Dr Hansen, Global Warming September, October Whatever it Takes… »

Caught red-handed Dr Hansen the prince of “global warming”  franticly tries to hide his massive intentional cooking of the books.

The world has never seen such freezing heat - Telegraph

So what explained the anomaly? GISS’s computerised temperature maps seemed to show readings across a large part of Russia had been up to 10 degrees higher than normal. But when expert readers of the two leading warming-sceptic blogs, Watts Up With That and Climate Audit, began detailed analysis of the GISS data they made an astonishing discovery. The reason for the freak figures was that scores of temperature records from Russia and elsewhere were not based on October readings at all. Figures from the previous month had simply been carried over and repeated two months running.

Trying to “uncook” the global warming books isn’t so easy..

The error was so glaring that when it was reported on the two blogs - run by the US meteorologist Anthony Watts and Steve McIntyre, the Canadian computer analyst who won fame for his expert debunking of the notorious “hockey stick” graph - GISS began hastily revising its figures. This only made the confusion worse because, to compensate for the lowered temperatures in Russia, GISS claimed to have discovered a new “hotspot” in the Arctic - in a month when satellite images were showing Arctic sea-ice recovering so fast from its summer melt that three weeks ago it was 30 per cent more extensive than at the same time last year.

More Global Cooling »

Observe how this scientific information is noticeably absent from lunatic fringe blogs and their self proclaimed “science experts” who are instead worried about baby killing mills getting what they want from the President.

DailyTech - Sea Ice Growing at Fastest Pace on Record

An abnormally cool Arctic is seeing dramatic changes to ice levels. In sharp contrast to the rapid melting seen last year, the amount of global sea ice has rebounded sharply and is now growing rapidly. The total amount of ice, which set a record low value last year, grew in October at the fastest pace since record-keeping began in 1979.

Global Cooling - Thirty years of warmer temperatures go poof »

Lorne Gunter: Thirty years of warmer temperatures go poof
Don Easterbrook

In early September, I began noticing a string of news stories about scientists rejecting the orthodoxy on global warming. Actually, it was more like a string of guest columns and long letters to the editor since it is hard for skeptical scientists to get published in the cabal of climate journals now controlled by the Great Sanhedrin of the environmental movement.

Still, the number of climate change skeptics is growing rapidly. Because a funny thing is happening to global temperatures — they’re going down, not up.

DailyTech - Myth of Consensus Explodes: APS Opens Global Warming Debate

The American Physical Society, an organization representing nearly 50,000 physicists, has reversed its stance on climate change and is now proclaiming that many of its members disbelieve in human-induced global warming. The APS is also sponsoring public debate on the validity of global warming science. The leadership of the society had previously called the evidence for global warming “incontrovertible.”

APS Physics | FPS | Climate Sensitivity Reconsidered

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) concluded that anthropogenic CO2 emissions probably caused more than half of the “global warming” of the past 50 years and would cause further rapid warming. However, global mean surface temperature has not risen since 1998 and may have fallen since late 2001. The present analysis suggests that the failure of the IPCC’s models to predict this and many other climatic phenomena arises from defects in its evaluation of the three factors whose product is climate sensitivity:

The APS cautions the digestions of this “non peer reviewed study”.

The following article has not undergone any scientific peer review. Its conclusions are in disagreement with the overwhelming opinion of the world scientific community. The Council of the American Physical Society disagrees with this article’s conclusions.

Global Warming - Crimes Against Humanity for Doubting What’s Not Happening? »

Leave to a “Global Warming” alarmist to reccomend charges of “Crimes Against Humanity” for spreading doubt about something that is not happening.

Put oil firm chiefs on trial, says leading climate change scientist | Environment | The Guardian

James Hansen, one of the world’s leading climate scientists, will today call for the chief executives of large fossil fuel companies to be put on trial for high crimes against humanity and nature, accusing them of actively spreading doubt about global warming in the same way that tobacco companies blurred the links between smoking and cancer.

We know how important it is for the “Global Warming” or man made “Climate Change” folks to keep the dream alive because what else could they blame the death of Boy Scouts or rotten tomatoes or a “future increase in wildfires” on?

Well at least they will still be able to create games instructing children when die.

Al Gore - Using More Energy Than Ever »

Al Gore doing all he can to help Global Warming….INCREASE?

Seems the Gore-icle not only hasn’t lowered his use of energy but he has INCREASED his use by 10%!
Thanks to Sistertoldjah

Tennessee Center for Policy Research

In the year since Al Gore took steps to make his home more energy-efficient, the former Vice President’s home energy use surged more than 10%, according to the Tennessee Center for Policy Research.

“A man’s commitment to his beliefs is best measured by what he does behind the closed doors of his own home,” said Drew Johnson, President of the Tennessee Center for Policy Research. “Al Gore is a hypocrite and a fraud when it comes to his commitment to the environment, judging by his home energy consumption.”

In the past year, Gore’s home burned through 213,210 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity, enough to power 232 average American households for a month.

