The blog post below about the Congo shows another example of how NOAA has erased the warmth of the 1940s.

In 1974, the National Center For Atmospheric Research showed a large global warming spike to the 1940’s, followed by very rapid cooling back to below 1870’s levels.

NASA and NOAA have since erased the 1940’s warmth and the subsequent cooling.

It wasn’t just the top American scientists who saw the decline. Britain’s top scientists saw the same thing.

In fact, there was unanimous consensus among the world’s scientists that Earth was cooling since 1940.

SCIENTISTS AGREE WORLD IS COLDER

The post 1940 cooling was indisputable.

Government climate science is the biggest fraud in history, which is why they and their minions in the press attempt to prosecute and silence anyone who dissents from it.
