We all really should have expected this As if warning of things to come if the climate-change talks fail, COP17 opened in Durban this morning amid unseasonably cold and wet weather that killed eight people in flooding overnight. Got that? Greenhouse gases, which “trap” heat, are responsible for unseasonable cold weather. Jean Luc, what’s your […]

Those of us on the right who have been keeping an eye on the Occupy movement have said that it is pretty much a leftist movement which is simply a new way to push their far left positions. We’ve already seen some of the inclusion of the “climate change (hoax)” within the rallies, primarily a […]

So says Warmist Michael McCarthy over at the UK Independent Nothing namby-pamby about Margaret Thatcher, whatever you may think of her in the round. Nothing wishy-washy, nothing bunny-hugging, nothing lefty about the Iron Lady. And this is what she told the assembled fellows of the Royal Society on 27 September 1988: “For generations, we have […]

I’m glad the Warmists are around to tell us to eat our leftovers, otherwise, I might have forgotten that the delicious turkey I cooked, along with mashed spuds, stuffing, and apple pie (along with several things people brought that I won’t eat) (Grist) As if turkey pot pie and turkey a la king aren’t enticing […]

Tom Nelson actually beat me to the “Bummer” headline of sorts. I saw this typically unginged story over at Grist this morning, had plans to write it with ye olde Droid this afternoon (which is why there are no hyperlinks in the excerpts except one) Here’s the current list of delicious foods that climate change […]

Al Gore digs deep into the science as he writes in his journal “When I talk with people who are skeptical about climate change science, I’m often asked: “I know global warming is happening, but how do we know humans are causing the change?†“Broadly, this question requires a two-part explanation:†“1. We know that […]

Apparently, the only people covering the hearing was HuffPost Green. After a lot of yammering we end with During the Q&A session that followed the presentations, talk turned to the role of humans in global warming, and it became pretty clear that Muller remains a skeptic on that front. Here again I was somewhat rankled […]

We’re doooooomed! (UK Guardian) The lesson the world is learning the hard way from the financial crisis is that there is only one boat and we are all in it.

We’ve seen this same line over the past year, as the Warmists attempt to say that things like air pollution, soot, and other air borne particles are masking the affects of anthropogenic global warming. It’s actually pretty darned pathetic (NPR) Cleaning up the air, while good for our lungs, could make global warming worse. That […]
