Climategate

"Carbon (Dioxide) trading is now the fastest growing commodities market on earth.....And here’s the great thing about it. Unlike traditional commodities markets, which will eventually involve delivery to someone in physical form, the carbon (dioxide) market is based on lack of delivery of an invisible substance to no-one. Since the market revolves around creating carbon (dioxide) credits, or finding carbon (dioxide) reduction projects whose benefits can then be sold to those with a surplus of emissions, it is entirely intangible."

This blog has been tracking the 'Global Warming Scam' for over ten years now. There are a very large number of articles being published in blogs and more in the MSM who are waking up to the fact the public refuse to be conned any more and are objecting to the 'green madness' of governments and the artificially high price of energy. This blog will now be concentrating on the major stories as we move to the pragmatic view of 'not if, but when' and how the situation is managed back to reality. To quote Professor Lindzen, "a lot of people are going to look pretty silly"

NASA : Arctic Melting At -30C

Real Science
On March 7, the usual band of Arctic fraudsters announced that after months of ice growth, darkness and cold, Arctic sea ice had “sunk” to a record low.  Since then, Arctic sea ice has been much higher than recent years, and they have completely lost interest in it. This year brought the smallest melt of the last decade, and summer temperatures were below normal every day at the North Pole. But that isn’t quite true. Now they just lie and/or spin. Experts have now turned their attention to the Antarctic (which they ignored for the past 35 years as the ice expanded.) The bad news for these fraudsters is that when Antarctic sea ice declines, Arctic sea ice increases – as seen in the 1990 IPCC report. This indicates that whatever drives ice behavior, is not CO2. One more reason why NOAA now pretends they don’t have any satellite data prior to 1979. Government climate experts are professional fraudsters, not scientists."

The 11-Year Major Hurricane Drought: Much More Unusual than Two Cat 4 Strikes

Roy W. Spencer, Ph. D.
 ......
The Probability of the 11-Year “Drought” in Major Landfalling Hurricane
In 2015, a NASA study was published which calculated how unlikely the (then) 9-year stretch with no major hurricane landfalls was. They came up with a 177 year return period for such an event.
I used that statistic to estimate what eventually happened, which was 11 years with no major hurricane strikes.
I get a return period of 560 years!
Now, which seems more unusual and potentially due to climate change: something that should happen only once every 50 years, or every 560 years?
Maybe global warming causes fewer landfalling major hurricanes."

Is the Enlightenment dimming?

Matt Ridley
Mel Brooks said last week that comedy is becoming impossible in this censorious age and he never could have made his 1974 film Blazing Saddles today. A recent poll found that 38 per cent of Britons and 70 per cent of Germans think the government should be able to prevent speech that is offensive to minorities. If you give a commencement speech at a US university these days and don’t attract a shouty mob, you’re clearly a nobody. “There’s an almost religious quality to many of the protests,” says Jonathan Haidt of New York University, citing the denunciations. ......

Revealed: Obama EPA hid experimental data debunking 2015 ozone rule

JunkScience
Why let the Obama EPA’s own science get in the way of the most expensive EPA rule of all time?
JunkScience.com has obtained via the Freedom of Information Act the results of an Obama EPA-conducted human experiment that directly contradicts the Obama EPA’s 2015 decision to tighten the air quality standard for ozone from 75 parts per billion (ppb) to 70 ppb."

Three Extreme September 29’s

Real Science
On September 29, 1927 the south was hot and humid, and the north was cold. The cold front brought a huge tornado outbreak to the midwest. September 29, 1953 brought 100 degree temperatures to much of the Midwest. Imagine the hysteria if this happened now. September 29, 1984 brought cold weather to almost the entire country. There is no correlation between heatwaves and CO2, or extreme weather and CO2. People who claim there is are fraudsters, not scientists. "

German ARD Meteorologist: “Can’t Blame Climate Change” For This Year’s Hurricanes… “Many Factors”

NoTricksZone
Last Tuesday morning German flagship ARD public television meteorologist Donald Bäcker surprised some climate-realist viewers here with a very level-headed look at the factors behind hurricane development.
I use the word “surprise” here because the massive German public media system are generally devout warmists and vigilant gatekeepers against skeptic views. Open discussion here means discussion only among adherents and the like-minded. Anyone with a dissident view usually is branded and excluded."

Update: The 2017 Explosion Of Non-Hockey Stick Graphs Continues

NoTricksZone
In the last 4 months,  40 more graphs taken from 30 more new peer-reviewed scientific papers have made their way into the ever-growing volume of evidence that today’s climate is not only not unprecedented or unusual in the context of the last millennium, but modern temperature values are still among the coldest of the last 10,000 years.

Scientists surprised that reef that survived the hotter holocene is already recovering from 2016 bleaching

JoNova (Australia)
Who would have thought that after 5,000 years of climate change, sea level change, temperature change and super-storms every 200 years — that the Great Barrier Reef would have something left up its sleeve?
Much of the ABC reporting on the Great Barrier Reef damage uses vague terms. If I was feeling cruel, I might call them “weasel words”:

Quote of the Week: The cost of daring to write about climate

WUWT
Matt Ridley: “I’ve written about many controversial issues during my career,” Ridley said.
Never, have I ever experienced anything like what happens when you write about climate, which is a systematic and organized attempt to blacken your name rather than your arguments, and to try to pressure any outlet that publishes me into not publishing me any more.”

More than 100 schools sign on to teach health risks of climate change

WUWT

From the comments:

Perhaps the first thing taught should be that the world’s plant life has an absolute necessity for atmospheric CO2, and that the current level is anomalously and dangerously low, as it has been for hundreds of thousands of years. The slight rise in the last century has been absolutely beneficial.
Secondly, humans breathe out 40,000 ppm, and absolutely require CO2 in their system to survive. Life on Earth developed when CO2 levels were many times higher.
Thirdly, they could try to prove empirically that CO2 causes warming in a convectively controlled atmosphere.
All it takes is a little bit of basic education instead of mindless anti-science propaganda and the AGW farce dies a natural death . !!!"
