Global Warming

Two Russian icebreakers have become stuck in metre thick ice fields, on their return from a journey to escort supplies to Russia’s northernmost port. More counterexamples. From the Siberian Times:  Icebreakers make historic Arctic voyage, then get stuck in frozen sea on return journey By The Siberian Times reporter 17 January 2017 Vessels could be […]

I asked the same questions when I read the NY Times article and the CNN report.  They say that mathematics is the language of science, which is a way of saying that science is quantitative. It is moved forward by numbers and measurements, not just by qualitative observations. “It seems hot out” is not science.

Help me out here. I don’t see anywhere in the constitution where the POTUS has the authority to give money away.  Eric Worrall notified me of Obama’s parting present to the UN Gravy Train. By handing cash to the UN he can put it beyond Trump (and the voters) control. Obama gave a billion dollars

Spokane, Washington. January 2017.  Remember in 2000 when the climate scientists said that we wouldn’t know what snow was any more?

As even high school math students know, you need better than 90% confidence (preferably 95%). The Global Warming Alarmists just don’t have it.  As can be seen from the above graphic, the slope is positive from January 1998 to December 2016, however with the error bars, we cannot be 95% certain that warming has in

In 2014, Bill Nye said that the drought in California was caused by global warming.  And in the case of the California drought, a recent study suggests that there is 95 percent confident that human-caused climate change tripled the chance of the development of a persistent high pressure system in the Northern Pacific Ocean, which is the

It’s too cold to have school in Idaho!  Several area schools will be closed Friday as the cold weather continues to reach negative numbers in eastern Idaho. Here is a list of schools that have announced closings for Friday. • Idaho Falls School District 91 • Bonneville Joint School District 93 • Monticello Montessori Public

Another global warming record. Boise sets TWO snowfall records. Remember when Al Gore said there would be no more snow in the world?  This morning, the National Weather Service measured a record 15 inches of snow on the ground at the Boise Airport. That breaks the record for total snowfall sitting on the ground, on any

An oldie but a goodie. Britain’s Channel 4 has produced a devastating documentary titled “The Great Global Warming Swindle.” It has apparently not been broadcast by any of the networks in the United States. But, fortunately, it is available on the Internet. Distinguished scientists specializing in climate and climate-related fields talk in plain English and

Finally, people are questioning the whole myth of the “97% consensus” thing.  Perhaps it was when CNN’s Christiane Amanpour said that 99.9% of scientists believe in global warming.  That 97% consensus myth has been propagated by the Obama Administration.  As you read through this article, ask yourself: which model has the Obama Administration agree with,

Don’t you just love the totalitarianism of the left? A California State University academic believes President-elect Donald Trump should be barred from using the Internet because he’s a global warming skeptic. Joseph Palermo, a history professor and writer at the Cal State, suggested that Republicans who don’t believe in so-called man-made global warming should not

The WaPo repeatedly calls it a “cold snap,” naturally. If the temperatures were 30-50° above normal, you know they’d be calling it proof of global warming.   “Rare coast-to-coast cold snap to engulf Lower 48 late next week,” reads the Post headline. “The cold is predicted to consume almost the entire nation, from the Pacific Northwest

In the world of climate science, the skeptics are coming in from the cold. Researchers who see global warming as something less than a planet-ending calamity believe the incoming Trump administration may allow their views to be developed and heard. This didn’t happen under the Obama administration, which denied that a debate even existed. Now,

Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources site no longer says humans cause climate change The website of Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources no longer says that humans and greenhouse emissions cause climate change. The new language says that causes of global warming are “are being debated and researched by academic entities.” Finally! Some real debate may

“NOAA creates the warming trend by altering the data,” says Tony Heller over at realclimatescience.com NOAA claims that US temperatures rose 1.5°F since the 19th century, says Heller. The problem with that claim is that “100% Of US Warming Is Due To NOAA Data Tampering.” Raw data in blue. Data as reported by NOAA in orange. The

Professor Joseph A. Palermo, writing for the Huffington Post, thinks anyone who doesn’t agree with climate alarmism shouldn’t be allowed to use any of the products of science. You have to love the way that progressives like to censure the speech of people they disagree with.  Republicans, Climate Change, And The New Reality Joseph A. PalermoProfessor,

There’s no evidence of global warming in western Siberia, says the Siberian Times. The Khanti-Mansi region set a new record with a bone-crushing minus 62C (-79.6F) at the Bolshoe Olkhovskoe oilfield. The village of Kazym in the same district of Beloyarsky hit minus 58C (-72.4F). “In Nadym, it nudged minus 50C, and all schools were closed. In Tyumen,

You fill in the blank.  The Electoral College is Thwarting Our Ability to … “Fund Women’s Healthcare”  “Strengthen Social Security” “Blame ISIS Attacks on the NRA and Refrigeration” … The choices are endless.  It reminds me of the left’s memes concerning global warming — which is why putting these two together is so hysterical. 

This from Forbes. Finally, the media feels safe to talk facts.  Updated data from NASA satellite instruments reveal the Earth’s polar ice caps have not receded at all since the satellite instruments began measuring the ice caps in 1979. Since the end of 2012, moreover, total polar ice extent has largely remained above the post-1979 average. The updated data
