The weather was awful in the US during the 1930s, but the US makes up just 2% of the planet. How did the rest of the world fare?

CO2 was an extremely safe 310 ppm at the time.

That is what they call debt reduction in Washington.

The goal is to convince lenders that we are completely out of control, undisciplined, irresponsible, unable to manage our finances, and that we actually think other countries give a cr@p what happens to US in the future.

I have learned from Tony Duncan that it is OK for CEOs to make up any facts they want to investors, as long as it isn’t at a meeting of the board. That is just politics!

Scientists Say Earth’s Warming Could Set Off Wide Disruptions

The earth has entered a period of climatic change that is likely to cause widespread economic, social and environmental dislocation over the next century if emissions of heat-trapping gases are not reduced, according to experts advising the world’s governments.

At the most likely rate of rise, some experts say, most of the beaches on the East Coast of the United States would be gone in 25 years.

Last July, there was a mass hysteria about an ice cube which broke off the Petermann glacier in Greenland. The Manhattan sized ice cube is still missing and apparently has not yet destroyed Newfoundland – as some predicted at the time.

There were even reports that the iceberg could be seen from space! (Meaning that it is at least as large as the license plate on your car.)

The Associated Press article “Arctic scientist under investigation” that appeared in the Summit Daily News July 29 deserves some amplification. Whatever the charges against Monnett turn out to be, the danger to polar bears from warming in the Arctic has been substantiated by many peer-reviewed studies since Monnett’s original paper, most recently one published just this month showing that polar bear cub mortality increases as they now need to swim larger distances due to shrinking Arctic sea ice (and that shrinking is not in question: You can measure it from satellite photographs).

The Hudson Bay is ice free for several months every summer, yet the population there is doing just fine. No matter how far they swim, they will not find ice. The Polar Bear sea ice scam ranks right up there with the worst of them.

Forty years ago, old-timers living in the area around Hudson Bay were lucky to see a polar bear, Nirlungayuk says. “Now there are bears living as far south as James Bay.”
