Nearly Three Quarters Believe Global Warming Data Falsified

我一直觀察著相信人為全球變暖（AGW）的人數下跌有好幾年。
At first, many if not most people were willing to give scientists the benefit of the doubt. After all, scientists and other “professionals” have a reputation of being concerned with facts, not opinions and agendas. Right or wrong, the general public has a historical perception of scientists as being objective and above personal biases.
起初，有許多人如果不是大多數人，願意給懷疑利益歸於科學家。畢竟，科學家和其他“專業人士”有關注事實的信譽，而不是意見和議程。是對是錯，大眾有一個對科學家的歷史性看法，是客觀及超乎個人偏見的。
But as people began to learn more about this apocalyptic prediction, their confidence in the scientific community in general and this hypothesis in particular began to drop. People began to realize how little actual solid evidence there is for AGW, and how much of the hypothesis is based on computer models.
但隨著人們開始了解更多這末日的預測，他們的信心對一般科學界和特別是這個假設開始下跌。人們開始認識到人為全球變暖有如何少的實際確鑿證據，及又有多少的假設是建基於電腦模型。
The public started to see that while most of the predictions concerning AGW are so far out into the future as to be unverifiable, some were short term…and have been woefully missed by these computer models.
公眾開始看到，儘管大部分有關 AGW的預測這麼遠在未來而不可驗證的，有些是短期的...及已是這些電腦模型令人遺憾地錯失的。
As public belief in this idea began to drop, the so-called scientific community began to overplay its hand, and soon we were hearing scientists tell us that anything and everything was a sign, was proof of global warming: if it’s hot, that proves global warming; if it’s cold, that proves global warming; if it rains, that proves global warming; if it snows, that proves global warming; if there’s a drought, that proves global warming. Uh huh. Yes, too many people are preoccupied with Survivor and Lady Gaga, but only a few of us are that stupid and disengaged intellectually.
Then came ClimateGate, where we found out about “scientists” who had destroyed their raw data, were trying to “hide the decline” in temperatures, and were relying on “fudged” computer models. Even the United Nation’s IPCC environmentalist group ended up with egg on their face. In other words, we were dealing with junk science being peddled by Marxists as an excuse to exercise greater control and extort more tax money from the people.
And we learned of the blatant hypocrisy of the environmentalists pushing this hoax. It’s not hard to figure out that if the people hysterically telling us we need to stop using electricity and ride bicycles don’t take their own mantra seriously, neither should we.
Meanwhile, the data just keeps rolling in from various sources which shows us that climate change is a natural and cyclic phenomenon that has been occurring in extremes even greater than today, going back hundreds and thousands of years.
It’s no wonder that one of the last polls I saw on belief in AGW showed only about 1/3 of Americans believed in this silly idea anymore.
Now Rasmussen Reports releases a poll showing nearly 3/4 of Americans believe that it’s at least somewhat likely that some scientists have faked their research data to get us to believe this scam.
現在拉斯穆森報告發佈一項民調，顯示近3/4的美國人相信至少有些可能一些科學家，偽造他們的研究數據以讓我們相信這騙局。
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of American Adults shows that 69% say it’s at least somewhat likely that some scientists have falsified research data in order to support their own theories and beliefs, including 40% who say this is Very Likely. Twenty-two percent (22%) don’t think it’s likely some scientists have falsified global warming data, including just six percent (6%) say it’s Not At All Likely. Another 10% are undecided.
最新的拉斯穆森報告全國性美國成年人電話調查顯示，69％說它至少有些可能一些科學家偽造研究數據以圖支持他們自己的理論和信念，包括40％說這是非常可能的； 22％人不認為可能有一些科學家偽造全球變暖數據，包括衹百分之六（6％）說這是全不可能；另外10％是未決定。
Wow. Only 22% don’t think it’s likely “scientists” (I’m sorry, but if you’re agenda-driven and trying to deceive people about the facts, you don’t deserve to be called a scientist without some quotes around the word to qualify it) are trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
It’ll only be a few more years before this hoax ends up on the ash heap of history with a flat earth, bleeding, and geocentrism. Oh, there remain some politicians who dangerously believe this nonsense, and the Marxists won’t go gently into the night, but the tipping point has been reached and it won’t be long before AGW will be a cheap throw-away joke on late-night TV.
