Proving once again Global Warming is about research grants to study the obvious. At least this one is rather optimistic for plants. The last story I recall on “CO2 is plant food” was how rising CO2 was going to inundate us with poison ivy.

Very nice article on Are the ice caps melting? Also, I always enjoy Chris Horner’s take.

Oh my! The sky is falling! The sky is falling! This is the last chance! We must ACT NOW!
Yeah, now that NASA’s own data shows the warming trend ended and we’ve been in a cooling trend that has already dropped average temperatures below where we started these idiots are pumping up the demagoguery before […]

Not sure how I’ve missed this essay on the religion of global warming. A good read unless you’re a global warming fanatic, then you’ll hate it.
There is no faster way to make an enemy than to point out the truth of someone’s faults.

While Chris Horner goes on the offensive over McCain-Lieberman, oh, I’m sorry, Lieberman-Warner in other “global warming” news carbon dioxide is plant food. Who would have thought? Well besides any 2nd grader who paid attention to their science textbook.
Still remember those ‘global warming is making poison ivy grow faster!’ alarmist news reports from the […]

I’ve said for some time when the weatherman cannot accurately model the weather a few days out why should anyone be foolish enough to believe their projections of global warming doom 10, 20 or 50 years out? Even near term models such as this hurricane season are so abysmally incorrect even the AP notes […]

If there are 31,000 scientists who don’t agree global warming exists or is caused by man how big would the pool of scientists have to be to make the word “consensus” applicable?

If you still believe the anti-oil hubbub is about anything other than power then don’t miss the missing big story that no one is covering.
The Bio-fuel scientists are right now trying to make bacteria more efficient in making ethanol and that has been covered on the regular evening news programs at length. But […]

Hm, now this is interesting, a FOXNews.com - scientist says Forget Global Warming, Prepare for New Ice Age
“This is the fastest temperature change in the instrumental record, and it puts us back to where we were in 1930,” Chapman wrote in The Australian Wednesday. “If the temperature does not soon recover, we will have to […]

Three divergent articles on global warming, or the lack thereof, today. The first one is on the lack of temperature rise since 1998 which is a pretty startling piece of information to read from the BBC. Second up is how the lack of major disasters in the last couple of years (where did those forecast […]

Did you hear that using a cell phone for 10 years is more dangerous than smoking for 10 years? No? Bet the cellular companies really don’t want you to read the study.

If you think its lowering your cholesterol you’d better think again.
“no result— zilch. In no subgroup, in no segment, was there any added benefit” in terms of reducing plaque, said Dr. John Kastelein
Oops…

There seems to be some questions regarding the integrity of the IPCC report which we’ve known for some time now.
several assessments of the IPCC’s work have shown the techniques and methods used to derive its climate predictions are fundamentally flawed.
Its nice to see the countering research to global warming finally getting some airing. Over […]

Since we have “consensus” on global warming the Scientists meeting in NYC who challenge it must be as fictious as…… global warming.

Bye-bye Global Warming. Hello Global Cooling. Haven’t we been here before? Say… one solar cycle ago?

Those of the Global Warming religion are so upset by some interesting cooling trends they’re speaking out that the global is still warming despite some of the evidence we see to the contrary. Despite the fact that 2008 is projected to be the coolest since 2000.. it even snowed in Baghdad which hasn’t seen snow […]

According to the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works…
Over 400 prominent scientists from more than two dozen countries recently voiced significant objections to major aspects of the so-called “consensus” on man-made global warming.
Surely that cannot be correct! I mean we have consensus, right!? Right…?

I firmly believe someone who commits acts of violence is responsible for those actions no matter their “environment” but when we start talking about kids it gets a bit murkier. While gamers and Hollywood deny their “media” does not induce, cause or lead to violence the escalation of youth violence over the past decade warrants […]

An interesting look at the dangers of radiation in the Spiegel article Nuclear Exaggeration: Is Atomic Radiation as Dangerous as We Thought? We know there are dangers in radiation and to error on the side of caution is prudent. But with a couple of real world population center detonations studying the effects is also prudent. […]

We all know that the surging hurricane activity is because of global warming, right? That because of “Man” hurricanes such as Katrina will become more frequent and stronger. That’s why we’ve had such horrific damage caused to the United States this year from these catastrophic hurricanes… er… oh.. guess not!
Does that prove anything other […]

Bjorg Lomborg’s op-ed in today’s Washington Post, Chill out is a good read as Bjorg usually is:
something that’s rarely mentioned is that temperatures in Greenland were higher in 1941 than they are today. Or that melt rates around Ilulissat were faster in the early part of the past century, according to a new study. And […]

I love it when radical enviro nutjobs actually reinforce a few points the *global warming is hooey* crowd have been discussing for several years. In their plight to wake up their own, much of it on target as far as it goes, Nordhaus and Shellenberger aren’t doing the big-business and political wing of “global warming” […]

Now that the Northwest Passage is open they’re blaming it on global warming? The Northwest Passage is one of the most fabled sea routes in the world, not because someone centuries ago saw it on a satellite image. but because sometime in the past the route was navigable. That’s how it became a […]

Three fast and fun “global warming” articles in one day is just too great for me to pass up especially when all three give at least some nod to the missing “consensus” we’ve all been hearing so much about.
First is about Reid Bryson, known as the father of scientific climatology who considers global warming […]
