Three years ago, NASA’s #1 moron said that Canada was going to destroy the planet
GLOBAL warming isn’t a prediction. It is happening. That is why I was so troubled to read a recent interview with President Obama in Rolling Stone in which he said that Canada would exploit the oil in its vast tar sands reserves “regardless of what we do.”
If Canada proceeds, and we do nothing, it will be game over for the climate.
That is the long-term outlook. But near-term, things will be bad enough. Over the next several decades, the Western United States and the semi-arid region from North Dakota to Texas will develop semi-permanent drought
Extremely hot summers have increased noticeably. We can say with high confidence that the recent heat waves in Texas and Russia, and the one in Europe in 2003, which killed tens of thousands, were not natural events — they were caused by human-induced climate change.
Let’s examine his claims. The region from Texas to North Dakota is much wetter than normal.
The wheat and corn belts are getting wetter over time, and droughts are becoming less common and less severe.
The 2011 heatwave in Texas was a one shot anomaly. Heatwaves have been on the decline in Texas since the 1920s.
There has been no change in the frequency of heatwaves in Europe
Hansen has absolutely no clue what he is talking about, yet works tirelessly to damage the lives of billions of people around the world.
permanent [pur-muh-nuh nt] adjective
1. existing perpetually; everlasting, especially without significant change.
There are no degrees of permanency, either something is permanent, or it is not. So yes, Homer is a moron.
Not a moron, but a tool of the US National Academy of Sciences after that group betrayed the American public to help Stalin take control of the world.
I posted the details on ResearchGate so members of the US NAS can publicly respond to charges they betrayed the American public:

These Merchants of Doom are worse than morons.
If they were actually morons–that is intellectually disabled, stupid, unable of rational thought–they would be harmless.
But they are not stupid. They are quite intelligent.
What’s worse than having morons in charge of national policy? Much worse is committed Politically Correct Progressives–who are, by definition, dedicated to destruction of American exceptionalism and capitalism–running national policies.
PC-Progs’ strategy and tactics are built on a foundation of fundamental dishonesty. They lie early, lie often, lie always. Mixing truth with lies, appealing to emotional triggers, making their Chicken Little followers believe they are better than us mouth-breathing Normals, is their approach.
Don’t misunderestimate the “morons.” They are not stupid. They are slavishly following a tremendously successful playbook.
Liars? Cheats? Thieves? Con-men? Yes, yes, yes, and yes.
Morons? No.
Kent take a quick peak at what I just wrote earlier this morning starting HERE and see what you think.
(I am making good use of your book.)
Gail,
Will do. Glad you’re back providing insight and research to these issues.
Without understanding the fundamental basis of the PC-Progs’ influence op, we just flounder around swatting at shadows.
Willing Accomplices provides the theoretical and practical basis to understand our opponents.
Did you see today’s Washington Post? They are fretting over the PC-Prog federal government’s use of Muenzenberg’s covert influence tactics and strategy!
https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2015/09/24/the-new-propaganda-how-the-american-government-is-trying-to-control-what-you-think/
Breath-taking!
A least they took a peak under the rug. But as the commenter Libertadius said ” the authors ignored the largest and most insidious government propaganda arm, “Public” education, delivering pro-socialist, pro-government propaganda for over a century.”
Gail: “A least they took a peak under the rug. But as the commenter Libertadius said ” the authors ignored the largest and most insidious government propaganda arm, “Public” education, delivering pro-socialist, pro-government propaganda for over a century.”
Well, he’s on the right track, timing-wise and in the domain of influence–education.
He just misses the terminology, and payload.
The technique used to place the anti-Normal-America payload in the education/academia system was NOT propaganda–it was covert influence.
And the payload they inserted was NOT “pro-socialist, pro-government” propaganda.
It was ANTI. Anti-Normal-America. The message, while faintly pro-collectivist, is purely anti-Normal. This is it, in two sentences:
‘America is a racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophiobic, imperialist, capitalist hell-hole. And it must be changed.’
Study that payload. It is the core of the PC-Prog belief system, including the Catastrophic Global Warmers. Their entire scam is based on the “…capitalist hell-hole…” piece of the payload.
That payload is what the PC-Progs inserted into our education/academia. Not “propaganda.” Subtle, but important difference.

History
A classic example, appropriate for this time of year:
So we tried socialism in the 1800s and it failed miserably.
Did we learn? NO!
Instead we (and I do mean WE since Americans funded the Bolsheviks) set-up Communist states that killed 262,000,000 people in the 20th Century. DEMOCIDE DEATH BY GOVERNMENT By R.J. Rummel
Did we learn? NO!
Al Gore’s acoylte, Christiana Figueres, the UN executive secretary of the Framework Convention on Climate Change said:
“This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution,… democracy is a poor political system for fighting global warming. Communist China, is the best model.”

A really great model you have there Christiana!

