The Great Global Warming Swindle

[ashtweth]

Tran-formative measures can be far better managed as opposed to giving junk climate science a carbon tax so money flows to corporations and the technology that can realy make a difference fades into the background.

Aside from the junk science and profit to a select few, the big corporations are unregulated so can then pass the tax down to the consumer in goods and services. Meantime there is no change over to the technologies.

So how do you change over then, the money they got taxed could of been automatically invested in things like Hidro or Industrial hemp REAL pollution reduction options. However its never been about this.

Hence we must show models that out perform their carbon tax, gas fracturing and oil drilling etc, we can ALL do that with Hidro and Industrial hemp, this info we will release to help all. We are going down the industrial hemp this year and raising money to purchase Hidro, these are the REAL carbon negative options. Cheaper electricity too.

cold and snowy spring

I've had snow, sleet, puffed ice (not hail), rain, etc... all on the same day a few times this spring already.

We're 1 month into spring and we haven't even had 60 degree weather yet!

We're all still have to heat our homes because it is too cold without. It is 50
outside right now.

It is supposed to snow again today AND tomorrow!

Would be nice if there was global warming 100 ft radius around me.

And with all bad ideas come bad outcomes

European fraudsters steal $7B in carbon credit scam : Abel Danger
Fraud within Europe's carbon credit trading system has cost taxpayers more than $7 billion in the last 18 months, European police said Friday.

Officials at Europol, the body in charge of co-ordinating police forces inside the European Union, say fraudulent activity on the EU's Emission Trading System was first suspected in late 2008 when police noticed the volume of trades in certain countries would mysteriously spike.

"It is estimated that in some countries, up to 90 per cent of the whole market volume was caused by fraudulent activities," Europol said.

Since late 2008, the total value of fraudulent activity is believed to be in excess of five billion euros ($7.7 billion Cdn) from bogus trades in European unit allowances, or EUAs, the credits that companies in some countries buy to offset their greenhouse gas output

still a very cold spring

I've had snow, sleet, puffed ice (not hail), rain, etc... all on the same day a few times this spring already.

We're 1 month into spring and we haven't even had 60 degree weather yet!

We're all still have to heat our homes because it is too cold without. It is 50
outside right now.

It is supposed to snow again today AND tomorrow!

Would be nice if there was global warming 100 ft radius around me.

It is May 8, just a couple days shy of 3 weeks later and STILL, there has
only been 2 maybe 3 days above 60! It is supposed to already be hitting
the 80's right now!

Its been nothing but cold gloomy skies and rain - it is already a week into
May and many people have NOT even started to plant their gardens yet
because it is too cold!

Here we go again....

Aaron,

You do realize there is a difference between climate and weather don't you?

[Aaron]

climate change

Aaron,

You do realize there is a difference between climate and weather don't you?




Red

Are you serious? Please don't try your childish stunts by putting your
meanings into my words. Please go bother a preschool forum with your
nonsense.

I know what the difference is and the trend has been to FREEZE us out
of this entire area over the last however many years. The entire CLIMATE
of this area has changed and it NOT like it used to be. Climate = temp +
humidity + you name it all together is NOT what it used to be like.

You are have been asked to not interfere with this thread because of
your bogus global warming misinformation attempts that have fell through
the floor - please go bother someone that actually wants to drink your
cool aid - thank you.

I can't say its a great video and loved watching it simply because it is alarming! Its about the possible future of the world! I guess all know about An Inconvenient Truth - the documentary by Avis Guggenheim - on Al Gore's initiative in educating people. All should watch it, it will improve your knowledge about the present condition of the world for sure..

William Connolley – Thoughtcop
December 20, 2009

“And while the future’s there for anyone to change, still you know it seems, it would be easier sometimes to change the past.”

Fountain of Sorrow
Jackson Browne

Thoughtcop - William Connolley

In George Orwell’s 1984 Winston Smith and thousands of co-workers diligently work to re-write history. It has been clear to many that much the same thing has been going on over at Wikipedia. It turns out that one of the champions of the historical rewrite is a fellow by the name of William Connolley, who has taken it upon himself to re-write the thermal history of the planet at Wikipedia to juice-up global warming fears.

