Climate change is going to get you Robyn Wuth | November 7th, 2009 REPENT, the end of the world is nigh -- just ask my seven-year-old. As far as he is concerned we are on the brink of oblivion. He is terrified that the world is ending and every day has become a battle about climate change, global warming, the carbon footprint and water wasting.... more »

Alleviating Paul Krugman's Fears by Julie Walsh September 29, 2009 @ 1:14 pm Mr Krugman in Sunday's New York Times is worried. In his article "Cassandras of Science" he says, "What's driving this new pessimism? Partly it's the fact that some predicted changes, like a decline in Arctic Sea ice, are happening much faster than expected. Partly it's growing evidence that feedback loops amplifying the effects of man-made greenhouse gas emissions are stronger than previously realized. For example, it has long been understood that global warming will cause the tundra to thaw, releasing carbon dioxide, which will cause even more warming, but new research shows far more carbon locked in the permafrost than previously thought, which means a much bigger feedback effect."... more »

Obama, Car-Market Clairvoyant
|

Friday, November 06, 2009 Obama, Car-Market Clairvoyant [Henry Payne] Detroit - In rolling out its plan for the future of Chrysler on Wednesday, Fiat executives dutifully stressed that the "New Chrysler" would be more fuel efficient - hailing the tiny, 40 mpg, Euro-transplant Fiat 500 as a marquee car. After all, a precondition for Fiat's no-money-down takeover of the ailing automaker was that it conform to President Obama's prophecy for the auto industry.... more »

Enviros trying to wipe out soft toilet paper!

Enviros trying to wipe out soft toilet paper! by Michael Fumento September 27, 2009 @ 8:04 pm Okay, this time they've gone too far! Now, says the Washington Post, environmentalists are trying to wipe out plush toilet paper! They say that's because plush U.S. toilet paper is usually made from older trees - though not what's defined as "old growth" by any means. And older trees, they say, are better for absorbing carbon dioxide and thereby slowing global warming. (Have you noticed that there's nothing that can't be tied into global warming?) They want us Americans to wipe with the same stuff Europeans use, made from recycled paper goods. Well, I've been to Europe a lot and while I'm no xenophobe I must say their toilet paper is just one grade above sandpaper. No, ifs, ands, or butts about it. They'll get my soft toilet paper when they pry it from my cold dead hands! (Though I really don't want to be found dead sitting on "the throne" . . . )... more »

Fossil fuels debunked

Fossils From Animals And Plants Are Not Necessary For Crude Oil And Natural Gas, Swedish Researchers Find What would happen if it were proven that "fossil fuels" weren't the result of decaying plant and animal matter, were actually created within the Earth due to simple chemistry and you could not be scared into believing that we were "running out" of oil and natural gas?... more »

'Scientific consensus' should be put on the stand

'Scientific consensus' should be put on the stand Climate fear promoters, knowing that they will lose an open, honest public debate, fear a trial moreso. There are some important pieces of evidence that cast into serious doubt the case for manmade global warming. If the climate is being affected adversely and continually, we should see record temperatures, right? The evidence that shows that no continents have set a record high temperature since 1974.... more »
