"The report issued in the US government sponsored "Climate Science Special Report" does not provide a complete portrayal of science.

It is fraught with incomplete information and reinforces the need for a more rigorous review of climate assessment

The report notes that global sea level rose an average of 0.05 inch a year during the 20th century and twice that rate since 1993.

However, the report fails to mention that the rate fluctuated by comparable amounts several times during the 20th century.

The same research papers the report cites,show that recent rates are statistically indistinguishable from peak rates in early in the 20th century when human influences on the climate were much smaller . Thus the report highlights recent trends without placing it in a complete historical context

The executive summary declares that heat waves have become more common since 1960; although acknowledge the 1930's Dust bowl as the peak period for extreme heat.

Yet buried deep in this report is a figure showing that heat waves are no more frequent today than in 1900

The National and Atmospheric Administration stated that it has been unable to detect any human impact on hurricanes

Richard Feynman in his "1974 Cargo Cult" lecture, admonished scientist to discuss objectively all the relevant evidence, even that which does not support the narrative. That is the difference between science and advocacy

Several actions are warranted:

1. The report should be amended to describe the history of sea-level rise, heat waves and other trends fully and accurately

2. The government should convene a Red/blue adversarial review to test stress the entire repor.t

3. The institutions involved in the report should figure out how and why shortcomings survived multiple rounds of review."
