Could a melting Antarctica threaten the Sunshine State?
Reuters recently warned us of rising seas based on accelerated melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet. If true, Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico waters could flood Florida’s beaches in as little as a few decades. On the heels of the National Climate Assessment (NCA), White House adviser John Podesta is corralling public support for EPA’s CO2 regulations that will increase everybody’s electric rates without significantly reducing future temperatures. A pillar in his argument is CO2’s alleged role in … [Read more...]
NY Climate Conference? Ain’t Nobody Got Time for That!
Read the news. The. World. Is. A. Disaster. But, according to President Obama, “the world’s always been messy … we’re just noticing now in part because of social media.” #what?

Perplexed by reports that “conservative, evangelical Christians” spoke out in favor of the federal EPA’s new proposed rule requiring 30% cuts in CO2emissions from power plants by 2030? There’s a pretty easy explanation, the old newspaper editor’s rule … [Read more...]
Book Review: The Great Global Warming Blunder: How Mother Nature Fooled the World’s Top Climate Scientists
Roy Spencer is “taking his case to the public” with this book, which presents his very thorough explanation of why the climate models are wrong, and why the PDO (Pacific Decadal Oscillation) is the cause of far more of the temperature pattern seen in the 20th century than rising atmospheric carbon dioxide. The book is written for the layman, which just about triples its length. Of course, a scientist need not read all that. Spencer gives a few elementary explanations about water heating on a … [Read more...]
