Nobody is Debating Anymore

Ha HA, you global warming contrarians, put this in your pipes and smoke it! An article in the NYT Science section this morning alerts us to three papers published in the journal Science, the online version. They won't be in the actual print mag for a week or two. Here's the NYT article: Errors Cited in Assessing Climate Data. The work of two scientists, upon which some of the denial of the imminence of global warming has been based, was re-examined by Carl A. Mears and Frank J. Wentz, scientists at Remote Sensing Systems, a company in Santa Rosa, Calif., that does satellite data analysis for NASA. Their work found several different errors and flaws in the previous work, bringing the current state of the science to this conclusion:

"Things being debated now are details about the models," said Steven Sherwood, the lead author of the paper on the balloon data and an atmospheric physicist at Yale. "Nobody is debating any more that significant climate changes are coming."

Imagine that.
