बेहतर दैन यू (Better Than You) नाम का कोई द्वीप वजूद में नहीं है। और अगर है भी, तो वह ऐसे मूर्खों से भरा है जो यह देखने के लिए पीछे मुड़कर देखते रहते हैं कि अगला मूर्ख कब आ रहा है।
Better Than You island doesn't exist. And if it does it's full of idiots, looking over their shoulder for the next idiot to arrive.

हम एक ऐसे दौर में पहुँच रहे हैं जहाँ तापमान का यह ठहराव, 1980 में शुरू हुए हालिया ग्लोबल वार्मिंग के दौर की सबसे बड़ी विशेषता बनता जा रहा है। संक्षेप में कहें तो, वैश्विक तापमान बढ़ने के बजाय पहले से कहीं अधिक लंबे समय तक स्थिर बना रहा है।
We are reaching the point where the temperature standstill is becoming the major feature of the recent global warm period that began in 1980. In brief, the global temperature has remained constant for longer than it has increased."

प्रोफेसर मुलर के 'बर्कले अर्थ सरफेस टेम्परेचर प्रोजेक्ट' का जिक्र करते हुए, "बेस्ट (Best) प्रोजेक्ट का विज्ञान और जनता के प्रति रवैया बेहद घटिया रहा है। यह बात चौंकाने वाली है कि मुख्यधारा की मीडिया के इतने सारे तथाकथित पत्रकार उस बात को लेकर इतने अदूरदर्शी और स्वीकार करने वाले थे जो स्पष्ट रूप से तथ्यों को तोड़-मरोड़ कर पेश करना था। एक बार फिर यह साबित हो गया कि वे किसी खास दृष्टिकोण के समर्थक और पैरोकार हैं, जबकि उन्हें निष्पक्ष टिप्पणीकार और पत्रकार होना चाहिए था। जलवायु विज्ञान बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है। यह इससे बेहतर का हकदार है।"
Referring to professor Muller's Berkely Earth Surface Temperature Project, "The Best project's treatment of science and of the public has been shoddy. That so many so-called reporters in the mainstream media should have been so uncritical and accepting of what was clearly misrepresentation is shocking. Once again they have been found to be supporters and advocates for a particular point of view when they should have been critical commentators and journalists. Climate science is important. It deserves better.

जलवायु परिवर्तन पर आम सहमति की रिपोर्ट करना... अच्छी विज्ञान रिपोर्टिंग का पर्याय नहीं है। बीबीसी (BBC) एक महत्वपूर्ण मोड़ पर है। यह कई वर्षों से जलवायु परिवर्तन के मामले में संकुचित सोच वाला रहा है और कम से कम एक घिसा-पिटा जुमला बन चुका है, और बदतर स्थिति में उस जनता द्वारा इसे पूर्वानुमानित और पक्षपाती कहकर इसका मज़ाक उड़ाया जाता है जो अब इस पर विश्वास नहीं करती।
Reporting the consensus about climate change ... is not synonymous with good science reporting. The BBC is at an important point. It has been narrow minded about climate change for many years and they have become at the very least a cliché and at worst lampooned as being predictable and biased by a public that doesn't believe them anymore.

ऐसा वाकई लगता है कि 2007 और 2008 की रिकॉर्ड गिरावट के बाद समुद्री बर्फ 'औसत' स्थिति में लौट रही है। तब से इसमें सुधार का एक निश्चित रुझान देखने को मिला है, इसलिए बर्फ-मुक्त गर्मियों की तरफ बढ़ने के बजाय ऐसा लगता है कि वह केवल एक अस्थायी गिरावट थी। हाल के ऑब्जर्वेशन्स (अवलोकनों) से 2007 के वे अनुमान पूरी तरह से अविश्वसनीय लगते हैं जिनमें कहा गया था कि 2013 तक यह क्षेत्र बर्फ-मुक्त हो जाएगा। मौजूदा हालातों को देखते हुए अब केवल कोई मूर्ख ही दूर भविष्य की तरफ देखकर बर्फ-मुक्त गर्मियों की भविष्यवाणी करेगा।
It does seem that the sea ice is returning to 'average' after the record lows of 2007 and 2008. There has been a definite recovery trend since then, so far from being a progression towards ice free summers it seems that it was a temporary dip. The recent observations do make the 2007 projections that the region would be ice free by 2013 look very unrealistic. Given what is happening only the foolish would look many years into the future and predict ice free summers now.
