One of the greatest inanities that occurs in the climate wars is the claim that skeptics are lavishly funded by big oil or other political interests. t is a claim that is made multiple times daily and blogs and newspaper articles and magazine articles and yet where is the evidence that such a thing is a reality?
Im often targeted as being in the pay of one of those interest and yet when you look at my reality I had to beg for help to get to Bristol, to visit the Mann and Cook lectures. I relied on the good graces of our daily readers for which I thank you.
So with this huge disparity it struck me as ironic that this ad appeared at the top of WUWT today. It likely appeared because Im traveling and came from a new IP address. I had never seen it before but Im not at all surprised that it would show up given the content and nature of this blog.
A look at the EDF finances page is quite telling:

It is disgusting and disappointing watching Federal Agencies such as NASA, NOAA, and DOD, PROSTITUTE THEIR INTEGRITY, to endorse such political nonsense.
When it comes to so called “Climate Change” and “Global Warming”, I always said “follow the money”. Same thing holds true with the whole Environmental Lobby which I maintain is the biggest threat there is to the Nations Economy and National Security.

Somehow our government feels we benefit from adjusting the clocks to obscure our perception of time. They do this in other ways; inflation data, unemployment data, census data, health data and, many other policy forming information are, massaged or adjusted to generate metadata in order to help us cope with the myriad of societal problems we face. By, calibrating information we can improve the, message and impose policies to resolve issues. Daylight savings was adopted to help us save energy, or so the argument goes.
As a service to my country, and in an attempt to help us feel better and get along, I would like to help stop the climate science debate by proposing a new way to handle the problem. We should have stop adjusting the data from the many weather stations used to measure climate change and simply introduce thermometers calibrated for winter and summer. On the spring and fall equinoxes we simply exchange thermometers. The summer thermometers will measure 100 degrees Fahrenheit as 85 degrees, summer cooling therms and in the winter, 32 degrees will be reported as 45 winter warming therms. By adjusting the terms we improve the therms!
We will end all the acrimony of unsettled science. We will all save energy and reduce pollution by feeling better about the milder temperatures and most importantly we will come together as a nation united by our common delusion!
A better solution would be that all who believe that CO2 causes global warming should quit exhaling.
The results of this one action alone would immediately and significantly contribute to lower CO2 levels.
We would also solve a number of other problems that these same idiots cause us.
