Beam me to Planet Gore !

With its 2007 report declaring that the "warming of the climate system is unequivocal," the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change won a Nobel Prize -- and a new degree of public trust in the controversial science of global warming.
But recent revelations about flaws in that seminal report, ranging from typos in key dates to sloppy sourcing, are undermining confidence not only in the panel's work but also in projections about climate change. Scientists who have pointed out problems in the report say the panel's methods and mistakes -- including admitting Saturday that it had overstated how much of the Netherlands was below sea level -- give doubters an opening.
It wasn't the first one. There is still a scientific consensus that humans are causing climate change. But in the past year, a cache of stolen e-mails, revealing that prominent climate scientists sought to prevent the publication of works by their detractors, has sullied their image as impartial academics. The errors in the U.N. report -- a document intended to be the last nail in the coffin of climate doubt -- are a serious problem that could end up forcing environmentalists to focus more on the old question of proving that climate change is a threat, instead of the new question of how to stop it.
Two Republican senators who have long opposed a cap on carbon emissions, James M. Inhofe (Okla.) and John Barrasso (Wyo.), are citing the errors as further reasons to block mandatory limits on greenhouse gas emissions. Last week, Barrasso called for an independent probe into the IPCC, suggesting that the United States should halt any action on climate until it verifies the panel's scientific conclusions.
Inhofe said Thursday in the Senate that the Environmental Protection Agency's efforts to curb greenhouse gases should be reexamined...

Will Prince Albert have to give back his Nobel Prize for Gorebull Warming??
Can't give it up, can they?
I submit the Compost knew all along it was a scam.
“There is still a scientific consensus that humans are causing climate change.”

That’s waking up?... This has the potential to discredit the entire American left.
Al Gore first. Then the newspapers, the universities and the enviros.
Keep hammering liberals about this.
They’re wrong. This is a winner. Knock them over the head with it over, and over. Use Saul Alinsky tactics on them.
Ridicule and repeat.
Then again.
It’s one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but it’s quite another to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...
THEREFORE..., it’s 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. It’s a very well-made documentary.
“The Great Global Warming Swindle”
If you want to download it, via a BitTorrent site (using a BitTorrent client), you can get it at the following link. Information about BitTorrent protocol and BitTorrent clients and their comparison at these three links (in this sentence). Some additional BitTorrent information here and here.
Download it here...

[This is a high-quality copy, of about a gigabyte in size. This link is the information about it, and you have to click the download link to get it on your BitTorrent client software. You'll also find users' comments here, too.]
It’s worth seeing and having for relatives, friends, neighbors and coworkers to see.
Also, see it online here...

[this one is considerably lower quality, is a flash video and viewable online, of course..., and also, you can download flash video on a website either yourself or some software doing it.]
Buy it on DVD here...
[this would be the very highest quality version, on a DVD disk, of several gigabytes in size...] At Amazon, it seems to be high-priced now and have only a few copies right now.

At WAGtv (a UK shop), but don't know about shipping. The price is reasonable, though.

How about flat out lying and leftist gangsterism?
Must be a euphemism for FRAUD.
Can't give it up, can they?
The scientific consensus of which they speak must consist entirely of single, white, female, liberal, elementary science teachers who divide their time between teaching climate change and making Kwanzaa ornaments.
Lesbian.
You forgot lesbian.
The world, let alone the US, can’t afford climate change policys......even if it was true. This whole thing has hit the world at the wrong time. There are more pressing issues than climate change at this time.
Memo to editors of the Compost: It's called criminal fraud, lads.
GMTA, m’FRiend!
BTW, I'm looking forward to reading A Patriot's History currently on order from Amazon. :)
Must be a euphemism for FRAUD.
My first thought as well..
Not much of a “wake up” if you ask me. No (real) warming since 1995? Missing data? Hurricanes not getting more common or stronger? No (real) rise in sea levels? Midevil warm period warmer then today? The AGW crowd is going down in flames and these is the best W.P. can do to cover the story? The Brits are putting USA media to shame.
