Remote Sensing Editor Resigns over Spencer and Braswell paper

By Eco Guy 12:52am 5th September 2011
Publishing a good paper that goes against the climate change 'consensus' is enough for a journal editor to resign over - OMG!

Maths Bug App

To help my children learn and improve their general maths ability I wrote an Android app called Maths Bug that makes maths fun. Similar to the way you would use a mathematics worksheet to learn subtractions or do fractions, this app gives you sets of tests to work through on a given area and keeps track of your progress.



Features:
  •  9 different tests to challenge you
  • Either type your answer or use multiple choice
  • Extensive sound effects and graphics to keep you engaged
  • Built in scoring depending on speed, accuracy and difficulty level
  • Inspired by structured learning systems like Kumon
  • Built in world wide high score tables per test or overall
  • Change the background to suit your taste
  • Built in blackboard to help you with working out
  • Works equally well on mobiles or tablets.

If you are on an Android device now you can click here to go straight to the market page.

Enjoy!


BTW If you are wondering what this is doing here; it does improve your mental ability and betters brains mean better decision making, so in a very indirect way this could help the environment.. If you want to learn more directly about the environment I suggest you download our Green Dictionary app.

    Why did he really quit? I know of no journal editor who has resigned over a published paper. Even if they found the paper to be full of errors, that has never been good enough reason to quit in the past. Journals publish bad science all the time, the editors don't quit over it, so why did this guy really quit? I don’t believe this paper by Spencer was the real reason, this does not pass the sniff test. I’m sorry but there is something else going on here that we’re not hearing about. I smell a rat.

      Hi Klem, I know it stinks. It looks like there might be an internal conflict of interest caused by him having a project funded that operates on the basis that the findings of the paper are incorrect... Might be some interesting FOI's to undertake.
