Geoengineering: The real climate change threat
by James Corbett

February 13, 2013
For decades now, we have been told to be afraid of the long-term effects
of manmade carbon dioxide on our climate. Seemingly every day some new
storm, drought, warm spell or cold snap is featured on the news, with
government-funded scientists warning us that this is a sign of things to
come unless the world reduces its CO2 production.
The problem, of course, is that this is a third-rate scientific hoax
propagated on the strength of the public’s ignorance of the underlying
science, or lack thereof. The models and predictions used to scare the
public in
The Emerson v Bolt argument on air… does Emerson not know statistics?
Is this “national debate”? There’s been a big “todo” over a tweet
made by Trade Minister Craig Emerson saying that Andrew Bolt was wrong
to claim the world hadn’t warmed for 16 years. (Which means Emerson
disagrees with the UK Met boys, the latest IPCC draft report and all the
major data.) Werner Brozek at WUWT went through the largest global
temperature data sets: For RSS the warming is not significant for over
23 years. For UAH, the warming is not significant for over 19 years. For

“Reckless investment another disaster for Africa” by Nkwazi Mhango
This week I was musing about two historical colonial and

Both leaders were toppled and killed by CIA.
