- Watch Now: Climate Depot’s Morano on Fox News on Obama/EPA War on Coal: ‘U.S. has 3 & half times the coal reserves as we do shale gas. We have 27% of world’s coal reserves’
- UK Register: ‘Ex climate skeptic’ Muller’s latest BEST stuff is the worst so far — ‘Non-partisan’ group abandons pretence of neutrality
- Sen. Sanders: Sen. Inhofe’s position on climate change is ‘dangerously wrong’
- Matt Ridley: The IPCC And Confirmation Bias: ‘Carried away by confirmation bias, scientists modeled the future worsening of malaria, and the IPCC accepted this as a given’
'In the early days of global-warming research, scientists argued that warming would worsen malaria by increasing the range of mosquitoes' -- But 'In a recent paper, Peter Gething of Oxford University and his colleagues concluded that widespread claims that rising mean temperatures had already worsened malaria mortality were 'largely at odds with observed decreasing global trends'
- The Climategate and Jerry Sandusky Scandals: A Common Thread — ‘Spanier’s ‘investigation’ of Jerry Sandusky was so thoroughly inept that it got him fired’
'Spanier stated that he had 'complete confidence in how they handled allegations against Sandusky,' & he was fired very shortly thereafter. The Freeh report indicates the investigation was conducted for purpose of finding nothing...it was a cover-up. It wasn't the only time Spanier rigged an inept investigation for the purpose of finding nothing. In 2010, his investigators found that Michael Mann had done nothing wrong when he invented his 'hockey stick trick'
- Muller-the-pretend-skeptic makes three claims. He’s half right on one: 1) Claims ‘He’s a converted skeptic. This is ‘naked, demonstrably wrong, PR…he’s a dishonest alarmist’
2) Claims 'the world has warmed by 0.3C/decade. (He's half right — he's only exaggerating 100%.) 3) Claims 'that's it mostly due to man-made emissions. (Baseless speculation.) Not only did the warming start 200 years before the emissions, but it declined as the emissions increased in the 1940s and it's flattened in the last decade even though emissions are higher than ever'
- How The U.S. Hockey Stick Was Built: ‘As of 1999, there wasn’t any warming in the U.S. — ‘At that time, GISS US temperature data showed an 80+ year decline in US temperatures…’
'...with 1934, 1921 & 1931 being the 3 hottest years. This data has been deleted from the GISS web site...It has been archived...The next graph shows the 1920-1999 changes which Hansen made to the US temperature record since 1999...Hockey sticks are indeed man-made – by climate activists pretending to be scientific heads of government agencies'
- Data Tampering At USHCN/NASA GISS: ‘Your one stop shopping page for US Government climate data tampering’
'Measured USHCN daily temperature data shows a decline in US temperatures since the 1930s. But before they release it to the public, they put it thorough a series of adjustments which change it from a cooling trend to a warming trend'
- Weather station temperature claims overheated, report claims: U.S. temp record ‘U.S. has been systematically overinflated due to faulty data manipulation and ‘encroaching urbanity’
'They started making what they called corrections after the year 2000, which turned the U.S. temperature trend from completely flat to fairly steep warming. That's what Watts was questioning. The corrections were changing the temperature record,' Climate blogger Steven Goddard said. Several large adjustments hadn't been documented at all, boosting readings by as much as 1.5 degrees over older measurements'

The Media Is Lying About Greenland and Climate Change – It has in fact rained on Greenland before
Last week, media outlets across the globe claimed that there has been rain for the first time at the Greenland summit. “Rain fell at the normally snowy summit of Greenland for the first time on record,” read CNN’s headlines. Others went a step further and declared it a sign of climate doomsday. “Rain On Greenland Ice Sheet, Possibly A First, Signals Climate Change Risk,” read another headline. Unfortunately, for the mainstream media, climate history nearly always comes back to haunt their claims of unprecedented events. Records reveal that this is not the first rainfall in Greenland, and certainly not the first on the Greenland summit peak, which stands at around 10,000 feet.

Say what? Failing to act on climate change could ‘finally expose China as a global outlaw’!? — Not concentration camps, ethnic cleansing, slave labor, collectivism & authoritarian control?!
NY Post: Ponder this rhetorical question, posed by a columnist at The Hill: “Could climate change finally expose China as a global outlaw?” So it wasn’t the concentration camps that did it. Or the ethnic cleansing. Or the slave labor. Or the decades of collectivist-induced economic misery and authoritarian control. Or the state censorship. It was Beijing’s violations of the Paris Accord.
Indeed, certain pundits have been openly envious of the ability of Chinese Communists to compel their citizens to adopt carbon-mitigation policies. The commissars must be such a disappointment to them.

Arctic September Minimum Sea Ice Extent Trend RISING Over Past 10 Years – Norwegian Data
OSI Arctic sea ice minimum since 2012 ftp://osisaf.met.no/prod_test/ice/index/v2p1/nh/osisaf_nh_sie_daily.txt
September minimum trend has contradicted Al Gore’s predictions of an ice free Arctic. Whether sea ice has turned the corner and will start a recovery still remains to be seen. One thing is certain: The predictions of an ice-free Arctic soon made a decade ago were flat out wrong.

New York Times urges a stop to a changing climate! Claims ‘it is impossible to guarantee safety of people so long as the climate continues to change’
