For global warming believers, 2013 was the year from Hell

2013 has been a gloomy year for global warming enthusiasts. The sea ice in the Antarctic set a record, according to NASA, extending over a greater area than at any time since 1979 when satellite measurements first began. In the Arctic the news is also glum. Five years ago, Al Gore predicted that by 2013 “the entire North polar ice cap will be gone.” Didn’t happen. Instead, a deflated Gore saw the Arctic ice cap increase by 50% over 2012. This year’s Arctic ice likewise exceeded that of 2008, the year of his prediction. And that of 2009, 2010 and 2011.

Better luck next year alarmists.  Read the rest of Lawrence Solomon at Financial Post.

The fatcat ecocrats exposed: Web of ‘green’ politicians, tycoons and power brokers who help each other benefit from billions raised on your bills

David Rose,  Mail Online U.K.  Dec.14, 2013

  • Four of nine-person Climate Change  Committee, official watchdog that dictates green energy policy, are, or were  until recently, being paid by firms that benefit from  committee decisions 

Other  industries would stand accused of damning conflicts of interest but when it  comes to global warming, anything goes…

The Mail on Sunday today reveals the  extraordinary web of political and financial interests creating dozens of  eco-millionaires from green levies on household energy bills.

A three-month investigation shows that some  of the most outspoken campaigners who demand that consumers pay the colossal  price of shifting to renewable energy are also getting rich from their  efforts.

Anyone that is not aware, that the “great global warming scandal”, is in it’s death throes, is not paying attention!  There are very few people,  clinging desperately to the AGW notion, unless they stand to make millions, or even billions, on the backs of the ratepayers.     We need their useless “green energy solutions”,  like we need a hole in the head.  The money that is being wasted on this farce, could be much better spent, on feasible solutions, for real problems!

AGW is a way to scare people into submission. Simple!

http://notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/2013/12/06/global-warming-consensus-crumbling/  We were being frightened into going along with their nonsense, but that train is leaving the station.  We know better, now!

Global warming burns itself out….

http://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/12/05/a-theory-ready-for-extinction/  If anything, the theory now, is that we are entering a cooling phase.  All completely natural, as a matter of fact, it’s been happening as long as….”weather” has!  LOL!

Imagine that….seasons, just like we’ve always had.

Financial Post on a Roll This Week

Climate forecast: All’s well, despite what the IPCC says.                                     Kesten C. Green, J. Scott Armstrong and Willie Soon, Special to Financial Post | 08/10/13

Our research in progress tests more forecasting methods, uses more and better data, and extends the validation tests to the present time. The findings strengthen our conclusions that there are no scientific forecasts of dangerous global warming.

Without scientific forecasts, the alarm is false. Government programs, subsidies, taxes, and regulations put up as responses to the global warming alarm can only result in wasteful misallocations of valuable resources.
