Two weeks before announcing his candidacy, Obama changed his story from “born in Kenya” to “born in Hawaii.”

Obama had been using the “born in Kenya” story since 1990.

He seems to like making up stories about other countries. Even the most left-wing hacks are starting to understand this.

Something About This Russia Story Stinks – Rolling Stone

Before the election Barack Obama was bragging about how great everything is, and saying that everything good in the world was his doing.  But now, he says the world is falling apart and controlled by evil Russians – who have even seized control of the minds of American voters.

I wonder if Putin is also causing the climate collapse which Obama’s agencies keep talking about?

The Washington Post says the Arctic is “super-hot.”

During times when cold air is dipping very far south and bringing snow to the Sahara Desert, portions of the Arctic will necessarily be warmer than “normal.” The cold air in the Arctic is necessarily being replaced by warmer air from the south, and vice versa.

These are fundamental principles of conservation of mass and energy, which scientists have understood for a very long time. It has nothing to do with carbon dioxide or “global warming.”

Cherry picking one spot in the Arctic is not science.

NOAA just released their Arctic report card, which shows how desperate they are to keep their climate scam alive.

Their claims of Arctic ice loss are completely fraudulent. Arctic sea ice extent is essentially identical to what it has been in all recent years on this date, and is growing very fast.

Huge amounts of new ice have grown over the past week – a week when experts said the Arctic was hot.

Arctic sea ice volume is also nearly identical to all recent years, and just below “normal.”

NOAA claims there was a massive decline in snow cover.  This claim is wildly fraudulent. Autumn snow cover was second highest on record this year.

NOAA claims that Greenland is losing ice.  Greenland is actually gaining ice at a record rate during autumn 2016.

Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Mass Budget: DMI

Greenland is having their coldest December since 1982. Greenland temperatures are almost 20F colder this month than 1932.

NOAA claims that Earth is warming at a record rate in 2016. The exact opposite is true. Over the last nine months, Earth has been cooling second fastest on record.

NOAA is wildly misleading the public, which seems to be the norm in the Obama White House.

On election night, The New York Times said Hillary had an 85% chance of winning. They also say they want to ban fake news.

I’ve already had the pleasure of taking down one fake climate news article from Brian Kahn today, and he has returned for round two – claiming that Antarctica is heating up and melting down, due to “carbon pollution.” He says it could raise sea level ten feet.

Only problem is, the article is fake news. NASA’s top climate expert said in 2004 that Antarctica had cooled significantly in recent decades.

Satellites show that Antarctica has been cooling for almost 40 years.

NASA says Antarctica is gaining ice.

NASA Study: Mass Gains of Antarctic Ice Sheet Greater than Losses | NASA

West Antarctica has been losing ice for centuries.  The Ross Ice Shelf retreated 30 miles before 1932.

21 Jul 1932 – A Warmer World. – Trove

During the global cooling scare 40 years ago, the National Science Foundation program manager for glaciology (Richard Cameron) said :

We’re seeing the west ice sheet on its way out.  ….  It has nothing to do with climate, just the dynamics of unstable ice.

Experts warned of 20 feet of sea level rise.

23 Jan 1977, Page 13 – Independent Press-Telegram at Newspapers.com

In summary, Antarctica is cooling and gaining ice. The loss of ice in West Antarctica has been going on for centuries, and “has nothing to do with climate.“

Brian Kahn propagates misinformation out of context, draws unsupportable conclusions from it,  and boldly passes his nonsense on to the public.

An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.

• Winston Churchill

European countries believe that throwing Israel to the wolves will save them. They have  a rather poor track record with appeasement.

On December 21, Peter Hannam and the Sydney Morning Herald printed some spectacular misinformation about the climate.

• Arctic sea ice is retreating due to record heat
• He implied that Arctic sea ice will be extent will be at a very low level when the sun returns in three months
• He said NOAA satellite records only go back to 1979
• He said Antarctic sea ice is at a record low
• He implied Australia being wet is a sign of climate change

Weird weather 2016: Year of melting ice, monster storms and Australia’s big wet

Since he wrote that article one week ago, Arctic sea ice has grown 500,000 km² and is very close to where it has been in all recent years. Arctic sea ice has grown rapidly and is 250%   of what it was three months ago. There is no absolutely way of knowing what extent will be at its peak in three months, and anyone who claims they know is a fraud.

Ocean and Ice Services | Danmarks Meteorologiske Institut

NOAA sea ice satellite records go back to 1973, not 1979. This is important because 1979 was right at the peak, and sea ice extent was nearly two million km² lower in 1974. Ignoring the years before 1979 is extremely dishonest.

1990 IPPC Report Chapter 7

As far as Hannam’s claims about Antarctica go, they are equally as wrong. Satellites showed that Antarctic sea ice was nearly gone in January, 1976 – much less than the amount of ice currently in Antarctica. (Again note the pre-1979 satellite imagery, disproving Hannam’s claim the satellite record began in 1979.)

National Geographic : 1976 Nov, Page 578

Around most of Antarctica, sea ice extent is normal or above normal. The only deficiency is in the Weddell Sea.

Antarctic sea ice has been growing for decades, and was recently at a record high. This year is an outlier, not a trend.

As far as the wet weather in southeast Australia goes, nine years ago The Sydney Morning herald said southeast Australia was in a permanent drought. They have no clue what they are talking about.

Australia has always had alternating droughts and floods.

Journalists have been blaming white men for climate change in Australia for 170 years.

11 Mar 1846 – ON THE CHANGE OF CLIMATE. – Trove

Australian journalists have been imagining climate change for hundreds of years, and using incorrect statistics for at least 145 years to justify their claims.

IMAGINARY CHANGES OF CLIMATE.

THREE consecutive years of drought, while they have stimulated the inventive resources of practical agriculturists, have had the natural effect of calling forth a plentiful crop of speculation from weather prophets and projectors, and half-instructed meteorologists, and all the philosophic tribe of Laputa in general, to whom the periodical press now affords such fatal facilities. We have often noticed that in the tabular statements of those compilers of weather records who write to the Times, useful and welcome as their communications are, every season is sure to be “extraordinary,” almost every month one of the driest or wettest, or windiest, coldest or hottest, ever known. Much observation, which ought to correct a tendency to exaggerate, seems in some minds to have rather a tendency to increase it.

10 Jan 1871 – IMAGINARY CHANGES OF CLIMATE.

I have examined several Peter Hannam articles about climate, and they are pretty close to 100% incorrect. Peter can kiss the climate scam goodbye on January 20, 2017.
