The Risky Business of Extreme Heat Hysteria

The Risky Business Project led by Michael Bloomberg, Henry Paulson, and Tom Steyer recently released its report on “The Economic Risks of Climate Change in the United States.” The project’s co-chairs have all been out in the media promoting the project’s report, and—like sheep—the mainstream media have generally been uncritical of the report’s claims. A core concern repeated throughout the Risky Business report is the predicted massive increase in what are termed “extremely hot days” (defined as days with a temperature exceeding 95°F) throughout the United States over the coming century due to anthropogenic climate change, and the resulting negative impacts of these increasingly numerous “extremely hot days” on the American economy. Here are selections from the Risky Business report on the topic of extremely hot days: “By the end of the century, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho could well have more days above 95°F each year than there are currently in Texas ... The Southeast

State Rep. Lenar Whitney, who is running for Congress in Louisiana, has released a new video proclaiming man-made global warming as "the biggest deception in the history of mankind, GLOBAL WARMING IS A HOAX. LENAR WHITNEY ANNOUNCES RUN FOR CONGRESS NEW ORLEANS - At the Republican Leadership Conference on Saturday, Lenar Whitney announced her candidacy for congress in Louisiana’s sixth congressional district. Whitney is currently a State Representative and also the Republican National Committee Woman from Louisiana. In her speech, Whitney declared, “I believe Republicans can make history, beginning in 2014. We have a chance to start a movement and that’s a movement I feel called to be a part of. That’s why today I am announcing my candidacy for United States Congress here in Louisiana.” Whitney will join a growing field of Republicans seeking the seat. However, she will join State Senator Dan Claitor as the only other elected official seeking the office. “Several peopl

The old adage, "it's not the heat, it's the humidity," will come into play more often and in more places because of climate change, with life-altering results in southern U.S. cities from Miami to Atlanta to Washington and even northern ones such as New York, Chicago and Seattle. "As temperatures rise, toward the end of the century, less than an hour of activity outdoors in the shade could cause a moderately fit individual to suffer heat stroke," said climatologist Robert Kopp of Rutgers University, lead scientific author of the report. "That's something that doesn't exist anywhere in the world today." That result emerges from the heat-and-humidity analysis in "Risky Business," the report on the economic consequences of climate change released on Tuesday. The analysis goes beyond other studies, which have focused on rising temperatures, to incorporate growing medical understanding of the physiological effects of heat and humi
The scandal of fiddled global warming data The US has actually been cooling since the Thirties, the hottest decade on record

When future generations try to understand how the world got carried away around the end of the 20th century by the panic over global warming, few things will amaze them more than the part played in stoking up the scare by the fiddling of official temperature data. There was already much evidence of this seven years ago, when I was writing my history of the scare, The Real Global Warming Disaster. But now another damning example has been uncovered by Steven Goddard’s US blog Real Science , showing how shamelessly manipulated has been one of the world’s most influential climate records, the graph of US surface temperature records published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Goddard shows how, in recent years, NOAA’s US Historical Climatology Network (USHCN) has been “adjusting” its record by replacing real temperatures with data “fabricated” by computer models. The effect of this has been to downgrade earlier temperatures and to exaggera
Al Gore Climate Cultists, Has Al Gore Global Warming Crusade Reached Its Waterloo?

The climate change crusaders, who have been at it for a quarter-century, appear to be going clinically mad. Start with the rhetorical monotony and worship of authority (“97 percent of all scientists agree!”), add the Salem witch trial-style intimidation and persecution of dissenters, and the categorical demand that debate about science or policy is over because the matter is settled , and you have the profile of a cult-like sectarianism that has descended into paranoia and reflexive bullying. Never mind the scattered and not fully suppressed findings of climate scientists that the narrative of catastrophic global warming is overstated, like nearly every previous predicted environmental apocalypse. It matters not. The recent crescendo of scary government climate reports and dutiful media alarm has paved the way for the Obama administration to throw its weight around in ways that would make Woodrow Wilson blush Making sense of this tiresome issue requires stepping back for th
Al Gore compares climate change to the civil rights movement at Princeton

i must have missed something-when did al sell his jet and 2 of his 3 mansions-and i'm sure he donated his speaking fee,you know income inequality and all Al Gore compared the fight against climate change to the civil rights movement, and called on Princeton graduates to help to do their part at the university’s annual Class Day. Gore said that American society must agree that there is a problem before it can move to make a change. He recalled a childhood memory in the South about a friend who made a racist remark; his other friends were quick to tell the student to “shut up,” and informed him that such thinking was no longer acceptable. “They are merchants of doubt who present falsehoods in an effort to confuse people." Tweet This In the same way, Gore suggested progress can be made for climate change through changing the discussion. “After the conversation was changed, the laws were changed,” said Gore. Similarly, Gore remembered another

Read, forward to all on your lists, and be VERY AFRAID. Anti-human earth-worshippers have co-opted our environmental agencies, and are forcing new animal and habitat protection laws and regulations upon every man, woman, and child in California and America. These laws carry felony status criminality and severe penalties including imprisonment. The latest, and most threatening to humans, is the re-introduction and protection of wolves in California. They are elevated above human status and, if you shoot one, you will be arrested and charged, and remanded for trial to determine if your actions were, in fact, justifiable self-defense (no, you cannot kill one because it is attacking your livestock or pets). This isn’t about “balancing” the ecosystem, or protecting wildlife, as wolves are responsible for massive decimation of mammal populations including deer, elk, moose, mountain goats, and entire herds of farm animals. This is about driving humans out of rural and wilderness areas.
