Climate Change

Reflected Sunlight Shines on IPCC Deceptions and Inadequacies – August 30, 2010
Sadly, there are many factors affecting climate change that the IPCC ignore or underplay to achieve the political result that human CO2 is the sole cause. [T]hey ignore many variables and admit they know little about the ones they study. It is a total abrogation of scientific and social responsibility to let these results form the basis for draconian and destructive energy and environmental policies.
Climate Change and History; Uncertain Weather, Uncertain Times – August 23, 2010
As the average location of the Arctic air front moved inexorably toward the Equator the Jet Stream meandered further north and south so temperature and precipitation fluctuated widely from year to year. It also resulted in more blocking systems so that instead of weather patterns changing on a 4 to 6 week cycle in the middle latitudes they became prolonged to 12 weeks and longer. This meant in many years it became difficult to tell summers from winters.
Environmental Lessons From The Late Stephen Schneider – August 19, 2010
"Stephen Schneider is on record that, to reduce the risk of climate change, it’s legitimate to quash one’s own doubts and offer up scary scenarios to the media. That is not exactly objective science."
Tipping Points Are Natural; Environmentalists Exploit Them – July 26, 2010
"The hypothesis that dangerous human-caused climate change will create rapid change beyond the adaptive capacity of human society and natural systems is based on two fallacies."
A Green Retreat – July 19, 2010
With green politics losing its moral high ground, there is a growing realization that climate change is just one policy priority among many that compete for limited resources and attention. That means, first, that climate politics will likely fall off its pedestal of being the Western world’s overarching priority. Second, the new sobriety could give more space to a third stream of climate politics between those who see warming as an unmitigated catastrophe that must be stopped at any cost, and those who reject global warming as a hoax.
Politicizing The Climate Science Debate Has Boosted Alarmism – July 16, 2010
When the political affiliations of the most outspoken participants are examined, be they special interest lobbyists, scientists, politicians, media or even ordinary citizens, political polarization is readily apparent.
Climate Science Hits New Desperate Low – July 12, 2010
"Polls show people are no longer concerned by claims humans are causing global warming or climate change. They consistently place very low or are not even listed. Most still don’t understand the science, but a couple of cold winters raised doubts."
Climate Change: The IPCC In The Age of Speculation – June 28, 2010
"It’s astonishing how many facts are believed real when they were only speculation in a media report or in an IPCC Report. Too often it’s a ‘fact’ supporting a false or misleading headline or assumption."
Leading Experts Rapidly Endorsing 'Climate Scientist's Register' – June 27, 2010
"The Climate Scientists’ Register, started one month ago by International Climate Science Coalition (ICSC), has just passed its first 100 expert endorsers."
Climate Science and the IPCC Fail Legal Cross Examination – June 21, 2010
"Legal analysis looks at the evidence, the motive and the modus operandi. Both these examples do this with perception and clarity to expose the extent to which climate science was perverted for political ends. The analysis indicates actions were deliberate and premeditated."
Meet the Green Who Doubts ‘The Science’ – June 13, 2010
"The science around climate change is not as settled as it’s presented as being. I used to think it was, until about 2003 – and then, feeling that the remedies being proposed for climate change would be more damaging to the environment than climate change itself, I took it upon myself to look at the science."
Climate Change Agenda Exploits Incorrect Assumptions – June 1, 2010
"Constant change to new paradigms is the way scientific knowledge and understanding advance. Questioning, or even initially resisting, the new paradigm is natural and even somewhat necessary."
IPCC Side Ducks Out of Chicago Conference on Climate Change – May 28, 2010
A recent conference on climate change was supposed to highlight competing views on climate change science. Unfortunately, defenders of the IPCC generally refused to participate.
Latest U.S. Carbon Bill More Bad Policy – May 27, 2010
"It is predicated on the false assumption that an increase in CO2 causes a temperature increase. Every record of any duration for any period in Earth’s history shows temperature increases before CO2 increases."
Political, Media, and Bureaucratic Distortions of Weather and Climate – May 19, 2010
"There is always concern about the current conditions and the belief that they are abnormal. Now people are deliberately led to believe that the conditions are abnormal to perpetuate the claims that humans are causing the change."
'Lack of climate change consensus' puts feds, Alta. on collision course; – May 17, 2010
"Equalization and climate change policy are two areas of increasing federal-provincial tension. Albertans want their province to play a leadership role in finding solutions."
How Much Does Climate Change Naturally? – May 12, 2010
"There is no doubt humans alter the world, however, it is far less than depicted in environmentalist reports and documentaries."
The Business of Climate Change – April 28, 2010
Global warming has created a breeding ground for political capitalists.
Earth Day Predictions 1970 – April 22, 2010
A collection of doomsday predictions pronounced on the first Earth Day.
Con: Earth is Never in Equilibrium – April 20, 2010
"In a world where we experience temperature changes of tens of degrees in a single day, we treat changes of a few tenths of a degree in some statistical residue, known as the global mean temperature anomaly (GATA), as portents of disaster."
