Real Climate Science

If you basically put down a red line and say don’t use chemical weapons, and it’s been enforced in the Western community, around the world – international community for decades – don’t use chemical weapons. We didn’t use them in World War II, Hitler didn’t use them, we don’t use chemical weapons,

Chris Matthews: Hitler never used chemical weapons

And then there was the thousands of tons of napalm which the US dropped on Japan and Germany – which killed hundreds of thousands of civilians.

I guess napalm isn’t a chemical.

Democrats didn’t believe that Saddam had WMD’s, but they were willing to let half a million children die in Iraq in order to get Saddam to give up the chemical weapons (which they didn’t believe he had.)

Looks like Obama is going to have to order retaliation against both himself and Bill Clinton, if he wants to be morally consistent.

US considers ‘limited act’ in Syria

I actually don’t remember the citizens of the US being consulted by Dear Leader. A lot us are considering “impeachment” however.

It turns out that climate is cyclical, not linear, and does not correlate with CO2.

Our ice router Victor has been very clear in what lies ahead. He writes, “Just to give you the danger of ice situation at the eastern Arctic, Eef Willems of “Tooluka” (NED) pulled out of the game and returning to Greenland. At many Eastern places of NWP locals have not seen this type ice conditions. Residents of Resolute say 20 years have not seen anything like. Its, ice, ice and more ice. Larsen, Peel, Bellot, Regent and Barrow Strait are all choked. That is the only route to East. Already West Lancaster received -2C temperature expecting -7C on Tuesday with the snow.”

Richard Weber, my teammate to the South Pole in 2009 and without doubt the most accomplished polar skier alive today, is owner and operator of Arctic Watch on Cunningham Inlet at the northern end of Somerset Island. Arctic Watch faces out onto our proposed eastern route. Richard dropped me a note the other day advising: “This has been the coldest season with the most ice since we started Arctic Watch in 2000. Almost no whales. The NWPassage is still blocked with ice. Some of the bays still have not melted!”

Darkness On The Edge Of Town

If I could take one moment into my hands
Mister I ain’t a boy, no I’m a man
And I believe in a promised land

There’s a dark cloud rising from the desert floor
I packed my bags and I’m heading straight into the storm
Gonna be a twister to blow everything down
That ain’t got the faith to stand it’s ground

Blow away the dreams that tear you apart
Blow away the dreams that break your heart
Blow away the lies that leave you nothing
But lost and brokenhearted

More superstitious than the morons in the witch burning scene in The Holy Grail, eco-morons are blaming fires on people for thinking incorrect thoughts.

Rep. Rohrabacher, you should immediately apologize to all Californians for dismissing the growing threat of wildfires in our state, and calling climate change “a total fraud.” If you are unwilling to accept the vast scientific consensus on climate change you should immediately resign your position on the House Science Committee.

Fire is an essential part of the forest eco-system. The National Park Service says that Giant Sequoia forest burns naturally every 5-15 years. Fire suppression policy has made the fires less frequent and larger.

Why is this important?  Fires have been burning nonstop in California since May 1st. Peak wildfire season hasn’t even started yet, but already our state is enduring its driest year on record, and the seventh-largest fire in California history continues burning out of control in Yosemite National Park.

Seventh largest? That is indeed unprecedented, except for the six larger ones in the past.

Who are you who are so wise in the ways of science?
