Progress With Climate Models

James Hansen’s first climate model was the most accurate. It showed CO2 as not a problem.

U.S. Scientist Sees New Ice Age Coming

Over time Hansen’s models got stupider and stupider, and eventually lead to the Hayhoe Hockey Stick

20th Century Engineers Vs 21st Century Adherents To The Dark Ages

The 1900 Galveston Hurricane killed 10,000 people. The city responded with a massive engineering project that raised the entire island by as much as 11 feet. This saved them from another catastrophe during the 1915 category 4 hurricane.

Scamming For Climate Money

Tuvalu was one the first countries to realize they could extort climate money from stupid western countries.

The rest of the world should act immediately and together to cut down on its use of greenhouse gases,” says Paani Laupepa, an assistant secretary in Tuvalu’s Department of Foreign Affairs, headquartered on the second floor of a private home in Funafuti.

The United States, with a small percentage of the world’s people, uses 25 percent of the world’s resources,” Laupepa goes on. “You Americans have a good lifestyle, all the conveniences, three or four cars per family. You need to appreciate the impact that has on our lives here.

Worried About Sea level Rise

Last year, climate expert Leonardo DiCaprio spoke to the UN and told them that melting glaciers threatened to drown the planet.

He is so worried about sea level rise, that he is building $15 million homes at sea level in Belize.

Pretending to be concerned about the climate keeps the heat off of people with extravagant lifestyles, like Al Gore, Leo DiCaprio, Prince Charles, Richard Branson, Barack Obama, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Barbara Streisand, etc.

The Obama Balanced Budget

In 2008 Obama complained about Bush increasing the debt by $3 trillion, and promised to restore fiscal discipline.

http://moveleft.org/obamas_promises/www-barackobama-com_issues_fiscal.pdf

Instead, he tripled the deficit and has accumulated three times as much debt in six years as Bush did in eight. Obama’s smallest deficit is larger than Bush’ largest.

ScreenHunter_8291 Apr. 04 10.05

But it is worse than it seems. Obama’s original claim was also a lie – according to the White House Budget Office, Bush increased the debt by $2 trillion, not $3 trillion. Obama has increased it by $6 trillion so far.

Rewriting Antarctica’s Past

Ten years ago, Gavin reported that Antarctica was cooling had “cooled significantly.”

While most of the Earth warmed rapidly during recent decades, surface temperatures decreased significantly over most of Antarctica.

That didn’t fit the needs of the White House, so Eric Steig simply rewrote Antarctica’s history in 2009, and turned “significant cooling” into “warming.

White Is The New Green

Twenty years ago, climate experts reported that Antarctica was greening and that the world’s climate was “at serious risk”

ScreenHunter_8283 Apr. 04 09.06

Flowers and grasses are spreading rapidly in Antarctica, and British scientists say that global warming is responsible.

Researchers at the British Antarctic Survey — (the body which discovered the ozone hole over the continent a decade ago — will shortly report on the “greening of Antarctica“, as the ice recedes, summers lengthen, and the climate warms up.

A paper to be published later this year will say that a flowering grass is now 25 times more common than it was 30 years ago. Other research has found that new species are appearing in the area as long-frozen seeds are freed from the melting ice.

Last week, the official Intergovernmental Panel on Climatic Change met in Maastricht, the Netherlands, to complete a report warning that the world’s climate is still “at serious risk”.
