What should we do?

By Bob Knutson What should we do? Recently, the Record-Bee published a missive from Michael Mann that attempted to defend the global warming scam. Professor Mann’s so-called research has been so thoroughly refuted by the scientific community that further comment by me would be redundant. However, the letter from Norman Fleishman in the June 17 […]

Taking the Tip from Tipper: Divorcing AGW

By Marc Oestreich Former Vice President Al Gore spent the last decade as a larger-than-life figure, more of a symbol than a living, breathing human being. Stolen from the pages of a Danielle Steele novel and plopped on stage at the 2000 Democratic Convention, this normally lifeless personality was possessed by the ghost of Madmen’s […]

Alarmists keep ringing the bell

By Dr. Richard Lindzen In November last year a file appeared on the internet containing thousands of emails and other documents from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in Britain. How this file got into the public domain is still uncertain, but the emails, whose authenticity is no longer in question, […]

In Denial

The Meltdown of the Climate Campaign By Steven F. Hayward It is increasingly clear that the leak of the internal emails and documents of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in November has done for the climate change debate what the Pentagon Papers did for the Vietnam war debate 40 years […]

The Hidden Flaw in Greenhouse Theory

By Alan Siddons Insulated by an outer crust, the surface of the earth acquires nearly all of its heat from the sun. The only exit for this heat to take is through a door marked “Radiation.” And therein lies a tale…  Recently, I chanced upon an Atmospheric Science Educator Guide [PDF] published by NASA. Aimed at students in grades […]

New Research Finds No Increase in CO2 in Past 150 Years

A paper published in Geophysical Research Letters finds no statistically significant increase in the airborne proportion of anthropogenic carbon dioxide over the past 150 years. Being that climate scientists like those from the Climactic Research Unit at Hadley and alarmist members of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) claims that increased CO2 is to blame […]

Open Letter to Secretary-General of United Nations

His Excellency Ban Ki Moon Secretary-General, United Nations New York, NY United States of America 8 December 2009 Dear Secretary-General, Climate change science is in a period of ‘negative discovery’ – the more we learn about this exceptionally complex and rapidly evolving field the more we realize how little we know. Truly, the science is […]

NASAgate

By Investors Business Daily Editorial Board For two years, our space agency has refused Freedom of Information requests on why it has repeatedly corrected its climate figures. A leading researcher threatens to sue to find more inconvenient truths. What’s become known as “Climate-Gate” may be about to explode on this side of the pond as […]

The Web Discloses Inconvenient Climate Truths

The world cannot trust scientists who abuse their power By Gordon Crovitz For anyone who doubts the power of the Internet to shine light on darkness, the news of the month is how digital technology helped uncover a secretive group of scientists who suppressed data, froze others out of the debate, and flouted freedom-of-information laws. […]

Experts Say that Fears Surrounding Climate Change are Overblown

By Hannah Devlin Alarming predictions that climate change will lead to the extinction of hundreds of species may be exaggerated, according to Oxford scientists. They say that many biodiversity forecasts have not taken into account the complexities of the landscape and frequently underestimate the ability of plants and animals to adapt to changes in their […]

New Scientific Study Could Destroy Global Warming Theory

A newly released scientific study published by MIT climate scientist Richard Lindzen has the potential of destroying one of the fundamental underpinnings of global warming theorists.  The study collected 15-years of long wave radiation measurements from a satellite orbiting the earth.  The study correlates the change in the earth’s surface temperature with the change in outgoing long wave radiation.  Lindzen’s […]
