Understanding The Precautionary Principle

Progressives believe that it is better to destroy the economy making pointless token gestures, than to do nothing in the face of a 0.0001 mole fraction increase of a harmless, essential trace gas. This is called “The Precautionary Principle

Let’s apply that same principle to a real event from 35 years ago. In the mid-1980s, it was discovered that millions of members of a particular group of people in the US carried a 100% deadly virus, and it was unknown if this virus was transmissible by mosquitoes or other forms of common physical contact. The Precautionary Principle would have required that [—– you fill in the blank ——]

Understanding The Divergence Problem

An amazing story of scientific fraud. Probably the biggest scientific fraud in history.

As of 1975, both the instrumental and the tree ring data showed sharp cooling from 1940 to 1970

The next graph overlays Briffa’s trees on the 1975 National Academy of Sciences graph. There was almost a perfect match, with no divergence.

NOAA radiosonde data from the 1950’s through the 1970’s also showed sharp cooling and no divergence from Briffa’s trees.

Obama has been getting things done for people all over the world, particularly in the Middle East which he has reduced to mass chaos and mayhem.

Does he actually believe that anyone still listens to his endless stream of bullshit?

Seen At The American Museum Of Unnatural Propaganda

I was at the (Un)Natural History Museum in Manhattan on Sunday, where they were working very hard to pollute children’s minds with these spectacularly misleading graphs. How much propaganda can a museum pack into one display for children?

For some reason, they forgot to include Briffa’s trees.

My Arctic Forecast

Arctic ice extent will continue to decline for a couple of days, then a cyclone near the North Pole will begin spreading the ice, and the extent curve will turn back towards the median.

The minimum this summer will likely be close to the 2006 minimum, which was the highest minimum of the past decade.

Someone should probably tell the morons at the Guardian that temperatures in England have plummeted nearly 1ºC over the past decade.

The decrease in bird populations couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the tens of thousands of birds being killed by wind farms.

Demand Civility

Lots of people around here in Maryland have “Choose Civility” bumper stickers.

I was listening to NPR a few months ago, and they had a black American woman discussing her trip to Paris. She said she was surprised that people in France got angry at her for trying to cut in line at the move theater, because she could always get away with it in the US. Her point was that white Americans are afraid to criticize black people.

That unique American madness is what causes 70% of Democrats to continue supporting a black man who is destroying their children’s future. Choosing civility is fine, and needs to be associated with expectations of civility from everyone else. Without those expectations, the country is doomed to insanity.
