Default Balance as bias: global warming and the US prestige press

Here is an article from the scientific press which reinforces my views of the
misreporting of the global warming "debate" by the BBC. It is not only in hte
US that the balance is biased!


Balance as bias: global warming and the US prestige press

Technology Already Exists to Stabilize Global Warming
August 12 — Existing technologies could stop the escalation of global
warming for 50 years and work on implementing them can begin
immediately, according to an analysis by Princeton University
scientists. (PhysOrg.com, Christian Science Monitor)

New Findings Show Earth is Not Getting Warmer
August 12 — Contrary to most research, a new study finds the Earth is
not warming significantly, say scientists with the universities of
Rochester and Virginia. (U.S. Newswire)

Reefs Get Global Warming Lifeline
August 11 — New research shows that some forms of algae can allow coral
to withstand higher temperatures, potentially reducing the impact of
global warming. (Nature, CBC)

Almost every other article in:
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/New...01/200108.html is
about global warming. In a democratic use of statistics, global warming
would be proven. Fortunately most sciences still require facts not
opinion.
