Scientists involved in the global warming scandal have been changing their stories. Suddenly, the debate is not over. There is room for doubt. Maybe it's not that hot after all. Maybe there is no imminent threat. The work of the UN's political panel on climate (the IPCC) has not been up to scientific standards and the whole organization needs reform.It's the least they can do unless they intend to go down with a sinking ship. The facts are out. They sold false beliefs to the public in exchange for money. The scientific data used as a basis for their claims was faked, cherry-picked, biased, manipulated, and intentionally misinterpreted. Real data was hidden and destroyed to hide the truth.
But that hasn't stopped a flood of articles from being created claiming that the IPCC reports provide scientifically sound conclusions. Skeptics and deniers are making too much of the one or two (or four) little mistakes typos really that can be found in their monumental and near-perfect products.
Those who've followed the global warming issue likely already know in which camp the climate science blog at RealClimate.org belongs. RealClimate is the mother-of-all warming propaganda sites, established and operated by some of the original hoaxers.
Wonder how short of a vastly complex and expensive network of interconnected cells - so many environmental journalists around the world present exactly the same arguments (often word-for-word) in article after article, relying on exactly the same alleged facts? It's simple really. That's what was posted at RealClimate; so that's what the Mimeograph machines of modern eco-journalism report.
Read Steve Mosher's analysis in Global warming: Real Climate's defence of the IPCC report--the truth doesn't matter.
I smell money.
Trying to cover for their liability for scamming billions from taxpayers and even world govs that certainy could not afford this travesty.
when the Lawsuits start...Katie bar the door.
However, what you will find out that is true, is that "outer space" (in the form of cosmic rays) is the culprit that has been changing our weather for the most part (some other variations, too, included). See the following for more information...
Its one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but its quite another to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...
THEREFORE..., its also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply one video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the one...
The following is an excellent video documentary on the so-called Global Warming I would recommend it to all FReepers. Its a very well-made documentary.

“Follow the money.” It is always the case. For decades there has been an enormous amount of grant and research money for the research of global warming and later on for obvious reasons, “climate change.” As a researcher or grant writer it was plain to see that if you were not writing reports favorable to the already stated conclusion, namely that the planet is getting warmer, you were not going to be getting future grants. So it is always about the money and your future in the field. Dissenters were marginalized and disparaged as shills for oil companies and their careers were put in jeopardy.
These are dangerous people the proponents of global warming. This is the new Socialism.

Second, I can think of no better way that the US could do its part than to return to neighborhood schools and scrap all those smoke-belching school busses.
Home schooling. Children won’t even have to breath hard, exhaling all that CO2 to get to school.
And the major source of that money was government grants ... buying “scientific” cover for a major expansion of Big Government. <p.Who could possibly have seen that coming? ;-)
The Left is a barbaric wrecking machine.
Does Mann still run the site or oversee it?
President Eisenhower in his 1961 Farewell address.
The Military-Industrial Complex is not all he warned of.
Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades.In this revolution, research has become central, it also becomes more formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government.
Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.
The prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded.
Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.
It is the task of statesmanship to mold, to balance, and to integrate these and other forces, new and old, within the principles of our democratic system ever aiming toward the supreme goals of our free society.
As time passes, Eisenhower becomes even more wise --- or just maybe, we are wising up to near his level. He may be our most under rated President. He saw this Bull s**t storm coming 60 years ago and warned us against it.
Great prescient quote from Ike.

Cold snap killing Florida’s coral reefs
Mon Feb 15, 6:37 pm ET
MIAMI (AFP) The polar snap enveloping much of the United States in record cold has been killing off coral reefs in the normally balmy warm waters off the Florida Keys, experts said Monday.
The unusually chilly weather so far this year has seen sea temperatures plummet in southern Florida — a fatal development for the coral, which dies when exposed for an extended time to temperatures below 15 degrees Celsius (59 degrees Fahrenheit).
We talked to friends who had spent the last two plus weeks in the Grand Bahamas, and they said it was darn cold there:

Grand Bahama Experiences Cold Snap
By Courtnee Romer
It was not nearly as cold as it was in the north-east United States, but Grand Bahama residents were yesterday bracing for another day of what meteorologists called the coldest snap of this winter season.
According to meteorologist, Trinard Tynes of the Freeport Weather Department, yesterday saw a high of 60 degrees Fahrenheit, with a wind chill factor making it feel like 48 degrees.
Some residents enjoyed the cool weather, dressing in warm jackets, caps, and even mittens.
But one resident, Patrick Laing, said he did not even need the extra attire as this type of weather suits him just fine.
“Im enjoying this cold weather very much. I dont like it when its hot because I get sticky; it makes me feel uncomfortable and restless. It seems like there is nothing to cool you down,” Mr. Laing said.
Another resident, Faye Laing, admitted that “its kind of cold” but she was enjoying it, while another resident, Khambrel Farrington, said this weather was “good cuddling weather”, just in time for Valentines Day.
“I dont mind this at all,” Mr. Farrington said.
Ashburne Lewis, another Grand Bahamian, echoed similar sentiments.
“Im enjoying it a lot, but in the evening time, I stay inside because it gets real cold and I bundle up or should I say, cuddle up,” Mr. Lewis said.
But another resident said it was just too cold and she was not enjoying the weather all.
In fact, it was so cold that District Superintendent of Freeport, Sandra Edgecombe, dismissed all public schools in her district half day on Monday because of the weather.
Mrs. Edgecombe told The Bahama Journal that “it was unbearably cold” and some students were not dressed appropriately for the weather. She said that some of the schools windows were not closing properly and so she felt the need to dismiss school.
Mrs. Edgecombe, who was bundled up herself, said she also asked the principals to be lenient in what the children will wear today, saying that if the weather persisted schools may also get out half today.
Mr. Tynes said last night was expected to be the coldest night of the week, with temperatures expected to plunge to 48 degrees Fahrenheit, with the wind chill factor making it feel like 35.
“Not only did we just recently have a passage of a strong cold front that brought all the cold temperatures, we have a secondary frontal boundary that has rapidly slipped through some time [Sunday] morning and all it did for this second one was to keep the colder temperatures over us. The winds are also going to stay on the strong side,” Mr. Tynes said.
However, for residents who prefer the warmer weather, good news is on the way.
Mr. Tynes said as the week continues it should get progressively warmer.
For the month of February, the lowest temperature recorded was 41.7 degrees in 1996, although the coldest day on record for Grand Bahama was 39, when it snowed in January 1977.
