Super Pesky! New CO2 research throws Warmist calculations into a cocked hat
Posted on November 11, 2009 - Filed Under AGW hyposterics, Agenda based science, Global Warming, News, Research/surveys, Science/pseudo-science | Leave a Comment
New data show that the balance between the airborne and the absorbed fraction of carbon dioxide has stayed approximately constant since 1850, despite emissions of carbon dioxide having risen from about 2 billion tons a year in 1850 to 35 billion tons a year now.
This suggests that terrestrial ecosystems and the oceans have a much [...]
NEW PAPER SHOWS THAT PAST CO2 LEVELS WERE NOT AS LOW AS THE WARMISTS SAY
Posted on November 9, 2009 - Filed Under AGW hyposterics, Global Warming, News, Research/surveys, Science/pseudo-science | Leave a Comment
Germany’s Dr. Ernst Beck some time ago questioned the practice of using proxy data as measures of past CO2 levels. The favoured ice-core proxies have many known problems. He pointed out that chemists have been making direct measurements of ambient CO2 way back into the 19th century and asks why that data is [...]

The high-quality Argo data has been embarrassing Warmists because it shows the ocean as cooling. So what to do? Say that the sensors showing most cooling are “bad” and discard their data. Then combine the data from the remaining sensors with data known to show too much warming and — hey [...]

This is of course an old chestnut and I have myself previously reported research on it. I found that LEFTISTS were dumber. So what are we to make of the latest research report below? Not much. Following a pattern that is all too common among psychologists, the author seems never to [...]

The explanation offered in the article excerpted below for the correlation between genes and culture is highly speculative (to put it kindly) and need not detain us. What is interesting is the demonstration that there is a genetic influence on behavioural traits that have clear political importance. There is plenty of existing research [...]

They try to glide over it below but Greenies normally identify the postwar years (1945+) as the time of a big rise in CO2. But the big jump in sea level reported below was at a time (1879 to 1915) when the industrial era was in its infancy! Correlation does not prove causation [...]

We’ve had Briffa’s “One tree” proof of global warming, now we have a “One lake” proof of global warming!
And the one lake could be as atypical as Briffa’s solitary Russian tree. But Warmists are great cherry-pickers. Amusing that the front-page lead-in to the article below was: ‘Proof’ humans cause global [...]
Washington Post Allows Debate On Anthropogenic Global Warming(?)

The Washington Post goes to their Climate Panel and asks two questions:
What Doubt is There About the Science Behind Global Warming?
What doubt is there about the science behind global warming?
Let’s see a few of the answers from the Climate Alarmists, shall we? First up, Bjorn Lomborg
Looking at the big picture, there is very little doubt. [...]
Here We Go Again: Arctic Ice To Disappear Again

Only this time, after FAIL tags for the previous predictions by different groups of the Arctic being completely ice free with a year or a few years during the summer, now…
New data released Thursday suggests that the Arctic Ocean will be “largely ice free” during summer within a decade.
Run for the hills, the sky is [...]
A skeptic got it right
Posted on October 16, 2009 - Filed Under Global Warming, News, Research/surveys, Science/pseudo-science | Leave a Comment
Warmist theories about CO2 generated NO accurate predictions of 21st century climate changes but a skeptic basing his predictions solely on long-term regularities in ocean current changes scored several bullseyes. Accurate predictions are of course the acid test of any scientific theory. An interesting communication and an interesting document from distinguished meteorologist Bill [...]

Warmist crook Keith “One tree” Briffa above
A full examination of the data chosen by the Warmists themselves shows that we live in an era of exceptional temperature stability. There has been NO global warming over the last 2,000 years — including the 20th century.

More “hidden” data: The Warmists are so crooked they couldn’t lie straight in bed

Willie Soon [wsoon@cfa.harvard.edu], who is a well-known Harvard astrophysicist, has been trying to prise out of Madame Schuckmann [Karina.Von.Schuckmann@ifremer.fr] the data underlying her recent paper about the oceans warming while the land does not.
Rather predictably, she is not co-operating. Soon has copied the correspondence to me. It’s just another example of [...]

Hey, here’s one you won’t hear about in any of the MSM, unless the lawsuit tanks
A coalition of pro-life advocates including two scientists, two families, an adoption agency and the Christian Medical Association have banded together to file a lawsuit against the Obama administration in an effort to stop the expected taxpayer funding of embryonic [...]

At first blush, this may seem a little shocking, but, considering the lies, exaggerations, and attempts to steal money from Peter to pay Paul destroy economies, not so much
Psychologists in Canada have revealed new research suggesting that people who become eco-conscious “green consumers” are “more likely to steal and lie” than others.
The new study comes [...]

There are three key issues facing President Obama today. All of these issues have been around for a while yet each issue is being handled in opposition with popular belief. The issues facing the Obama Administration (in no particular order) are the threat of Iranian nuclear weapons, the ongoing war in Afghanistan, and healthcare.
Despite dozens [...]
