The CRU’s magical climate change tree

The Warmergate fairy tale just gets better all the time, doesn’t it.

Read: Climategate reveals ‘the most influential tree in the world’ by Christopher Booker

Indeed only the evidence from one tree, YADO61, seemed to show a “hockey stick” pattern, and it was this, in light of the extraordinary reverence given to the CRU’s studies, which led McIntyre to dub it “the most influential tree in the world”.

And regarding the “hide the decline” comment…

Its true significance, we can now see, is that what they intended to hide was the awkward fact that, apart from that one tree, the Yamal data showed temperatures not having risen in the late 20th century but declining.

It’s time for the eco-kiddies to grow up and stop believing in fairy tales before they help bankrupt the planet.

Finally the climate doom church has its first religious icon – the tree of creation which begat the sacred hockey stick and from whence fell the apple of climategate – who will eat the forbidden fruit and have Gaia hurl them from the garden? LOL :-)

But there’s no place like home! There’s no place like home!
