Global Warmists Flee The Arctic And Move To California

The Arctic is having record cold this summer.      The cold is going to produce the most Arctic summer sea ice in a decade. After being obsessed with the Arctic and Polar bears for years, there is no mention of this in the press. 78% of the US has been below normal temperature over the last 10 months. Almost the entire country except for    ... MORE

The Scandal Of Fiddled Global Warming Data

by Christopher Booker.    A very cold truth. When future generations try to understand how the world got carried away around the end of the 20th century by the panic over global warming, few things will amaze them more than the part played in stoking up the scare by the fiddling of official temperature data. There was already much evidence    ... MORE

Another Inconvenient Truth For Global Warmists

by Mark Prigg.    Great Lakes finally ice-free after record freeze. It has been a long, cold winter for much of America - but the Great Lakes have really suffered. Forecasters finally revealed today that all of the Great Lakes including Lake Superior are now ice free. It marks the end of a record breaking 7 month stretch where the lakes were covered    ...

William Sullivan: Tilting At Climate Windmills

Another round of hope and change, anyone?        The sheer egotism in big government mouthpieces claiming that they can rescue mankind from all the natural threats which afflict us should be laughable.  And make no mistake -- for many of us, it is. For my money, the humor in such egotism doesn’t get any more obvious than then-governor  ... MORE

James Conca: It's Final -- Corn Ethanol Is Of No Use

It's always been about subsidies, not the environment.   OK, can we please stop pretending biofuel made from corn is helping the planet and the environment? The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released two of its Working Group reports at the end of last month (WGI and WGIII), and their short discussion of    ...

S. Fred Singer: Climate Consensus Con Game

Science is not a product of consensus.    Or fashionable thinking. At the outset, let's be quite clear: There is no consensus about dangerous anthropogenic global warming (DAGW) -- and there never was.  There is not even a consensus on whether human activities, such as burning fossil fuels to produce useful energy, affect global climate        ...

Obama's Scorched Bird Policy To Fight Climate Change

Solar farm efficient at frying passing birds.      Environmentalists have hit out at a giant new solar farm in the Mojave Desert as mounting evidence reveals birds flying through the extremely hot 'thermal flux' surrounding the towers are being scorched. After years of regulatory tangles around the impact on desert wildlife, the Ivanpah Solar  ... MORE

John Stossel: Chill Out About Global Warming

Love nature but hate the tyranny of bureaucrats' rules.     We already waste billions on pointless gestures that make people think we're addressing global warming, but the earth doesn't notice or care. What exactly is "global warming" anyway? That's really four questions: 1. Is the globe warming? Probably. Global temperatures have risen.      ... MORE

Andrew Thomas: The Global Warming Tipping Point Is Near

Al Gore Closes Climate Protection Field Offices.        Malcolm Gladwell's great book The Tipping Point presents the case that sudden seismic shifts in society can result from small events, if the right factors are present.  Tipping points happen when momentum toward an idea builds and finally crosses a threshold where it is evident that a    ...

Historic Deep Freeze Proves Global Warming, Right?

Mike Adams on how everything is evidence.       Global warming is getting worse. It's so bad now that it has thrust most of North America into an historic deep freeze with plummeting temperatures that haven't been seen in decades. This is absolute proof that global warming is worsening, and the way I know that is because the same people  ... MORE

Global Warming: Another Broken Promise From The Left

from Brian Lada, meteorologist.       A fresh blast of arctic air will deliver some of the coldest weather in 20 years to the country's midsection during the second half of the weekend and into the start of this week. This brutal cold will bring danger to millions from the northern Plains to the Midwest and down into the Tennessee Valley.        ... MORE

American Taxpayers Blew $7.45 Billion On What?

Fighting global warming in other countries. American taxpayers spent $7.45 billion to help developing countries cope with climate change in fiscal years 2010 through 2012, according to a federal government report submitted to the United Nations on a subject that Secretary of State John Kerry described as “a truly life-and-death challenge.” ...

Global Warming Scientists Trapped In Antarctic Ice

P. J. Gladnick on an inconvenient irony.     Somewhere far, far to the south where it is summer, a group of global warming scientists are trapped in the Antarctic ice. If you missed the irony of that situation, it is because much of the mainstream media has glossed over that rather inconvenient bit of hilarity. As an example here is an Associated   ... MORE

Top Seven Global Warming Alarmist Setbacks In 2013

by Michael Bastasch.          Hold your champagne glasses high this holiday season, because the end of 2013 marks the 17th year without global warming. This year has been trying for climate scientists and environmentalists who have been trying hard to explain away the 17-year hiatus in global warming and link “extreme weather” to rising     ...

Wesley Pruden: A Global Warming Scam That Will Not Die

We were all supposed to be dead by now,      fried to a toasty potatolike chip. Or doomed to die with the polar bears. It was to be a soggy end for the most beautiful planet in the cosmos and for all the passengers riding on it. The global alarmists never quite got their story of fright and fear straight, whether by now we would be fried or  ... MORE

Climate Bullies, The Surrealists Of Science

Science geeks stand up against global bullies.           Popular perceptions about climate appear surrealistic to me. I'm a seasoned science geek who has been involved in big-time climate modeling, serious mathematics, theory, and more. Popular discussions of this subject have come to look like a Salvador Dali painting, as once noted by     ... MORE

Walter E Williams: Our Fragile Planet

And our even more fragile capitalistic system.     Let's examine a few statements reflecting a vision thought to be beyond question. "The world that we live in is beautiful but fragile." "The 3rd rock from the sun is a fragile oasis." Here are a couple of Earth Day quotes: "Remember that Earth needs to be saved every single day." "Remember the      ... MORE
