More rising against the hoax
A fellow blogger writes on the great Global Warming Myth.
Yes, I could be convinced, perhaps. But every time I begin to think, “Well, maybe....”, something like this drops into my mail box: [h/t to Judith]

Biofuels Inc.
The calls are growing for the end of biofuel subsidies.
“Biofuels are economical nonsense, ecologically useless and ethically indefensible,” Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, chairman of Nestl� SA, the world’s largest food company, wrote recently in a Wall Street Journal essay.
Time to admit a mistake was made and trying something else.

Dion’s carbon shock
How many more stories like this will it take for the Canadians to realize that chasing the imaginary green C02 monster will bankrupt them and the country?
While Stephane Dion promises the Liberals’ proposed $15-billion environmental tax would provide riches for the poor and tax cuts for all, he fails to mention consumers in most parts of the country would be in for some shocking electricity bills.
Harper’s comment of “insane” to describe the Green Shit plan is starting to make sense.

Enviro-terrorists killing the poor
More proof that climate change idiots are doing more harm than good.
Climate-change remedies can lead to greater poverty, starvation and disease, as well as widespread ecological destruction - some of the very misfortunes that they’re supposed to prevent. In our haste to address global warming, we have yet to think seriously about our policies’ unintended effects.
The results have been disastrous, and they’re only getting more so.

Turning on my lights
Don has a good post on the ridiculous Earth Hour ecoterrorism.
By the way, of course, the WWF should award some special prize to the North Korean government, for that government keeps North Koreans not in any meager “Earth Hour,” or even “Earth Day,” but in what WWFers might call “Earth Decades”—very little light ever. This picture of the Korean peninsula speaks volumes—the Dark Ages today; a society keeping its carbon footprint tiny. Of course, in doing so it keeps itself also desperately poor, often even to the point of starvation.
I really like this pic of how the North Koreans keep their lights off all the time.

Uphill
Hang on Bob, while the winds of political correctness swirl around your true comment.
General Motors Corp Vice Chairman Bob Lutz has defended remarks he made dismissing global warming as a “total crock of s---,” saying his views had no bearing on GM’s commitment to build environmentally friendly vehicles.

lgf: Y2K Bug Drastically Changes US Climate Data
More news you won’t read in your regularly scheduled programming.
According to the DailyTech blog, the NASA temperature data used to estimate the advance of global warming has been shown to be way off the mark, due to a Y2K bug in the graphing software&#xu2;014and the corrected charts tell a very different story: Blogger Finds Y2K Bug in NASA Climate Data.

Global warming exposed
An essential read by one of Canada’s most lucid conservative commentators.
What follows is a 9-page critique of the so-called “global warming” scare that has taken the world by storm. It took a lot of time and effort to pull this together. I hope readers will agree it is sufficiently comprehensive to put this whole topic in a reasonable perspective.

Green hypocrites
More proof that our so called leaders are hypocrites and that the far left are more
against wealth and success than the “damaging human footprint.”
Orwell would be proud of the doublespeak.

Sky still falling
Do the climate jihadists realise that the sky has been falling throughout human history?
Germany’s Hans von Storch, one of the world’s leading climate scientists, believes that climate change is for real and that humans are responsible. He also believes that we shouldn’t fear climate change, that predictions of doom are “hysterical” when they aren’t “completely idiotic and dubious,” and that many of the science establishment’s pronouncements on climate change are bereft of scientific merit.

Flik off
I don’t know about you, but I’ve had quite enough of the eco-jihad.

Global warming a problem
...on Mars.
Most people don’t pay attention to what is going on with our lifesource...the sun. It appears that not only the Earth is undergoing climate changes, but also Mars. While the focus in the mainstream media is always on environmental issues and blaming humans for these changes, the problem may be bigger than anything we can imagine. Things we can’t do a damn thing about.
How will the anti-industrialists blame humans this time?

More contradictory evidence against global warming.
If you thought February was particularly cold, you were right.

