Al Gore gave an update of his bogus "Inconvenient Truth" slideshow presentation at the close of the RSA computer security conference today -- on the condition that the press not be allowed in. So, since there's no video of Gore's updated global warming scaremongering, I present to you this lecture from a second-rate scientist in […]
Friday's Wall Street Journal editorial page highlights a Kansas problem that we Californians are familiar with. Governor Kathleen Sebelius calls it "a moral obligation," as though she were opposing crimes against humanity. This is a reference to coal companies guilty of nothing more than attempting to provide power to consumers. But their misfortunes include emitting […]
Media mogul and nutjob Ted Turner has a ranch on which he raises animals which emit a lot of greenhouse gases. However, he does not propose to do away with his herds to save the planet. No, he predicts doom and gloom and humans resorting to cannibalism to survive once the Earth warms. Channeling my […]
That global warming thing has apparently forgotten Michigan. Normally in March, we get about 8.3 inches of snow, said Dennis Kahlbaum, a University of Michigan weather observer. So far in March, with more than a week to go, we've seen 16.7 inches of fluffy precipitation. A good chunk of that came Friday night and early […]
Some NASA robots are looking for the global warming in the area where the globe should warm the most -- the oceans. Problem: They're not finding any. Some 3,000 scientific robots that are plying the ocean have sent home a puzzling message. These diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all […]
A number of the world's most eminent scientists -- who don't buy into the "consensus" human-induced alarmism that Al Gore touts with regard to climate change -- have written a letter that everyone should read. In short, the scientists say that the best way to save lives due to climate change isn't to reduce greenhouse […]
The media and environmentalists like to bash the United States -- and President George W. Bush especially -- over the fact that we haven't signed onto the Kyoto Treaty. It turns out that all this fury is more about appearances than it actually is about damage done. From the American Thinker we have these inconvenient […]
Ross McKitrick has an op-ed piece in Canada's National Post on a serious problem with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's latest report. In the first draft of the IPCC report, they simply claimed that, while city data are distorted by urban warming, this does not affect the global averages. They cited two familiar studies […]
The latest travel news out of Bali, Indonesia, is that people flying there on their private jets for the U.N. Conference on Climate Change will have to park their planes somewhere else -- they don't have enough room on the tarmac for all of them. The operational manager for Bali's Airport, Azjar Effendi, says his […]
I'd guess that the answer is no. (via Newsbusters) Time magazine, November 26, 2007 (Michael Grunwald): [Georgia's] drought was a natural event transformed into a natural disaster by human folly. And while it's still hard to say whether global warming caused any particular drought or flood or fire, it's going to cause more of all […]
