Wild and crazy weather extremes really are nothing new. I got the following compilation from reader Jimbo: ================================ Hi Pierre, Please consider putting up the following as a post. It concerns 1935 bad weather events. It’s intended to put things into perspective for younger folks. Below is a small selection of newspaper headlines from 1935 […]

UPDATE…read here: populartechnology.net/skeptics-smeared-as-holocaust-deniers.html —————————————————- Many of us were shocked at hearing the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) had sharply criticized University of Alabama climate scientist Dr. Roy Spencer because he finally decided to defend himself against the constant stream of Holocaust-laced slurs and abuse that had been thrown his way by rabid global warming activists over years. […]

Fire in the sky, torrential rains, droughts and Biblical floods – all supposedly brought on by the sins and wickedness of man. Is it really a surprise we are hearing it all once again today? Hail storm in Dordrecht, Holland, May 17, 1552. Image: Taschen Verlag, amazon.de. The online Spiegel today has a report on […]

I got a news e-mail from Craig Rucker of CFACT. It turns out that the environmental movement is turning into a mob of angry, frustrated white males who go around terrifying people. Look familiar? Scary, angry mob bearing torches threatens to shut you down. Image source: CFACT. If that isn’t spreading a message of terror. Ah […]

It’s becoming very clear that the real thrust behind the anthropogenic global warming movement is the systematic denial of cheap, efficient energy for the poor world so that they never attain a standard of living that developed countries have long been enjoying. Bill Nye confirms it in a debate with Marc Morano on FOX. Image cropped […]

I see New York Times science journalist Andrew Revkin has applied his musical talent to record and release a song criticizing evil black carbon: I’m still trying to figure out people like Revkin. They constantly rail against the very things that make their lives pleasant, safe and fulfilling. To me it’s as rational as hating African-Americans, […]

The skeptics haven’t had this much fun for as long as I can recall. Global warming scientists getting trapped in ice, North America gripped by a record-breaking cold snap, activist climate scientists blaming cold on warming Derek Hunter interviews outspoken climate science critic Marc Morano at WBAL 1090, click on the following link: www.wbal.com/marc-morano Marc […]

The metaphor just couldn’t be more fitting: desperate true believers of global warming/accelerating polar ice melt now find themselves trapped by thousands of square kilometers of summertime sea ice that wasn’t supposed to be there. No picture could better symbolize and communicate the intellectual bankruptcy and disillusionment of a faithful group who refuse to believe they […]

Perhaps some leading opinion-shapers in Germany have become aghast at the hysterical and hyper-irrational reaction coming from “climate scientists” in the wake of typhoon Yolanda, a single, destructive storm supposedly brewed by the misdeeds of darker forces, e.g. the 90 top carbon emitters of the world. Despite the progress science and technology we’ve seen since the […]

I had to shake my head when I came across Peter Gleick’s Twitter comment about a Toys R Us spot. Incredibly he writes: “My wife and I saw this ad and looked at each other speechless. And angry. Perhaps the most offensive we’ve ever seen.” Warning: If you hate happy kids, then you aren’t going to […]

A press release by the Max Planck Institute (MPI) describes how a recent study shows that people are not very willing to make sacrifices if the benefits follow only much later in the future. That’s no surprise. Immediate rewards make our brains rejoice and when such a reward beckons we’re happy to behave cooperatively. But if […]

The strategy of scaring people into action on climate change has backfired totally, so writes Kathrin Burger of the German leftist TAZ daily in a piece titled: Horror Scenarios Promote Depression. Psychologists say that many who have been listening excessively to climate alarmists are now ready for therapy. Photo: public domain – Marc NL It […]
