A deeply flawed climate study

Responding to the government report, ClimateDepot.com, my favorite website with links to knowledgeable and skeptical scientists, notes:

The National Climate Assessment report as reviewed by the National Academy of Sciences, is basing one of its headline scare scenario(s) on a study funded by climate activist billionaire Tom Steyer. Climate expert Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. noted on November 24 that the claim of economic damage from climate change is based on a 15 degree F temperature increase that is double the ‘most extreme value reported elsewhere in the report.’ The ‘sole editor’ of this claim in the report was an alum of the Center for American Progress, which is also funded by Tom Steyer.

Climatologist Pat Michaels calls the government report “systematically flawed” and says it “should be shelved.”

Climate Depot founder Marc Morano says of the government report:

It is a political report masquerading as science. The media is hyping a rehash of frightening climate change claims by Obama administration holdover activist government scientists. The new report is once again predetermined science. The National Climate Assessment report reads like a press release from environmental pressure groups—because it is! Two key authors are longtime Union of Concerned Scientist activists, Donald Wuebbles and Katharine Hayhoe.

The Trump administration has promised to issue its own report that will include “more transparent and data-driven information.”

These people have a history of making projections that have not been met.  When that happens it is because some of the underlying assumptions are invalid.  Their problem is that they cannot which ones are wrong.
