(Updated Oct. 23, 2019) Retired Principal Scientific Officer (PSO) for the British Government exposes “discrepancies” in NASA’s Global Historical Climate Network (GHCN) which serve to make recent temperatures seem warmer.
The “mistakes” point to possible fraud intended to give scientific credence to tax-raising UK and US climate policies.
The unnamed source, now retired from the UK Scientific Civil Service and speaking exclusively to Principia Scientific International (PSI), was so disturbed by the “tampering” of government temperature records that he performed his own verification tests and exposed a shocking anomaly that turns the global warming narrative on its head.
The highly qualified whistleblower reveals that he downloaded the raw station data from NASA/GISS gridded land anomaly products and compared them with the anomalies.
He told PSI:
“Having processed NASA GISS 250km T2m and 1200Km T2m global land anomaly data products I also processed Global Historical Climate Network (GHCN) daily mean temperature records from the 1,045 stations that have been continuously operative since 1900.
“Since these 1,045 stations form the backbone of the historical world meteorological network, and therefore NASA GISS products, we may expect results to be largely similar, though with the inflated variance within the GHCN-D data series (GISS anomalies are highly processed products). Not addressed in this study is the urban heat island effect which is known to contaminate the land-based record.
“Prior to 1970 there is an inexplicable divergence in that NASA GISS products show historic global land temperatures to have been cooler than those recorded by the 1,045 GHCN-D stations; this difference is most pronounced around 1930 when extreme heatwaves were experienced across the continental US and in other parts of the world (a fact recorded in newspapers of the day).
“The extremes of the 1930s/40s down to the cooler 1960s/70s prompted scientific discussion of a pending ice age.”
The retired top government scientist laments that he is old enough to remember the wild media scaremongering of the 1970’s global cooling.
He spoke of how the very same scientists and government bodies that were warning of an impending Ice Age in the seventies are the very same tax-zealous advocates hyping global warming today.
At this stage, the evidence may support skeptic claims that governments have an agenda to promote climate scaremongering.
Unlike the seventies, the only difference this time is the narrative is all about global warming, not the threat of an imminent ice age.
Our insider source reveals that global land temperature anomalies estimated as high as 1.23°C today were actually occurring routinely as far back as 1934. These temperatures were only surpassed again in 2015.
Persuaded by the raw data he examined, the former top UK government expert is adamant there is nothing abnormal about recent global temperatures.
GHCN-D data were used to identify discrepancies in NASA’s GISS gridded anomaly products; he affirms he’s found nothing amiss with the GHCN-D dataset.
He told me:
“I thus decided to run a few statistical procedures to highlight the improbability of these differences arising by chance. (slide #1)
“The period 1914 – 2018 was divided into seven 15-year periods and a difference series derived from NASA GISS 250km T2m and the GHCN-D Tavg 1,045 station series.
“Whilst a fair degree of variation between the two series is to be expected the differenced series should theoretically manifest itself as a normally or near-normally distributed variable with an overall mean value of zero or near-zero.”
“Slide #2 is a snapshot of a repeated one sample t-test for each of the seven-year periods in which the mean value of the differenced series is tested against the null hypothesis.
“Only periods 1974- 1988 and 1989-2003 can be considered free of systematic bias with p-values of p=0.593 and p=0.070 respectively. Bias for the earliest three periods is particularly pronounced, where we may note inexplicable cooling of the NASA gridded product by as much as 0.612°C (1929-1943, p<0.001).
“We may also note an inexplicably warmer present than expected, with a bias of 0.317°C creeping into NASA gridded product for the period 2004-2018 (p=0.029).”
The pattern of bias over the seven data periods prompted the retired top UK scientist to produce slide #3, this being a time series plot of the differenced series for 1900 – 2018.
The whistleblower adds:
“There is no way that simple estimation error is going to produce a slope like this: we should see data points randomly scattered about the zero value of the y-axis.
“In this chart, the dark red line is an OLSR whose slope estimate was calculated at +0.1°C per decade (p<0.001), and the black line is an Epanechnikov (50%) smoothing function to guide the eye.
“Fitted values for the OLSR trendline reveal that between 1900 and 2018 NASA has somehow systematically and inexplicably added +1.16°C to their 250 T2m global land anomaly gridded product when compared to GHCN-D data based on a sample of 1,045 stations.
“I cannot as yet explain this and encourage statistically- minded climate enthusiasts to pull down data and confirm this extraordinary finding for themselves.”
Having studied the whistleblower’s calculations it is very evident they have a striking similarity to those of noted American climate skeptic, Tony Heller.
Many alarmists have criticized Tony Heller for either ‘cherry-picking’, misunderstanding the data he’s using, or deliberately tampering with data himself to produce his graphs and charts.
This independent verification of his work is, I would venture, rather important, showing past recorded temperatures are indeed being lowered, and present ones raised, just as Tony Heller has illustrated.
It’s difficult not to conclude we are looking at deliberate scientific fraud that accounts for most of the global warming claimed by the IPCC
Growing concerns are that ‘secret science’ used routinely by government-funded researchers may be the cover for unethical manipulation of the global temperature record.
This is the strongly-held view of renowned Canadian skeptic climatologist, Dr. Tim Ball after his epic court victory of over UN IPCC Lead scientist Dr. Michael E Mann.
