January 6th, 2010 Gerald Warner: Wow! That Copenhagen package really worked. Global warming has been dramatically reversed. In fact, if Al Gore could see his way to turning the heat back up just a little, most of us would be deeply appreciative… “Climate science” is the oxymoron of the century. There is not a city, town or hamlet in the country that has had its weather conditions correctly forecast, over periods as short as 12 hours, during the past week. This is the “exceptionally mild winter” that the climate change buffoons warned us would occur as a consequence of global warming. Their credibility is 20 degrees below zero. Yet nothing shames them, nothing persuades them to come out of the bunker with their hands high and “fess up”. Patronisingly fobbing off the public with fabricated excuses has become second nature to them. Latterly they have been concocting alibis about the Gulf Stream to explain Britain’s Arctic conditions. Uh-huh? Is it the Gulf Stream that has frozen the Vistula and given Poland a temperature of –25C? Is it the Gulf Stream that has caused the worst blizzards in Beijing since 1951? The entire Northern Hemisphere is frozen. The world looks like a Christmas pudding with icing on the top. That is completely normal, part of the random climate fluctuations with which our ancestors were familiar. Yet fraudulent scientists have gained millions of pounds by taking selective samples of natural climate change, whipping up a Grande Peur and using it to advance the cause of world government, state control and fiscal despoliation of citizens. 2010 should be the year when all that ends. It is time for Zero Tolerance of AGW fraudsters and their political masters. It is time to say: Green taxes? We won’t pay them. Nor will we vote for or permit to remain in office any politician or party that supports the AGW fraud. This year is one of those rare occasions when we have an opportunity to punish and control our political masters – provided Britons have the will to break with the two-party system. Due to the rise of smaller parties – itself the consequence of the misgovernment of the Lab/Lib/Con consensus – it is a buyer’s market. The rule of thumb should be: any party that supports the global warming scam is ineligible for our votes. It doesn’t matter how ingrained one’s loyalty may once have been to one of the “major” parties, the time has come to impose the popular will on politicians who have learned, since the abolition of capital punishment in 1965, that by forming an anti-democratic consensus they can dictate to the public. The coming general election is going to be an intelligence test. If people realise that voting for the slightly less objectionable choice gets them nowhere, that by holding out for what they really want they can actually obtain it, then we may be able to liberate ourselves from the tree-hugging New/Blue Labour consensus. If we fail to rise to that challenge we shall forfeit the right to complain about five more years of PC oppression. That is the answer: Zero Tolerance of “Green” agendas. |

The 6pm bulletin went to some lengths to explain that what we are now experiencing is 'weather' - but that the grave problem of 'climate' still remains ;) Here's sobering link to the plight of Peruvian Indians - who are suffering badly from increasingly long and bitter winters. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010...rs-winter-cold The suffering of their children is airily ascribed to the Indian's own 'micro climate', which has produced freezing temperatures in a rapidly warming world. I can foresee 'microclimate' becoming the explanation of choice when the Warmist's are confronted by growing evidence that things are getting colder, not hotter. This snow, for example, is just down to the UK's microclimate..... |

I guess the Telegraph knows their target market of senile halfwits only too well. The weather at the moment is roughly what we should have at this latitude were it not for the warming influence of the Altantic and Gulf Stream and our normal prevailing SW wind pattern. Global warming means the *global* average gets higher. It does not mean that everywhere gets slightly warmer by the same amount. We could very well be losers. UK climate is abnormally warm for its high latitude. Were it not for the UK maritime influence on climate Birmingham and Manchester would expect to have weather like Edmonton in Canada which is at a roughly similar latitude. And that is basically what we end up with when the wind blows directly off the cold NE continental land mass. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmonton Most gardeners are already well aware of climate change, at least if they keep records of when things come into flower.

That would be the same prime minister who as chancellor, told us that the current bust couldn't happen because he was so shit hot, and told us as PM that we were better placed to recover from it when it happened, and that we would come out of recession before other countries, again because he was so wonderful, yes?

It's all part of the game. A BBC reporter comes on the 10pm news to explain that there's a difference between climate and weather, leading listeners to imagine that some people didn't know that. It's a question of fraudulently controlling the terms of the debate. Why, I've even noticed there are people on usenet who do it too!

Some days some stocks go up in price, other days they go down. On yet other days some different stocks increase (or decrease in price. It is very difficult to forecast (there's that word again) which particular stocks will go up (or down) on a particular day. However we can spot trends by looking back over market prices for the past, say, 30 years. Over that period what do we see? Well lookitat: overall, stock prices have increased. Would you be willing to bet your pension that this trend will continue - yes you would. In fact that's precisely what pension funds are betting on. Does this mean that if you buy one solitary stock on one day and the next day it drops in price that therefore _all_ stock prices over the whole planet are not increasing in time? No, it does not. Hopefully the point has been understood now .... |

Without it, it is no more than opinion.... A week or two I asked abelard, following Copenhagen, if there was such thing published as graph showing CO2 levels on one axis, and Global Temperatures on the other. This simply must exist as it is the fundamental support for the AGW position. He replied that it's in IPCC3, and gave me a link to that document. Not the specific reference I was after, but the whole document. It later transpired that a counter-Copenhagen letter written by Monckton makes it clear that no such graph has been published by any of the AGW supporters, although Monckton then uses IPCC data to show that full implementation of Copenhagen, at a cost of trillions, will save 0.02 degC of global warming. A couple of things spring from this. Abelard does not understand what he has read, having failed to grasp that the claimed key point of IPCC3 isn't there. He is clearly unfamiliar with scientific works, or he would be aware that it is the norm to give journal, volume, date, paper title, page, and author(s) as the reference to a particular claim. He needs to do this in order to make the links to items in his badly-coloured web site accessible, as a matter of urgency. At present it is no better than saying 'I published a paper in The journal of Spacecraft and Rockets, look it up', and expecting the enquirer to do all the work. On the other had, such a slapdash procedure could be used to disguise the unusable and irrelevant that has otherwise been advanced as authoritative and analytical. At a glance, it is possible from the two graphs 'offered ' as 'evidence' on the offending page to guess with short odds at a trend line. Neither would be encouraging to a climate change alarmist. You really must revise your web pages to give them more value (REFERENCE!) ,and preferably re format to something other than the crasss primary colours which would be attractive to my 7yo grandson and his friends but not appropriate for something intended to be treated seriously (? - or have I missed the point :-)? ) by a wider audience. Failing that, stop wasting your, and for that matter everybody's time with your self seeking posts. I've tried putting such things to abelard in the past, but his only response is essentially name-calling. -- from Kim Bolton |

US "Dittohead Science" is a pack of lies carefully constructed to confuse the general public into ignoring the scientific evidence. Sadly it is working all too well and climate scientists are not explaining things in a way that the public can comprehend. There is a negative cyclical influence at the moment on the downside of a small warming peak that occurs roughly every 60 years. You can see it in the published data. It made the warming in 1990-2000 larger than was due to AGW alone and it is presently hiding the continuing rising trend. Similar peaks can be seen at 1940 and 1880 see for example: http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/data/te...ure/nhshgl.gif And for just the Atlanic MDO component http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanti...al_oscillation Regards, Martin Brown |
