CAP AND TRADE IS DEAD

I have been saying for years now that the climate change boondoggle was nothing but a way to keep funding flowing to research grants. Now there is proof. I have shown earlier that carbon dioxide is not a pollutant but instead essential to life.

Skeptics (global warming) Handbook

This has all the info you need to understand the non-crisis of Global warming from an Australian who was a fervent Global Warming/Climate Change/greenhouse gases advocate for almost 20 years. She now realizes how wrong she was!

DON’T LET THAT PHD FOOL YOU

My Aggie friend Jim Taylor from Harlingen, Texas writes: . It has been said that if one specializes enough to learn more and more about less and less, he will eventually know everything about nothing. After 50 years of observation, reading, listening, and only two degrees (B.S. and M.S.), at the age of 75 I can tell you from the works of others that:
1) There is no evidence to support the idea that global warming is produced by increased levels of CO2 in the atmosphere, whether produced by humans or not;
2) The warmest year(s) we had in the last 100 were about 1934 before humans began to produce CO2 amounts that might measurably increase its atmospheric levels;
3) It’s cooler now than it was 10 years ago; Human produced CO2 levels are 30% greater now than they were 10 years ago;
4) There has been approximately one half of one degree (0.5) to as much as 0.75 degree of measurable natural warming in the last 100 years; cooling may be occurring now; the temperature of 2007-2008 was down by 0.6C to the temperature of 1980;
5) If there has been global warming, it has been good for humans;
6) Increased CO2 levels have been good for plants, which feed humans and their animals;
7) The largest contributor to ‘greenhouse gases’ are wetlands’ water vapor, yet we try to preserve our wetlands;
8) The largest contributor to earth’s cooling is precipitation (rain); rain requires clouds; clouds require – yep, you guessed it: water vapor;
9) The computer models used by global warming alarmists’ data do not even consider precipitation as affected by warming (if it exists);
10) Models do not consider the variations in the movements of heavenly bodies in relation to each other, or even all the changes of the angles of the Earths axis in relation to heavenly bodies;
11) One average volcano produces more actual pollution (atmospheric floating particles) than what human existence has produced; this with lightning-caused forest fires dwarfs human particle pollution to insignificance; a super volcano can bring devastation to the Earth;
12) The total of naturally formed ice on the planet has not varied significantly in the last 100 years; only the location of the ice; at present more than usual is in the Antarctic, less than usual is in the Arctic; this recurs periodically;
13) The new ice cores show that in the past six global warmings over the past half million years, the temperature rises occurred on average 800 years before the accompanying rise in atmospheric carbon; if warming precedes carbon increases, carbon (CO2) increases cannot be the cause of warming;
14) Melted ocean ice cannot flood the planet, even if it were true that the ice is melting faster than it forms elsewhere; filling a container of ice with all the ice that will float does not result in its overflowing when it melts;
15) Global warming politics is based on fear-mongering alarmists seeking to relieve us of our freedom for increased bureaucracy; the proposed carbon tax is theft by Democrats;
16) This country has fallen behind in the use of the cleanest of all fuels in power production (nuclear generation);
17) Engines exist that can burn any known fuel which results in less CO2 emissions than that found in the atmosphere; instead of promoting their production, our government restricts our fossil fuel production, which we have in abundance underground and sea;
18) This political policy is promoted by “Chicken Little” people like Sarah B. Merrill (VMS/10, May) whom I judge to be sincere but inadequately informed, and by others who listen to them.
The leaders of this Environmentalism politics are usually people who do not have to work very hard to earn large incomes, feel guilty for this, and want us to share their guilt;
19) The people who write the reports for the IPCC (UN climate change think tank) are not themselves qualified scientists, but rather they are laymen environmentalist activists of organizations such as Greenpeace.
20) The proportion of qualified scientists who dissent with the man made global warming theory, doubt or question its existence or have no opinion either way is approximately 46 percent by polling; in the year 2007 there were 400 prominent scientists who disputed the man-made global warming theory (US Senate Report).
`
I will be glad to give a complete reference as to where these comments can be found (bibliography) in books, reports and online. One who looks for both sides of the argument will easily find them online. I’m surprised that Ms Merrill didn’t do this. Jim Taylor

