Climategate Plus Ten

November 21, 2019 by

0

By Craig Rucker ~ Ten years ago the “Climategate” scandal broke. A group of climate scientists consistently refused to comply with public records requests for data and communications concerning their research.  What was the quality of the research the public had lavished so many taxpayer dollars on?  They did not want us to know. Then […]

Beyond Partisan Ideology and Big-Oil Interests: Why Climate Skepticism Thrives

May 9, 2019 by

Cornwall Alliance   ~        By Vijay Jayaraj ~   It is easy to associate climate skepticism with the Republican Party and climate alarmism with the Democratic Party. It’s also easy to brand skeptics as beneficiaries of big oil and proponents of unfettered capitalism and alarmists as in the pocket of big wind and solar […]

Sore Spot: Trump Raised ‘Climategate’ E-Mails Of Liberal Activists In NY Times Interview

November 26, 2016 by

0

By Tim Graham ~ The New York Times released a full transcript of its on-the-record chat with the President-Elect, and while the liberal media sensed a “softening” of Donald Trump’s campaign rhetoric, climate skeptics were pleased he brought up the “Climategate” scandal that liberals would rather forget. Back in 2009, the Times refused to propagate […]

By Ron Arnold ~ “What if climate change appears to be just mainly a multi-decadal natural fluctuation? They’ll kill us probably.” This private musing between two climate scientist colleagues first surfaced along with a whole raft of embarrassing material in 2011, when the anonymous Climategate leaker who calls himself “Mr. FOIA” leaked his second set […]

Global Warmists Confirmed as Cheats, Liars, Fakers; Pope Still Catholic; etc

March 18, 2012 by

By James Delingpole ~ I wonder how the BBC environment correspondent Richard Black would report it if the Climatic Research Unit’s Phil Jones were suddenly to confess that everything he’d said in the last two decades about the anthropogenic warming threat was total rubbish. I’m guessing something like: “Hero climate scientist announces glorious discovery: world […]

Climategate, Part Duh!

By Alan Caruba At what point will it finally occur to the pea-brained legion of journalists, academics, alleged scientists, United Nations propagandists, and others still blathering about “global warming” and “climate change” that there is no global warming and that the climate has been changing for the past 4.5 billion years on planet Earth? It […]

ClimateGate 2.0: 5,000 New Emails Confirm Pattern of Deception and Collusion by Alarmists

November 23, 2011 by

By Noel Sheppard Almost exactly two years since damning email messages were released from Great Britain’s University of East Anglia showing a pattern of deception and collusion between scientists involved in spreading the global warming myth, a new batch of such correspondence has emerged that seems destined to get as little press coverage as the […]

By Noel Sheppard For years NewsBusters has informed readers of the tremendous financial ties to spreading the anthropogenic global warming myth. On Sunday, coincidentally  the second anniversary of 2010’s ClimateGate scandal, Britain’s Daily Mail exposed the BBC’s Roger Harrabin for having taken £15,000 from the very university at the heart the damning email messages demonstrating […]

By Alan Caruba The University of Virginia, after vigorously resisting a Freedom of Information Act (FOI) request for data related to the emails of Michael Mann, was the subject of a court order to make them available. While global warming is known worldwide for its claim that manmade warming would doom the Earth, the names […]

Krugman: No ‘Scientific Impropriety’ in ClimateGate – ‘Hide the Decline’ an ‘Effective Graphical Presentation’

March 29, 2011 by

0

By Noel Sheppard For many years, conservatives have been claiming that Paul Krugman makes up economic data to support his political conclusions. Proving the point, the New York Times columnist said Monday, “Nothing in the [ClimateGate email] correspondence suggested any kind of scientific impropriety,” and in the truly damning message from Phil Jones, the former […]

Global Warming, R.I.P.

March 13, 2011 by

0

By Alan Caruba Have you noticed that you rarely hear “global warming” mentioned on radio or television and the term rarely occurs any more in the print media? One reason is that it has been replaced with “climate change” and the other reason is that the only people talking about climate change seem to be […]

US Lawmakers Vote to Strip IPCC of $13 Million

By Andrew Bolt The leading warmist lobby group may have its money tap turned off: The U.S. House of Representatives today voted by a wide margin — 244-179 — to defund the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The $13-million cut, which garnered support from some Democrats, is part of the House’s budget for […]

How Sceptics Are Frozen Out: The Antarctic Example

By Andrew Bolt From the latest Spectator, a gotcha on the corruption peer-review process that the Climategate emails suggested but which Nicholas Lewis and Matt Ridley now demonstrate. Spectator editor Nelson Fraser sums up (the Lewis/Ridley article is behind a pay wall): In January 2009, Nature magazine ran a cover story … conveying dramatic news […]

The Cancun Wealth Redistribution Conference

December 8, 2010 by

By Paul Driessen It’s become a predictable annual rite. Several weeks prior to each global warming gabfest, breathless news stories, editorials, op-eds and pontifications begin hitting the airwaves and print pages, reaching a crescendo as the conference opens. So it was with Copenhagen; so it is with Cancun. Actually, it may be worse this year. […]

Lomborg’s Wrong Solution to a Partly Real Problem

November 30, 2010 by

0

By Paul Driessen and Professor Robert Carter Bjorn Lomborg (pictured) has been energetically courting publicity for his new film, “Cool It.” The film has attracted minimal box office sales thus far, but he has been publishing articles at an impressive clip, in a quest for more exposure, influence and funding. He correctly observes that public […]

Climate Change, No Longer Scary in Europe

November 24, 2010 by

By Dr. Hans Labohm The upcoming climate change (and wealth redistribution) summit in Cancun – coupled with Bjorn Lomborg’s ongoing publicity campaign for his new film – makes one thing painfully obvious. The fight against the delusion of dangerous man-made global warming remains an uphill struggle. For decades the climate debate has been obfuscated by […]

November 20, 2009: The Day “Global Warming” Ended

November 18, 2010 by

By Alan Caruba November 20, 2009 is an important date because it was the day that “global warming” ended. It was the day that a total fabrication, a hoax, was revealed to be the work of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), aided and abetted by a vast network of governmental and […]

By Ken Shepherd An Oxford University think tank is taking the media to task for not doing more to whip up a frenzy about global warming.

By Alan Caruba If I had engaged in activities that involved fleecing the governments of the United States and the United Kingdom of billions in public funds in the name of “climate research”, and it was found that I had manipulated the data to advance the “global warming” hoax, wouldn’t I be facing charges of […]
