Speakers include Judith Curry and Peter Webster.
More On The BEST, NCDC, CRU and GISS Analyses Of Multi-Decadal Land Surface Temperature Trends | Climate Science: Roger Pielke Sr.
However, if one or more of the temperature measures do depend on siting quality, it is also game changer as this would confirm a significant bias in the use of poorly sited land surface temperatures in the construction of gridded and larger scale (global) average surface minimum, maximum and/or mean temperature anomalies. This would be a conclusion that BEST, NCDC, GISS and CRU would undoubtedly test. This how science should be done. Up to the present, however, the BEST, NCDC, GISS and CRU research groups have incompletely examined these issues.
Criminal Activity – The New Normal | Real Science
Gleick became a hero of the global warming movement by lying and cheating, and Muller is following in his footsteps.

Muller has been telling us for years that global warming is the most serious problem mankind faces, and now he is getting publicity for his daughter’s business by claiming to be a converted former skeptic. He even lied to me about it in a personal E-mail.

The press willfully ignores all evidence to the contrary, and chooses instead to be complicit in Muller’s fraud.
Historical Ice Information Is Worthless | Real Science
Cryosphere Today has this graph on their website, purporting to show accelerating ice loss since 1900. It appears entertaining, except for the fact that the data is garbage.
...
Note the two circles which I drew for 1974 and 1979. It appears there was a lot less ice in 1979 than 1974. Sadly for the data fabricators, we have satellite data from that period (which NSIDC chooses to ignore) that shows that there was a lot more Arctic ice in 1979 than 1974.
