I know I have blogged about this subject before, most importantly here, here, here, here, here, here and here. However I make no apology for doing so again; the fact is that the reported earth temperature is only increasing due to the adjustments made by various agencies.
The Climate Skeptic has a very detailed article about this matter, with three easy to read and understand graphs. If you want a commentary on the Climate Skeptic article then I can recommend Devils Kitchen post.
There is also a link at Devils Kitchen to a site that I have linked to before Surface Stations a site that "was created in response to the realization that very little physical site survey data exists for the entire United States Historical Climatological Network (USHCN) and Global Historical Climatological Network (GHCN) surface station records worldwide."
Two of the sites' goals are "To photographically document good sites that have been well preserved and maintained through their history" and "To photographically document poor examples of sites that may introduce biases and errors through faulty siting, encroachments, or maintenance issues, and to identify specific issues when possible". These goals are best explained by taking a look at this section which shows a number of badly positioned or otherwise compromised US weather stations.
Spread the word about this. We are being lied to in order for our governments to exert even more control over us and in order to raise even more in taxes from us.
Climate Audit is nominated for the 2007 Best Science Blog and could sure use some help in the voting...
