...This isn’t part of the narrative being spun by Naomi Oreskes, Harvard professor of the history of science.
Previewing the hottest-year-on-record announcements, Oreskes wrote in the New York Times last week that we were underreacting to the reality of dangerous climate change “now unfolding before our eyes.”
The burden of proof should be lowered, Oreskes argued, but her excursion into statistical methodology to buttress this contention was widely panned (here, here, and here).
Most jaw-dropping was Oreskes’s claim that climate change is happening “faster than scientists predicted.”
This is flat-out untrue.
