When it comes to climate change, the public's appreciation of uncertainty seems to vanish. This is partly due to intense propaganda from official government bodies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) plus heavy support from the media. For example, in mid-January NOAA headlined their home page, “It's official, 2014 was Earth's warmest year on record.” NASA proclaimed in their January 16th news video, “2014 was the hottest year on record.” But these announcements are effectively lies, argues Tom Harris.