“We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” — William Casey, CIA Director, (first Reagan staff meeting 1981)
Barbara Honegger is the source of that quote.
http://www.quora.com/Did-William-Casey-CIA-Director-really-say-Well-know-our-disinformation-program-is-complete-when-everything-the-American-public-believes-is-false
Any comments on that info from ‘Barbara Honegger, Kent? Or is it just more Disinfo.
Gail,
“Any comments on that info from ‘Barbara Honegger, Kent? Or is it just more Disinfo.”
I’m sure the lady who sat in the meeting thought she heard that, and thought she was faithfully recording what was said. But I’m not too sure. I’ve never heard of her. Vetting her background, here’s the first info I found: “Perhaps the oddest case in the small but fertile world of government functionary-9/11 Truth crossover is that of Barbara Honegger, a dedicated but elusive and little seen 9/11 warrior with murky roots (apparently military and intelligence). She was allegedly into weird parapsychic stuff, channeling voices of supercomputers from the future and whatnot,”
So, let’s give her the benefit of the doubt, and assume she really thought she heard what she reported Casey to say–to summarize, that his job was to misinform the American people. Best case scenario is that she was a newbie to both intel and the policy world, and was likely confused and overwhelmed, and totally lacked context for what she was hearing.
I spent years in the belly of the beast, and worked on all the types of relevant programs. One of the most stringently enforced, inspected, and obsessed over issues is covered in this section of the relevant law:
“(f) Prohibition on covert actions intended to influence United States political processes, etc.
No covert action may be conducted which is intended to influence United States political processes, public opinion, policies, or media.”
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/50/3093
American covert action, by law, CANNOT spill over to American audiences. This applies to ops run by the intel community, under Presidential findings.
This prohibition was zealously followed and enforced, since WW2, up to Obama’s handlers’ administration. So, the lady’s quote is ridiculous on its face. IF Casey planned to use intel assets against the US public, he WOULD NOT have announced it in a semi-public forum. Or likely never at all. My assessment is that she either naively misunderstood what she heard. Or, she purposely twisted the statement to meet her needs. It’s likely a combination of the two, given her background.
See yesterday’s Washington Post for the mushrooming influence ops run by NON-INTEL branches of the USG, under Obama’s handlers. They call them “public outreach, information, etc.” but these are nearly identical to the Muenzenberg covert influence ops. These are run, NOT by intel, but by Labor, Interior, EPA, State, Pentagon, and many other Executive Branch offices.
These offices are now another of the transmission belts of American culture controlled by PC-Progs to amplify the anti-Normal message.
Thank you very much Kent for the quick response. It did indeed smell a bit fishy. The CIA director a blabber mouth?!?
…………
I have been looking at something else along the same lines and ran across something interesting.
Sea Level rise is one of the sticks used to beat the public over the head. A new (1998) paper Near-field hydro-isostasy: the implementation of a revised sea-level equation came out and NASA jumped on it: Glacial Isostatic Adjustment: A Survey of Recent Studies
I am still trying to make heads or tails of the Bafflegab, but it looks like they found a new way to adjust sea level rise ” the existing sea-level equation incorrectly predicts the change in sea level (and thus the ocean load) in ice-covered, subgeoidal geographic regions during periods of deglaciation…”
What was interesting was when I tried to follow up on a pointer to:
(wwwDOT)homepage.montana.edu/~geol445/hyperglac/isostasy1/%20%5C%5C%20Rates returns
“Sorry….homepage.montana.edu 7Egeol445 hyperglac isostasy1 20 5C 5C 20Rates’ does not exist or is not available.”
So I poked around and found Isostasy and Postglacial Rebound “This resource is no longer officially part of our collection ….” refering to cleanet in the URL.
So I continued poking around and I found it had been removed by the CLEAN project
CONTINUED (too many links)
(I still managed to find it as https://web.archive.org/web/20051231142233/http://www.homepage.montana.edu/~geol445/hyperglac/isostasy1/ )
So who the heck is this TERC that is removing web pages? — TERC is based in Cambridge, MA, Cambridge is so far to the left that a communist party member (a friend)had to register as a republican so the polls could open!
And following up on CLEAN (“Climate Literacy and Energy Awareness Network “)
what do I find? NOAA!

No wonder there is a ‘97% consensus’ NOTHING ELSE is ALLOWED! I think I am going to be sick.
Great research, Gail.
I keep telling you: You really should start a blog to capture all of your work.
It would be very valuable to organize these things in one place, issue by issue.
While it’s useful here to a small group, putting it on the searchable internet will be much more useful. You could then just provide links to your blog in your comments on Tony’s blog.
The TERC issue is clearly part of the “climate communications” push that became the scamsters’ main effort a couple years back. One of the first results was Mann’s book on his battles to “communicate” his fraudulent “science.”
It is nothing but 100% information warfare–covert, overt, influence messaging coordinated globally.

