It is no longer global warming because it isn't.

It is climate change because it does.

Men are never so likely to settle a question rightly as when they discuss it freely.

— Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859), Essay on Southey's Colloquies

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

The Case for Natural Variability in Climate Change




Some recent (2018/19) studies and data encourage this interpretation of our changing climate.











As the Gurus rant and rave




CNN: Al Gore weather snowstorm in Davos, declares: 'Time is running out' to fight climate change - Gore further claimed while in Davos that momentum to fight "global warming" was getting help from nature. "You are seeing the results of the messages sent by Mother Nature," Gore told CNN






Mother Nature contrarily behaves:











Isn’t the following a cause for a parade!


Thanks CO2!

As the Gurus rant and rave 1,500 private jets fly in to save world at Davos to tell people to lower their emissions of CO2. Do as we say not as we do. Do you find it  difficult to believe hypocrites?

The Tipping Points That Never Come







Tipping points are a ‘scare’ tactic used by the totalitarians among us to gain more power over the individual:



Is it any wonder that this conclusion has been reached?


Have the global warming alarmists missed the obvious - the climate is cyclical and the human emissions of CO2 have nothing to do with it?







Are we now entering a cooling phase?

And the totalitarians among us don’t care! They will continue to blame humans for whatever bad weather should appear. It is their excuse for aggrandizing power in a central all powerful federal government. They convince you that ‘you’ are at fault. Hang your head, feel guilty and you are more easily manipulated to their ends.. You are their enemy.


Don’t buy into it. Join the Resistance. Be a Rebel.

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed — and hence clamorous to be led to safety — by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." And, "The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it." ~ H.L. Mencken

What is NORMAL?



Gore\: 'Every night on the TV news now is like a nature hike through the Book of Revelation.'

Mr Gore: at what point in history would that NOT be the case?


Extreme weather existed long before humans came along and at concentrations of CO2 both higher AND lower than we currently experience(410 ppm) in our contemporary atmosphere.

Extreme weather does NOT care how much CO2 is in the air!

Floods,  drought, heat waves, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards and cold waves are FEATURES in our atmosphere. They are NOT bugs that can be eliminated with some anti-virus atmospheric program. They are NORMAL.



Even the IPCC knew this at one time:

“In sum, a strategy must recognise what is possible. In climate research and modelling, we should recognise that we are dealing with a coupled non-linear chaotic system, and therefore that the long-term prediction of future climate states is not possible.”
IPCC Working Group I: The Scientific Basis, Third Assessment Report (TAR), Chapter 14 (final para., 14.2.2.2), p774. 2001

It is a telling quote which should have ended the IPCC investigation into CAGW.

Change is what the climate does

Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The snow is falling somewhere and somewhere winds are light
And somewhere land is flooding, and somewhere there is drought
The climate she’s a changing is what the NORMAL’s all about


Symptoms of climate change:

Snow in the snow belt
Tornadoes in tornado alley
Tropical storms in the tropics
Forest fires in the forest
Drought in the desert
Floods on the floodplain
Heat in the summer
Cold in the winter
Rain during the rainy season

Because : SCIENCE

And falling leaves in autumn. NORMAL is scary for alarmists.

No wonder H.L. Mencken quipped

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed — and hence clamorous to be led to safety — by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.":


Blaming Climate Change for the Normal









And SCIENCE says:



Extreme weather does NOT care how much CO2 is in the air!


The Evidence Continues to Pile Up - 2018



The evidence that man made ‘Global Warming/Climate Change is a false fear’ is piling up in the Scientific Journals where science is settled - eventually. Mother Nature contributes her own opinion to strengthen the skeptical conclusions that scientists are reaching. When we count occurrences or measure variables in the environment that report weather/climate the results(assuming accurate as humanly possible counts/measurements) do NOT support the catastrophic view of a warming planet.













How Regulations Made California’s Fires Worse - sometimes our ‘best practices’ turn out to be harmful rather than helpful


Warmest Year Evah (Except For The Others!) - and when we put today’s temperatures into  geological context the worries should be allayed.

Archaeologists Rescue Iron and Bronze Age Artifacts Exposed by ‘Climate Change’ - artifacts of the past now uncovered means it was warmer there in the past than it is now. How did that happen because CO2 was also LOWER than it is now?



Climate skeptics have valid reasons to question man-made warming - especially the fact that CO2 has been from 5 to 20 times higher in the past than it is now and there was NO tipping point, NO runaway global warming that made the planet uninhabitable. We are here.

Lightning deaths at all-time record low in 2017 – Despite Al Gore’s predictions - if your CO2 theory can’t successfully predict then CO2 as cause you can’t indict.

Analysis: New York’s Temperature Record Massively Altered By NOAA - this is a dishonest way to support your theory but if no one is watching what the hell...

Fake News and 2017 Near-Record Temperatures - doctored data creates TAMPeratures in place of actual thermometer data. If you embark on a policy of diddling the data you can produce whatever result you desire. This is agenda politics NOT science. Real scientists go where the data leads they do not lead the data where they want to go. A new job description has been invented for climatology - Data Diddler.

WANTED: Data Diddler

Demonstrate a willingness to diddle data to support the theory advocated by your superiors. Must not allow conscience to get in the way of your work. Your income and the lifestyle to which you have become accustomed depend on your loyalty to your superiors. Rah Rah in support of your superiors is greatly appreciated although all that is required is quiet dedicated obedience.

FInally, consider this:

More CO2 more soil moisture
The increase in CO2 is causing more vegetation, more rainfall, fewer extremes in temperature, fewer heatwaves and fewer droughts. The exact opposite of what scientifically ignorant climate scientists claim.

Makes sense, no?


And at lower levels of CO2 in the air. So why hasn’t it happened in our more atmospheric CO2 laden time?
