koonin

Scott Pruitt and Steven Koonin have climate scientist-activists and their media promoters ranting and sputtering in an epic meltdown.

Pruitt is, of course, President Trump’s outspoken administrator in charge of the federal Environmental Protection Agency. Dr. Koonin, a physicist and professor at New York University, was undersecretary of the Energy Department in the Obama administration.

Pruitt and Koonin, along with Energy Secretary Rick Perry, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, and an impressive lineup of distinguished scientists have stirred the proverbial hornets’ nest by proposing (of all things!) — a scientific debate.

Climate alarmists say this is “dangerous,” even “un-American.” And why does the thought of debate stir such ire, angst, and venom in supposedly dispassionate, objective, “scientific” circles? After all, isn’t that what science is all about: testing, challenging, reviewing? Apparently not — at least not when “climate science” is involved. No less a scientific authority than Al Gore has assured us that when it comes to anthropogenic (human-caused) global warming, AGW, “the science is settled.”

However, the science is far from settled, as the alarmist choir well knows, though is loath to admit. Despite thousands of stories in the print and broadcast media declaring that “97 percent of climate scientists” endorse the idea that global warming is a dire threat and man is causing it, that fraudulent claim has been crumbling rapidly. And the alarmists fear if they lose their most cherished “consensus” weapon in an open debate, their already far-advanced radical agenda will be dealt a possibly fatal set-back. President Trump has already canceled President Obama’s unconstitutional “ratification” of the UN’s Paris agreement. Now Pruitt, Koonin, and others are calling for an adversarial Red Team-Blue Team audit of climate science.

Although he is not the first to come up with the idea, Dr. Koonin got the concept rolling this past April with a column for the Wall Street Journal entitled “A ‘Red Team’ Exercise Would Strengthen Climate Science.” “Put the ‘consensus’ to a test,” he argued, “and improve public understanding, through an open, adversarial process.”

What could be wrong with that? If the evidence for manmade global warming is as “overwhelming” as the alarmists claim, and if the “scientific consensus” is so near unanimous as asserted, then they should have no trouble making their case. It should be a slam dunk for them. But it won’t be — and they know it. That’s what has the militant climateers terrified. The key word they fear in the Koonin proposal is an “open” adversarial process.

Some of the biggest guns in the climateer arsenal are shooting themselves in the collective foot, as they compete to denounce the Red Team-Blue Team plan in the harshest terms. Michael Mann, the Penn State activist-scientist notorious for the Hockey Stick fraud used in Al Gore’s flim-flam film An Inconvenient Truth, as well as in UN IPCC and U.S. government agency reports, has declared the Koonin proposal to be “un-American.” AGW militants Benjamin Santer, Naomi Oreskes, and Kerry Emanuel co-authored a Washington Post rant calling the idea “dangerous.” Others are insisting it would be redundant, wasteful, and a sellout to the fossil-fuel industry.

“They’re looking to use taxpayer funds to run a pro-fossil fuel industry disinformation campaign aimed at confusing the public and policymakers over what is potentially the greatest threat we face as a civilization,” Mann told the left-wing group ThinkProgress, a “project” of the Soros-funded Center for American Progress led by John Podesta. “It is frankly un-American,” Mann declared.

Un-American? Well, considering that the cost of the UN-brokered, Obama-approved, media-acclaimed Paris climate deal would come in at around $100 trillion over the course of this century, all for the astoundingly minuscule “accomplishment” of reducing global temperatures by 0.057 degrees Fahrenheit (that’s five-hundredths of a degree!), and considering that much of this will come from American taxpayer funds, perhaps it should be considered un-American not to challenge such outrageously profligate schemes. Especially since the alarmists, such as former UN climate chief Christina Figueres, a globalist-socialist, have boasted that their goal is nothing less than “a complete transformation of the economic structure of the world.” And not only an economic transformation. There is an additional, more onerous price tag: subjection of all human activity to a global, all-wise bureaucracy that will direct all aspects of our lives in a “sustainable” manner, and protect us from our own carbon footprints.

But Santer, Oreskes, Mann, and company would prefer to direct our attention away from all that. According to Michael Mann, the back-and-forth process Dr. Koonin and others are calling for is already taken care of: It’s called “peer-review.” “The system they describe is precisely what scientific peer-review is,” Mann told ThinkProgress. “The reality is that the only thing these folks don’t like is the conclusion that the scientific community (that is, the world’s scientists, literally) has arrived at — that climate change is real, human-caused, and a threat.”

Santer, Oreskes, and Emanuel sounded a similar refrain in their Post op-ed, writing that “calls for special teams of investigators are not about honest scientific debate. They are dangerous attempts to elevate the status of minority opinions, and to undercut the legitimacy, objectivity and transparency of existing climate science.”

