Global Warming

BOISE, Idaho: State officials say new K-12 science standards — which include for the first time references to global warming and the Big Bang Theory — won’t be submitted to the Idaho Legislature until 2018 after receiving a surprise rejection from lawmakers earlier this year. Lawmakers spiked the first version of the standards in February […]

The great climate exit The “CLEXIT” Campaign (CLimate Exit) which originated in Australia was inspired by the Brexit decision of the British people to withdraw from the increasingly dictatorial EU bureaucracy. Clexit is spreading world-wide (16 countries already). Clexit aims to prevent ratification of the costly and dangerous Paris global warming treaty which is being promoted

Northern Hemisphere hurricane-free for the first time since 1977. The hurricane season begins officially on June 1st each year and ends on November 1, and corresponds to the time of year when the waters of the Gulf of Mexico have a sufficiently high temperature to generate these storms.

Climate change is all-purpose excuse for Big Green and federal misfeasance and malfeasance. In short, whatever “hotter, drier, longer” forest fires we are witnessing today have nothing to do with fossil fuels, plant-fertilizing carbon dioxide, or “dangerous manmade climate change.” They have a lot to do with incompetent forest mismanagement policies and practices. bureaucratsFar too

Senator Inhofe, a steadfast climate skeptic, has raised concerns about “brainwashing” of kids to convince them to worry about climate change. Via the Washington Post:  In his grandchild’s question — ‘Why is it you don’t understand global warming?’— Sen. Jim Inhofe sees ‘brainwashing’ The senator, speaking last week on the syndicated Eric Metaxas radio show, said

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is not completely opposed to a carbon tax, her campaign chair said Tuesday. “Right now we’ve not proposed a carbon tax,” John Podesta told an audience Tuesday at a climate change event in Philadelphia during the Democratic National Convention. “We believe we can get the job done. But if Congress wants to come forward with

The family & I just got back from a trip up to Glacier Bay National Park. It was breathtaking, and I even got to see some glacier calving. I’ll post that later.  I found the map that the National Park Service provided to us absolutely fascinating. It shows the extent of the glaciers by date.

Here’s an illustration from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) showing 11 cycles of global warming and cooling over the last 800,000 years, over a temp range of 30 degrees. Notice that CO2 levels have gone up and down just as dramatically as the temperature. The cool eras tend to be much longer, while the

North East passage completely blocked by ice that the team said didn’t exist in summer months. 20 July 2016 – A group of adventurers, sailors, pilots and climate scientists (Tony Heller calls them “climate clowns”) that recently started a journey around the North Pole in an effort to show the lack of ice, has been blocked

Notice the reason why: historical data doesn’t match the models. So instead of changing the models, they choose to change the data. There’s only one reason a “scientist” would do that: politics and money.  A new NASA-led study finds that almost one-fifth of the global warming that has occurred in the past 150 years has been

We’ve been 129 months (nearly 11 years) without a Category 3 (or greater) storm hitting the US mainland.  You may recall that Al Gore said in “An Inconvenient Truth” that hurricanes would be increasing during global warming, and that the National Weather Service was going to have to add a new Category 6 because the

This is scary stuff. Say goodbye to freedom of speech. This is what happens when politics drives science.  Do people understand that it’s been warmer for most of the last 7,000 years than it is today? A little science would go a long way to removing ignorance.  Democratic operatives responsible for creating their party’s platform this

This Associated Press article ran in the newspaper on 5 Apr 1979.  This is before global warming became the “settled position” of science.   

Facing a fraud probe over whether ExxonMobil misled the public on climate change, Republican attorneys general from 13 states want to give their Democratic counterparts a taste of their own medicine, saying, “If minimization is fraud, exaggeration is fraud.” The Republican attorneys general openly protested the work of a coalition of Democratic attorneys general that

From The Washington Times:  Whenever climate models overestimate temperatures linked to rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, scientists have pointed to a convenient fall guy: aerosols, which cool the planet and act as a counterweight to global warming. But what if the cooling influence of aerosols isn’t as powerful as believed? Preliminary findings from
