Global warming is urban heat island warming

This is the simplest case for urban heat island (UHI) warming being most of the 'global' warming seen in the data.



And its fun to see a kid and his biologist dad showing how easy it is to show that the climate lobby has got it wrong.
In a few months time school kids world wide will be doing this and the expensive climate panic attack will be over.

Urban heat island is dismissed by the 'warmists' as a signal much less than global warming. UHI = 0.1 degree a decade verses 0.5 degrees a decade for global mean surface temperatures.

This looks at weather stations in China but others have noted that the raw-data from those weathers stations is not consistent with the claims.

These areas were possibly disrupted by communist take over and the cultural revolution. Also China has industrialised and urbanised a few decades after the west as a consequence of some lessons learned in the west May have been applied to the Chinese cities. It turns out however that most of these rural weather stations weren't really rural enough and some of the data sets from china now can't be found, If they ever existed.

The real problem is sloppy weather station installation and management.

Various uncontrolled heat sources: parking areas, air-conditioners, uninsulated buildings, have crept up on the weathers stations Stevenson screens. The box the instruments are in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevenson_screen

This happens in many so called rural weather stations.
Jones et al may exclude a few big cities from their analysis in response to UHI but they don't check the environment on the ground.
That's been left up to a bunch of volunteers at http://www.surfacestations.org/
What are we paying the bureau of meteorology to do?

I feel the need to buy a camera and photograph a few local weather stations.

Interesting theme, I will take part. I know, that together we can come to a right answer.
I like your idea. I suggest to take out for the general discussion.
It is a pity, that now I can not express - I am late for a meeting. I will return - I will necessarily express the opinion on this question.
What eventually it is necessary to it?
At me a similar situation. It is possible to discuss.