Green koolaid anti-dote
Finally, the sage of our day helps relieve some of the global clouding bullshit giving me a rock solid headache.
Indeed. If the science is so solid, maybe they could drag it out to the Arctic for the poor polar bears to live on now that the ice is melting faster than a coed’s heart at an Al Gore lecture.
I’m sorry to hear that the PM has been sipping the kool-aid, in order to secure some of the lemming votes in Central Canada. Guess this is political expediency.
At least Harper is still talking common sense. This is a good sign.
“I think the first realistic step in any such plan will be to try over the next few years to stabilize emissions and obviously over the longer term to reduce them,” he said. “I don’t think realistically we can tell Canadians: Stop driving your car; stop going to work; turn the heat off in the winter. These are not realistic solutions.”

Cattle Warming
This cartoon illustrates the absurdity that is global warming.
Where will we get our hamburgers if we ban cows?

Hurricane schmuriccane
More evidence that the forecasters and doomsayers don’t have a clue what they’re talking about.
Even before it began six months ago, the 2006 hurricane season already had exceeded all previous ones in several categories: hype, anticipation, prognostication and, perhaps, even dread.

Peak oil?
Don’t tell this to the end-of-the-world peak oil people.
The world has tapped only 18 percent of the total global supply of crude, a leading Saudi oil executive said Wednesday, challenging the notion that supplies are petering out.

The rest of the story
A little ditty on recycling and Harry Potter, and how you may think you’re doing your environmental best, when you really are not.
So, Greenpeace International is urging us all to waste resources, become marginally poorer, in pursuit of their particular vision of the world. How nice of them to do that for us.

Take it with a grain
Yet another study telling us common sense wins again: most foods, including salt, make no difference to your health when taken in moderation.
It’s a fact that salt saves many a meal.

Windy propaganda
Wind generation propaganda:
... and wind power facts.That giant three-bladed propeller at the Canadian National Exhibition hasn’t quite gone from White Elephant to Cash Cow with the disbursement of $32,000 in dividends to investors, but it’s a welcome breath of fresh air for alternative energy proponents.
They suggest that if Germany presses ahead with its plan to double the number of wind turbines, annual energy costs for consumers will rise from €1.4 billion to €5.4 billion

There is gas
I wonder what those that say we’re tapped out and there’s no more gas have to say about this.
Energy giant Shell Canada Ltd. announced what it called a major natural gas discovery in central Alberta today.
Every time we hear that we’re out of resources, or the price goes up, we hear the end is near. Clearly, as we get more innovative and price incentives (market forces) work, it becomes obvious that the chicken littles are trying to scare us back into our homes and consume nothing.

Global cooling
After a cold summer, it’s no wonder global warming stories have all but disappeared.
It’s been a disappointing summer for global warming alarmists.

Sky is falling at 1 Yonge
We all know the Star is a Liberal mouthpiece, but I really don’t see the motivation behind scaring the citizens of Ontario into dimming their lights and walking to work.
How would you react if you were to wake up tomorrow morning to discover that hydro, gas and oil prices had all doubled or tripled overnight?
As a matter of fact, the Liberals have actually been sensible about restarting nuclear. The only problem is, no word on further privatizing of the industry, to get the meddling government from screwing it up even more.
I don’t know about you, but I am tired of SUV bashing.
The public would, no doubt, protest loudly against any fuel taxes, claiming that they would seriously damage our standard of living. But all that claim really says is that people do not want to give up their SUVs
Does the Star not understand that SUV taxpayers already pay more than their share of gas tax, because of the usurious at-the-pump toll? Does the Star not understand that a good chunk of the limitless health care dollar comes from the average smuck who gets up earlier (because the government won’t build roads) every day to go to work, burning gas and lining the government’s coffers?
Probably not. The Star wants us all living in 50 story communes, complete with energy rationing.
Sorry, I don’t believe in junk science, and I don’t believe the world is running out of power, fossil fuel or not. The markets are too smart, smarter than any government planner.

Green Stalinism - Windustry
A revealing read on the great con job that is wind power. Let’s hope Canadians delay or stall their planned wind energy investments so we can watch Britain and Germany’s disastrous foray into windmills come crashing down upon them.
What this represents is a return to the planned economy in the name of environmentalism - a kind of Green Stalinism. The consequences are the familiar Soviet ones: centralised decision-making and localised devastation.
