Former Obama Official: Climate Data Purposely Manipulated to Influence Public Opinion

Most interesting part..

Former Energy Department Undersecretary Steven Koonin told The Wall Street Journal Monday that bureaucrats within former President Barack Obama’s administration spun scientific data to manipulate public opinion.
“What you saw coming out of the press releases about climate data, climate analysis, was, I’d say, misleading, sometimes just wrong,” Koonin said, referring to elements within the Obama administration he said were responsible for manipulating climate data.
He pointed to a National Climate Assessment in 2014 showing hurricane activity has increased from 1980 as an illustration of how federal agencies fudged climate data. Koonin said the NCA’s assessment was technically incorrect.
Koonin is not the only one claiming wrongdoing. House lawmakers with the Committee on Science, Space and Technology, for instance, recently jumpstarted an investigation into NOAA after a whistleblower said agency scientists rushed a landmark global warming study to influence policymakers.

“What they forgot to tell you, and you don’t know until you read all the way into the fine print is that it actually decreased in the decades before that,” he said. The U.N. published reports in 2014 essentially mirroring Koonin’s argument.

The only thing worse than a science denier is a German science denier.

They're too busy in the corner sucking their thumbs at Bill Nye's house to say anything about this. All quiet on the Western front...similar to the day after the election.
Their houses were built on sand, bruh.

If you truly believed without a doubt its a hoax you wouldn't be going to these bullshite psycho right wing sites like gatewaypundit for your scientific research. Stop being the epitome of who the left considers a swamp dwelling idiot.

Yes you did.... "I'm not capable of sticking to the facts."
Your second point "Truth does not matter, end justifies means"

You honestly cannot see the double standard there. I wont get upset at my dog for not understanding math so Im not upset with you either. I truly believe you don't get how stupid it is to call anything from the NYT fake if its against your position, and site them if it supports your position. I just need some standards. Until then it's completely pointless.

I never called them fake news in the first place. If they said this theres nothing wrong with looking into it. But guarantee yourself tomorrow when someone posts a NYT article against your position on something one of you will be there to yell melt cuck or fake news.
