The powerline guys have made an audio available of their interview with the author of a new book on the global warming controversy. Here are the details: During the second hour of Saturday’s radio show, we interviewed Dennis Avery, co-author of Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1500 Years. It was a good conversation, with up to […]
(UPDATE: The film’s official website is here.) *** If you haven’t yet seen the Channel 4 film, “The Great Global Warming Swindle,” then take an hour and 15 minutes to watch it. We’ll have more to say on it later. Saul Singer has written “Is Green Good?” in which he notes these key points from […]
(Hat tip: verumserum.com) There was a Global Warming debate in New York last Wednesday, and the “consensus” is that the skeptics had the better evening. Before-and-after polls of the audience confirm this as the audience “flipped” from pro-crisis to pro-skeptic. Here’s a transcript (PDF) of the debate from the sponsors, Intelligence Squared. The U.S. Senate […]
Last week, Tony Blankley discussed two British professors who have written books on the links between environmentalism and religion, the association which is called “neo-animist paganism.” The article, “Al Gore’s Remission of Sin,” helps explain the rhetoric of global warmers and its similarity to “the inherent prophetic nature of the religious instinct.” Moreover, there has […]
Sunday’s Telegraph has a story on how scientists skeptical of the global warming hype are now receiving death threats. I guess comparing them to Nazi’s, destroying their professional careers, and cutting off their funding just isn’t enough. From the article, “Scientists threatened for ‘climate denial’” Scientists who questioned mankind’s impact on climate change have received […]
This is great! Please read “Global Warming as European Imperialism”. When you’ve finished reading it, forward the link to everyone you know who mindlessly repeats the lie that “America is an Imperial power.” And, shame on you, Pat Buchanan for not knowing your history. Why don’t you learn the real history of European Imperialism before […]
If we’re not careful, all of this talk about global warming might start to generate its own heat. Already, tempers on both sides are flaring and passions are heating up. Where will it end? There is a consensus among global warming advocates that free speech is starting to taint the global warming debate and interfere […]
The global warming debate is a fascinating case-study in arguing with liberals. There are two sides in this debate: Those who accept the Lord Global Warming with all their hearts and with all their soul. This is the prosecution. Those who are trying to convince the inquisitor that there is, in fact, a defendant present […]
Earlier this week, George Will decided “enough already” and wrote a column exposing some of the “inconvenient truths” about Democrats and global warming, particularly what happened to the Kyoto Protocol in the US Senate under President Clinton. We extend a hearty “Thank You” to George Will for his excellent column, “Inconvenient Kyoto Truths.” Enough already. […]
“Nuremberg for global warming skeptics?” is the latest column by Walter Williams on the scare tactics employed by the Global Warmers in order to exert control of our lives. Political commentator Henry Louis Mencken (1880-1956) warned that “The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed – and hence clamorous to be […]
Last week, much controversy was generated by this post by David Roberts to the Gristmill Blog which cutely and lovingly describes itself as a blogful of leafy green commentary. Here’s the post: Check out this startling excerpt from George Monbiot’s new book Heat. It’s about the climate-change “denial industry,” which most of you are probably […]
Global warming is now entering the laughingstock phase. Read Hell Freezes Over: On Friday, the Las Vegas Sun reported that eight inches of snow had hit the Las Vegas Valley. The 3.6 inches that had already fallen as of late Wednesday near McCarran Airport added up to the most snow recorded for the area in […]
“The biofuels debacle is global warm-mongering in a nutshell: The first victims of poseur environmentalism will always be developing countries. In order for you to put biofuel in your Prius and feel good about yourself for no reason, real actual people in faraway places have to starve to death.” That great quote could only come […]
Scroll for Updates *** Now that President Bush is determined to “secure his legacy” by embracing Al Gore, the likelihood of a recession exacerbated by energy and food inflation is all but guaranteed. There’s your legacy, Mr. President. A large contributor to the huge spike in food prices is demon ethanol which is also leading […]
Man made global warming is, of course, a hoax. It is an attempt to scare people with Chicken-Little tactics into allowing bureaucrats to control all industrial and personal energy usage and to facilitate global income redistribution. It’s a socialist’s dream, but it’s not working. Even co-opting the phrase “Climate Change” won’t work in the long […]
The global warming cultists continue to slide into intellectual oblivion, ensuring that eventually nobody will take them seriously. This is too bad because we do need to consider real, objective science (how sad that I must qualify it that way); however, this silliness has gotten completely out-of-hand. I refer to this article by Ian Roberts, […]
Have you heard the remarks of NASA administrator Michael Griffin from an interview that he gave to National Proletariat Radio’s “Morning Edition” on global warming? Foxnews has an article on the interview, “NASA Chief Questions Whether Global Warming Is a Problem:” “To assume that it is a problem is to assume that the state of […]
(Hat tip: HR) Want to know what “global warming” is really about? If you thought it was about “saving the planet” from nasty humans then you may not want to read this bit of beauro-babble from EU bean counters who are as adept at “fudging the numbers” as their hired scientists: In the latest installment […]
It has been a big week for Al Gore and his paranoid posse of myrmidons. Now that he’s been knighted by Hollywood, Sir Al can celebrate the news from Europe that “Global warming concerns are keeping children awake at night.” Read this. It is absurd. Half of young children are anxious about the effects of […]
