Climatologists Trying To Understand Why Global Warming Has Stopped
It makes my heart a couple of degrees warmer when I read things like this. Al Gore is such a buffoon. His dumbass phony science is slowly being exposed for the garbage that it is.
As I’ve reported many times on this website, the earth is not f*cking warming. All the climate change fear mongers and their ridiculous computer models were not just wrong — they were dead wrong.
Spiegel Online has a great piece about the climate change debate and how many in the scientific community are being forced to come to grips with the truth.
As you read the piece remember what dumbass Al Gore likes to say — “the science is settled.”
What people must realize is that the global warming debate has nothing to do with the weather or the climate. The same people who howl about global warming were howling about global cooling 25 years ago.
What “cap and trade” and the phony “green” movement is really about is redistribution of wealth. Global warming is simply a means to an end for the radical left to get the “redistributive change” they’ve been seeking all these years.
Lately, the term used most often by leftist eco-warrior’s is “environmental justice” which is a close cousin of “social justice” — both of which mean redistribution of wealth.
In fact, Obama’s former Marxist “green jobs” czar Van Jones explains it better than I ever could:
Don’t fall for the nonsense. These environmental whackos want money and power and they’ll destroy the entire world economy in the name of phony science to get it.
BBC Notices Global Warming Is Phony
Kudos to the BBC for straying from the Al Gore talking points.
Apple Quits Chamber Of Commerce Over Phony Climate Change
Apple made a big show of quitting the U.S. Chamber of Commerce today, because the business group refuses to drink the Kool-Aid and embrace Al Gore’s junk science.
Apple Inc on Monday became the latest company to quit the U.S. Chamber of Commerce because the technology company disagrees with the business group’s climate change policy.
"We would prefer that the chamber take a more progressive stance on this critical issue and play a constructive role in addressing the climate crisis," Catherine Novelli, a vice president of government affairs at Apple, wrote in a letter dated Monday to the business group.
Novelli wrote that Apple resigned its membership in the business group "effective immediately."
Last month three big power utilities, Exelon Corp, PG&E Corp and PNM Resources Inc, said they were leaving the chamber over the group’s stance on climate.
Everyone knows the Apple folks are a bunch of tree-hugging libs — so this is no great shock. What I find amusing and even a little disturbing are the power utilities who left The Chamber.
How bizarre is it that power companies are embracing an ideology that seeks to shut them down? I can’t believe they could really buy into the climate change BS. I suspect this is about politics. They figure if they pretend to tow the line maybe Obama won’t regulate them out of business. Sadly, they’re mistaken. The environmental whack jobs are running wild right now and they’ll destroy our country if given the chance.
Global warming is phony and the science behind it is phony. The environmental extremist movement has nothing to do with the environment, and everything to do with redistribution of wealth and “social justice”.
The earth is actually cooling right now — not warming.
That said, I plan to embrace the green movement by saving some, and not buying any Apple products.
UN Climate Prediction: “We Have 4 Months To Secure Future Of Our Planet”
The idiots at the UN held their Global Environment Forum yesterday where leaders waxed poetic about the dire consequences of global warming — phony global warming.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon gave a speech about the perils of climate change and patted himself and the UN on the back for making a phony issue real.
The highlight of the speech was this:
We have just four months. Four months to secure the future of our planet.
I’m glad to hear it. I hope this means we can stop talking about phony climate change in four months.
Study: Enormous Funding For ‘Climate Change’ Has Distorted The Science
The Science and Public Policy Institute has published a new study called Climate Money that shows the connection between climate alarmism and money.
It found that the enormous sums spent on ‘climate change’ research (more than $79 billion) has distorted the science towards “self-serving alarmism.”
Here are the key findings from the study:
Ø The US Government has spent more than $79 billion of taxpayers’ money since 1989 on policies related to climate change, including science and technology research, administration, propaganda campaigns, foreign aid, and tax breaks. Most of this spending was unnecessary.
Ø Despite the billions wasted, audits of the science are left to unpaid volunteers. A dedicated but largely uncoordinated grassroots movement of scientists has sprung up around the globe to test the integrity of “global warming” theory and to compete with a lavishly-funded, highly-organized climate monopsony. Major errors have been exposed again and again.
Ø Carbon trading worldwide reached $126 billion in 2008. Banks, which profit most, are calling for more. Experts are predicting the carbon market will reach $2 – $10 trillion in the near future. Hot air will soon be the largest single commodity traded on global exchanges.
Ø Meanwhile, in a distracting sideshow, Exxon-Mobil Corp is repeatedly attacked for paying just $23 million to skeptics—less than a thousandth of what the US government spends on alarmists, and less than one five-thousandth of the value of carbon trading in 2008 alone.
Ø The large expenditure designed to prove the non-existent connection between carbon and climate has created a powerful alliance of self-serving vested interests.
Ø By pouring so much money into pushing a single, scientifically-baseless agenda, the Government has created not an unbiased investigation but a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Ø Sound science cannot easily survive the vice-like grip of politics and finance.
Global warming is phony, the science behind it is phony, liberals who believe it are phony, and Al Gore is a lying tool.
Green is the new red and progressives are using global warming as an excuse to gain a vice like grip on every aspect of our lives.
G8 Leaders Agree To Control Earth’s Temperature
This via the Times Online:
President Obama and other leaders backed historic new targets for tackling global warming last night in an agreement designed to pave the way for a world deal in the autumn.
For the first time, America and the other seven richest economies agreed to the goal of keeping the world’s average temperature from rising more than 2C (3.6F).
This is truly historic. This marks the first time in world history that the leaders of the 8 richest countries have agreed to tackle a problem that doesn’t really exist.
Even if global warming weren’t a total sham, the idea that 8 men have the power to control the temperature of the earth is so absurd I question their sanity.
Since we’re talking about phony global warming, I highly recommend the new book “Green Hell” by Steven Milloy.
Green really is the new red.

