Northwest Passage – Closed For Business

I shall return just once, to point out how wrong you’ve been about the sea ice, in September

The Northwest Passage has been a favorite topic of climate scamsters for years.

With ice four meters thick, no one is traversing the Northwest Passage. The ice there is the thickest in many years, as it is in the Chukchi Sea.

DMI Modelled ice thickness

My Northwest Passage trip was cancelled last year, because of too much ice.

However, the Northwest Passage was open in 1903.

New Neighbor

I haven’t seen this guy before.

I have met one of his Arizona relatives though.

Two summers ago I watched some babies growing up in Louisville.

The Day Obama Doomed The World

generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless… this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal…

Barack Obama   June 3, 2008

On June 3, 2008 Barack Obama healed the planet. But six years later he destroyed it.  By agreeing to let China increase their emissions until the world ends in 2030, he doomed future generations into never hearing him tell the story of how he healed the planet.

Climate Goals Pledged by China and the U.S. – The New York Times

97% of experts agree that these people are not completely looney.

And that they are very honest.

Climate Experts Vs. Denialists

Teenagers parroting propaganda are climate experts. You can tell by their clothing.

Congress just got climate change testimony from eloquent teenagers

Pamela Anderson is also a climate expert. Her clothing is a dead giveaway.

Pocahontas  and the New York Times believe in science, which is why they take their science advice from teenagers and actresses, but want distinguished Princeton professors censored.

Does CO2 Lead Or Lag Temperature?

People love to debate whether CO2 leads or lags temperature, based on ice core graphs. The whole discussion is a farce. You can make CO2 appear to lead or lag by how you position the two graphs on the Y-axis.

CO2 appears to lag.

CO2 lags temperature rises in ice core data

Same graph with the Y-axis shifted. Now CO2 appears to lead.

CO2 changes as a response to ocean temperature.  Warmer water (and beer) can hold less CO2, so it outgases CO2 to the atmosphere. Cold water holds more CO2, and removes it from the atmosphere. This is one of the first things geology students learn.

How The Climate Consensus Was Created

The climate consensus is created and maintained by cutting off funding to any scientist who tells the truth about climate.  Like Bill Gray at CSU or David Legates at The University of Delaware – formerly the Delaware State Climatologist.

Everyone in climate science understands this, so they keep their mouths closed.

About a decade or more ago, I was told by someone that I had been placed on a federal “Do Not Fund” list.  Undaunted, I applied for a grant from NASA.  Well, the proposal was rejected but the letter back from NASA contained only a single review sheet that was blank except for the following note written in the comments section:  “NCDC [National Climatic Data Center in Asheville NC] should be funded to do this research.”  When I contacted the program officer, Jared Entin, he indicated that he was on vacation but would investigate right away.  I have called and e-mailed; I have yet to hear back from him.

Several years later, I applied to the USDA to leverage weather radar to enhance agricultural forecasting.  My proposal was submitted electronically and was listed as “Under Review”.  In due course, I received a note from the USDA that all proposals had been either rejected or accepted and they thanked me for my submission.  Since I had not heard from them, I went on-line and checked my proposal.  It was listed as “Under Review”.  I sent an e-mail to the program officer and one of his assistants responded.  She seemed so friendly and helpful and wanted to know more about the proposal that I had submitted.  When I gave her the proposal ID number, I received a terse reply:  “You will have to take this up with the Program Officer”.

So, I did.  We played the same game again — he then stopped answering e-mails or phone calls.  Eventually, I got the University Research Office to inquire.  They said they were told by the Program Officer that “we cannot be responsible for system problems.”  Sure…right.

I have submitted a total of 5 federal grants since I was told.  All five have met the same fate.  No bad reviews…no reviews at all.  And the Program Officer cuts off all communications.

In the 1980s, John Darcy was convicted of fraud — he had made up data and nearly fifty papers were rejected.  His penalty?  He was forbidden from getting grants from the NIH for ten years.  I have been convicted of nothing…indeed, I have been charged with nothing. But I have been black-listed…and just today, the DailyKos runs a piece on how difficult the “believers” have been treated…

Sorry for the rant,

David

Forty-Five Years Ago Today

Forty-five years ago today, I was a senior in high school, deciding where to go to college. I spent a few days in a dormitory at the University of New Mexico.  It was cold, snowy and ugly – I hated every minute of it.

The next weekend I flew down to Phoenix to visit ASU, and when I got on the plane my seat was in the middle of a bunch of 6?-5? guys sporting Afros. It turned out that they had the Western Athletic Conference sports banquet in Albuquerque the night before, and I was sitting with Lionel Hollins from ASU, and Eric Money and Coniel Norman from the U of A. They were all very friendly, and Lionel asked if I wanted a ride to campus.

So I showed up on campus in a convertible with the star of the basketball team.  It was 80 degrees and there were half naked, beautiful women covering the lawn in front of Palo Verde Main. I thought I had died and gone to heaven.  My decision wasn’t difficult, needless to say.

The campus was beautiful, open and fun back then – now it is a crowded urban mess, surrounded by hideous tall glass buildings and reeking of political correctness. La Casa Vieja has shut down. Both fraternity rows have been torn down, as has Palo Verde Main – where the sororities were housed.  But ASU was an incredible place in 1974.

The good news is that The Chuckbox is still there, is exactly the same as 45 years ago – and they have Lovebirds in the tree across the street.

Canada’s Greatest Health Threat

“If Canada warmed up half a degree, people would be dropping dead in the street”

This is sad, because we will all have to move to Canada shortly after the year 1913. The rest of the world will simply be too hot.

To be fair, California did reach 134 degrees in 1913 – hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth.
