That he failed to provide his facts says an awful lot about his “science”.

And let me get this straight, you are saying the sun’s effect on the earth is a constant? Solar minima is not a factor?

I do agree that many climate scientists, in an apparent rush to cash in on the hysteria, have done their cause more harm than good simply by appearing to have ulterior motives and taking shortcuts.

Little Ice ages, glaciers making the great lakes, the earth has cooled/warmed countless times over the years and it had NOTHING to do with humans and automobiles which didnt even show up until the 1900's.
The icing on the cake is that global warming is GOOD for mankind but no one cares about that important fact.
No one mentions the inaccuracy of measuring the earths climate and its changes prior to the last 50 or so years.
I say you take a chill pill, wait another 11 years and if the earth is still here then you can admit you were wrong.

In court? Before a jury of his "peers"? That's not how the justice system really works. When the topic is technically complex, lawyer BS plays an ever greater role in the outcome. The judge and jury were neither tasked, nor remotely competent, to give a ruling on global warming.

An excerpt:
While scholars of scientific communication have identified many potential biases that might affect the quality and neutrality of peer reviews [see Weller (2001) and Lee et al. (2013) for reviews of this literature], peer review is still recognized within most research institutions as the best method for evaluating the merits of scientific work.
A growing challenge to peer review is the increasing importance of digital datasets and computational research methods within scientific research. The increased emphases by funding agencies and research organizations are pushing scientific communities toward new approaches for data sharing, management, and preservation (Overpeck et al. 2011). Methods for assessing and ensuring data quality are also taking on new importance to engender trust in data and to enable secondary data use.

So you have evidence that this is not accurate to determine the fluctuations in the earths global temperatures? Please share this new evidence!

Mann had his theory that CO2 is bad supported by his manipulated data. He kept his manipulations secret.
Ball said bull**** you are a fraud.
Mann used legal system to try to silence Ball.
15 years later Mann attempts yet another delay to try to cost Ball more money. Ball says ok we accept your delay if you provide your now 20 year old data. Court sides with Ball.
Mann decided to give up rather than to support his science.
You and I both know that it wasn’t going to be Joe Hoser sitting on the Jury deciding if Mann was a fraud. It was an appeals court, and what would have happened is Mann would have presented his “proof”, Ball would have rebutted it, the court would have had neutral experts help them decide who was the wronged party.
Mann was the aggressor and folded like leaf in a rain forest denied CO2.
