Warmists Links Angelina Jolie’s Double Mastectomy To GOP Coming Around On “Climate Change”
20 May 2013 7:28 am William Teach

I’d love to say this is parody, but, alas, no, this is how wackadoodle the New Climate Deniers are (via Junk Science).

Will Angelina Jolie Help End Climate-Change Denial, And Help The Republican Party?
File this one under unintended consequences. Angelina Jolie, by announcing her preventative double masectomy, will likely have significant influence well beyond women’s health. By modeling how to think with data when data do not tell us what we would otherwise want them to say, she displayed a level of decision-making courage that business and political leaders should strive …

New Yorker: Replace Everything That Emits CO2 With Something Else
13 May 2013 7:38 am William Teach

That’s a fantastic freaking idea! Of course, it won’t stop “climate change”, partly because anthropogenic global warming, if we use the correct scientific term, rather than the political term, is a mostly fake issue, and partly Warmists do not even believe in their own rhetoric enough to practice what they preach (via Tom Nelson)
Terrible News About Carbon and Climate Change
You know you’re in for a doozy of a tale when the headline starts out with scientific illiteracy.
This past Thursday, the daily average atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, as measured by …

CO2 Passes 400ppm, Global Temperatures Shrug Shoulders
11 May 2013 7:00 am William Teach

Warmists have been anticipating CO2 hitting the CO2 mark with glee, much like they anticipated death milestones during the Iraq war (well, at least while Bush was president), and now they get their wish
(NY Times) The level of the most important heat-trapping gas in the atmosphere, carbon dioxide, has passed a long-feared milestone, scientists reported Friday, reaching a concentration not seen on the earth for millions of years.
Yet, the global temperature is stagnant, and it only rose a miniscule .28F since 1990 and .14F since 1997.
The best available evidence suggests …

Bummer: Greenland Not Melting Any Faster
9 May 2013 9:13 am William Teach

Despite the massive predictions of doom and gloom surrounding Greenland ice melt, it seems that Greenland is not melting any faster (and 2,500 Manhattans above normal so far this year).
(Grist) Back in 2006, scientists in Greenland made an alarming observation: Glaciers were crumbling into the ocean twice as fast. And not in little cocktail-sized cubes, either: Glaciologist Jason Box accurately predicted the spot where a hunk four times the size of Manhattan would later shear off into the sea.
Remember that starting paragraph for a little later in this post
As Box …

New Climate Deniers Blame Snow On, Yup, Global Warming
4 May 2013 6:50 am William Teach

Do they think people are this stupid, or are they just this brainwashed? Witness Salon’s…well, that’s weird, no one was willing to put their name to this fable
Blizzards in May. Wild fires. Is this global warming?
Sandy has been followed by massive spring snowfalls. Here’s what to look for as our climate-change awareness grows
And here’s Salon’s handy dandy view of what global warming looks like

Cult, anyone?
From that point on, the excerpted article from Climate Central fails to mention anything regarding the headline nor the sub-header. But, just the very fact that …

Warmists Decide “Settled Science” Means They Should Burn Books
3 May 2013 8:21 am William Teach

This is what science involves for the New Climate Deniers
(Watts Up With That?) From the Fahrenheit 451 department comes this indictment of California’s higher education’s “tolerance” for opposing views. When I first got the tip on this, I thought to myself “nobody can be this stupid to photograph themselves doing this” but, here they are, right from the San Jose State University Meteorology Department web page:

The caption from the SJSU website reads:
This week we received a deluge of free books from the Heartland Institute {this or this }. The book …

What Say You To Remotely Having Your AC And Fridge Shut Down During Peak Time Energy?
30 Apr 2013 8:47 am William Teach

This is the logical extension of “smart grid” policies.

