The Great Global Warming Swindle

Sun Causes Climate Change Shock – Telegraph Blogs

So if it's so great, why aren't we hearing more about it? Well, possibly because the Director General of CERN Rolf-Dieter Heuer would prefer it that way. Here's how he poured cold water on the results in an interview with Die Welt Online:

I have asked the colleagues to present the results clearly, but not to interpret them. That would go immediately into the highly political arena of the climate change debate. One has to make clear that cosmic radiation is only one of many parameters.

Rebellion at NASA

From a news story breaking today at WND.com:

Forty-nine highly respected former NASA astronauts, engineers and scientists are fighting back against efforts by top executives to use the federal agency to promote global warming alarmism. Their letter to NASA Administrator Charles Bolden accuses the agency of endangering “the reputation of science itself” by advocating the “extreme” position that carbon dioxide is the major cause of climate change. The letter has done nothing to stop the efforts of NASA’s most notorious global warming activist, James Hansen, director of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, a division of NASA. The day after the letter was sent, Hansen stated in an interview with BBC Scotland that averting global warming was a “great moral issue” equivalent to slavery. He called for a worldwide tax on carbon emissions and advocated a ban on the construction of coal-fired power plants.

As Brian Sussman points out in his explosive new book “Eco-Tyranny,” there is nothing new about these kinds of statements, as Hansen has a long history of extreme claims and advocacy on behalf of large-scale government regulation.

I for one would agree with Hansen's statement that this is a "great moral issue," equivalent to slavery, but as I see it the global warming alarmists are the immoral ones and their push for a worldwide tax on carbon emissions will enslave the rest of us if it is implemented.

IPCC Admits Its Past Reports Were Junk

Hi Folks,

Well, here is a very interesting article about how "settled" the science on this topic really is. Enjoy!

New UK Met Office report says Global Warming stopped 16 years ago.

From an article appearing in the UK Daily Mail:

"The world stopped getting warmer almost 16 years ago, according to new data released last week.
The figures, which have triggered debate among climate scientists, reveal that from the beginning of 1997 until August 2012, there was no discernible rise in aggregate global temperatures. This means that the ‘plateau’ or ‘pause’ in global warming has now lasted for about the same time as the previous period when temperatures rose, 1980 to 1996. Before that, temperatures had been stable or declining for about 40 years.

The new data, compiled from more than 3,000 measuring points on land and sea, was issued quietly on the internet, without any media fanfare, and, until today, it has not been reported."

Here's a chart from the Met Office report:

The Met Office is the UK's national weather service. It plays a major role in supplying data to the UN and is an unabashed advocate for the UN's global warming policy. So when the Met Office says global warming has stopped, it's significant.

Fabulous!

Rickoff,

Thank you so much for your contributions to this thread!

You're quite welcome, Peter. This is stuff that everyone should be aware of, but never will hear about in the mainstream TV media. I printed the chart and carry it in my shirt pocket now to show global alarmists and confused environmentalists when I meet and fall into a conversation with them. I will probably be using that chart tomorrow, in fact, as I will be at a meeting with several active environmentalists who, like me, are the driving force behind Maine's volunteer lake water quality monitoring project - the oldest such program in the nation, and in which I have participated for 35 years now.

Ozone hole smallest in 20 years and antarctic ice is at record size.
NASA - 2012 Antarctic Ozone Hole Second Smallest in 20 Years

Over the last few months, the monster ozone hole over Antarctica is smaller than it has been in 20 years.

As I predicted, the sea ice will start to increase and VOILA! Steady Antarctic ice growth 'limits confidence in climate predictions' • The Register over the last couple months, the antarctic sea ice has grown to record size but the mainstream media claims it is evidence of man made global warming. LOL

And the only references I could find connecting the ozone hole and Antarctic sea ice manipulates the connection by misdirecting people's attention to "the ozone hole is simply delaying the effects of the green house gases (basically continuing to blame man made co2)." Can anybody say denial? lol

E.L. Rothschild LLC Acquires a Majority Stake in Weather Central, LP | Business Wire Check this out - regardless of what they claim they're purchasing it for, it should be obvious is that it is to control the mainstream perspective of the weather.

And UNFCCC ask for immunity from prosecution - why would you need immunity from prosecution unless you are guilty of fraud? U.N. Requests Immunity From Criminal Prosecution For Climate Scientists Engaged In Constructive Fraud! « Political Vel Craft lol

I may have found the answer...

Gotta see this!

At COP 18 in Doha, Qatar, CFACT asked the delegates to the UN Climate Change Conference if they would be willing to wear a carbon capture mask that filters out the carbon dioxide (CO2) they exhale. You'd be surprised how many agreed to this ridiculous proposal. If the UN delegates are open to this, just think what they'd like to impose on the rest of the world!

See this hilarious escapade here.

Extreme Weather Report 2012

Here's a link to a pdf report debunking the Climate Change propagandist claim that extreme weather events such as hurricane Sandy are being caused by climate changes due to manmade CO2 emissions. The report is based upon factual evidence, and provides some excellent resources to use when we talk with Global Warming theorists and believers.

[rickoff]

As the International Climate Change Conference in Doha, Qatar goes into overtime negotiations today, look what UN climate alarmists are hoping to foist upon the United States in the guise of a "Loss and Damage Mechanism" proposal which would make the US liable to developing nations for climate damages supposedly resulting from extreme weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes, typhoons, flooding, etc.

Solar Variability and Climate

Hey Folks,

A new report has been issued that finally supports what many of us have been saying for years, .... that the SUN is the biggest influence in the changes that the global climate goes through.

Solar Variability and Terrestrial Climate

It's an important article. Please take a look at it.
