Settled Science

The Debate is Over

Mother Nature disagrees and she has the ONLY opinion that counts.

Nature – finally ‘finds’ cause of Antarctic pause, will last centuries, tosses ‘global warming’       

DESPITE ‘GLOBAL WARMING’, ANTARCTICA’S SEA ICE IS GROWING

Warming is regional only. Hot here. Cold there. Heat distribution not so rare.

NASA says Antarctic sea ice has INCREASED since 1970s

Paper: ‘Has climate change been disproved? Study ‘casts shock DOUBT on global warming’

If the science is settled how come these keep popping up?

Record cold morning in Sydney - how did that happen? Don’t they have heat trapping CO2 in Sydney? Oh, wait. It’s late fall in the SH. Time of year overrules CO2 influence.

Season Approaches: U.S. Hits Record 127 Months Since Major Hurricane Strike     - how does the world record holder for lifetime emissions of CO2 get passed over? Are they the chosen people?

Study: Actually The Arctic Isn’t That Vulnerable To Global Warming        

'The study determined that melting snow and ice in the arctic and tundra will not create a self-sustaining feedback loop that would make global warming much worse.'

Scientific Research Confirms: Increased CO2 Improves Southern Hemisphere Forest Growth        

Flashback 1925: ‘Arctic Climate Turning Warmer; Glaciers Melting’ – ‘Arctic climate has changed considerably in recent years’        

Gee, why does this sound familiar? Could it be cyclical?

Obama on Climate Change: ‘We Can See it Happening Right Now’

The man’s powers of observation are astounding. Can he see when it wasn’t happening? Or has it always been happening? The climate changes irrespective of the amount of CO2 in the air. If it is changing faster than ever with 400 ppm CO2 how much faster CO2 must have increased to end the last ice age.

1000 year rainfall study suggests droughts and floods used to be longer, worse

Swedish Govt Telling Citizens To Eat Mealworms To End Climate Change - tastes like chicken. Do you want fries with that?

NASA Admits Substantial Climate Uncertainties - you mean it is not settled? They lied to us?

Study Finds ‘No significant global precipitation change from 1850 to present’ – Published in Journal of Hydrology - isn’t it supposed to be getting wetter and drier or something as CO2 continues to increase unabated?

Peer Review Veteran: ‘Peer Review Has Lots Of Problems …Tends To Stifle Non-Dogmatic Thinking’ - you mean scientists can’t be trusted?

Dutch Geologist Calls Climate Science A ‘Mass Hysteria’ – ‘Historians Will Shake Their Heads In Disbelief’ - guess he’s not part of the phony 97%

Retired Professor On Germany’s CO2 Reduction Effort: “Totally Idiotic What We Are Doing” - can’t fire him so he is free to speak his mind

Colorado lawmaker under fire encouraging colleagues to see ‘Climate Hustle’ - this guy may not be so lucky. Like Kim Jong-un and ISIS warmists do not like dissent in the ranks.

Study finds ice isn’t being lost from Greenland’s interior – Published in journal Science - Phew, it would be hard to find amongst all the other ice

The Official And Authoritative Obama Texas Drought - has changed to flooding - we so know what is going to happen in the future. Settled science and all.

Upper Atmosphere Temperature Trends Models vs Measurements (1 June 2016)

As is almost always the case, measurements once again trump model projections, even when the models are of the highly-hyped CMIP5 variety...

Modern Debacle Of Wasted Trillions. Consensus: Efforts To Prevent Climate Change “Will Almost Surely Fail”! - let’s wreck the economy for no good reason

Maurice King, well known UK professor: “Global Sustainability requires the deliberate quest of poverty, reduced resource consumption and set levels of mortality control.”

Fighting global warming will impoverish everyone - did you vote for it??

Some Inconvenient truths about AGW - it doesn’t exist?

“Climate change threatens our very existence, because it isn’t true”.

They mean climate change at the hands of CO2..

Enjoy your CO2 today. It is keeping you alive!

Perhaps this makes the social BENEFITS of CO2 PRICELESS. What do you think?

Education

The truth does not need protection from inquiry. False theories need protection from the truth.  False theories need suppression of open inquiry.

Watch: Morano on Fox News in heated climate debate over schools banning books doubting ‘global warming’

Banned in Portland by climate catastrophists (OPINION)

Which is naturally followed by       

ALERT: Landmark California bill would allow prosecution of climate-change skeptics

2016 California Climate Truthers and Witch-Hunt Act

In the land of the free....OK, California is loopy....Portland to follow?

UPDATE: California legislature shelves their ugly attempt at killing the first amendment

Defcon1 Legal Threat: California’s near miss on new laws to jail climate skeptics

That it was even considered is abominable.