(UK Daily Mail) Fridges and freezers in millions of British homes will automatically be switched off without the owner’s consent under a ‘Big Brother’ regime to reduce the strain on power stations.
The National Grid is demanding that all new appliances be fitted with sensors that could shut them down when the UK’s generators struggle to meet demand for electricity.
Electric ovens, air-conditioning units and washing machines will also be affected by the proposals, which are already backed by one of the European Union’s …

Scientific American Compares CO2 At 400ppm To 9/11
27 Apr 2013 9:25 am William Teach

Why yes, yes these people are bat guano insane and, since they are pretty much bereft of science, they have to trot out all sorts of scary fables (via Tom Nelson)
As CO2 Concentrations Near Ominous Benchmark, Daily Updates Begin
Scientist Ralph Keeling wants this generation to remember when atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide reached 400 parts per million, because of humans
Meanwhile, this is the second coldest start to spring since 1900. The Antarctic ice extent is one of the largest ever (in recorded history, mind you). Global sea rise is predicted …

OFA Launches Campaign To Attack Climate Realists In Congress
26 Apr 2013 8:22 am William Teach

The totally independent from Obama (snicker) group Organizing For Action continues the Neverending Campaign
(UK Guardian) The campaign group formed to support Barack Obama’s political agenda has launched an initiative to shame members of Congress who deny the science behind climate change.
In an email to supporters on Thursday, Organizing for Action said it was time to call out members of Congress who deny the existence of climate change, saying they had blocked efforts to avoid its most catastrophic consequences.
The email linked to a video mocking Republicans who reject the science on …

Hooray! Warmists Say Ocean Is Eating 90% Of The Warmth
25 Apr 2013 7:52 am William Teach

It’s all so very convenient that the New Climate Deniers come up with a way to proclaim that Mankind is still the main culprit, it’s just that the heat is disappearing into the deep oceans (which they can’t really prove). Since it has been exposed that there has been a pause in warming, with no statistically significant warming since 1997 (really, 1990, since the global temp has gone up just .28F since 1990 and .14F since 1997), Warmists have trotted out lots of “theories”, such as soot, that the melting …

Ex-NASA Scientists Speak Out On “Climate Change” Hysteria
18 Apr 2013 9:01 am William Teach

Obviously, they will be branded heretics, personally denigrated, and said to be in the pay of Big Oil and Big Coal.

(Nature World News) The government is overreacting to a largely unreal threat of global warming and NASA isn’t helping, states a report issued by The Right Climate Stuff (TCRS) research team.
Comprised largely of ex-NASA engineers and scientists, the team acknowledges in their report that “climate science is not one of our data technical specialties,” but that, nonetheless, given their experience in their separate fields of physics, chemistry, geology, meteorology and …

Gore Takes Fossil Fueled Flight To Call For Action On Hotcoldwetdry
17 Apr 2013 8:55 am William Teach

One has to admire his hutzpah in taking a fossil fueled flight (probably on a private jet) to a conference that whines about “climate change”
(Irish Times) Former US vice-president Al Gore called for action on climate change yesterday, comparing denial of changing weather patterns to “sleepwalking towards the edge of the cliff”.
Which is why he lives a big carbon footprint lifestyle and purchased a McMansion near the Pacific ocean in California.
Mr Gore, who was jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his attempts to raise awareness of climate change, made …

MIT Wonders About Harming People Today To Save Future People From Hotcoldwetdry
11 Apr 2013 8:44 am William Teach

Writer David Rotman is really concerned about the “moral choice”. When liberals start talking about morals, hold on to your wallet (funny, because these same liberals aren’t particularly worried about morals when it comes to killing the unborn)
Climate Change: The Moral Choices
The effects of global warming will persist for hundreds of years. What are our responsibilities and duties today to help safeguard the distant future? That is the question ethicists are now asking.
The obvious answer is that all those who believe in “climate change”, a wholly unscientific term designed to …

Here We Go: “Climate Change” To Shift Red Wine Production Very Far To The North
10 Apr 2013 8:24 am William Teach

