Short recap from Session 2 — The Climate Scam
Craig Loehle: There is a divergence problem with the tree ring data and the temperature records. Perhaps trees respond more to precipitation than temperature changes? Assuming linear growth response is wrong.

Also, oceans have been cooling since 2003, according to ARG temperature data down to 700 m. Craig Loehle published this paper in Energy & Environment, since both Science and Nature instantly turned the paper down.

o In 24 of the 50 states, the all-time high temperatures occurred in the 1930s.

o For Des Moines, Iowa, for the record June and July high temperatures, 33 of 61 occurred in the 1930s.

o In 2008, there were 266 days with no sunspots.

o The notion that ice cores represent “instant canning” of air is badly flawed - just in general (as snow settles and is compressed, the air is squeezed out) and in the handling of those cores.

o The EUniks have (off-the-record) told grant applicants that their main interest in environmentally-related topics is that they “want science that supports environmental taxes.”
