The Fourth National Climate Assessment is the Deep State at its absolute worst. The narrative in the document is a vague, unsubstantiated warning of every sort of catastrophe in a warmer world. The graphics on warming are 100% ground-based readings that are assumed and assigned for a majority of the planet, including the oceans. They are tainted by the urban heat island effect — urbanization around historical temperature gauges — and completely ignore the best temperature record by far, satellite readings. Satellite readings are 100% corroborated by weather balloons and both show minimal warming since 1979. Also the assumptions are using fossil fuels is bad, not good, and that a colder world is better than a warmer world. All unsubstantiated, if not absurd. The Deep State will never be ashamed, but it should be.
