A new ice age could grip the world within the lifetime of present generations, Britons were warned yesterday.
“The threat of a new ice age must now stand along side nuclear war as a likely source of wholesale ‘ death and misery for mankind”, said science writer Nigel Calder, who compiled the program for the British Broad casting Corporation.

I’m coming clean with my denier disclosure.
I have never received a penny of corporate funding for anything related to climate. Donations on the blog work out to about 2% per hour of what I would be paid doing my normal consulting work. I have left literally hundreds of thousands of dollars behind for doing this blogging.
I do this because I am a lifelong environmentalist who is unhappy how climate fraudsters have hijacked the environmental movement, and because I am scientist who is unhappy how climate fraudsters have hijacked science, and because I am a US citizen who is unhappy how climate fraudsters have hijacked the government.
Before it became profitable to lie about global warming, scientists told a very different story.
Great Plains or Great Desert? The Sea of Dunes Lies in Wait
By WILLIAM K. STEVENS
Published: May 28, 1996AS devastating as the present drought in the southern Great Plains has been, scientists who study ancient climates are finding that droughts, floods and severe cold far surpassing anything in the modern era have punctuated the 10,000 years since the last ice age.
The discovery has surprised experts because the climate of this most recent period in earth history, called the Holocene, has long been considered relatively stable and serene, and its comparative tranquillity has long been thought essential to the development of civilization.
Now, paleoclimatologists are finding in case after case that the Holocene climate has been more volatile than had been believed. The disturbing implication is that these natural catastrophes could come again at any time, quite apart from any change in climate that might result from emissions of waste industrial gases that can trap heat.
“We like to think of whatever climate we’re in as normal,” said Dr. Daniel Muhs, a geologist with the United States Geological Survey in Denver, “and our natural assumption is that it will keep on that way — that’s a very tenuous assumption.”
It turns out that the climate of the last century and a half, the brief period in which people have been measuring temperature and precipitation, has indeed been relatively placid. These comparatively calm recent decades have nevertheless had their own ups and downs, like the drought that struck the southern Great Plains in the 1930’s, creating the Dust Bowl.

There can be little doubt the current staff at the New York Times would censor their own article, for telling the truth.
I finally solved my main traveling frustration. I bought a dirt cheap Lenovo touchpad with a detachable keyboard. It is like a Microsoft Surface, only one third the price. I can tether to my phone in the airport via Bluetooth, and have a Bluetooth mouse. It has 15 hours battery life, and if the person in front of me puts their seat back, that doesn’t make it impossible to type or see the screen. I used it flying back from Denver the other day. It was amazing.

So far this year, more than 50% of USHCN data is fake, and NCDC is adjusting US temperatures upwards by more than one degree. New records for both.

Monthly temperatures which are marked with an “E” are “estimated” rather than measured. More than half of the current data for 2015 is fake.
As more data comes in, these numbers will go down some, but the point is that the more data is missing, the higher the temperature. This is likely due to to loss of rural data, and infilling with UHI contaminated urban data.

Many years ago my girlfriend told me to kiss her in the stinky place. So we drove to Hamilton and made out.
“I’m sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you’re not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we’re Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration.”

NCDC says this is one of the hottest winters ever in the US, with 56% of the US below normal temperature over the past 60 days.

The White House is leading the attacks on science and academic freedom. Obama has it right at the top of his web site.
Be a part of the team that’s holding climate change deniers’ feet to the fire. Add your name.
Obama is attempting to quite literally return the world to the dark ages, using the same imagery they used to deal with geo-centricism deniers.
I continue to be amused by skeptics who have been trying to pretend this has something to do with science, and believe that being polite will protect them from the politics driving this.
