Notable Quote: David Solway on Global Warming Climatologists

By Mike Gray Some are credulous do-gooders who truly believe in the delusion of global warming and will fudge or obscure the facts they find inadmissible in order to preserve their messianic agenda. Soothsayers with an ostensibly noble mission whose auguries are constantly trumped by reality, they are impervious to doubt or reason — just as in the 1970s when they were earnestly warning that the earth was about to freeze over and we should all stock up on parkas and Coleman heaters. These poor…

Has ClimateGate Metastasized — Payback at OSU?

By Mike Gray If Art Robinson‘s allegations are true, this could spin into a major scandal. Robinson ran against Peter DeFazio and lost last fall: On Nov. 4, 2010, as soon as the election results were in and they were sure their candidate had won, faculty administrators at Oregon State University gave new meaning to the term “political payback.” They initiated an attack on my three children – Joshua, Bethany and Matthew – for the purpose of throwing them all out of the OSU graduate…

Climate of Alarm

By Mike Gray Four Texas A&M geographers recently estimated, after making arbitrary baseline assumptions, that “it will probably be decades before distinct changes from the current [30-year baseline] warming rate become apparent,” and they stated, therefore, that “we should expect decades to pass before impacts of the war against global warming become apparent”: So what are the implications they derive from this result? First of all, as they say in one place, the war against global warming “will require a sustained commitment to stringent climate…

EPA Administrator Still Maintains Man-Made Global Warming “Endangers Public Health and Welfare” — Plus, A Dipole Moment for Reflection

By Mike Gray At a press conference, the administrator of the EPA performed the Obama Shuffle when asked about so-called “global warming”: Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson has again evaded answering a question about whether she agrees with one of the world’s most prominent climate scientists that there has been no statistically significant global warming since 1995. On Capitol Hill today, CNSNews.com asked Jackson, “Do you agree with Phil Jones of East Anglia University that there has been no statistically significant global warming since…

Notable Quote: Victor Davis Hanson on “Global Warming” versus “Climate Change”

People who respect language and live in the real world, such as Victor Hanson, are frequently baffled by how truth is always the first casualty in contemporary political discourse. Hanson recently noted: “There are a number of improbables, anomalies, paradoxes, ironies, absurdities — call them what you wish — on the national scene that simply defy reason. We usually fault an ignorant media as culpable for creating narratives that have no basis in fact and yet are rarely questioned.” With regard to the weather: When…

The Climate Con Con

By Mike Gray On Townhall Daily, Duggan Flanakin notes the closure of the “climate conference” in Mexico, which he characterizes as a “clever political con job” organized and suborned by “power-hungry elitists [who] labored behind the scenes” to implement its real purpose: “redistributing the world’s wealth and natural resources.” A co-chair of the conference admitted as much and even used those very words. But socialists and anarchists alone don’t benefit from the climate con: When billionaires Ted Turner and Richard Branson tried to discuss ways…

The Real Prospect of “Bellum Omnium Contra Omnes”

On Pajamas Media, Marlo Lewis highlights the baleful implications of a pending Supreme Court ruling, which “would be a boon to ambulance chasers both at home and abroad but a bane to the U.S. economy. It would also further erode our constitutional system of democratic accountability.” But as bad as that is: “In addition, climate policy would be made by persons even less accountable than the non-elected bureaucrats at EPA, who at least depend on congressional appropriations for their budgets and salaries. We would have…

Notable Quote: Ed Driscoll to Ted Turner

Ted Turner spoke to the “global warming” conference in Mexico, declaring “the climate situation is about life and death.” Ed Driscoll’s reply: “If it’s life and death, then act that way, Ted. Time to retire the private jet. Since self-described climate experts have claimed that ‘meat [is] making global warming worse,’ time to close the giant bison ranch and restaurants. There’s a stadium in Atlanta with your name on it. Demand that they disable their lights. Although you no longer own the TV networks you…

Efforts to Rebrand “Global Warming” Continue Apace

by Mike Gray The new shibboleth is “biodiversity”; in its name, millions of people could die: After three decades of trying to push the global warming scam to a point where billions could be made selling and trading bogus “carbon credits,” the global schemers have abandoned it in the wake of 2009 revelations that a handful of rogue climate scientists were literally inventing the data to support it. . . . . In June, the delegates from 200 nations gathered in Busan, a South Korean…

Yet Another Blacklisted “Global Warming” Denier Weighs In

by Mike Gray The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for years has been predicting the greenhouse effect can spin out of control. They claim that there exists a scientific consensus that CO2 is pushing the planet into an unrestrained greenhouse effect, that it’s raising global temperatures and it must be stopped. IPCC was created in the 1980s by the United Nations. They have released findings that say that carbon-based emissions released into the atmosphere by humans, mostly in wealthy, Western countries, must be reduced,…

“Eco-fascism Jumps the Shark” — And Watch Out for That Red Button!

by Mike Gray At Pajamas Media, Zombie alerts us to a “global warming” ad campaign for which the producers have already issued an apology: ’10:10′ is a campaign to get people around the world to lower their carbon consumption by 10% in the year 2010. Global Warming and all that, you see. It’s quite a large, well-organized movement, funded in part by the British government. This morning, the ’10:10′ campaign released “No Pressure,” a much-anticipated video promoting thenotion of compliance to the carbon-reduction drive, a…

“Beyond Political Solutions” — The United Nations Ponders a Cure for Climate Change

by Mike Gray The philosophers have only interpreted the world in various ways; the point, however, is to change it. — Karl Marx At GetLiberty.org, Robert Romano tells us about the longer-term aims of those dedicated social engineers at the United Nations: Last week, an exclusive report by FOXNews.com’s George Russell uncovered a startling series of background papers that were distributed at United Nations (UN) Secretary General Ban ki-Moon’s retreat in Alpbach, Austria over Labor Day weekend. The papers reveal an agenda to direct global…

Is Anthropogenic Global Warming Alarmism a ‘New Kind of Morality’?

by Mike Gray Here’s a documentary now available on Retrovision mostly featuring “heretics” (the term used by former climate scare monger Nigel Calder, who has evidently seen the light) about AGW. The Great Global Warming Swindle (2007) exculpates carbon dioxide (also known as “plant food”) as any kind of cause of global warming (the mega-minds at the Environmental Protection Agency notwithstanding), inculpates the sun as the prime suspect of observed climate change, points the finger at politicos of both the Right and the Left as…

Inconvenient Facts About Global Warming

As promised yesterday, here is my report from the fourth International Conference on Climate Change, reprinted with permission from Pajamas Media, where an earlier version of it appeared. This version includes exclusive new material not available previously. In the wake of the Climategate scandal, panelists and audience members at the Fourth International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC4) indicated growing confidence that the tide is turning in favor of those who believe that manmade global warming is not a crisis. More than 700 people — including a…

Climate Realism: Not to Be Denied Any Longer

Last week’s meeting of 700+ scientists, policymakers, and concerned citizens in Chicago to discuss the science and economics of global warming at the Fourth International Conference on Climate Change was a huge success as measured by the intent of its sponsors: to establish once and for all that the climate realist position is increasingly the accepted conclusion among thinking people in the three categories noted above. That position is this: manmade global warming is not a crisis. Yes, all parties at the conference pretty much…
