Observed Climate Change and the Negligible Global Effect of Greenhouse-gas Emission Limits in the State of Massachusetts | Climate Realists

In this report, we review the long-term climate history of Massachusetts and find little in the way of evidence that the greenhouse gas build-up in the atmosphere has much-altered Massachusetts’ climate. While statewide average temperatures have generally risen in Massachusetts over the past 115 years, they have, in fact, changed little over the past 75 years. Massachusetts precipitation and drought histories since the end of the 19th century are marked by annual and decadal variability atop an overall increase in total annual precipitation and decrease in the incidence of drought.

Rear Mirror: The EPA vs. Ed Krug over the Acid Rain Scare | The SPPI Blog

The EPA’s performance on acid rain–and how it dealt with a respected scientist who told the truth–is not comforting when one considers how important the federal government now is in funding scientific research and how politicized current environmental issues such as global warming and depletion of the earth’s ozone layer have become. One NAPAP scientist, who for obvious reasons wishes to remain anonymous, warns that in the future the EPA will not go through the pretense of research and debate: “There is no NAPAP for global warming.”
