Proof of Global Warming fakery

Here's an in depth article which shows that the temperature record is being systematically altered to lower temperatures in the past so as to show a rising temperature today.

We can tell that there's a problem with this for one simple reason; we have every reason to believe that current temperatures are being measured artificially high yet the current temperatures are not being lowered.

The biggest impact on temperature sensors is something called the urban heat island effect.  If you measure the temperature in a grassy glade and in an asphalt parking lot you'll get two very different temperatures because the asphalt warms up and radiates heat--that thermal warming around cities is why tornados rarely hit them by the way.

Over decades the urban areas grow so that thermometers which used to be in grassy settings are now near roads and other heat raising artifacts.  Hence one would expect that we need to correct modern temperatures down to compensate for that effect but that's the opposite of what the corrects applied by people who all stand to get more funding if Global Warming is real make.
