"Unsafe Space," dedicated to discussing serious issues in comedic fashion, did everyone a real service on January 22. It posted a panel discussion on climate change featuring scientists Jon Christensen (defending the alarmist view) and Willie Soon (defending the skeptics' view). It's a good discussion with plenty of give-and-take and at least a modicum of mutual respect. An abbreviated version in video is on YouTube, while the full version, audio only, is on Unsafe Space's own site (where … [Read more...]
Forget Climate Change, Defend America!
George Orwell, call your office. In what Huffington Post's Alexander Kaufman called "an Orwellian rhetorical shift away from a scientific reality," the Department of Defense "scrubbed its latest National Defense Strategy of all references to climate change." In all likelihood, Orwell would call the 30-year campaign for climate alarmism---with all its oxymoronic appeals to "scientific consensus," its sleight-of-hand temperature data homogenizations, its revisions of past data to exaggerate … [Read more...]
Bringing Much-Needed Reality to Extreme Weather Claims
For decades, headlines around the world have claimed that various extreme weather events---hurricanes, typhoons, floods, droughts, heat waves, wildfires, even cold snaps---are driven by global warming. Similar claims have persisted in the record-breaking cold afflicting North America this winter. Such claims become rationale for expensive policies to mitigate the warming by cutting CO2 emissions, achievable only by reducing fossil fuel use and substituting wind and solar energy … [Read more...]
The Great Winter of 2017-2018 and the Hypocrisy of Climate Alarmists
As record lows gripped many parts of the U.S. and Canada, the global warming elitists scrambled to announce to the world that climate change was the driving force behind the freezing weather. Inevitably, their claims have exposed the hypocrisy of the global warming cult that has instilled fear among the public. Temperatures in many parts of the Atlantic U.S. went down drastically last week. Canada was not an exception, with record lows registered in many provinces since November last … [Read more...]
President’s Tweet Trumps Gore’s on Climate Change
In Florida over the holidays, President Trump tweeted, “In the East, it could be the COLDEST New Year’s Eve on record. Perhaps we could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against. Bundle up!” Al Gore—the leading global warming propagandist—fearing a collapse of his warming hypothesis, tweeted that the recent record lows are due to global warming. That drew biting derision from real … [Read more...]
None so blind as them that will not see
It seems nothing short of miraculous how global warming alarmists can always come up with ways to stick with their hypothesis in the face of so much contrary evidence. Case in point: The BBC ran a story on Russia that claimed that reindeer populations across northern Russia were "in steep decline because of climate change." The Global Warming Policy Foundation's Lord Nigel Lawson corrected that by pointing out that 17 out of 19 subpopulations are growing, not shrinking. The BBC's … [Read more...]
Larry Bell takes NY Times reporter to the woodshed for taking President Trump to the woodshed
Kendra Pierre-Louis will rue the day when she took it on herself to teach President Donald Trump the difference between climate and weather. So will the New York Times, the newspaper in which she did it. Why? Because she was right. And that meant she and the Times were wrong. Larry Bell took her to the woodshed in the first few paragraphs of his latest column: President Trump’s December 28 tweet connecting an upcoming "Coldest New Year’s Eve on record" with not paying "trillions … [Read more...]
Sydney Heat and “Bomb” Snowstorm: Pimped Out for Climate Change
It’s been an eventful weather week in some portions of the globe. In fact, it is always an eventful weather week – somewhere. But what really drives the narrative is when weather extremes — which always have, and always will, occur — happen to hit major metropolitan areas. Many people are already aware of the relentless guffawing resulting from Al Gore’s tweet that Michael Mann says the Northeast’s current cold wave is just what global warming predicts. (As I recall, Mann is a mathematician, … [Read more...]
Monckton Writes to EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt on Clean Power Plan
We're delighted that our friend Viscount Christopher Monckton, one of the leading critics of climate alarmism, allowed us to publish this letter to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt, with which we wholeheartedly agree. We encourage citizens to make their own opinions known to Administrator Pruitt. By the way, what comes out of the "smokestacks" in the photo below is not smoke but water vapor (the white condensing steam) and carbon dioxide, not a pollutant but an … [Read more...]
Global Warming Believers, Take Note: Real Science Doesn’t Shy from Challenges
Guest blog by Mark Landsbaum, reprinted from Barbwire.com with permission Somewhere online yours truly posted a comment about global warming that stirred one of the faithful. Faithful global warming believer, that is. The true believer sent me an email that demanded: Please don’t ever write about a subject you are so hopelessly uneducated in ever again, and if you do, do the courtesy to your unfortunate reader of providing sources. For the umpteenth time I had been shouted down by one of … [Read more...]
