Failing the Acid Test – Jane Lubchenco | JunkScience.com
In the whole panoply of distortion and disinformation surrounding the claims of global warming, few can be more dishonest than the claims of Ocean Acidification. Head of NOAA, Jane Lubchenco, is currently on the Australian circuit to try and convince people that the new Carbon tax is valid and necessary to save the planet and of course, as it’s Australia, to save the Great Barrier Reef from extinction. Ocean acidification first saw the light of day in 2003 and found its way into AR4. It is now embedded in AR5, based on the shakiest of science.
Read on, to find out how the claim of a “30% increase in ocean acidity since the industrial revolution” came into being and check out the NOAA video, where Jane Lubchenco tries to fool the public with “The Vinegar Trick” and a piece of chalk.

Dr Lubchenco says we're no longer at the point of questioning the science. We're now asking how we fight it & how we adapt to what's coming

Dr Lubchenco says scientists should be rewarded for communication. They're loath to tell stories- but that's how you reach people

Flashback: Jane Lubchenco says "At NOAA, all we are doing is providing the data"
''At NOAA, all we are doing is providing the data,'
Miller said global sea level rose following the last Ice Age, but from then until 1850, the rate of sea level rise has been negligible, from nothing to .6 millimeters per year. In the 20th century, Miller said, the rise was about 1.8 millimeters per year (about 7 inches per century). Since 2000, the sea level has risen at 3.3 millimeters a year (about a foot per century). With temperatures expected to rise by 3 to 8°F this century, the rate of rise is expected to increase.
Miller expects global sea level to rise 80 centimeters (about 2.4 feet) by the end of the century
