LIES, DAMNED LIES AND CLIMATE STATISTICS

Prof. Phil Jones (he of the CRU email scandal) is often quoted as saying that there has been "no statistically significant warming since 1995". Now he has come forward to say that when 2010 is included in the data the warming has become "significant", and this new statement from him is being widely quoted on pro-warmist blogs. Here on the excellent GWPF website is an article that discusses this particular statistic in detail. Interestingly the article points out that there is no doubt that from 2001 to 2010 there has still been no statistically significant warming, so tell that to the warmists.