Peer Review or Pal Review?
The Santer-Oreskes-Emanuel trio claim that the Koonin proposal would inject ugly “tribalism” into the pure and pristine process of climate science. They argue:

The basic premise of these “Red Team/Blue Team” requests is that climate science is broken and needs to be fixed. The implicit message in the requests is that scientists belong to tribes, and key findings of climate science — such as the existence of a large human-caused warming signal — have not undergone adequate review by all tribes. This tribalism could be addressed, Koonin believes, by emulating Red Team/Blue Team assessment strategies in “intelligence assessments, spacecraft design, and major industrial operations.”

They continue:

In Koonin’s view, “traditional” peer-review processes are flawed and lack transparency, and international scientific assessments do not accurately represent “the vibrant and developing science.” He implicitly accuses the climate science community of “advisory malpractice” by ignoring major sources of uncertainty. To use present-day vernacular, both Koonin and Pruitt are essentially claiming that peer-review systems are rigged and that climate scientists are not providing sound scientific information to policymakers.

“Heresy” Causes “High Priestess” to Be “Tossed Out of the Tribe”

But, Dr. Koonin is far from the only scientist “essentially claiming that peer-review systems are rigged,” that they’ve already gone “tribal.” Ask other scientists, such as Dr. Patrick MichaelsDr. John BatesDr. Chris LandseaDr. Benny PeiserProfessor Dennis BrayDr. Roy Spencer, or any of hundreds of other scientists who have seen and experienced the rigging and the tribalism up close and personal.

Ask (by all means) Dr. Judith Curry. Once considered the “high priestess of global warming,” she says she was “tossed out of the tribe” for questioning AGW dogma, as enforced by the likes of Santer, Oreskes, and Emanuel. The former chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Professor Curry has a record of publication in peer-reviewed climate science journals that is second to none. For years she was a darling of the climate-industrial-academic complex. However, the “Climategate” e-mail scandal at the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Center (UEA-CRU) caused her to look more deeply into what had obviously become a blatantly corrupt, politically driven “scientific” system.

The British paper, The Spectator, wrote of her, in a 2015 article:

Curry’s independence has cost her dear. She began to be reviled after the 2009 “Climategate” scandal, when leaked emails revealed that some scientists were fighting to suppress sceptical views. “I started saying that scientists should be more accountable, and I began to engage with sceptic bloggers. I thought that would calm the waters. Instead I was tossed out of the tribe. There’s no way I would have done this if I hadn’t been a tenured professor, fairly near the end of my career. If I were seeking a new job in the US academy, I’d be pretty much unemployable. I can still publish in the peer-reviewed journals. But there’s no way I could get a government research grant to do the research I want to do. Since then, I’ve stopped judging my career by these metrics. I’m doing what I do to stand up for science and to do the right thing.”

Michael Mann called Judith Curry “anti-science,” but, considering the source, she is undaunted by insult. “It’s unfortunate, but he calls anyone who doesn’t agree with him a denier,” she told the Spectator.

The UEA-CRU e-mails include infamous exchanges involving Phil Jones, Michael Mann, and other leading lights of the AGW establishment conspiring on how to keep skeptical scientists from getting published in scientific journals, as well as scheming on how to get editors fired who refused to censor dissident scientists. UEA-CRU chief Phil Jones, for instance, discussed suppressing scientific articles he did not like: “I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow — even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!”

The “Kevin” whom Jones refers to is Dr. Kevin Trenberth, one of the vicious pseudo-scientists who signed a letter to President Obama, calling on him to prosecute and imprison climate skeptics whom they label as “deniers.” Trenberth is one of the “consensus enforcers” Dr. Curry calls out in a recent entry on her blog, “Climate Etc.”

Curry remarks that, in a recent congressional hearing, climate zealot Senator Al Franken repeatedly asked Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke if he could “tell me how much warming government scientists predict for the end of this century under a business-as-usual scenario?”  Zinke stated: “I don’t think government scientists can predict with certainty.” “There isn’t a model that exists today that can predict today’s weather given all the data,” Zinke said.

Kevin Trenberth, a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, jumped into the fray, calling Zinke’s explanation “a stupid and ignorant answer.” Trenberth’s insulting comment was given widespread favorable media coverage, naturally, as a supposed smack-down of dim-witted “deniers” by a reputed authoritative voice of science.

But Curry smacks down the smug would-be smacker, observing: “Zinke’s statement is true.  Trenberth is a scientific bully/thug for calling Zinke’s answer stupid and ignorant, especially when both Trenberth and [NASA’s Gavin] Schmidt basically admit that the models can’t predict the future.”

    It doesn’t take a Vegas card shark to spot this Titanic-sized tell. If the eco-left was holding aces their response would be “BRING IT ON!” when asked to ante-up with debate.

    Now their hand has been called and suddenly they want to change the poker game to Go Fish.

    The problem with a debate is who will do the fact checking. Peer reviewed science is strongly fact checked. I have been a peer reviewer for over 1200 manuscripts over 30 years. The Heartland Institute which is supposedly a source of recruited “experts” has a long record of lying and disinformation. First on the dangers of tobacco and now on climate.

