Real Climate Science

If we’re going to tackle climate change, we might want to start by addressing the world’s inability to wean itself off cows.

The livestock industry is responsible for roughly 15% of global carbon emissions, according to a new climate change report released today (pdf) by the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

The globe is warming at 0.00ºC/year over the past 17 years. Someone help me with the math, please. What is 15% of 0.00?

The Earth has changed in “unprecedented ways” since 1950, the U.N. says, and its scientists are 95 percent certain that humans are responsible.

I’ve been around almost the entire period since 1950, and I am quite certain that the IPCC is completely full of shit.

Here is a very short list of bad weather from a single year.

Seymour Hersh on Obama, NSA and the ‘pathetic’ American media | Media | theguardian.com

Seymour Hersh has got some extreme ideas on how to fix journalism – close down the news bureaus of NBC and ABC, sack 90% of editors in publishing and get back to the fundamental job of journalists which, he says, is to be an outsider.

It doesn’t take much to fire up Hersh, the investigative journalist who has been the nemesis of US presidents since the 1960s and who was once described by the Republican party as “the closest thing American journalism has to a terrorist”.

He is angry about the timidity of journalists in America, their failure to challenge the White House and be an unpopular messenger of truth.

Don’t even get him started on the New York Times which, he says, spends “so much more time carrying water for Obama than I ever thought they would” – or the death of Osama bin Laden. “Nothing’s been done about that story, it’s one big lie, not one word of it is true,” he says of the dramatic US Navy Seals raid in 2011.

Winter temperatures in the US, Europe and Asia have been plummeting since global warming ended 17 years ago.

They are back censoring all my comments again, after I posted a number of links to government data sources showing that almost everything the IPCC is claiming is incorrect.

The weather station in Fort Collins has been continuously active and in the same location on the CSU campus since 1895. It shows no trend in precipitation since 1895.

Snowfall has increased, with this year being the snowiest January-September on record.

DENVER — A study of two Rocky Mountain ski resorts says climate change will mean shorter seasons and less snow on lower slopes.

The study by two Colorado (Boulder) researchers says Aspen Mountain in Colorado and Park City in Utah will see dramatic changes even with a reduction in carbon emissions, which fuel climate change.

Boulder is also having their snowiest year on record, having received almost nine feet of snow in the first half of the year.
