  • Fight to stop HAARP from heating and terraforming the world with chemtrails and scalar waves and then blaming the climate change it on carbon dioxide so they can get a carbon tax paid directly into the coffers of the oil companies that push for it behind the scenes while pretending to oppose it so naive environmentalists get behind it and consequently work for your own country's destruction and policies that have already caused millions of children to starve to death.

  • @pennilesshippo

    What about EISCAT? What about Sura (SIHF)? Who was responsible for starving millions of children to death before any of these facilities entered operational state? Perhaps you should rethink your ad hoc hypothesis.

  • Climate change chief says sorry for hot air claim over melting glaciers

    Choo Choo Charlie apologizes, thats golden

  • @Thisawareness

    Looks like you are unwilling to retreat from your position of irrelevance. Thats pretty fascinating, indeed.

  • Sorry Marxist warm-mongers

    The UN's climate science body has admitted that a claim made in its 2007 report - that Himalayan glaciers could melt away by 2035 - was unfounded.

    The admission followed a New Scientist article that revealed the source of the claim made in the 2007 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was not peer-reviewed scientific literature but a media interview with a scientist conducted in 1999

  • @Thisawareness

    This is irrelevant too...

    GLOBAL WARMING COULD EXPLAIN WHY NORTHEAST IS SEEING MORE, AND FIERCER RAINSTORMS

    The Northeast is seeing more frequent "extreme precipitation events" in line with global warming predictions, a study shows, including storms like the recent fierce rains whose floodwaters swallowed neighborhoods and businesses across New England

  • AP gets glacier melt right

    Oh here we go again. Another overblown story on global warming

    But wait.

    Whats this?

    Paragraph 5: The parks glaciers have been slowly melting away since about 1850, when the centuries-long Little Ice Age ended. They once numbered as many as 150, and 37 of those glaciers eventually were named.

    Hmm.

    That means the glaciers at Glacier National Park were melting for 60 years before the park was founded in 1910.

  • Scientists call for better way to do climate report; errors tarnish Nobel Prize-winning effort

    A steady drip of unsettling errors is exposing what scientists are calling the weaker link in reports on global warming

    The flaws — &the erosion they've caused in public confidence — have some scientists calling for drastic changes in how future UN climate reports are done. A push for reform comes on top of a growing clamor for the resignation of the chairman (Choo Choo Charlie)of the IPCC

    SCIENTISTS INVESTIGATE ECUADORS RECEDING GLACIERS Andean glaciers are losing volume at an unprecedented rate, with some declining by 40% over the past 50 years. At more than 5,000m (16,400ft) high, tropical glaciers are particularly sensitive to a changing climate.
