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 Reason Sea Levels Are Falling



It stands to reason that if the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica are gaining ice that more ocean water must be ending up there which will cause sea levels to fall or at least rise more slowly.








Cooling oceans will also cause sea levels to fall.


The failure of scientists to find acceleration in sea level rise is a death knell to the CO2 centric theory of climate change.


CO2, despite its continued unabated rise in our atmosphere, is not the catastrophic event some would have us believe.

Three Years to Save the Earth


Have the people who issue such warnings ever been right?

Methinks not. We are still here.

But politicians and fraudsters( do I repeat myself) have something to gain by trying to keep us in fear.

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. H. L. Mencken

Politicians and fraudsters are happy to lead but where?

The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule. H. L. Mencken

Politicians like to pose as our saviours for it is easier to relieve the populace of their wealth through taxes if they believe it is for the salvation of humanity from the latest false fear.


Have these fear-mongers ever been right? No crystal ball for long-term climate predictions


We are still here. But there are totalitarians among us. They are people who believe that world will be a better place if the means of production and the wealth of the society are socialised. Climate change is NOT about the changing climate which has been doing so without our assistance for most of the last 4.5 billion years. Climate change is a cover for the implementation of the socialist agenda.

“…we redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy…One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with environmental policy anymore…” IPCC co-chair of Working Group 3, Dr. Ottmar Endenhofer, November 13, 2010 interview [H/t Dr. Charles Battig]

Christine Stewart, former Canadian Environment Minister: “No matter if the science is all phoney, there are collateral environmental benefits.... climate change [provides] the greatest chance to bring about justice and equality in the world.”

Quote by Nobel Prize Winner For Chemistry, Kary Mullis: “Global warmers predict that global warming is coming, and our emissions are to blame. They do that to keep us worried about our role in the whole thing. If we aren't worried and guilty, we might not pay their salaries. It's that simple.

They(totalitarians) want your money and will lie and cheat to relieve you of it. At their evening parties imagine their laughter as they rejoice in their ability to bilk the populace with a falsehood. Selling snake oil has never been so lucrative as with the scientific hoax of man made climate change. Ask Al Gore.

The data speaks loudly against the hoax and yet they are successful. Climate alarmists make Bernie Madoff look like Santa Claus.

And we stood for it. We were complicit. We enabled it and we have no one to blame but ourselves for electing fools who fool to rule.

Global Warming is a NATURAL Phenomenon


Without the presence of cement factories, coal plants or SUVs dumping CO2 into our atmosphere the climate managed to change in the past. We remember learning about ice ages and interglacials. Scientifically identified warm periods have acquired reference names.




“Most global warming is natural and even if there had been no Industrial Revolution current global temperatures would be almost exactly the same as they are now, a study has found.”






"After applying the latest big data technique to six 2,000 year-long proxy-temperature series we cannot confirm that recent warming is anything but natural – what might have occurred anyway, even if there was no industrial revolution.


Despite the dire warnings emitted by CO2-centric Global Warming theory advocates


Other studies don’t blame humans.



The behaviour of the sun is NOT controlled by humans.


Solar cycles are an entirely NATURAL phenomenon.

Which is more likely: Humans now control the climate through their emissions of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuels or the SUN controls the climate as it has in the past?

Remember that Mother Nature has already performed the high atmospheric CO2 concentration experiment for us over the last 650 million years when CO2 was from 5 to 20 times as high as it is now. There was NO tipping point, NO runaway global warming. We are here. Life has survived both higher planetary temperatures in the past as well as higher atmospheric CO2 concentrations.

Something else is going on and it is POLITICAL.


And most of us seem to know it.


Whether the weather be fine
Or whether the weather be not,
Whether the weather be cold
Or whether the weather be hot,
We'll weather the weather
Whatever the weather,
Whether we like it or not.

Hakuna matata.

Hurricane Harvey in Perspective


With the arrival of Hurricane Harvey as a category 4 storm on the Texas Gulf Coast in late August of 2017 the 4324 day absence of a major hurricane hitting the US is over. There are those who will immediately claim this storm was produced by our emissions of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuels. The alarmists will conveniently forget that the CO2 centric theory of global warming they love so much failed to predict the 4324(12 year) absence of major hurricanes walloping the US. We were continually told that storms would become both more frequent and more severe as CO2 continued to rise unabated in our atmosphere. An almost 12 year absence of major hurricanes during a time of rapid CO2 increase belies their pet claim.

And as it turns out while Harvey is devastating it is NOT unprecedented. We are reminded of the category 4 storm that killed between 6 and 12 thousand people in Galveston in 1900. Also there was a hurricane in 1893 around the same time of year in South Carolina that killed one thousand people. And in 1897 over 6000 people were killed by a hurricane in the Philippines. CO2 was much lower in the late 19th century.

To allay our fears that this storm is anything unusual in the annals of weather history scientists tell us that




Texas is no stranger to the appearance of hurricanes. Harvey is number 64 since 1851 to make landfall in the Lone Star State. It had been 9 years since a hurricane made landfall in Texas. While the climate alarmists among us will use the devastation wrought by Harvey to hype their belief in man made global warming and crusade for social justice a little perspective makes Harvey an unwelcome but not surprising visitor from the Gulf of Mexico. We live on a water based planet with a chaotic atmosphere whirling above it. Weather is going to happen and sometimes some of us are going to experience its power in devastating ways. But we should remember that while there are 400 ppm CO2 in the atmosphere over Texas the same is true in Hawaii where it is just another day in paradise. Is it logical to blame CO2 for two such vastly different weather scenarios. Are there bad CO2 molecules in Texas while the good ones are in Hawaii? What would turn CO2 from Dr Jekyll into Mr Hyde? CO2 is CO2.

Those of us lucky enough not to be experiencing the ravages of Hurricane Harvey wish the citizens of Texas well and we stand by to assist in their hours of need.

We owe CO2 an apology.


Alito: 'A pollutant is a subject that is harmful to human beings or to animals or to plants. Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. Carbon dioxide is not harmful to ordinary things, to human beings, or to animals, or to plants. It’s actually needed for plant growth. All of us are exhaling carbon dioxide right now. So, if it’s a pollutant, we’re all polluting.'

CO2, a trace gas essential to life on Earth, is plant food. We exhale CO2 and help to feed the flora. In return they slip us oxygen of which we are rather fond in a mutually beneficial and amicable symbiotic relationship.

Plants grow better, stronger, faster because of the increasing concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere.

Apart from that CO2 has no redeeming features

We need to stop all activities aimed at decreasing human emissions of CO2.

CO2 is clean and  green. CO2 is a friend with BENEFITS. We need more of it not less. The globe is greening. It is a sign that CO2 is benign. CO2 has been exhaled during the creation of this post. No living thing was harmed. Some even liked it. Let the plants dance.
