Australia May Abandon Cap-and-Trade Scheme
Posted in Carbon Tax on 2 September 2008

Australia may be taking the first steps in abandoning the cap-and-trade scheme in favor of a direct carbon tax. While this isn’t certainly the best news to come out of the global warming hoax, the article’s author does make a valid point: a tax is much easier to repeal than an economic takeover [...]

Obama’s Climate Change We Can Believe In
Posted in Elections on 26 August 2008

The soon-to-be Democratic nominee says he will push hard to curb carbon.  Big Government Barack wants to expand the EPA’s authority over greenhouse gas emissions if Congress won’t work out a cap-and-trade scheme to limit the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced by U.S. companies.  Just another big government liberal that wants to take your [...]

And if Global Warming Turns Out to be a Myth, So What?
Posted in Economy, Global Warming Hoax Lead Story on 26 August 2008

I recently read a comment on the Internet from a global warming activist that presented that exact same connotation.  If global warming turns out to be a myth, so what?  The narrow-mindedness and intense focus of climate change proponents on one issue, global warming, has the potential to cause massive economic failures globally.  The lack [...]

Six Questions to Ask A Global Warming Hoaxer
Posted in Disputing Global Warming, Global Warming Hoax Lead Story on 16 June 2008

In the six months of this blogs existence, it has become painfully clear that the objective of the global warming hoax is to tax and control.  What’s not so funny about the means of meeting that objective is that it’s based on lies, discrediting the opponent and sheer dodging of the debate.  While Gore says there’s no [...]

The Incredible Hulk and the Climate of Fear
Posted in Global Warming Hoax Lead Story, Hollywood on 11 June 2008

I recently watched a re-run of the television series The Incredible Hulk, starring Lou Ferrigno and Bill Bixby.  In this episode, Bruce Banner attempted to use a radiation chamber in a nuclear plant to reverse the effects of the gamma rays that caused his monstrous condition.  The last thirty minutes of the episode dealt with [...]

Carbon Costs Up as Global Temperatures Sink
Posted in Disputing Global Warming on 10 June 2008

The planet has cooled more than 0.7 degrees in 16 months, which is more than the entire net warming of the 20th century.  There is no rethinking of the science or updates to the models, although it’s pretty obvious to everyone involved that they are wrong.  No admission from the Gore crowd on defeat.  Instead, [...]

But wait!  They are pushing for carbon dioxide emissions, right?  To a point, yes.  But not wholly.  Let me explain.
The current iteration of proposed legislation in the United States [...]
