... in the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency is issuing more anti-hydrocarbon regulations and more statements detailing the coming horrors of “dangerous manmade climate change.”
Two points must be kept uppermost: the global warming “disasters” exist only in computer models, Hollywood movies and alarmist assertions; and the “preventative measures” are worse than the disasters.
The issue is not whether greenhouse gases “contribute to” climate change. Scientists acknowledge that. The only relevant issues are: How big a contribution? Do these gases now dominate planetary climate variation, supplanting the solar, atmospheric, oceanic and other forces that have warmed and cooled our Earth throughout its history? And will human GHG/CO2 emissions cause dangerous climate changes that are unprecedented, worse than we have confronted since time immemorial and impossible for modern, technologically advanced societies to deal with?
No evidence supports EPA or Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change positions on these issues.

No GHG is not universally acknowledged as cause of global
in fact there is much knowledge of its benefits.
When are the sequester furloughs going to hit these worthless bass turds?
Your post about Holder from the Albany Tribune is the starngest post I’ve ever seen, it’s not possible to comment on it and I’ve never seen such a post in 15 years.
Flatly untrue statement.
I get very tired of people saying there is no evidence, when what they mean is there isn't sufficient evidence to prove the case. Which is the case in this instance.
So let’s split a hair, it means the same thing practically. “The science” is not good enough to give any kind of reliable prediction of what would happen from the data available to us, and much of the purported evidence has problems as blatant as urban heat islands.
Consider the hair split.
When a case fails in court, we don’t say there was “no evidence.” We say the case was not proven.
One of the places this turns up most frequently is the claim there is “no evidence” for the existence of God. Which is an idiotic statement. There’s all kinds of evidence, some of it stronger than others. What doesn’t exist is proof. IOW, evidence is insufficient, not absent.
But this seems to be a nit that only I am interested in picking.
Carry on.
Given that science has yet to prove that CO2 actually causes warming, everything they keep telling us is fantasy or religion not science.
Well, most discussions about God totally dance around the issue of spirit. Nobody doubted spirit until materialism came along (the practitioners of physical sciences rebelled against their spiritistic philosophical roots) and claimed to present a comprehensive world view. Instead we got the hopelessly vague “psychology.”
If spirit is accepted as postulate, God is not all that difficult to demonstrate.
Computer projections of insufficiently understood processes are not science.
They are a huge series of guesses fed into a program and manipulated very precisely.
The end product being a guess. Guess In, Guess Out.
The computer program gives it much more the appearance of accuracy than it does the substance. I use estimating programs in my work where guesses (estimates) are fed into a program which then spits out precise answers. People bow down to the end result in a way they never would if I just handed them a price on a business card. But the real difference in accuracy is slight if any.
That has more to tell us about beliefs about computers than anything else.
Absolutely. And all kinds of other digital devices.
I use a hygrometer that reads out in tenths of a percent. But it has a 2% to 5% margin of error, depending on how high or low the humidity is.
But people look at the reading of 53.4% and think the device is actually measuring to that degree of accuracy.
In my undergraduate science and engineering labs, a big deal was made over keeping an appropriate degree of precision through calculations. Professors of electrical engineering would tell about the students who asked for a 57.63429 ohm resistor.
climate change freaks aren’t given a proper name, they are a hole between 2 cheeks and it’s not the one on your face!
That’s a good one!
was listenign to RC sProul sermon today, he said he lived in switzerland, and he said gobvdenrment ruels and regulatiosn were so bad, that if you broke a window in your own home, you coudl not simpyl replace it yourself- you HAD to get govenrment permission AFTER an inspection to hte home- and hten he said that back here in the states, peopel were not used to that kind of govenrment dictatorship- then corrected hismelf and said soemthign alogn htel iens of “Well, nowadays it’s becoming much like switzerland here”
And I thought-
Ya know? He’s exactly right- You can’t just go and put an addition or porch on your house yourself any longer EVEN IF you are a bonafied capenter- you MUST call and get persmission, have inspectors coem by, and tel you whether you can do the improvements
Little by little we are losing our rights here- and the EPA has been a major authoritarian influence on the loss of our freedoms
Jyro, thanks for posting that. Enlightening article.
I used to run a blog, and kept up on the ‘man-caused’ global warmign alarmism and I discovered that a fella went aroudn finding otu hwere these cliomatologist creeps placed their temperature monitors, and it was quite shocking top learn that many were right smack dab in them iddle of paved parking lots, on rooftops near large motors liek air conditioning units, in heat islands liek you saidf etc- They were purposely choosing notoriously hot areas, and then extrapolating htose temperature readings out to mean that the whole world was experiencign thsoe temperature ‘increases’-
The deception and lies emenating from this whole ‘man-caused’ global wamring crap is shameful
