Jo Nova: $700,000 for believers to convert skeptics – but nothing for skeptical science

From the 2011 Australian Research Council report: as much as $45,700,000 was spent on An Environmentally Sustainable Australia in 2011.

The cash cow that is “Climate Change” is so loaded that over a six year period, $718,000 dollars of ARC funds has flowed to “believers” (their terminology) to study and convert dissenters. Continue reading

Jo Nova: Man-made sea-level rises are due to global adjustments

Frank Lansner’s first graph surprised me. It’s well known and often quoted that sea levels have been rising by 2-3mm a year every year for the last 20 years. But it’s not well known that the original raw satellite data doesn’t show that at all. Continue reading

Hans Joachim Schellnhuber wants stronger green hammer

Hans Joachim Schellnhuber wants stronger green hammer

Professor John Schellnhuber has been the European version of James Hansen for some time and was at one time research director for the UK Tyndall Center. He founded the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research at the end of 1992, as money came on-stream following the Rio conference on sustainability, which spawned Agenda 21.  He reveals his one world aims at this Renewable Energy Finance seminar of the “bank-run Frankfurt School of Finance, attended mostly by representatives of the solar and wind branches, as well as lawyers — for an entrance fee of 500 euros each”.

He heads the German Chancellor’s “de-industrialisaton council”, which speaks volumes. Continue reading

Pierre Gosselin: Comprehensive Alps Study Clearly Refutes Humans Are Causing More Weather Variability And Extremes!

A new paper authored by Reinhard Böhm of the Austrian Central Administration For Meteorology (ZAMG) refutes the notion that anthropogenic warming is causing an increase of climate extremes and making weather more variable and extreme. Continue reading

Yale study concludes public apathy over climate change unrelated to science literacy

Are members of the public divided about climate change because they don’t understand the science behind it? If Americans knew more basic science and were more proficient in technical reasoning, would public consensus match scientific consensus? Continue reading

Andrew Bolt: I’ve had it up to back teeth on climate

CLIMATE commissioner Tim Flannery has found some of those “green jobs” we’re told will be created in an eco-friendly world – it’s pulling teeth from corpses. Continue reading

The Resource Management Act should prevent activities that advance global warming, argues Debs Martin. Continue reading

Lorrie Goldstein: Canadians care more about clean water, air and soil than global warming

Anyone who’s been paying attention for the past five years — which excludes most politicians and media — knows Canadians are more concerned about air, water and soil pollution than climate change. Continue reading

NASA hit for sloppy hyping of global warming

Several former top NASA executives and scientists, including Gemini, Apollo and Space Shuttle managers and astronauts, are accusing the agency of sloppy and imprecise science in promoting global warming alarms and are also charging NASA’s chief scientist with hypocrisy for warning of a climate change catastrophe. Continue reading

Is China poor? Key question at climate talks

Another round of U.N. climate talks closed without resolving how to share the burden of curbing man-made global warming, mainly because countries don’t agree on who is rich and who is poor. Continue reading

Bonn climate talks end in discord and disappointment

For Qatar, climate forum offers a test but also a chance

As the world’s biggest emitter per capita of greenhouse gases, Qatar faces a test of credibility but also an opportunity when it hosts the UN forum on climate change in December, say veteran watchers of the process. Continue reading

Myles Allen: We shouldn’t fret about the carbon footprint of Will.i.am’s helicopter

Nagging people about their carbon footprint, or worrying about your own, is essentially irrelevant to the issue of climate change

To this point Miles Allen has it exactly right – emissions of carbon dioxide are irrelevant to global climate. This is because the scary scenarios generated by climate models are blatant lies fabricated by inflating earth’s sensitivity to increased forcing to truly absurd levels, inter alia. Allen then digresses into the nonsense of carbon capture and sequestration, something humans should never do. Continue reading
