Being a blogger skeptical of global warming, I bring a half-dozen or so news articles, opinion pieces and videos to the site every weekday. To get this information, I scan a couple of hundred RSS posts, emails and websites each day to find the latest happenings in climate change. Many of these news sources are global warming activist blogs because they sometimes contain little gems that portray the sheer idiocy or hypocrisy of the environmental left. Since the inception of this blog, I’ve picked up on a …

Great graphic from Gateway Pundit (link below). In addition to news of Barack Obama considering Al Gore for Climate Czar, the October-November temperature ranks graphic for the United States is shown. Must of the country is either near normal or below normal. With two straight years of global cooling, the timing of Obama’s election to the Presidency is perfect for the global warming movement as they now have all of the administration in place to enact tough climate change policies and increase our tax dollars, even when …

And here I thought the global warming movement couldn’t get any more creepy. The Greenpeace foundation has resurrected footage of the late John Kennedy and placed it into an online video (click link below to view video at Anthony Watts’ site) as a promotion on fighting climate change. This latest movement from Greenpeace, called Energy [R]evolution, is one that wishes to make standards even tighter than those in the Kyoto Protocol. Among those standards, Greenpeace wants to eliminate all coal-fired power plants and use unproven and expensive …

Hit them hard and hit them young. Mary Doerr saw Gore’s fictional documentary An Inconvenient Truth at Stanford University and decided to start a group, Inconvenient Youth, to indoctrinate teens on the global warming movement. In conjunction with Disney, teens across the country will be able to hear Gore’s message across the country. Disney concerts will also carry the green message.

It seemed for a while that the global warming activists had the upper hand on us over the summer.  Even after foot riots broke out across the country as the price of consumables jumped significantly and shortages popped up around the globe, the pressure was still on from environmentalists everywhere to invest in green technologies.  The price of oil didn’t help matters at all; I’m sure climate change advocates across the globe were salivating as they watched the price of oil climb to $140+ per barrel.  It certainly seemed that, …

Europeans are dragging their feet when it comes to global warming, according to a recent poll of 30,000 citizens across 30 countries. Four out of 10 said they didn’t have enough information to know how to help fix the climate crisis while three quarters felt industry wasn’t pulling its weight. Thirty-one percent said they’ve done nothing to help fight global warming while sixty-one percent had. Could a combination of higher taxes and apathy stop the global warming movement in its tracks?

WIth Hurricane Gustav dealing a glancing blow to New Orleans, the city won’t, at least for now, experience an event similar to Hurricane Katrina in 2005.  With Katrina being the poster storm of the modern global warming movement, I wonder where the global warming activists are with the latest round of tropical storms.  There have been Hurricanes Bertha, Fay, Gustav and now Hanna (recently downgraded to a tropical storm) so far this year that have been contenders for threats to the mainland United States.  Gustav only made the Democrats suddenly …

British Coal-fired power plant company Drax has had its profits plunge by almost half as it now has to pay carbon credits for being the largest single carbon polluting station. Drax spent 107 million pounds this year under the European emissions trading scheme when carbon allocations were reduced. The company paid about 11 million pounds last year. So now we know that the target of the global warming movement is big industry and their objective is to run them out of business.

(Hat tip to Paul).  Earlier today I covered a Telegraph article describing some exciting new technology that allows for carbon dioxide to be extracted from the atmosphere.  It’s a potential win-win for those of us who want to continue to drive our gasoline-powered automobiles as well as for the environmentalists that see carbon dioxide as the main culprit in the fight against global warming.
As with every solution posed by a non-environmentalist, however, this one too has been dismissed by the climate change crowd.  You think it would be easy.  Carbon …

Global warming is now causing glaciers to grow, according to this article at Read More: NewsBusters.org.  Simply laughable, I say.  Now think back to all of the tall tales spun by Al Gore and his global warming crowd.  Global warming causes floods, drought, increased hurricanes, increased tornadoes, unbearable heat and an intensity of storms.
I’ve said time and time again on this blog that the planet simply isn’t cooperating with the global warming movement.  The environmentalists say the poles are melting, and Antarctica puts on a record ice growth show.  They say …
