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

The AOH is an ephemeral (every Oct-Nov) thinning of stratospheric ozone at an altitude of 20-25 km, roughly covering the Antarctic continent; unanticipated, it was discovered serendipitously in 1985 but is now tracked with satellite-borne ozone meters.  Its discovery created much panic about an epidemic of skin cancers that led directly to passage of the 1987 Montreal Protocol, an international treaty stopping the manufacture and release into the atmosphere of ozone-depleting chemicals, including CFCs used in refrigeration and bromine-containing fire suppressants. Recently, there have been many voices, suggesting that the AOH is shrinking, presumably as a result of the Protocol.  I am somewhat skeptical of the evidence, but also for theoretical reasons.  I am inclined to blame wishful thinking –- a desire to justify  post facto  the 1987 Montreal Protocol and the economic losses it has produced around the world since then.  By impli...

 I saw the once verdant wheat fields of Eastern Europe covered with ugly wind turbines, slowly spinning their huge blades into the wind. A few funnel dust swirls were blowing the topsoil into the air. They did not appear to be connected to any storage station that would distribute the electrical power generated. I searched and found out that they were really not connected to any network, were not generating usable electricity, they were all for show to placate the “green growth” European bureaucrats who gave them money to install the eyesores instead of growing crops. Turbines kill birds on a large scale around the world and disturb humans and wildlife.  According to Save the Eagles International, “contrary to what we are told, wind farms will cause the extinction of many bird and bat species” because birds are naturally attracted to tall structures. While millions of birds and bats are dying needlessly, wind turbines and solar panels are still installed around t...

It is San Francisco's dirty little secret," said Mo, a former Safety Network Community organizer in the Sunset District. "It's not news to us." Hundreds of people marched into Tuesday's  Board of Supervisors  meeting to express their fear, frustration and outrage. But so far the response has been disappointing, particularly from the  San Francisco Police Department . It seems intent on downplaying the role of race and its impact in the community. The recent incidents of black violence against Asians is the perfect opportunity to open a dialogue about racism. Instead, they are attempting to close the door. City officials, including the Police Department, say these assaults are part of a larger crime picture where gangs of kids take advantage of a vulnerable group of small stature. But Mo participated in a 2008 survey by the Police Department in which about 300 strong-arm robberies were analyzed. "In 85 percent of the physical assault crimes, th...

They called it a “ground breaking study,” I call it rubbish. This new study claims that global warming began in 1830 just when the industrial revolution began to pick up steam (no pun intended). What they didn’t take into account was just around the same time the Earth was coming out of an unusually cold 40-year period caused by low sunspot activity called the Dalton Minimum (no relation to Timothy Dalton). An international team of scientists, led by  Associate Professor Nerilie Abram  from the Australian National University, have analysed detailed reconstructions of climate going back 500 years. To their surprise, they’ve found that the current global warming trend began in the 1830s, further confirming that it is an anthropogenic, or human-induced, phenomenon. The study was published  today in Nature . Co-researcher  Dr Helen McGregor , an earth sciences expert from the University of Wollongong, tells SBS Science the findings have a major imp...

   I received an email from someone who claimed, “The possible dramatic effect of a 35% increase in CO2, since 1958, cannot be denied”. My response to him was that he was being influenced by the specious nature of the so-called “greenhouse effect”. In the real world, climate change is far more complex than just “more CO2 in the atmosphere = warmer climate.” Let’s examine the claim, “The possible dramatic effect of a 35% increase in CO2, since 1958, cannot be denied” Well, yes, it can be denied. Just for the record, the increase in atmospheric CO2 from 1958 to 2013 was not 35%, it was 25% (315 to 395, do the math). The chart below explains why a 35% (or even a 3500%) increase in atmospheric CO2 from current levels might easily have no real impact on global climate (depends on where CO2 is when you start adding CO2 for your comparison). How high do you think those bars will be for CO2 levels of 800 and beyond? They are already over-represented for illustration. A...
