By David Kreutzer, Ph.D. ~ The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) recently released its report on the impact of a carbon tax. (Disclaimer: I provided comments to the CBO on a draft of the report, earlier this year.) The economic parts were pretty sensible and conclude that (be sure you are sitting down)—there are no free […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ The ABC mentioned in the title is the Australian National Broadcaster, the ABC, (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) It has no relationship whatsoever with the ABC Network in the U.S. The program is Lateline, the late night Current Affairs program. Last night the program featured an interview with the American Global Warming commentator […]
By Alan Caruba ~ After a tornado tore through Moore, Oklahoma in 1999, people returned and rebuilt their homes and other structures destroyed by it. Many of the homes, instead of including a basement, were rebuilt on concrete slabs that offer no protection when high winds tear them loose. The elementary school was believed to […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ This is despicable, that while rescue operations are still going on, some people are using this tragedy to push their Climate Change/Global Warming agenda…..TonyfromOz. Rescuers are still digging children out of a collapsed school, but warmists are already trying to turn the Oklohama disaster into a poster for the climate change/global […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ The BBC concedes what The Age still can’t: Since 1998, there has been an unexplained “standstill” in the heating of the Earth’s atmosphere. UPDATE More unexpected news. Global warming could actually mean fish breed better, says a new paper in Global Change Biology: Increased CO2 stimulates reproduction in a coral reef […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Remember how cynically Al Gore exploited Hurricane Katrina to flog his eco-propaganda, An Inconvenient Truth? Now I’m going to show you, recently released, the actual ocean temperature. Of course when the oceans get warmer, that causes stronger storms. We have seen in the last couple of years, a lot of big […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ When will (Australian) ABC science presenter Robyn “100 metres” Williams apologise for this scaremongering in 2007, at the height of the global warming scare: Andrew Bolt: I’m telling you, there’s a lot of fear out there. So what I do is, when I see an outlandish claim being made…so Tim Flannery […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ The Climate Change Minister sounds under pressure: Senior cabinet minister Greg Combet has attacked some of his Labor Party colleagues as ‘’whingers’’ in an angry and expletive-laden speech to supporters and donors… At a party fund-raising dinner last Monday, Mr Combet delivered a withering critique of the doomsayers in his own […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ I watched the global warming scare this week drowning in a pool of red ink, right on my television screen. I don’t just mean Climate Change Minister Greg Combet being forced yesterday to eat his mendacious words, having blown a gigantic hole in the Budget . First there was Monday night’s […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Lord Monckton plans to send around a monthly graph of global temperature, contrasting what the warmist models predicted with what actually happened: A monthly benchmark graph, circulated widely to the news media, will help to dispel the costly notion that the world continues to warm at a rapid and dangerous rate… […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ The US isn’t feeling the global warming that was supposedly out of control: At the two-thirds mark for meteorological spring, 2013 was the second coldest spring on record – slightly warmer than 1975. Larry Bell in Forbes: Even Western Europe, the cradle of carbon-caused climate craziness and cap-and-trade corruption, is feeling […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ The great global warming pause continues: When looking at this chart, what is important is noticing the values in degrees at the left of the chart on the YAxis, that vertical axis. Note that here they are shown in TENTHS of a degree Celsius. So when you look at the blue […]
By James Delingpole ~ Now that global warming is completely unravelling, I want to elaborate on a point I made a few blogposts back about the role of humanities graduates in this great debate. On the face of it, their record isn’t good. Some of the most influential promulgators of climate nonsense have been arts […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Professor Judith Curry’s statement yesterday to a U.S. House of Representatives subcommittee investigating global warming: I am Chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology… If all other things remain equal, it is clear that adding more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere will warm […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Oklahoma University’s Professor David Deming on the real deniers: The Northern Hemisphere is experiencing unusually cold weather. Snow cover last December was the greatest since satellite monitoring began in 1966. The United Kingdom had the coldest March weather in 50 years, and there were more than a thousand record low temperatures […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Strange. An Australian paper claiming unprecedented warming of our part of the world is quickly exposed as having made a howler that causes it to be withdrawn. Yet slabs of it seem now to have been included in the IPCC’s upcoming review of global warming. Too convenient to exclude? UPDATE The […]
By Alan Caruba ~ Monday, April 22, is Earth Day. Begun in 1970, it led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency, along with the Clean Air, Clean Water, and Endangered Species Acts. It is the global platform for the Big Lie that carbon dioxide (CO2) is causing the Earth to warm and the […]
It is time to hold government accountable for mismanagement, misallocation of resources and mindless regulations that hurt our economy. This article also appeared in the Washington Times on April 18, 2013. By Paul Driessen ~ Americans must no longer ignore false realities and double standards that threaten our health and prosperity. Private sector errors and […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Dr Roy Spencer is the US science team leader for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer flying on NASA’s Aqua satellite: Courtesy of John Christy, and based upon data from the KNMI Climate Explorer, below is a comparison of 44 climate models versus the UAH and RSS satellite observations for global lower […]
By Andrew Bolt ~ Climate Change Minister Greg Combet in April 2012:: KELLY: Have you looked at the Bloomberg New Energy Finance prediction which suggests that the international carbon prices could be as low as $5 a tonne by 2020 let alone by 2015? COMBET: Well I have discussed a range of the forecasts while […]
By Alan Caruba ~ The New Jersey chapter of the Sierra Club emailed to invite me to attend a “conversation on climate change in a post-Sandy New Jersey” intended to focus on the “impacts of fossil fuel pollution” later this month. “We need to take action to address and prevent the future impacts of climate […]
