The Meltdown of Global Warming Alarmism

Here are some shocking revelations from a former director of the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia:
Nonetheless, in the interview Jones:
  1. admitted that he did not believe that “the debate on climate change is over” and that he didn’t “believe the vast majority of climate scientists think this” (Al Gore, Barack Obama, Barbara Boxer, did you hear that? Greenpeace, World Wildlife Fund, Sierra Club, Friends of the Earth, Union of Concerned Scientists, did you hear that? Ed Begley, Robert Kennedy, Richard Cizik, Jim Ball, did you hear that?);

  2. admitted that there was no statistically significant difference between rates of warming from 1860-1880 and 1910-1940 and the rate from 1975-1998, though he and other DAGW believers had for years said the rate in the last period was unprecedented and therefore couldn’t be natural but must be manmade;

  3. admitted that there has been no statistically significant warming for the last 15 years (though he personally believes this is only a temporary pause in manmade warming);
And here's another article that is worth reading. Some warm-mongers still cling to their myths. But the facts are against them:
First of all, the increasing public distrust of scientists is not because of a little argument over emails. The emails themselves simply demonstrate an agenda-driven warm-mongering mindset amongst so-called climate scientists. The real devil is in the manipulated data and outright junk science: the infamous “fudge factor”, the totally discredited hockey stick graph that ignored the medieval warm period and helped win Al Gore his Nobel prize, the little “Hide the Decline” trick, the CRU’s magical climate change tree, Glaciergate, Africagate, and so on…
...
Mistakes — another understatement. No, Mr. Cicerone, the junk science published by the IPCC cannot be dismissed as simple “mistakes.” Your private little club of activists, calling themselves climate scientists, told us the science was settled. You said we had to act immediately to save the planet. You belittled, shunned, and discredited actual scientists who had concerns over the alarmist nature of your “scientific” claims.

Phil Jones, the disgraced head of the CRU, confirmed recently what the real scientists have been saying all along: the science is not settled; there has been no significant warming between 1998-2009; and the Medieval warm period may have actually been warmer. Jones, a scientist, based his debunked scientific findings solely on faulty assumptions from climate modeling.
When will we finally hear that the science is settled - that there's no such thing as man-made global warming? (Or man-made climate change for that matter...)