The truth can withstand scrutiny. It welcomes examination. The truth does not need to be defended by force but it can be suppressed by force. In Portland, only the adults are allowed to think. Doubting and inquiry banned in Portland.

So Portland wants to prevents its students from seeing the following unsettling science aka, reality? Hide them, hide them, oh, horrors, hide the scientific journals... anybody think to ask the kids how they feel about it?

Modern Debacle Of Wasted Trillions. Consensus: Efforts To Prevent Climate Change “Will Almost Surely Fail”!

“Already this year there are 6 peer-reviewed papers examining efforts to curtail CO2 emissions through the use renewable energies. They all conclude that the effort won’t be successful. Given the trillions already committed and at risk of being totally wasted, one has to seriously question the wisdom of the effort.”

God forbid the kids should find out what science is discovering about the climate. They must be shielded at all costs from any data that is countervailing to the global warming sermon...suppress, suppress. Discovery of the truth is not welcome in Portland.

Richard Benedik, former U.S./UN bureaucrat: "A global climate treaty must be implemented even if there is no scientific evidence to back the greenhouse effect."

Makes sense, no? These are our thought leaders?

Maurice Strong, a former billionaire UN elitist & large CO2 producer: “Isn't the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsibility to bring that about?”

Nasty aren’t they?

They want us to play Survivor without Jeff Probst to bring reward.

Wanna play? Will we get a choice to avoid the ‘modern debacle’ alluded to above?

Book burning: Scientific study can stand up to scrutiny

It is a sad day for Education and Science in Portland.

Anatomy of a Scare

Anatomy of a Scare

Someone, often a scientist, finds some nefarious effect of X

This is brought to the attention of the MSM

Consciously or subconsciously the scare grows

Concerned NGOs form to raise awareness of X, membership increases

More negative reports about X begin to appear

MSM begins to editorialize

More scientists begin to study the effect of X in their area of expertise

More negative reports about X appear but there are always some contradictory studies

NGO Lobbyists bring matter to attention of politicians

Politicians rush to head of  line to champion ‘fight’ against proliferation of X

Politicians water the garden of fear; want to be seen as saviors

Contradictory reports about dangers of X are discounted because everyone now knows X is bad

Contrary opinion is ignored, slandered, associated with all things evil

Pretty soon X is held responsible for all unwelcome events under the sun

Public becomes tired of dueling claims thinks scientists don’t know what they are talking about

Public ignore scare - don’t think it is real - think politicians have been had

Politicians engage in favorite sports of jumping to conclusions & throwing money at problem

Politicians misallocate resources and when evil doesn’t happen gradually reduce funding

Scientists do not apologize but remain on alert for the next great scare that can be exploited

Politicians are played and never learn because they are addicted to their favorite sports

MSM loves a good scare - always good for readership and ad revenue

NGOs love the membership growth

Socialists exploit the scare to increase government power over the individual

More scientists learn to play the funding game -  more urgent the scare the greater the funding

Scientists learn that a planet in peril generates the most funding & ride scare as long as possible

Who loses? truth, taxpayer & citizen - usually the poor lose most as ‘solutions’ raise taxes, prices

REALITY: Scare non-existent or much much less than portrayed

Democracy: rewind and repeat

Message from the Future: come to senses and BREAK the CYCLE

Kesten Green and Scott Armstrong’s study of analogies to the global warming alarm.

Clean or Dirty Storm

Back in 2012 we learned that “Former Vice President Al Gore’s Climate Reality Project is hosting “24 Hours Of Reality: The Dirty Weather Report,” beginning at 8 p.m. EST on Wednesday, November 14.”

So was this a Clean or Dirty Storm?

Over 100 flights cancelled at Pearson as freezing rain coats Toronto area with ice

This early spring storm (March 2016) was a major inconvenience to those who lost power and had to find daycare for their kids because schools were closed.

Was this a clean or a dirty storm? It was certainly unwelcome.

Can we blame it on Carbon Dioxide(CO2)?

Prime Minister Trudeau has reminded us that 80% of Canadians are receiving some of our energy from ‘clean’ renewable sources.

So was this a Clean or Dirty Storm?

Going forward as GREEN energy populates the grid how will we be able to tell the difference between a clean and a dirty storm?

At what concentration of CO2 in the air do the storms become clean?

If extreme weather was worse in the past then how can present day less extreme storms be dirty? If the time of greatest human CO2 emissions boasts reduced frequency and severity of extreme weather how can CO2 be fingered as the perp?

Gore’s ‘dirty weather’ was a propaganda trick designed as a deflection from data that doesn’t support his position. ‘Dirty weather’ soils CO2 with mind pics that no one likes. We wash our clothes because we like ‘clean’. We don’t like ‘dirty’. Gore knows this and so he taints the argument through guilt by association. No proof. Just an allegation to help the cause.

