You better read the mails of the two climategate scandal and conform a better opinion about the matter than with the bush fires and hurricanes that the sanitary towell sellers tell you in your dumb box. You can see how a conspiracy of interests push truth away and replace it with half truths. That is happening since the human learn to talk and socialize.

When the measures of tree growth is made by hungry russians that are ansious to get his money and depend on western "scientists" that need their next year grant from politicians that want to see reasons for giving them millions of dollars, Then there is nothing that may resemble the scientific method.
