As people put up solar panels, whether for the energy savings or because they are barking moonbat climate changers, they could run in to a wee bit of a problem  Solar energy customers are worried a new fee proposed by Xcel Energy would punish new customers for getting solar panels.  The monthly fee, which would […]

Of course, this might be redundant, since the whole AGW movement is a fraud HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has recently uncovered what is thought to be the first attempted UK tax fraud in the carbon emissions trading market. The tax dodge is a variation of the “carousel” VAT fraud. Carousel fraud, also known as […]

Last week, Conor Clarke at The Atlantic had an interview with Nobel Prize-winning economist Thomas Schelling, and look at what Schelling said regarding the anthropogenic global warming movement (via Tom Nelson) …And what I don’t know is whether Americans are really willing to understand that and do anything for the benefit of the unborn Chinese. It’s a […]

Over at FiveThirtyEight, True Believer Nate Silver is a wee bit upset about something John Hinderaker wrote about the cool period in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which John compared to the Year Without A Summer (1816,) which, yes, is a stretch. Nate goes to lengths to point out that the average temperature has been pretty much right […]

Well, now that the USA Today asks, yes. There is no doubt that global warming has occured. The Little Ice Age ended because of a warming planet. The seas continued their 6-8 inch rise per century, as had been going on for 7,500 years. Other planets, such as Mars and Jupiter, have seen increased temperatures. […]

Apparently, when Obama said that he wanted to put science ahead of a political agenda, the science was that of the 2nd Century. Let’s start with U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu “For the first time in human history, science has shown that we are altering the destiny of our planet. At no other time in […]

With the passage of the massively insane Waxman-Markey cap and tax bill, here are four questions to ask those who support it, particularly the politicians who voted for it and AGW leaders such as Al Gore 1. Did you read the bill before throwing your support behind it? Did you read the 300 page dead of […]

Who were the losers in the cap and tax bill? Anyone who pays an electric bill would likely feel the impact of climate legislation. Utilities will try to raise rates as they invest in cleaner-yet-more-expensive energy sources. Some have already announced plans to do so. Petroleum companies also may try to import more of their refined gas […]

Time and time again, I and others have pointed out that the whole anthropogenic global warming silliness is not about “saving the planet from mankind,” but about control. People might have believed in it a bit more if the people who pushed it the hardest weren’t the worst CO2 offenders, but, regardless, let’s ask John […]

Resisting yet another Obama post (this time, the NY Times gently calls him a liar). It’s difficult. Guy gives a constant stream of copy. So, let’s jump into the realm of global warming hysteria, shall we? First up, the Sun, that big ball of nuclear fire that, according to most Climahysterics, can’t possibly have anything to […]