      So the unbiased solution is to have fact checkers who themselves likely rely upon outcome-predicated MMGCC grants for a living? We should rely on checkers who are steeped in the same isolated self-talk and academic/political environment as those promoting this scientific meme?

      The data base itself is so corrupted by fundamental and systemic bias bought with politically-directed funding that the entire thing has become a farce.

      This proves the very bias that this thing relies upon. The eco-left’s plan is to first eliminate as much true debate as possible, and then limit what debate survives to their own back rooms with their own set of rules. Never trust people to discern information that has not first passed multiple propaganda filters…

      As a scientist myself, I am saddened at how much true science has been corrupted by politics and money, especially in the field of Climate Science.

        .
        Atmospheric CO2 levels are measured at hundreds of monitoring stations across the globe.
        Independent measurements are also conducted by airplanes and satellites.
        For periods before 1958, CO2 levels are determined from air bubbles trapped in polar ice cores.
        In pre-industrial times over the last 10,000 years, CO2 was relatively stable at around 225 to 285 parts per million.
        .
        Over the last 250 years, atmospheric CO2 levels have increased by OVER 110 parts per million.
        Currently, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing by around 15 gigatonnes every year.
        .
        ( Instead of 225-285PPM, as it has been for 1,000’s upon 1,000’s of years, today we are NOW   ‘OVER’   411PPM ! )
        Humans have never existed during a time when CO2 or Methane have been this HIGH.
        We have no IDEA what this experiment with HIGHER Atmospheric Gases may have on Humans or life itself.

        While atmospheric CO2 levels are usually expressed in parts per million,
        here they are displayed as the amount of CO2 residing in the atmosphere in gigatonnes.
        CO2 emissions includes fossil fuel emissions, cement production and emissions from gas flaring.

          Show us your QUANTITATIVE experimentally verifiable equations so we can determine the magnitude of the minor change in our radiative balance with the Sun by our small changes in the already highly saturated spectrum of CO2 .

          And show us ANY equations or demonstrations of how some spectral phenomenon asymmetrically “traps” heat causing the bottoms of atmospheres to be hotter than those radiative balance computations .

          You can’t . They don’t exist . It’s a willfully ignorant to the point of ant-science FRAUD as much as claiming the invention of a perpetual heat engine .

    The true scientific process is one of continued discussion. This works well on getting closer to the truth. The trouble with the climate change issue, is that it is political movement based on fraudulent science. The so called researchers know this. They have modified data to fit the theory, rather than follow the scientific process of modifying the theory to fit the data. They ignore data that doesn’t support their conclusions, and in other cases come to conclusion not justified by the data. The researchers know that red teams would expose these practices. They are justified in panicking at the prospect of a real debate.

    Scientists do one major mistake. They assume that act of measurement does not affect the object which is measured. In fact measurement creates an object. There is no such thing as common view. Everyone sees through his own eyes. Everyone lives in his own universe. If we want to mitigate extreme weather we should do this from the perspective of each man made object. We know that any substance heats up when the number of waves in the substance increase. And today we produce lots of artificial waves. Every concept and every act of measurement creates a wave. And all our concepts and constants are derived from our planet. We have to introduce new constant to lift heat into space towards the moon and push cold to the poles and create perfect weather for all.

    Since this OP is addressing consensus in science, this must be opened again:

    “I want to pause here and talk about this notion of consensus, and the rise of what has been called consensus science. I regard consensus science as an extremely pernicious development that ought to be stopped cold in its tracks. Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled. Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you’re being had.
    “Let’s be clear: the work of science has nothing whatever to do with consensus. Consensus is the business of politics. Science, on the contrary, requires only one investigator who happens to be right, which means that he or she has results that are verifiable by reference to the real world. In science consensus is irrelevant. What is relevant is reproducible results. The greatest scientists in history are great precisely because they broke with the consensus.
    “There is no such thing as consensus science. If it’s consensus, it isn’t science. If it’s science, it isn’t consensus. Period.”
    “… Finally, I would remind you to notice where the claim of consensus is invoked. Consensus is invoked only in situations where the science is not solid enough. Nobody says the consensus of scientists agrees that E = mc². Nobody says the consensus is that the sun is 93 million miles away. It would never occur to anyone to speak that way.”

      I’m reading Mark Steyn’s “A DISGRACE TO THE PROFESSION” (volume 1). Over 100 REAL scientists are quoted denigrating Michael Mann’s methods . The c.v.’s of some of these scientists are a paragraph in length. Some of then believe in global warming. None of them are fans of Mann. The book is a condemnation of psychopathic science.

    James Hansen should have been laughed out of the room for flunking undergraduate radiant heat transfer for claiming with neither quantitative equation nor experimental demonstration that Venus’s extreme surface temperature , 2.25 times that of a gray ball in its orbit , much less it much lower radiative equilibrium given its extreme reflectivity in the peak solar wavelengths , was due to some spectral “Green House” effect .

    A review of the quantitative experimentally testable foundational physical theory must be included in any dispositive debate .The retardation of this field being treated like a measurement and statistics social science instead of the branch of applied physics that it is has cost a generation .