Facts: a .08C increase in global temperatures since 1997. A miniscule .28F from 1990-2012. Varying data collections which show warming has paused anywhere from 15-19 years. Warmists who think this is all so dire that they refuse to give up their own fossil fueled lifestyles and refuse to go carbon neutral. Their cult is dying around them. Their attempts at science are continuously beaten by real science. What to do? More scary prognostications!
(Sydney Morning Herald) In 50 years, wines from Bordeaux and Tuscany will be insipid. Instead, we’ll all be …

Hooray! Warmists Says Warming No Longer Requires Noticable Warming
8 Apr 2013 7:33 am William Teach

I wrote this Tweet the other day (dropped an “it” at the beginning. Sue me)
Isn’t ironic that Al Gore has a divinity degree and becomes the high priest of “climate change”
— WilliamTeach (@WilliamTeach) April 6, 2013

Seems relevant (via Steven Goddard)
(WKZO) Climate change could get worse quickly if huge amounts of extra heat absorbed by the oceans are released back into the air, scientists said after unveiling new research showing that oceans have helped mitigate the effects of warming since 2000.
Heat-trapping gases are being emitted into the atmosphere faster than ever, …

Meet The New Climate Deniers
5 Apr 2013 8:25 am William Teach

I missed this story the other day from Rich Lowry
(NY Post) There are few things sadder than the “climate denier.” He ignores the data and neglects the latest science. His rhetoric and policy proposals are dangerously disconnected from reality. He can’t recalibrate to take account of the latest evidence because, well, he’s a denier.
The new climate deniers are the liberals who, despite their obsession with climate change, have managed to miss the biggest story in climate science, which is that there hasn’t been any global warming for about a decade …

Obama: “The Politics Of Hotcoldwetdry Are Tough!!!!!”
4 Apr 2013 9:24 am William Teach

Well, yes, they are, because most people, even those who are Warmists, aren’t interested in burdensome restrictions on their lives that also dramatically increase costs. Most, when polled, want government to “Do Something”, just not when it effects their pocketbook and own freedom. Surprisingly, there are no polls asking “what have you done in your own life? Have you given up fossil fueled travel? Take 2 minute showers? Only buy local? Unplug appliances when not in use?” And the always fun one “why are you taking constant fossil fueled flights …

The Marcott “Abrupt Warming” Meme Dying A Slow Death
2 Apr 2013 8:00 am William Teach

Will The AP, NY Times, and others (The Global Warming Policy Foundation has an interesting list with quotes) who published the findings of the Marcott paper retract their stories and publish updates, since the “science” of the Marcott paper are entirely in question? Here’s Bjørn Lomborg
3 weeks ago, a paper in Science showed the last 11,000 years of temperature. The claim, that went around the world was one of “an abrupt warming in the last 100 years”, as the New York Times put it.
Today, the researchers admit this claim was …

Even Hoaxers Admit It Isn’t Getting Any Warmer
1 Apr 2013 12:29 pm Dave Blount

There’s no better time than April Fools Day to check in on the progress of the global warming crisis:
Debate about the reality of a two-decade pause in global warming and what it means has made its way from the sceptical fringe to the mainstream.
Even global warming profiteers have had to admit that their predictions are not coming true. True to form, they blame the embarrassing lack of rising temperatures on the source of all other problems — the emissions produced by human activity.
James Hansen, the head of NASA’s Goddard Institute …

Warmist Suggests Hotcoldwetdry Will Cause More Tsunamis
1 Apr 2013 7:49 am William Teach

While Warmists call people who do not believe in “climate change” (a wholly unscientific term) anti-science, this is what Warmists call “science”
(Don’t be fooled by the spring snows, they are further proof of global warming)
Unsurprisingly, David Robert Grimes takes the Warmist line that massive cold and snow is caused by heat, because it surely couldn’t be caused by cold (sic). According to their meth addled hypothesis, the last glacial period was caused by it getting really hot.
While it may seem paradoxical that Arctic warming can freeze us so much, it …
