How science works ...

... and how not: Angier's The Canon and New Atheism at Prosthesis. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

In this connection, this is very much worth looking at, since, I gather, it is up for peer review, and it's about soundness of methodology: Global Warming: Forecasts by Scientists versus Scientific Forecasts*.

"We have been unable to identify any scientific forecasts to support global
warming. Claims that the Earth will get warmer have no more credence than saying that it will get
colder."
