New UN global warming report to 'dial back the alarm...points lowers estimates on global warming (WSJ)

'A work of epic and apocalyptic proportions is soon to dominate your evening viewing...an epic set to regale us with dark tales of coastal cities and islands submerging beneath the waves; of entire species, including mankind, coming under threat; of polar bears without ice floes to play on, whilst they too face extinction.'

'Usually, 'Year in Review' type of stories are saved up until the end of the year, but when it comes to climate change—an issue for which the president has declared “we need to act”—once a year is apparently not enough.  So, NOAA’s 'Year in Review' comes out at the end of December and then is rerun like old Seinfeld episodes the next summer.'

Morano: 'With Obama now invoking God, this report is a serious threat...Governments cannot control weather and climate...but the report implies we can control the weather. At the same time it wants to control the economy. It's as though the World Economic Forum report looked at Obama's green stimulus and instead of seeing a fiasco -- which it was -- they looked at it and said wow, how can we expand this globally'

'2012 finishes with a ranking of 54, making it an unremarkable 46th most extreme, out of 103' -- 'With global warming failing to materialise as planned, NOAA and others have been desperate to show that extreme weather is on the increase, and that mankind is responsible. In recent years, they have been running a 'US Climate Extremes Index'

Dems tally violent weather in new report to push for climate action: 'It's as if global warming has stacked the deck with extra jokers, making some weather events more frequent and severe and increasing the chances of an event far outside the norm.'

Climate Depot Response: 'Jokers' is a great analogy. The warmist jokers have reduced themselves to medieval witchcraft -- seeing evidence of CO2's evil black magic in every weather event.'