As it turns out, extreme weather during the modern time of greatest human CO2 emissions ever have been calmer than those of the past when CO2 was near pre-industrial levels. Our weather is cleaner. Thanks, CO2!

The New Hyppies

The New Hyppies

In the 1960s the term hippie was used in a personal way to disparage long-haired, unwashed, unkempt drug users.

The New Hyppies of the Traveling Eco Loons of the 21st century derive their name from their blatant and narcissistic Hypocrisy over matters of imagined global warming.  Hyppie derives from Hypocrite.

Their behaviour is in stark contrast to the dire warnings that they issue on a daily basis. Hyppies preach doom and gloom as they zoom around the world telling others to stop zooming around the world in fossil fuel burning contraptions. Have they not heard of the internet or text messaging? Twitter and Facebook are brilliant low carbon messaging systems that do not require facetime in exotic locations. If Hyppie CO2-a-phobia were real would they not seek to minimize their creation of it?

Do Hyppies realize how their worldly galavanting and lavish lifestyles appear to the minions to whom they preach?

As one blogger called Instapundit has opined: I will believe there is a crisis when the people who tell me there is a crisis start acting like there is a crisis.

It is hard for us plebs to do anything but make fun of the self appointed and self important seers of the flying Eco Loons as they spew that which they denounce into the air in quantities that mock their phony concern. The Hyppies want us to validate their fears and assuage their guilt over their lavish lifestyles which they have no intention of altering. Warning of doom and gloom and seeking absolution is to be their contribution to the solution to the carbon pollution that they imagine afflicts the world.

Examples - Leo, Obama, Prince Charles

DiCaprio and the Hypocrisy of Moral Licensing - Chief celebrity Hyppie

After arriving by private jet, DiCaprio tells Davos we must ‘leave fossil fuels in the ground’ - how are you getting back Leo?

Obama’s Carbon Admission: ‘I Have the World’s Largest Carbon Footprint’ - the guilt must be unbearable as the Obamas jet off to their latest vacation spot in separate airplanes.

Prince Charles gives world reprieve: Extends ‘100-Month’ climate ‘tipping point’ to 35 more years - he will be six feet under by then - safe from the embarrassment of his failed forecast. The extension is his subtle acknowledgement that the world is not warming at unprecedented and accelerating rates but allows him to renew his faith in the inevitable apocalypse as he imagines it.

While Leo jets off to lend his sympathy to the latest uncaring act of Mother Nature blaming CO2 emissions from the human burning of fossil fuels for the mess does he fail to notice that most of the rest of the world with the same amount of CO2 in the air is just fine? How can CO2 be the ‘bad boy’ in Manila while CO2 is behaving itself in Hawaii where it is just another day in paradise. Same amount of CO2 in the air but different outcomes. Does this not suggest to Leo that something other than 400 ppm of CO2 is driving the climate?

The New Hyppies can repeat the script that enables their talk but they do not walk the walk. They destroy their own credibility as well as that of their cause. They are a skeptic’s best friend.

Propaganda vs Truth

  

Propaganda vs Truth

Propaganda

Looks only at evidence that supports your view

Seeks to impugn dissenters via ad hominem, guilt by association,

Seeks to associate dissenters with economic interests that would be hurt

Uses fallacious arguments knowingly and willingly

Uses repetition of beliefs incessantly - hear it a lot start to believe it must be true

Gets falsehoods out there first to put dissenters on defensive - lie can travel around the world before truth has chance to put on its socks

Claims consensus

Diddles the data to support the claims

Buys support with government funding

Threatens dissenters with exposure of past wrongdoing or set them up for a fall

Threatens legal prosecution for dissenters

Is all about tactics rather than truth - tip that arguments are weak

Truth

Seeks evidence for and against a belief

Consults experts from all sides

Weighs evidence pro and con to arrive at impartial decision

Asks others to review their work

Truth goes where the data leads. It does not lead the data where it wants to go.

I became a global warming skeptic because the alarmist side uses all the propaganda methods listed above. They want a win for their agenda and care not about the truth.

Memo to MSM - CO2 is invisible

Here is a picture of a functioning(24x7x365) coal power plant in the US. See all that CO2 ‘pollution’ coming out of the ‘smoke’ stacks?

Does that picture resemble what you are used to seeing on the nightly news when pollution is the topic?

CO2 is an invisible trace gas essential to life on Earth. It is NOT pollution.

The MSM like to show pictures of steam coming out of ‘smokestacks’ when it is talking about CO2 because it would be tough to sell pollution coming out of those ‘smokestacks’ if there is nothing to see as in the picture above. The invisible is not as dangerous as something that makes you gasp especially if you can make it look dark by taking the picture from where the sun is casting shadows.

It is a little bit of journalistic alchemy - changing the invisible into the visible and white into dark with the implication that the benign is dangerous. It is also dishonest and manipulative.
