Hillary, Jed Bush, Al Gore And Pope Francis’s Global-Warming is a Hoax and JunkScience

Nobel Peace Prize winner Al Gore is busily training an army of organizers to go out and spread his environmental gospel ahead of key climate talks in Paris later this year. “At each session, he delivers an updated version of his Academy Award-winning documentary “An Inconvenient Truth,” using the latest news footage and startling videos to show how the very fossil fuels that have powered so much innovation are leading to the demise of society. “Air so hot it melts airport runways, floodwaters that crumble roads and bridges, methane that blows terrifying holes in Siberia and air pollution so thick it has shortened life expectancy in China by several years featured prominently during his three-hour presentation in Miami this week. http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/al-gore-climate-change-organizers/2015/09/29/id/693956/?ns_mail_uid=53823643&ns_mail_job=1637809_09302015&s=al&dkt_nbr=wbpvha74

Yesterday, I learned that Youngstown State University had made the following  claim  about hokey stick inventor Michael Mann. Despite Mann’s repeated claims,  he has never won a Nobel prize . I alerted Youngstown State’s Dr. Ray Beiersdorfer about the error and he promptly e-mailed back: So Mann is back to just being part of the IPCC — as was, say, skeptic John Christy. Although Christy never falsely claimed to be a Nobel prize winner. JunkScience has also taken away Nobel prizes awarded to Mann by  UCLA , Angelo State University , and  Economia magazine .

  There are  two stories floating around about the state of the earth’s atmosphere . Both are believed true by government-funded scientists and the environmentally minded. The situation is curious because the stories don’t mesh. Yet, as I said, both are believed. Worse, neither is true. Story number one is that this year will be the hottest ever. And number two is that the reason it is  not  hot is because “natural variation” has masked or stalled man-caused global warming. Which is it? Either it’s hotter than ever or it isn’t. If it is, then (it is implied) man-caused global warming has not “paused.” If it isn’t, if man-caused global warming has “paused,” then it is not growing hotter. There are two things to keep straight: (1) why these divergent contentions are believed, and (2) why they are incompatible and individually false. The first point is easy. Climatology has become a branch of politics. And in politics, particularly in our rambunctious...

Rolling Stone rolls out an exclusive interview with President Obama, featuring contributing editor Jeff Goodell who delicately asks the all-important question about the issue of climate change: “Doesn’t it scare the shit out of you sometimes?” he asks. Not to Obama. “Part of my job is to read stuff that terrifies me all the time,” he replied. “The whole point of this trip — is to sound the alarm.” At another point in the interview, conducted during the president’s recent trip to Alaska, Obama complains that American democracy isn’t reacting quickly enough to the issue of climate change. “Our Democratic process is painfully slow. Historically politics catch up when the public cares deeply. The American people have to feel the same urgency that I do,” he said. When asked why he doesn’t do more to raise the alarm to Americans, Obama replied. “I do what I can do, and as much as I can do. What I don’t want to do is get paralyzed by the magnitude of the thing.” http://...

"We see this trend in a lot of extreme weather," said lead study author Victor Gensini, a severe storms climatologist at the College of DuPage in Illinois. "Changes in the jet stream are causing the jet to break down and get stuck in these blocking patterns," Gensini said. "It just so happens it could be in a favorable pattern for tornadoes or a really bad pattern [for tornadoes] We are now well past the peak of the tornado season in the US, so it is good to see that this year so far tornado numbers have been running well below average. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/wcm/#data This is now the fourth year in a row which has been below average. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/wcm/torngraph-big.png Looking at the longer term data back to 1954, adjusted for the fact that many more tornadoes are reported these days because of technology etc, this year is again shown to be amongst the quieter years. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/wcm/adj.html There h...

Even though it is not true, alarmist sites everywhere continue citing “increased storm activity” as evidence of man-made climate change. Yet, when we look at the numbers, we see that nothing could be further from the truth. At Twitter earlier today  Philip Klotzbach tweeted , “ Seasonal ACE only 50% of normal thru 9/9 .” Indeed looking at weather site  www.wunderground.com  we see that global cyclone activity measured by the “Accumulated Cyclone Energy” (ACE) index over the past four years is even at a 45-year low! Global Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) since 1970. Chart shows that storm activity worldwide over the past 4 years is at a 45-year low and that the trend has been in steep decline since 1990.

[ Note:  NOAA explains:   “The only difference between a hurricane, a cyclone, and a typhoon is the location where the storm occurs. Hurricanes, cyclones, and typhoons are all the same weather phenomenon...

Obama’s hike up the rapidly melting Exit Glacier today has run into some unfortunate buzzkill: reality. The hike is supposed to be the high point of this week’s trip to Alaska, undertaken for the purpose of dramatizing global warming. The media pitch is that Exit Glacier has been rapidly retreating for decades because of global warming. Sadly for the President’s play acting, though, the National Park Service  previously  reported  that Exit Glacier has been exiting since at least the early 1800s — before the Industrial Revolution even got underway. This isn’t the only intrusion of reality into the President’s staged climate drama. While the President made big news announcing that he was changing the name of Mt. McKinley to Denali, the irony is that multiple glaciers there are actually expanding,  according  to the National Park Service, something hard to square with his global warming fantasy. Also, while the media is busily hyping the storyl...

Secretary of State John Kerry sought to sound the alarm on climate change Monday, telling Arctic-nation leaders that a warming Earth is already threatening the world. Kerry’s message opening a State Department conference on Arctic policy in Anchorage, Alaska, was a call for global action to fight climate change for the sake of the world as a whole and the Arctic specifically. “The bottom line is that climate change is not a distant threat for our children and their children to worry about,” Kerry said. “It is now. It is happening now.” The State Department is hosting the conference — titled Global Leadership in the Arctic: Cooperation, Innovation, Engagement and Resilience — to gather diplomats from nations in the Arctic and countries with heavy Arctic interests and discuss climate change, security and related questions. President Obama will speak later Monday at the conference as part of his first visit to Alaska. Kerry focused his speech heavily on the effects...

  In a speech in Anchorage, Alaska, on Monday President Barack Obama warned that if nations do not act to stop climate change "we will condemn our children to a planet beyond their capacity to repair." "Climate change is no longer some far-off problem," Obama said." It is happening here. It is happening now. Climate change is already disrupting our agriculture and ecosystems, our water and food supplies, our energy, our infrastructure, human health, human safety--now. Today." If we were to abandon our course of action, if we stop trying to build a clean-energy economy and reduce carbon pollution, if we do nothing to keep the glaciers from melting faster, and oceans from rising faster, and forests from burning faster, and storms from growing stronger, we will condemn our children to a planet beyond their capacity to repair,” he said. “Submerged countries. Abandoned cities. Fields no longer growing. Indigenous peoples who can’t carry...

  Shrinking Alaskan glaciers served as a vivid backdrop for Barack Obama’s latest push for action on climate change in Anchorage on Monday night as he warned that the equivalent of 75 blocks of ice the size of the national mall in Washington were melting from the state every year. The president, who will visit the nearby Seward glacier on Tuesday to see its shrinkage for himself, urged international participants at the Glacier conference to act fast before it was too late to limit the impact not just on the region but the whole world. The Arctic is at the leading edge of climate change, a leading indicator of what the entire planet faces,” warned Obama, who said new research showed 75 gigatons of ice were disappearing from Alaskan glaciers annually – each gigaton the equivalent of a block stretching from the Capitol to the Lincoln memorial and four times as high as the Washington Monument. “Climate change is no longer some far-off problem,” he added. “Cl...
