A mere twelve weeks had passed since he gaveled the close of the second International Conference on Climate Change in NYC.  Yet last Tuesday found Joseph Bast already delivering the opening speech to its follow-up event, again featuring an elite group of scientists, economists and politicians gathered to discuss climate science and policy.  But this time he stood in DC’s Washington Court Hotel, just blocks away from the chamber in which Democrats will soon attempt to pass the very legislation compelling this urgent session – the Waxman-Markey Cap-and-Trade bill.

If you listen to liberals, they are the "reality-based" people.  They contrast themselves to conservatives, who they claim are ideology-based or faith-based.

According to blogger Joe Romm of Climate Progress, websites and writers daring to question greenhouse gas orthodoxy are guilty of endangering the "health and well-being of countless billions of people."  And in a surprisingly erratic response to recent criticism, the dangerous "deniers" this modern day prophet of doom singles out for suppression are American Thinker and its new environment editor.

Rise of sea levels is 'the greatest lie ever told' 

The uncompromising verdict of Dr Mörner is that all this talk about the sea rising is nothing but a colossal scare story, writes Christopher Booker.

Funny how you have to go to England to get this information.  The MSM in the US just can't be bothered.

Clear Thinking on Global Warming

Randall Hoven
Many people write sensible things about anthropogenic global warming, but I find Professor William Happer's statement to the US Senate on February 25, 2009, especially clear and convincing .

Happer is the Cyrus Fogg Bracket Professor of Physics at Princeton University.  He was also the Director of Energy Research at DOE from 1990-93, where he supervised all of DOE's work on climate change.  He says this:

Carbon Regulation: One Scientist's Unscientific Dream?

By Marc Sheppard

There's an understandably growing unease about the likely prospect that the Obama administration will soon choose to regulate CO2 as a pollutant.  But that disquiet would likely turn quickly to rage if more people knew the truth about the scientific conclusions on which this unprecedented incursion on both industry and individual freedom was based.  You see, it appears that those conclusions weren't based on accepted scientific procedure at all, but were instead predetermined -- and perhaps by a single man.

A. Is it so cold that people are burning Al Gore's book to stay warn!

This cartoon is hilarious.

Let's start with the current favorite, Global Warming.  Oops, Sorry.  I meant to say Climate Change.  The MSM have bought this myth hook, line and sinker.  However, there are plenty of scientists out there who have given the data an unbiased once over.  Guess what?  Al Gore is wrong.

Here are some links to show you how there is NO CONSENSUS on AGW and man is NOT killing polar bears or the planet.

 

Let's start here with the "Climate Change issue with a visit to Environmental and Public Works.

Then, we will stop by the home of Dr. Roy Spencer.  Dr. Spencer is a climatologist, and former employee of NASA.

    PERSONAL NOTE: I’ve been unavailable for a while…my oldest daughter was in a bad car accident, will be OK eventually, but won’t walk for about 3 months. So, I might not be answering queries. The global average lower tropospheric temperature anomaly for January, 2012 took a precipitous plunge, not totally unexpected for a La Nina January [...]

    The global average lower tropospheric temperature anomaly for December, 2011 remained about the same November, +0.13 deg. C (click on the image for the full-size version): The 3rd order polynomial fit to the data (courtesy of Excel) is for entertainment purposes only, and should not be construed as having any predictive value whatsoever. Here are the monthly [...]

  • Why Atmospheric Pressure Cannot Explain the Elevated Surface Temperature of the Earth

    - Fri, 30 Dec 2011 14:35:49 +0000

    Ned Nikolov’s alternative theory that compression of the lower atmosphere can account for the Earth’s surface temperature being about 33 deg. C higher than calculations suggest it should be (based upon the rate at which sunlight is absorbed) is an admittedly attractive one. The role of pressure on the average surface temperature of the Earth has [...]

    The UAH satellite-based global temperature dataset has reached 1/3 of a century in length, a milestone we marked with a press release in the last week (e.g. covered here). As a result of that press release, a Capital Weather Gang blog post by Andrew Freedman was dutifully dispatched as damage control, since we had inconveniently [...]
