Some are Warmists, some are Alarmists. Either way, most of them are bat-shit crazy (KCET) In the last few days an alarming (ie, batshit crazy) article making the rounds on social media has revived the idea that our species might be doing itself in by changing the global climate. The article, by vice.com’s Nathan Curry, […]

Over at the NY Times, which is known for allowing both sides to provide viewpoints (sic), Warmist Maggie Koerth-Baker is super concerned about what hotcoldwetdry might do to the insurance industry In March 1947, a winter of heavy snowfall followed by a quick thaw and torrents of rain swelled rivers throughout England and Wales.

Let’s first take a moment to briefly describe what Warmists mean by “climate change”: their view is that Mankind is mostly/solely responsible for the warming that occurred since (insert date here based on whatever point they’re trying to make), and it is mostly fossil fuels that cause it, along with too many humans. Said warming […]

Apparently they’re stealth hurricanes, since the US mainland has not been hit by a major hurricane since October 24, 2005 (Hurricane enable: How climate change is mixing up bigger, badder storms ) Global warming and hurricanes are like Bourbon Street and Hurricanes: The farther down the road you go, the more intense they get. Buy […]

Al Gore sat down for an interview with the Washington Post’s Ezra Klein, and provides some real howlers. Here’s the part relevant to the headline (via Watts Up With That?)

Is it any wonder that Steve King (R-IA) stated that climate change is a religion? Warmists constantly change their tune in order to protect it (Time) But what if climate change were instead about an increase in childhood asthma, or a surge in infectious diseases, or even an influx of heat-induced heart attacks? Would that […]

It must have been really warm as the Black Death rolled through Europe and Asia…oh, wait, it was cooler and wetter during that time period. Anyhow, here’s super-Warmist Bryan Walsh at Time (via Tom Nelson) The venerable Science magazine has a special issue out today on climate change. Some of the content is free, and it’s […]

Because, remember, there were no wars or fights or violence before CO2 was at 350ppm (Bloomberg) Climate change will probably trigger more human conflict, according to an article in the journal Science. An examination of 60 separate studies, including one stretching back to 10,000 B.C., found that individuals, groups and nations are “substantially†more likely […]

How many times have Warmists prognosticated that the Arctic would be ice free? We’ve seen “by the end of the century”, by 2008, by 2040, 2012, 2010-2015. And, remember, we have all the folks predicting that 2013 would be ice free. Not working out too well. Especially for the Sierra Club, which predicted the sea […]

Glad they have a really good margin of error. Let’s start with the first paragraph (via Tom Nelson) (Huff Post) A new article in the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), is headlined “The Multimillennial Sea-Level Commitment of Global Warming,” and it reports that because of carbon emissions that are virtually certain, […]
