In fact, the group serves as little more than a mouthpiece for Big Carbon and the modern Republican Party which, largely thanks to Citizens United in 2010, now eschews
the use of actual science in the public sphere.

There are more stories out

Of course I'm talking about actual science... not that christian science and creation «science»... which use scientific sounding things and jump to ridiculous unjustifyable conlusions, or that create incorrect premises and then make up answers to suit the question

Could it be that the two sides are more like each other than we care to admit??? LOL, why didn't they put the money they
used to put up the billboard to prove without a shadow
of a doubt that it is a myth and nothing in the bible
actual happened since it's all about reason and
science so we can put all the speculation to bed.
AIS data have important applications in conservation
science including describing baseline vessel
use of a maritime area, assessing or modeling
actual or potential environmental impacts, and monitoring environmental compliance.
Lisa Castaneda's Forget Aperture, This is My Test Chamber — Data and Statistics Final Project is a great example
of how teachers can
use this powerful game - based learning tool to engage students in the
actual doing
of math and
science.
Each
of the sample tests Edinformatics designed,
use actual questions from the TIMSS (Third International Math and
Science Survey).
[9] Among their concerns, are the
use of potential rather than
actual impacts, and the validity
of the underlying
science — as well as the overall lack
of rigor involved in developing such estimates.
Versus the typical climate
science example where they don't
use any
actual data — they just make it up and ignore the
actual data, or they
use some climate model simulation
of a fantasy climate.
There is a disconnect between Idso's defense and Doney's offense which was itself very measured in its
use of language and imminence, so it looks like posting Idso somewhat misses the target
of the
actual debate within the
science.
The
actual history
of this subject is far worse than I thought, to
use a «Climate
Science» term
of art.
However from what I have read and what I have seen, much
of the
actual science seems to be flawed, and is heavily weighted on assumptions which are in turn based on assumptions, based on sketchy data, in which much
of the methods
used are questionable.
«I am afraid there are people who want to stop the economic growth, the rise in the standard
of living (though not their own) and the ability
of man to
use the expanding wealth,
science and technology for solving the
actual pressing problems
of mankind, especially
of the developing countries.»
Since this is 7Watts / m ^ 2 higher than the
actual measured average and is more than a full Watt / m ^ 2 higher than any value measured in the past 31 years, if one were to criticize someone for violating
science protocol it would not be Roy Spencer whose basic data and computations are readily available for scrutiny by anyone who whishes to do so; it is Trenberth for
using contrived values for OLR in his energy balance computations instead
of using actual physical data measured directly by satellites.
The primary goal
of the EdGCM (Educational Global Climate Model) Project is to enhance the quality
of climate - change
science teaching and learning at the high school level through broader access to
actual GCMs, and to assist teachers by providing the appropriate technology, materials and support to
use these research - quality climate models effectively in the classroom.
It has been
used before to undermine the
actual sound
science being
used to inform public policy, which is my area
of study.
«It would seem that Richard Muller has served as a useful foil for the Koch Brothers, allowing them to claim they have funded a real scientist looking into the basic
science, while that scientist — Muller — props himself up by
using the «Berkeley» imprimatur (U.C. Berkeley has not in any way sanctioned this effort) and appearing to accept the basic
science, and goes out on the talk circuit, writing Op - Eds, etc. systematically downplaying the
actual state
of the
science, dismissing key climate - change impacts and denying the degree
of risk that climate change actually represents.
Presenting such alternative figures confuses and undermines the public understanding
of the
actual science, which is an understanding about the driving mechanisms
of sea level rise: thermal expansion
of ocean water, melting
of mountain glaciers and complex dynamics
of large ice sheets — in correspondence again with projected temperature rise, that is in turn a product
of projected rises
of greenhouse gas concentrations
using calculated estimates
of climate sensitivity, together creating a net disturbance in Earth's energy balance, the very root cause
of anthropogenic climate change.
And that's illustrated if you compare how «
science - based» and «
science - denier» blogs discuss right about any climate - related topic, from
actual atmospheric temperature development to its physical manifestations, like sea level rise (see the chart in the middle
of this piece) and social and ecological consequences
of climate change — including at some point the fate
of iconic mammal species that
use sea ice as hunting grounds.
I can not imagine any
science PhD (outside
of the social «
sciences,» anyway) every claiming that eyeballing noisy data was as good as (or maybe better than)
actual data analysis
using statistics.
I guess I'd add that this is understandable, given that the denier camp really doesn't have much
actual science to use as ammunition or to build their arguments on, and thus they tend to wage their campaign by cherrypicking data, or seeking to attack narrow and often out - of - context passages found in scientific papers or in simplified postings about those papers found on sites like Skeptical S

An example
of this in the climate change war is the
use of temperature which is a poor metric for the
actual science which requires enthalpy; or such a claim automatically has assumptions, stated or not, that can be challenged.
This may be totally off, since I know squat about climate
science & the high - powered statistical programs
used, but when there is a dearth
of data in the social
sciences (not enough to give low enough p values on correlations & regressions, simply due to small numbers
of data, which is sometimes due to loading in too many control variables), we sometimes turn to chi - square & log - linear analysis to see if
actual data reveal patterns incongruent with expected patterns.
Furthermore the concept
of atmospheric heat engine is not ofter
used directly in
actual science as far as know, it's rather a way
used to help understanding one important aspect
of the Earth system.
So its going to turn into an area where any true discussion based on the
science of the specific aspect — ice free Artic, sea level rise (when, where and how much)-- will be missing and any chance
of actual education will be gone if the standard «opponents» get
used in the discussions and they stick to their standard behaviors when discussing anything to do with climate change.
It's striking in this context to recall that, only 20 years ago, the phrase «
Science Wars» was used in relation to generally leftish postmodernists in the humanities, who were seen as rejecting science and / or promoting pseudoscience (while some of this stuff was rather silly, there's no evidence that it ever did any actual harm to sc
