David Johnson, who follows us on Facebook, brought our attention to this article, which demonstrates that some California cities, including San Francisco, which with Oakland is suing five major oil companies including ExxonMobil, alleging that the companies suppressed from their stockholders what they knew about the risks of climate change to their stocks' future value, are guilty of exactly that practice themselves in dealing with their bondholders. Here's the essence of the story: ... consider … [Read more...]

What’s Behind the Rhetoric of ‘Climate Change’ and the Demonizing of Skeptics?
Emily Holden is a well-trained rhetorician. In her Politico article “Climate change skeptics run the Trump administration,” she writes of President Trump and his appointees’ “disbelief in the scientific evidence for climate change,” which of course is spin in multiple ways. Holden depends from the start on the fact that skepticism of “climate change” is now widely considered anti-scientific. Yet as the philosopher of science Robert K. Merton wrote 80 years ago, “Most institutions demand … [Read more...]
The elementary error of physics that caused the global warming scare
[Editor's note: Lord Christopher Monckton of Brenchley, a British journalist and polymath who has been at the forefront of arguments against catastrophic anthropogenic global warming, prepared this document for submission as a brief to U.S. District Judge William Alsup in a case brought by San Francisco and Oakland against five major oil companies that seeks to hold the companies liable for damages from warming caused by the use of their products. It was first published at … [Read more...]
Chennai, India’s Cold Winter vs. Global Warming Hype
Why do developing countries like India fear calling out the climate myth? Because doing so would risk international trade relations by challenging the European economic powerhouses that are vehemently opposed to any country that leaves the Paris accord. In fact, the European Union’s new Brussels policy stipulates that the EU will not sign trade pacts with any country that does not ratify the Paris agreement. While many climate alarmists call for India to cut down its dependence on coal, fearing … [Read more...]
The Hazards of Lending Books on Climate Change
Today my good friend Dr. Tom Sheahen, a physicist and head of the Institute for Theological Encounter with Science and Technology (ITEST), wrote to say, Already this morning a friend sent me the "Patriot Post" rendition of your article ["Senator Whitehouse, Your New Wardrobe Is Ready"] that quotes me at length. Thank you very much. The "sackcloth and ashes" wardrobe line was really clever. I didn't see that coming at all. I just wish some members of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church would … [Read more...]
FINALLY! Climate Propaganda May Be Reaching A Tipping Point
Has the climate propaganda reached a point where radical climatism is leading us into dangerous negligence? The severe winter in the northern hemisphere has been widely recorded. However, key climate information providers have altered data. The result — intended or not — has been to make the recent record lows of the winter appear normal. November 2017 marked the onset of a very cold winter across the Northern Hemisphere. Many parts of North America and Eurasia registered record lows, … [Read more...]
Because Joe Bastardi Says It So Well
Joe Bastardi's The Climate Chronicles: Inconvenient Revelations You Won't Hear from Al Gore---And Others is simply a delightfully fun book to read. It's also well reasoned. Here's an example of clarity and cogency: ... in the weaponization of weather, there are three factors that enable this tactic [of blaming all new weather extremes on anthropogenic global warming] to be used: The people pushing this believe they are heroic revolutionaries. They have set themselves up as the underdog, … [Read more...]
Senator Whitehouse, Your New Wardrobe Is Ready
One of the things I most appreciate about Joe Bastardi's book The Climate Chronicles: Inconvenient Revelations You Won't Hear from Al Gore---And Others is the long historical perspective he brings. Again and again he quotes alarmists about manmade global warming claiming that this or that event, or this or that series of events, or this or that period in this or that place, is "unprecedented" and therefore obviously due to human-induced warming---and then he opens up the history records and … [Read more...]
Hottest Arctic Ever? Arctic Climate Change Fairytales vs. Reality
Last week, social media and mainstream media were abuzz with news about the record Arctic heat and how we humans are destroying our planet through climate change. While we brace for a barrage of climate doomsday news, here is the actual reality of climatic conditions at the Arctic and reasons why we are not in imminent danger. On 26 February, temperatures in some regions of the Arctic hovered around the freezing point (zero degree Celsius)—a record high for this time of year in the satellite … [Read more...]
