It Is Just Weather Mr. Gore

Whenever there is a huge snowstorm (and we had quite a few of those this year) the sane part of the population (those who do not believe in man-made global warming) make comments about global warming and how it must not be real. When we discuss these things and other events we are quickly told by the global warming alarmists that these events are just weather and there is a difference between weather and climate.

The Holy Father of global warming did the exact same thing at a global warming conference when he said that recent weather events were consistent with global warming.

But Gore had a specific example in mind. He explained this recent soaking in the Northeastern United States was “consistent” with what global warming alarmists were projecting. Business and Media Institute

We had several blizzards this year and this is not consistent with what the alarmists have said. Some of them lamented about winters without snow blah blah.

The snow runs contrary to what they have told us even as they claim that the snow is a sign of global warming.

But are the alarmists who routinely mock people as ignorant for not knowing the difference between climate and weather going to call out Gore for his lack of understanding of the issue?

If the snowstorms are not evidence that global warming is not a problem because they are weather events then all the soaking rains we had are not evidence because they too are weather events.

Would one of you self righteous alarmists contact Mr. Gore and inform him of his egregious error?

Junk Science And The Himalayan Glacier

Those global warming alarmists will do anything to push their hoax.

A WARNING that climate change will melt most of the Himalayan glaciers by 2035 is likely to be retracted after a series of scientific blunders by the United Nations body that issued it.

Two years ago the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a benchmark report that was claimed to incorporate the latest and most detailed research into the impact of global warming. A central claim was the world’s glaciers were melting so fast that those in the Himalayas could vanish by 2035.

In the past few days the scientists behind the warning have admitted that it was based on a news story in the New Scientist, a popular science journal, published eight years before the IPCC’s 2007 report.

It has also emerged that the New Scientist report was itself based on a short telephone interview with Syed Hasnain, a little-known Indian scientist then based at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi.

Hasnain has since admitted that the claim was “speculation” and was not supported by any formal research. If confirmed it would be one of the most serious failures yet seen in climate research. The IPCC was set up precisely to ensure that world leaders had the best possible scientific advice on climate change. [Read the rest at The Times UK]

Best possible advice? It looks like that is not exactly what they are getting. Instead they have hidden declines, manipulated data and warnings based on phone interviews with little known scientists.

The hits just keep on coming.

Danny Glover Is A Whack Job

Actor Danny Glover has stated that the reason there was an earthquake in Haiti is because world leaders failed to act in Copenhagen. I assume he is not talking about divine intervention in this issue. It seems to me as if he is saying that if only those world leaders had come up with a plan it would have changed the earth so fast (assuming it could actually change the world at all) that this earthquake would not have happened.

This view is slightly different from that of Pat Robertson who claimed it was divine intervention as punishment for Haiti making a deal with the devil. Not really sure which of these two has lost touch the most.

While it is certainly possible that Haiti was punished for making a deal with the devil I don’t know how Pat would be privy to the details of such a deal to know it took place.

If we believe that man made global warming is real and causes earthquakes then we would have to really have a leap of faith to also believe that an agreement a month ago could have averted disaster.

Maybe we need to focus on helping the people in Haiti and stop pointing fingers. I mean, who do these people think they are, members of the Obama administration?

Besides, after America voted Obama in I don’t want to think about punishment for dealing with the devil.
