“The Great Global Warming Swindle is back up on the net”
Great news and thanks for the new link.
A few weeks ago I was looking everywhere for it but all my previous Google links had dried up.
I shudda mention G. K. Chesterton somewhere in that post.

And also the things they KNOW to be false but on which they have bet their reputations, ego and livelihood.
With latest outburst of threats and ad hominem attacks, not reasoned arguments, coming from the high priests of AWG, I have a feeling that they see their house of cards collapsing soon.
Hey ... Maybe we should send a letter with the same words to HIM...

HIS BIO: Michael Eckhart is President of the American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE), co-chairman of the World Council for Renewable Energy (WCRE), and a member of the Steering Committee of the REN 21 global policy network. Since its formation in 2001, ACORE has grown to have over 400 organizational members; producing three major national conferences per year on renewable energy business, finance and policy; and participating in international renewable energy policy affairs. Mr. Eckhart is a member of the Clinton Global Initiative. He also works through Solar International Management, Inc. on the financing of solar energy (SolarBank), and on the development of a new international debt security called Global Development Bonds (GDB) for the financing of sustainable development in the developing countries. He has over 25 years of experience in renewable energy, power generation, high technology, and finance. Previously, he was CEO of the IPP development firm United Power Systems, Inc.; Vice President of the venture capital firm Areté Ventures, Inc.; Manager of Strategic Planning for the Power Systems Sector of General Electric Company; and a Principal of Booz, Allen & Hamiltons energy practice. He served in the US Navy Submarine Service. He received a BS in Electrical Engineering from Purdue University and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
If one builds his/her entire belief system on a false premise, one can expect to be disappointed. In such situations, all questions and criticisms will be regarded as attacks and the smaller the mind/character, the more violent the response.
Now do you ‘believe’ in global warming? huh? chicken? come on I’ll kick your a$$, butthead, non-believer...nee ner nee ner nee ner
Sorry, Mr. Gallileo. It's the stake for you.
You captured its spirit perfectly!
Hm
This religion of theirs just continues on and on.
I ask the same question each time to the GW hounds and never get an answer. If humans are causing this on earth, why is Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto all warming at the same time according to NASA and other agencies?
It’s a simple question that has yet to be answered.

Funny, I ran into a real [non climate] scientist this morning and asked him if he’d watched Live Earth! He apologized for missing it. He chuckled about Global Warming and I mentioned a former colleague of ours remarks about the ozone hole. I knew a lot of people in the early 1990’s who were experts on the ionosphere. They were shaking their heads about the ozone hole scare, it was just so completely goofy.
Anyway, one guy, an ionospheric scientist, figured that a lot of ionospheric scientists needed to find a new gig with the cold war drying up. Most ionospheric studies were funded by the Air Force and they figured they needed a new sponsor. I guess global warming fit the bill.
The Church’s treatment of Galileo was civil and rational compared to the behavior of GW adherents. I mean that, read the history.
Trouble is, nobody will deny THAT. The trouble comes about because they have elided the magic word: "Anthropogenic."
That's what they need to justify. But they won't allow discussion of it.
“As an argument, Global Warming quickly falls apart when you consider the logical steps to reduce it.
We do not fully grasp the causes of GW, (solar, cosmic, clouds, etc.) nor are any there any cost effective fixes as yet, without putting an end to Chinese coal burning and third world slash and burn.”
Actually, there is a cost-effective method to reduce our CO2 generation by half or more: USE NUCLEAR POWER.
By adopting nuclear power for 80% of our electricity generation, the 40% of CO2 from that source (most from coal) could be reduced to nothing. WE can further reduce
CO2 by displacing some of the fossil fuel use in transportation and heating with nuclear-derived electricity.
Consequently, we could with reasonable cost get to a point where our CO2 generation is cut in half.
EVEN BETTER - it wouldn’t cost us anything more than we pay for energy today, because nuclear power is cost-competitive with all other forms of energy.
Question: If this solution for cutting CO2 in half is right there in front of our faces, WHY HASN’T THE GLOBAL WARMING SCAREMONGERS MENTIONED IT?
“Current solutions are have been too focused on global wealth transfer, rather than actual climate change.”
.... Uh, yeah, that has something to do with it.
It’s an anti-energy agenda instead of a clean energy agenda.
That was almost as good as Zell Miller making Chrissy Matthews cry during the pubbie convention.....04 was one helluvan election year!
But now, we have Fred to look forward too.....he'll be spittin out libs like watermelon seeds....yeeehawwww!
We used to call this fascism.
I still call it fascism.
Boy, you just described my entire college years.