Lawrence Solomon, from Canada’s National Post explains…

Connolley took control of all things climate in the most used information source the world has ever known – Wikipedia. Starting in February 2003, just when opposition to the claims of the band members were beginning to gel, Connolley set to work on the Wikipedia site. He rewrote Wikipedia’s articles on global warming, on the greenhouse effect, on the instrumental temperature record, on the urban heat island, on climate models, on global cooling. On Feb. 14, he began to erase the Little Ice Age; on Aug.11, the Medieval Warm Period.

But re-writing natural history was not enough for Connolley. He moved on to recreating the personal histories of prominent global warming skeptics…

In October, he turned his attention to the hockey stick graph. He rewrote articles on the politics of global warming and on the scientists who were skeptical of the band. Richard Lindzen and Fred Singer, two of the world’s most distinguished climate scientists, were among his early targets, followed by others that the band especially hated, such as Willie Soon and Sallie Baliunas of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, authorities on the Medieval Warm Period.

This wasn’t just a hobby for Mr. Connelley, it must have been his full-time obsession. He re-wrote over 5,000 Wikipedia articles!

But can’t anybody re-write articles at Wikipedia? You can’t hold it against Connolley that he was very passionate and prolific about the subject, can you?

It seems Mr. Connolley had a little more control at Wikipedia than you or I have. Solomon again elaborates..,

His control over Wikipedia was greater still, however, through the role he obtained at Wikipedia as a website administrator, which allowed him to act with virtual impunity. When Connolley didn’t like the subject of a certain article, he removed it — more than 500 articles of various descriptions disappeared at his hand. When he disapproved of the arguments that others were making, he often had them barred — over 2,000 Wikipedia contributors who ran afoul of him found themselves blocked from making further contributions.

The efforts of people like William Connolley, Michael Mann, the folks at CRU and the rest of the rabid hockey stick team have paid off in spades for the global warming alarmists. I know intelligent, educated, scientists who actually believe that the medieval warm period is the creation of revisionist history of global warming “deniers.” They don’t understand that before the global warming controversy started heating up (pun intended) in the 1990′s the medieval warm period and the little ice age were standard fare for anybody studying the thermal history of the Holocene. It has been the alarmists, like William Connelley, who have tried to “get rid of the Medieval Warm Period.”
Connolly’s Biography on Wikipedia

Connolly has his own biography on Wikipedia. At this moment (December 20th, 2009, 6:10 pm Mountain Time) the article says this about his “Wikipedia activity”…

A July 2006 article in The New Yorker reported that Connolley briefly became “a victim of an edit war over the entry on global warming”, in which a skeptic repeatedly “watered down” the article’s explanation of the greenhouse effect.[10] The skeptic later brought the case before Wikipedia’s arbitration committee, claiming that Connolley was pushing his own point of view in the article by removing material with opposing viewpoints. The arbitration committee imposed a “humiliating one-revert-a-day” editing restriction on Connolley. Wikipedia “gives no privilege to those who know what they’re talking about”, Connolley told The New Yorker.[10] The restriction was later revoked, and Connolley went on to serve as a Wikipedia administrator from January 2006 until 13 September 2009.[10]

But just yesterday, Dennis Kuzara reported at WattsUpWithThat that Pierre Grés over at Wikipedia told him, via email, that …

“In September 2009, the Wikipedia Arbitration Committee revoked Mr. Connolley’s administrator status after finding that he misused his administrative privileges while involved in a dispute unrelated to climate warming. This has now been added to his article.”

Really? What did he do that was worse than attempting to re-write the history of the planet in a way to affect decisions about the economy of the world? I’d really like to hear the details of that one.

The part about “This has been added to his article” may be the most revealing statement in this whole mess. Why? Because, as you can see from the quote about Connolley’s “Wikipedia Activity,” above, it does not appear there now. I guess the army of Wikipedia editors are still hard at work.