Kent,
I really wish I had the time and the skills. I can not type and am ‘computer challenged. Right now I should be out prepping fields and sowing winter rye but it has been raining. We barely keep our business website usable at this point.
Kent that goes back to what I wrote about Judith Curry and her business partner Peter Webster:

Webster is a member of the Aspen Global Change Institute and Climate Communication is a project of the Aspen Global Change Institute.
Judith Curry is no Skeptic she is a Trojan Horse introduced to the skeptic community by WUWT.
(I do keep track of my better comments)
Hansen…is a product of our educational system
…that teaches catastrophism
Latitude, It is a heck of a lot worse than that.
Hansen…is a product of our educational system that is infested with Progressives intent on the destruction of the USA.
Kids are taught to be ashamed of the USA, to hate capitalism, to hate Christians, to hate whites, (or feel guilty) to not think, to be dependent on the state….

Actually I do not think they are morons I just think they are totally corrupt and headed towards evil.
With 30,000 a year dying in the UK alone due to their out right lies you would think they might do a bit of soul searching but as Jan P Perlwitz shows they have ZERO remorse.
Perlwitz is the NASA GISS scientist who left a public comment warning skeptics he will “shoot you dead.”
Perlwitz is employed as a modeler at NASA GISS.
The death toll in just two weeks in February this year:
UK — According to the Office for National Statistics (ONS) some 28,800 people died in the fortnight ending January 23… The death toll among the elderly was 18,154 in the same period last year.
The word monster comes to mind.

Your comment is completely inappropriate for this thread.
Gator, unfortunately you could write the same comment after almost every one of Omanuel’s postings!
I’m flattered. Now we are truley equal with America in the ability to destroy the Earth.
You Canucks just need to keep exploring, keep drilling, keep pumping, keep fracking, etc. Obama and the Pope can go pound oil sand!
Now that Arctic warming has screwed up the jet stream get prepared for more frequent heat-waves. It’s the new normal.
Please define “normal” as it pertains to climate and weather.
The new “Normal” is a loopy jet stream, the default weather pattern of glaciation. In the 1960/70s we called it the “Polar Express”
Mar. 1, 2014 At midnight, Green Bay made it 49 days with subzero temperatures, the most in a winter. The previous record, 48 days, was set in 1976-77.

The satellite data says Arctic has cooled by 0.5ºC since 2010.
It also cooled at about the same rate between 2005 and 2010, with only the jump from the non-CO2 forced 2010 keeping the current temperature fractionally above the long term average.
The solar forcing that caused the slight warming trend from the cold late 1970’s is now no longer there. The AMO has just about turned
The cooling phase of the NATURAL cycle has begun.
Actually, UAH NoPol anomaly for August was negative, so its not above the long term average.
Also, last year and the year before were the shortest periods above 0ºC in the whole of the DMI temperature data. Current temps are almost exactly on the long term average

But I’m sure that cfool knows all this.. right 😉
And is just yapping like the mental Chihuahua he is.
This blogger has been demonstrating repeatedly that heat waves have gotten less frequent, not more frequent. I have independently reviewed that same data over much of my life, even long before global warming became politicized. Mr. Goddard is correct with his facts. Why do you keep misleading people by denying the obvious facts?

Why the hell does it do that???????? The current image is a camera lens blocked by snow NOT the one that came up.
Yep, been happening a lot, especially with graphs.
The amount of fossil fuel released from the tar sands would be small compared to the increases in coal fired power stations in Asia and other parts of the world.
Indonesia has overtaken Australia in coal production.
China is planning a whole heap of coal gasification plants,
Japan is building 43 coal fired power stations to replace its nuclear one.
There is a LOT of fossil fuel gradually coming on-line around the world, certainly enough to ENSURE that CO2 emission levels keep growing for the foreseeable future. 🙂
The planet LOVES CO2 !!!!

From Richard on JoNova, this definition
Definition of climate ultra-denier:
(1) Does not see any proof that CO2 caused any of the warming since 1850, and does not care,
(2) Celebrates the slight warming since 1850, and wants more warming,
(3) Celebrates the increased CO2 since 1850, and wants more CO2 (speaking on behalf of green plants),
(4) Considers the climate change since 1850 to be within normal natural variations,
(5) Believes climate models are a waste of taxpayer money, with no predictive ability,
(6) Believes most “climate scientists” should be on the unemployment line, and
(7) Believes the “coming climate change catastrophe” is primarily a leftist scam (boogeyman) to scare people, and allow central governments, and the UN, to seize more power over ordinary citizens.
(8) (Optional) If put in charge of the world, would throw all climate modellers in jail for disturbing the peace (the climate has been improving since 1850, for humans and green plants, yet we are not allowed to celebrate that fact because for over 40 years smarmy leftists have been (falsely) bellowing that climate change will end life on Earth as we know it).
note.. That last one, I’d add fraud, and that they should all be disbarred from ever getting anywhere near climate records again.
I’d have to disagree with #5. The climate models so far haven’t been a total loss. As Thomas Edison would have said, we now know 1000 ways not to model climate.
