In 1974, global cooling and excess Arctic ice caused extreme weather and were a national security threat.
By contrast, the intelligence and climate science communities are much more intelligent now. They now know that global warming and missing Arctic cause extreme weather and are a national security threat.
Obama says he can violate US law and detain Americans indefinitely for national security reasons.
At the same time, they are declaring global non-warming to be a national security issue.
Former Gov. Tom Ridge joined 37 prominent political figures at that U.S. Capitol Monday calling for policymakers to figure climate change into national security strategy and budget considerations. “The U.S. national security community, including leaders from the military, homeland security, and intelligence, understand that climate change is a national security threat,” Ridge said.

In Obama’s dream world, eco-terrorists who blow up pipelines will be decorated as heroes – and junk science whistleblowers will be locked up for telling the truth. Call up your Congressman – today.

In 1999, he showed that most of the US cooled from 1950-1998
But that simply wasn’t going to scare anyone, so he got rid of all US cooling in his recent maps. Note too that he eliminated all cooling in South America and Africa, and turned them into warming.
The animation below shows a closeup of his changes.
You can see his handiwork graphically below.
This is what Obama calls “overwhelming science.” Mosher also says that this is all good.
Only 20 feet of snow so far this winter.
The Navy is forecasting a lot of ice growth in the Barents Sea this week, which will bring it very close to the NSIDC median line. The map below overlays the NSIDC map (white with green/blue median line) on the Navy map (purple ice.)

The Arctic has locked into a persistent cold pattern, unlike anything I have seen for years.
Andrew Morrill, the president of the Arizona Education Association, told the Star that there was no need for the legislation. “The curriculum for teaching science is already balanced,” he said. “If there’s overwhelming evidence on one side, then within the science curriculum there’s going to be a look at that evidence.” He added, “The controversy is at the political level, not the scientific one.”
