It turns out that almost every temperature station operated by the
National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is corruptly placed
to make the country appear "warmer" than it actually is, effectively
amplifying the "global warming" hoax.
An astounding 96 percent of NOAA's temperature stations fail to the meet
the the agency’s own “uncorrupted placement” standards, according to
research compiled by the Heartland Institute. Most of them are located
near objects that trap or produce heat, corrupting their readouts.
Others are located in areas that, since the time of their placement,
have become far more urbanized. This, too, is increasing the heat
readouts and making it seem all across the board that “climate change”
is real. (Related: The biggest heater of the planet is the sun, not cow flatulence or gas-powered vehicles.)
“With a 96 percent warm-bias in U.S. temperature measurements, it is
impossible to use any statistical methods to derive an accurate climate
trend for the U.S.,” says Heartland Institute Senior Fellow Anthony
Watts, the study’s director.
“Data from the stations that have not been corrupted by faulty
placement show a rate of warming in the United States reduced by almost
half compared to all stations.”
A press release from the Heartland Institute further explains the
standards that NOAA is supposed to use to decide whether or not a
temperature station is placed correctly for optimal accuracy – standards
that the agency is not currently following.