In February 2007, An Inconvenient Truth, a film based on a climate change speech developed by Gore, won an Academy Award for best documentary feature. The next day, the Tennessee Center for Policy Research uncovered that Gore’s Nashville home guzzled 20 times more electricity than the average American household.

After the Tennessee Center for Policy Research exposed Gore’s massive home energy use, the former Vice President scurried to make his home more energy-efficient. Despite adding solar panels, installing a geothermal system, replacing existing light bulbs with more efficient models, and overhauling the home’s windows and ductwork, Gore now consumes more electricity than before the “green” overhaul.

Since taking steps to make his home more environmentally-friendly last June, Gore devours an average of 17,768 kWh per month –1,638 kWh more energy per month than before the renovations – at a cost of $16,533. By comparison, the average American household consumes 11,040 kWh in an entire year, according to the Energy Information Administration.

I am wondering what amount Gore pulls off the grid and what he generates on-site (solar, wind…)?

Global Warming Alarmists Telling Kids When To Die »

Forget Al Gore’s carbon offset scam, now the Global Warming folks are telling kids they should just die.

The ABC (Australian Broadcast Corporation) has devised a nice little game telling kids when they would like to see them die.

Hey Kids when you’re done just click the cute little skull and crossbones and find out when we would like you to DIE !

Global Warming Hoax: Prepare To Be Disgusted - They`re Encouraging Kids To Die

When a collectivist thinker believes they are saving the world they are perfectly willing to sacrifice a few children for the good of the collective. Every socialist government / leader has done that throughout history. Who cares if a few children die if its for the good of the group / movement / revolution / ideal / religion / planet. The individual means nothing to them.

To see this hosted by a large broadcasting company is very disturbing.

Global Warming = Reduction of Hurricanes? »

The “Human Caused” Global Warming “scientists” are morphing and twisting the data anyway possible to fit the Global Warming agenda.

Warmer planet may mean fewer Atlantic hurricanes

Contrary to the widespread view that a warming world will bring more hurricanes, a controversial new study suggests the number of cyclones could actually drop in the North Atlantic.

———

Surprisingly, the model simulated fewer tropical storms as the ocean warmed, and fewer hurricanes. By the end of this century, it predicted, the Atlantic will see a drop in tropical storms of 27%, and a drop in hurricanes of 18%.

“This study does not support the idea there is a large increasing trend [in hurricanes] due to greenhouse warming,” says Knutson.

As the data suggests the planet may actually be cooling you are seeing a shift in methodology as to make any change in weather a consequence of “Human Caused” Global Warming or as they now call it “Climate Change” because “Climate Change” covers Global Cooling.

Fluorescent Light Bulb Nightmare ! »

Yup…Congress better outlaw those dangerous incandescent light bulbs as soon as possible!

Spills, Site Cleanup and Disposal | Mercury | US EPA

Fluorescent light bulbs contain a very small amount of mercury sealed within the glass tubing. EPA recommends the following clean-up and disposal guidelines:

Before Clean-up: Ventilate the Room

1. Have people and pets leave the room, and don’t let anyone walk through the breakage area on their way out.
2. Open a window and leave the room for 15 minutes or more.
3. Shut off the central forced-air heating/air conditioning system, if you have one.

Clean-Up Steps for Hard Surfaces

4. Carefully scoop up glass fragments and powder using stiff paper or cardboard and place them in a glass jar with metal lid (such as a canning jar) or in a sealed plastic bag.
5. Use sticky tape, such as duct tape, to pick up any remaining small glass fragments and powder.
6. Wipe the area clean with damp paper towels or disposable wet wipes and place them in the glass jar or plastic bag.
7. Do not use a vacuum or broom to clean up the broken bulb on hard surfaces.

Clean-up Steps for Carpeting or Rug

4. Carefully pick up glass fragments and place them in a glass jar with metal lid (such as a canning jar) or in a sealed plastic bag.
5. Use sticky tape, such as duct tape, to pick up any remaining small glass fragments and powder.
6. If vacuuming is needed after all visible materials are removed, vacuum the area where the bulb was broken.
7. Remove the vacuum bag (or empty and wipe the canister), and put the bag or vacuum debris in a sealed plastic bag.

Disposal of Clean-up Materials

8. Immediately place all cleanup materials outside the building in a trash container or outdoor protected area for the next normal trash.
9. Wash your hands after disposing of the jars or plastic bags containing clean-up materials.
10. Check with your local or state government about disposal requirements in your specific area. Some states prohibit such trash disposal and require that broken and unbroken mercury-containing bulbs be taken to a local recycling center.

Future Cleaning of Carpeting or Rug: Ventilate the Room During and After Vacuuming

11. The next several times you vacuum, shut off the central forced-air heating/air conditioning system and open a window prior to vacuuming.
12. Keep the central heating/air conditioning system shut off and the window open for at least 15 minutes after vacuuming is completed.

The ignorance and knee jerking by the enviro-thugs is amazing.

Energy Efficiency - Congress Likely to Pass Incandescent Light Bulb Ban - thedailygreen.com

As the global shift toward green continues, Congress has shown they are taking concerns over climate change, pollution and resource use seriously. Can it be said that they’re starting to see the light?
