Media Matters Continues To Cite Debunked and Discredited Global Warming Studies
We have already shown, in this post, that Media Matters has cited two bogus scientific studies to bolster their fallacious claim that there is a "consensus" on global warming. However, that has not stopped them in this August 1, 2006, post from referring to these sources again to propagate this falsehood!
Honesty, anyone?
The two studies, a 2001 National Academy of Sciences (NAS) report and a 2001 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, have been flat-out discredited. For information on how they have been debunked, read this, this, and this.
The 2001 IPCC study, "has been thoroughly discredited by scientists on both sides of the debate," (emphasis mine):
"Facts and science are showing that the catastrophic global warming consensus doesn’t exist. The IPCC has been exposed as a political arm of UN’s Kyoto Protocol, with a mission to prop up its flawed scientific conclusions.
"The Mann hockey stick, the flagship of the IPCC’s claims that global warming is real, has now been thoroughly discredited in scientific circles."
Media Matters is deceiving its readers, but now you know the truth!