Manhatten Declaration on Climate Change

"Global warming" is not a global crisis
We, the scientists and researchers in climate and related fields, economists, policymakers, and business leaders, assembled at Times Square, New York City, participating in the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change,
Resolving that scientific questions should be evaluated solely by the scientific method;
Affirming that global climate has always changed and always will, independent of the actions of humans, and that carbon dioxide (CO2) is not a pollutant but rather a necessity for all life;
Recognising that the causes and extent of recently observed climatic change are the subject of intense debates in the climate science community and that oft-repeated assertions of a supposed 'consensus' among climate experts are false;
Affirming that attempts by governments to legislate costly regulations on industry and individual citizens to encourage CO2 emission reduction will slow development while having no appreciable impact on the future trajectory of global climate change. Such policies will markedly diminish future prosperity and so reduce the ability of societies to adapt to inevitable climate change, thereby increasing, not decreasing, human suffering;
Noting that warmer weather is generally less harmful to life on Earth than colder:
Hereby declare:
That current plans to restrict anthropogenic CO2 emissions are a dangerous misallocation of intellectual capital and resources that should be dedicated to solving humanity's real and serious problems.
That there is no convincing evidence that CO2 emissions from modern industrial activity has in the past, is now, or will in the future cause catastrophic climate change.
That attempts by governments to inflict taxes and costly regulations on industry and individual citizens with the aim of reducing emissions of CO2 will pointlessly curtail the prosperity of the West and progress of developing nations without affecting climate.
That adaptation as needed is massively more cost-effective than any attempted mitigation and that a focus on such mitigation will divert the attention and resources of governments away from addressing the real problems of their peoples.
That human-caused climate change is not a global crisis.
Now, therefore, we recommend --
That world leaders reject the views expressed by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as well as popular, but misguided works such as "An Inconvenient Truth."
That all taxes, regulations, and other interventions intended to reduce emissions of CO2 be abandoned forthwith.
Agreed at New York, 4 March 2008

Global Warming Originator is Refuted

Al Gore's mentor and supporter James Hanson a NASA climatologist who originated the human caused global warming scare, which has now spread world wide, has been refuted by his former NASA boss Dr. John S. Theon. Read the full report from a senate EPW Blog. This report was sent to me by a reader and I am glad you are out there.

Russian View of Global Warming

Weather Expert Links Russia's Pipeline Shutdown to Global Cooling
Russia's decision to cut the flow of natural gas to Europe could be linked to reports that the planet is entering a new ice age, a leading weather expert says.
AccuWeather's chief hurricane and long-range forecaster Joe Bastardi said on Glenn Beck's radio program, "My theory . . . is that [Russian Prime Minister Vladimir] Putin knows what's going to happen, or he believes the same way I do about the overall climate pattern.
"So if you control the pipeline into Europe, you literally can control Europe without firing a shot — if you control the energy."
Russia supplies about one-quarter of the European Union's gas, 80 percent of it shipped through Ukraine's vast pipeline network. Russia cut off gas supplies to Europe on Jan. 7 just as the continent was gripped by freezing temperatures, possibly instigating a new Cold War.
One report published by the Russian news source Pravda Online stated, "The earth is now on the brink of entering another Ice Age, according to a large and compelling body of evidence from within the field of climate science.
"Many sources of data which provide our knowledge base of long-term climate change indicate that the warm, 12,000-year-long Holocene period will rather soon be coming to an end, and then the earth will return to Ice Age conditions for the next 100,000 years."
The report dismisses assertions that manmade emissions of carbon dioxide are causing global warming, noting: "Global temperatures precede or cause global CO2 changes, and not the reverse.
In other words, increasing atmospheric CO2 is not causing global temperatures to rise; instead the natural cycle increase in global temperature is causing global CO2 to rise."
Bastardi said in an interview with the Business and Media Institute cited by NewsBusters.com, "If you look at those Russian scientists, where a lot of these studies on it getting cold come from . . . what makes you think that Putin doesn't have some knowledge of that?"