Mann is now being investigated for further legal action. Principia Scientific International is currently lobbying for a full RICO investigation into this mounting evidence of government climate fraud.

Guys, weather weapons exist since the 50’s, ask yourselves why corrupt politicians, scientists, professors and the media are hiding this undeniable historical fact! I keep asking loads of indoctrinated deluded ‘extinction rebellion’ sheeple why do they think the mass media reports this agenda daily, but they all seem to not be able to use their own brains!
Senator Claiborne Pell, Senate Intelligence Committee USA/USSR, 1978:
– “Now that we control the weather, create earthquakes and tidal waves and, use it as a weapon of war, we do not need a treaty.”
William Cohen, former secretary of defense of the Clinton Administration, “Conference on Terrorism, Weapons of Mass Destruction and US Strategy”, 1977:
– “Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set of earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves…so there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations…It’s real, and that’s the reason why we have to intensify our efforts [counter-terrorism].”
Zbigniew Brzezinsky, Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor, quoted by Chossudovsky, “The Elephant in the Room at Copenhagen: Washington’s New World Order Weapons Have the ability to trigger climate change”:
– “The emerging techniques of weather modification could be employed to produce prolonged periods of drought or storm.”
James Schlesinger, US Secretary of Defence informing ‘the Pell Committee”, 1974:
– “There is reason to argue for the use of localized weather modification where possible, as a humane replacement for modern weaponry.” – (so instead of killing people with weapons, freak ‘natural disasters’ are created)
United Nations, “Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques”, Convention May 1977, Geneva, Article 2:
– “It is the understanding of the Committee that the following examples are illustrative of phenomena that could be caused by the use of environmental modification techniques as defined in Article II of the Convention: earthquakes, tsunamis; an upset in the ecological balance of a region; changes in weather patterns (clouds, precipitation, cyclones of various types and tornadic storms); changes in climate patterns; changes in ocean currents; changes in the state of the ozone layer and changes in the state of the ionosphere.” – (so here we see that it’s not our CO2 emissions which are damaging the ozone layer – it’s chemtrails and Haarp)
– “The term ‘environmental modification techniques’ refer to any technique for changing – through the deliberate manipulation of natural processes – the dynamics, composition or structure of the earth, including its biota, lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere, or of outer space.”
Prof. Michel Chossudovsky, economist, “The Elephant in the Room at Copenhagen: Washington’s New World Order Weapons Have the ability to trigger climate change:
-”The US Air Force has the capability of manipulating climate either for testing purposes or for outright military-intelligence use. These capabilities extend to the triggering of floods, hurricanes, droughts and earthquakes. In recent years, large amounts of money have been allocated by the US Department of Defense to further developing these capabilities. Ironically, the Pentagon, while recognizing its ability to modify the world’s climate for military use, has joined the global warming consensus.”
US Air Force Document, “AF 2025 Final Report”:
– “Weather modification offers the war fighter a wide range of possible options to defeat or coerce an adversary and, extend to the triggering of floods, hurricanes, droughts and earthquakes. Weather modification will become a part of domestic and international security and could be done unilaterally…It could have defensive and offensive applications and even be used for deterrence purposes. The ability to generate precipitation, fog, and storms on earth to modify space weather,…and the production of artificial weather all are a part of an integrated set of technologies which can provide substantial increase in us, or degraded capability in an adversary, to achieve global awareness, reach and power.”
International Committee of the Red Cross, “Conference of Government Experts on the Use of Certain Conventional Weapons”, Lucerne, Geneva, 18th October, 1974:
– “The expert who put forward the subject of geophysical warfare for consideration stated that it included such activities as the modification of weather or climate and the causing of earthquakes. He stated that man already possessed the ability to bring about on a limited scale certain geophysical changes for which military applications were conceivable. In his view these would inevitable be indiscriminate, and could give rise to unforeseeable environmental changes of prolonged duration.”
I do beleive it was that fake Scientists James Hansen who got NASA into this Global Warming/Climate Change scam and now their tampering with t he Data and holding a lit match under the themometer its time NASA had some cleaning up done
What do McKitrick, McIntyre or Heller make of it? I know we should all run our own checks but without either identifying the source or someone recognised who corroborates the data it’s a nothingburger
I believe the 30s was hotter than today but without a named source, it can’t be taken seriously. If the guy’s retired, he doesn’t have to worry about his career so why not come forward?
Why is it we only hear from these people when they are retired ?
Many didn’t mind being bought when they were working for some branch of government . !0’s of thousands of people have lost their lives prematurely from fuel poverty because people cooked the books .
The people at NASA who pulled this fraud should be jailed for life .
A RICO investigation is a start but this fraud was international so others have done the same thing . My bet is it comes down to less than 10 people working together . Man ….it won’t be hard to find out who will it ?
Sorry for the typo… McKitrick and McIntyre
Once again, proof that historical temperature data gets butchered, then cooked by crooked climatologists. You’d think that the public should have been informed of this fraudulent practice years ago, when it was pinned on Michael Mann by McKitrick and McKitrick.
The MSM know the purpose of this scam , carbon taxes to fund socialism. Stephen Harper said as much in the ’90’s, calling it a money sucking socialist scheme.
A RICO investigation is appropriate, but the current Congress won’t touch it with a 10-foot pole.
…or two 5 foot Hungarians.
