Stunning: NASA GISS Admits No Evidence of AGW In The US, Won’t Be For Decades!
It is amazing what you find when you pull back the PR spin from public facade of the AGW crowd and they become honest about the global warming canard. In my previous post I discovered Jim Hansen of NASA GISS noting the US temperature data is so noisy (yet it is the most accurate, most measured in the world) that you cannot pull any conclusions from it, and basically the 1930’s and 2000’s are statistically the same temperature!
I thought that was a pretty stunning admission. Until I read further into the email trail up and Judicial Watch (page 71 of 215) and discovered this from August 15, 2007 (click to enlarge)
The email is from Reto Ruedy at GISS, one of Hansen’s top analysts. It is a headline worthy admission. There is no evidence of CO2 driven global warming in any of the US temp data – even though we are accused of being the CO2 generating capitol of the world. What’s more, they do not expect to see any evidence of AGW in the US for 2-4 more decades! I think we could afford to wait a little longer to see if this theory holds up.
And yet, without ANY evidence of AGW active in the US, Americans are supposed to cripple our economy and shell out billions in tax dollars? How could AGW be evident everywhere else but not here in the great CO2 producing center of all human kind? These “NASA” scientists are admitting they have never yet measured any global warming in the US outside natural causes.
Stop the Presses!

AJ,
Didn’t GISS just this week say that the southern hemisphere experienced the hottest year ever in 2009?
I guess if they can’t find it here then…. : )
[…] of emails from NASA GISS, which openly admit (to the brain dead press no less) there is NO SIGN of global warming in the United States of America. None. The best these alarmists can claim is it should show up in 20-40 years! It is not here now, […]
There is no evidence of CO2 driven global warming in any of the US temp data …
You mean an [old] model underestimates the warming observed in the U.S.: “The annual U.S. mean changes are still large compared to any CO2 effect.”
It says later:
“And sadly, the global (not the U.S.) data now available showed that the model, if anything, was underestimating the effect.”
No data set by itself will show CO2 warming, just warming, period. The various models predict a certain effect which is matched with the observed results. If the results are bigger than predicted, this may mean the [old] model needs tweaking, but this is not evidence of no CO2 effect.
What’s more, they do not expect to see any evidence of AGW in the US for 2-4 more decades!
They would have (in the global data, not U.S. data), with the old model. That they’re seeing something now is not evidence of no effect.
Cheers,
[…] here – global or otherwise. Which is probably why NASA GISS has been telling the news media there is no sign of global warming in the US and it will not show up (if it ever does) for 3-4 decades to […]
[…] My, my – unsettled science. Whodathunkit! And Jones admits this is a global warm period, not isolated to only some regions (like today’s warming, which is not really global and has not been detected in North America). […]
[…] noting US action alone will not impact CO2 levels. But moreover, NASA GISS is on record noting that THERE IS NO AGW detected in America. If the Dems and EPA are going to use US government agencies as their guidance, then they better […]