Why is the disaster scenario of the IPCC is a construct of lies!
The previous text was shown the objectives of the IPCC (IPCC) monitors and what means he uses to support the claim that the earth belongs to a human-made climate disaster. Because surely can not be that which must not, the IPCC following, mostly non-anthropogenic facts, under the table:

1. It is claimed that the earth has warmed from 1860 to 2005 to 0.71 °. At that time there was no device that temperatures at one hundred of a degree could measure accurately. Thus, the underlying and thus the end result is wrong.
2. There were never any global CO2 content of the samples taken from the air, but a single value of Mouna Loa Observatory in Hawaii, as a basis.
3. Of the 6 trace gases in air water vapor was (about 2 / 3 share in the air) are excluded, thereby reducing the amount of CO2 increases automatically.
4. The influence of the sun on global warming was not as human causes, not included.
5. The critical temperature curve (hockey stick), which should provide evidence that the increase in global temperatures a consequence of the increase of CO2 in the air, was forged. Scientists McIntyre and McKitrick unmasked this forgery, whereupon the IPCC refused to long to carry out an adjustment.
6. For the existence of clouds, which let the sun heat the earth, there are no calculations. Clouds are thus eliminated in calculating the heating of the earth.
7. 72% of the earth's surface is covered by water. The oceans are by far the most CO2 of the earth. Cold water can absorb more CO2 than warm water. There is no scientifically robust studies of how the oceans release more CO2 when they warm up.

The Inconvenient truth

is that the movie by that name is a crock! Oh, and Aaron, right on.A little enforcement of the rules is good for the soul, and for this forum.Jim

My Posting was indeed about pointing to that Guy William Connolley, a former Head of the CRU, what is spreading Misinformations and censoring other Scientists over Wikipedia, to bend the Truth as he do need it. The Informations, what other Scientists there did post are maybe lost again for a long Time.

Wikipedia itself stated, that they will take more care about, what is posted there, and to see, that they can find an 'average?' Way, to keep the Informations neutral, even when they allready leave a lot out, and even, when you crossearch William Connolley, then you dont find any negative Informations about him on his Page about this Event.
For Wikipedia i started somewhere else, not here, another Thread with the the Title "The Wankerpedia or Lyingpedia?". (Wanker can mean in my Language also a unsteady Person in his Mind -) That the Informations there are only 80% reliable is probatly common known. At last, it has some Descriptions, what do help a bit further, but Wiki is indeed another Topic.

Same old story ..we need an institution where ALL genres of scientist can make their suppressed material available for the public,SPECIFIC to identify this problem, the sum of material now days, if i think about it, the suppression of scientist and information exist in ALL areas, not just bunk climate science, FREE energy, medicine etc.

Here is one to remind us why we should have this institution.

Medical researchers angered by Govt suppression
By PM's David Mark


-Medical researchers say Australians are not being told about valuable public health information because governments are suppressing their work. Australian academics say their work is being blocked on what they call a system-wide basis to stop the publication of unfavourable results or because the work is controversial and could embarrass a minister.


Two Academics at the University of Western Australia have published a paper in the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health on the censorship of academic research.They surveyed medical health researchers and found one third had witnessed a Federal, State or Territory Government suppressing academic papers.


Chief executive of the Public Health Association and the former population health researcher Michael Moore said he experienced the sort of government censorship that is denying Australians potentially valuable public health information."I was also employed by the Federal Government in a particular piece of research on gambling and that piece of research has never seen the light of day," he said.


"It didn't eventuate. The public service probably felt they owned it and didn't need to put it out into the public arena." Mr Moore said any censorship is extraordinarily frustrating and undemocratic.


"When we're talking about public health information, then it's really hard to imagine what the cases may be where the research has been done and governments seem to find a reason to contain that information to sanitise it, or suppress it completely," he said."What we really want is the healthiest possible society and a healthy society is one where information is open and apparent and people can look at it and make their own decisions."-End Quote