Climate Change Debate Happening Now, Call Congress and Tell Them To Vote NO
Tune-in to CSPAN right now to listen to the Cap and Trade debate before an expected vote later today.
Global warming is phony and the people who buy into it are fools. This is a left-wing takeover of the energy industry.
All this talk of “green jobs” is ridiculous. The Obama “climate change” bill is going to destroy our economy and will do nothing to improve the environment.
It’s time to melt the phone lines in Washington. Tell Congress to vote NO on this phony climate change crap.
Also, Michelle Malkin is live blogging the debate

World Finally Realizing That Global Warming Is A Scam
The U.S. may have a bunch of dumbasses running it for the moment, but fortunately the rest of the world does not.
The Wall Street Journal has an excellent piece today about the swell of global warming skepticism that is sweeping across the world. The article coincides with Congress’s vote today on “Cap and Trade” legislation to cut carbon emissions so that Al Gore can sleep better at night.
Hundreds of leading scientists around the world are finally speaking up and refusing to be intimidated by climate zealots.
The number of skeptics, far from shrinking, is swelling. Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe now counts more than 700 scientists who disagree with the U.N. — 13 times the number who authored the U.N.’s 2007 climate summary for policymakers. Joanne Simpson, the world’s first woman to receive a Ph.D. in meteorology, expressed relief upon her retirement last year that she was finally free to speak "frankly" of her nonbelief. Dr. Kiminori Itoh, a Japanese environmental physical chemist who contributed to a U.N. climate report, dubs man-made warming "the worst scientific scandal in history." Norway’s Ivar Giaever, Nobel Prize winner for physics, decries it as the "new religion." A group of 54 noted physicists, led by Princeton’s Will Happer, is demanding the American Physical Society revise its position that the science is settled. (Both Nature and Science magazines have refused to run the physicists’ open letter.)
The collapse of the "consensus" has been driven by reality. The inconvenient truth is that the earth’s temperatures have flat-lined since 2001, despite growing concentrations of C02. Peer-reviewed research has debunked doomsday scenarios about the polar ice caps, hurricanes, malaria, extinctions, rising oceans. A global financial crisis has politicians taking a harder look at the science that would require them to hamstring their economies to rein in carbon.
The entire global warming frenzy has nothing to do with real science and everything to do with flawed computer models. Al Gore has earned himself more than $100 million since his time as Vice President by peddling this phony science all around the world.
Every single member of Congress who votes in favor of Obama’s ridiculous climate bill should be thrown out of office in the next election.

Democrats Won’t Allow Climate Change Skeptic To Testify With Al Gore At Congressional Hearing
Most clear thinking Americans know in their gut the global warming hysteria is a fraud and a scam based on junk science. Those same Americans also know that Al Gore’s contention that the issue is settled and requires no further debate is absurd and outrageous.
The fact is more and more top scientists are refusing to be bullied anymore and have their careers threatened for calling the global warming threat what it is — bullshit.
Global warming ceased being about science years ago and became a pseudo-religion and political ideology. Therefore, anything or anyone that poses a threat to the global warming narrative must be stopped.
Congress began debating the president’s proposed cap and trade system (also known as a massive energy tax) to curb CO2 emissions which will allegedly stop global warming.
Democrats of course, are planning to trot out Al Gore to give dire predictions of the coming apocalypse. Gore’s increasingly hysterical predictions are all phony and have been proven false by real science.
Republicans invited Lord Christopher Monckton from the UK., a former science advisor to Margaret Thatcher, to testify alongside Al Gore during the congressional hearings. Unfortunately, democrats have decided at the eleventh hour to block Monckton from testifying.
Once his plane touched down in Washington he was informed that he would no longer be allowed to testify. Monckton says the democrats are cowards, and just don’t want Al Gore to be humiliated.
Monckton says that all of Gore’s claims which are based solely on biased and absurd computer models have been proven completely false by hard science.
“The Democrats have a lot to learn about the right of free speech under the US Constitution. Congress Henry Waxman’s (D-CA) refusal to expose Al Gore’s sci-fi comedy-horror testimony to proper, independent scrutiny by the House minority reeks of naked fear,” Monckton said from the airport Thursday evening.
“Waxman knows there has been no ‘global warming’ for at least a decade. Waxman knows there has been seven and a half years’ global cooling. Waxman knows that, in the words of the UK High Court judge who condemned Gore’s mawkish movie as materially, seriously, serially inaccurate, ‘the Armageddon scenario that he depicts is not based on any scientific view…
A report released in January shows that despite Gore’s claims that Arctic sea ice is rapidly melting, sea ice at the end of 2008 was at the same level as in 1979.
If democrats are so confident that global warming is real and humans are the cause, why are they so afraid to have that view challenged?

More Global Warming Scare Mongering From AP
Here’s this week’s global warming scare piece from the AP. It’s only Monday so I’m sure there’s plenty more where this came from.
Video: Czech President Attacks Al Gore’s Silly Climate Change Plan
You have to give major kudos to president Klaus of the Czech Republic for having the courage to speak out against Al Gore and his climate change mythology.
Video: Al Gore Spreads Global Warming Propaganda On Capital Hill
I had to burst out laughing when I heard this clown on Capital Hill yesterday spreading his global warming lies. Senators from both sides were hanging on to his every word as if a great prophet was in their midst. It’s mind numbing that so many people can fall for this stuff. The founder of The Weather Channel wrote an interesting Op-Ed today about Gore’s testimony and how foolish people are to buy into it.
