Negative label 'skeptic' used by media to fight Climategate

It's interesting how the words "skeptic", "naysayer", and "denier" are still bantered around in the liberal press like curse words--negative labels, even after many of the charges of skeptics have now, finally--thanks to the hacker or whistleblower involved, been vindicated and verified.

The press DOES NOT want to admit they've been duped; they DO NOT want to admit that skeptics ARE RIGHT. Same with all the other climate accomplices involved...they know this has killed their boondoggle and, likely, their careers too!

Hence the reason for all the fiery intransigence and obstinacy coming from the global warming faithful the world over.

The malice, mischief and Machiavellian manoeuvrings revealed in the illegally hacked megabytes of emails from the University of East Anglia’s prestigious Climate Research Unit, for example, offers a useful paradigm of contemporary scientific conflict. Science may be objective; scientists emphatically are not. This episode illustrates what too many universities, professional societies, and research funders have irresponsibly allowed their scientists to become. Shame on them all.

***

Dubbed “climate-gate” by global warming sceptics, the most outrageous East Anglia email excerpts appear to suggest respected scientists misleadingly manipulated data and suppressed legitimate argument in peer-reviewed journals.

U.N.'s IPCC Chair Sticks Head in Sand: Climategate

You've got to understand that these people can't just let this go, even when caught red-handed; they are too far invested in this hoax as a reality. If it's not real, ask yourself what becomes of their reputations? Ask yourself what they would all do if Al Gore himself came on the news and said he was wrong (fat chance)? I've written about their reputations before on this blog, long before Climategate broke and proved us skeptics to be CORRECT; to admit it's all a sham and unsupportable by science or empirical evidence is tantamount to saying that their careers are shams too...and THEY ARE. This is why global warming won't go quietly...it will die a horrid death, and many careers and business interests will go down with it.

Al Gore's Oscar, Nobel Prize, and Carbon Credit business? SCAM. The "Green Fad"? SCAM. Countless claimed extinctions blamed on global warming? SCAM. Dead polar bears? SCAM. Countless atrocities blamed on global warming? SCAM. Obama's climate treatises? SCAM. Dr. Hansen's "climate work"? SCAM. Deleted climate data at the Climate Research Unit of UEA? SCAM. Prince Charles' stupid climate predictions? JUST IDIOTIC. United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and their recommendations? SCAM. Liberal news media's NEAR ABSOLUTE support of global warming "consensus"? SHAM and a TRAVESTY against people they should protect. Liberal politicians worldwide who've used this as a means to strengthen their hold on power? SCAM.

This is a worldwide scam and boondoggle that involves many parties, all with different, self-serving agendas. The not-about-to-debate-anyone Al Gore-acle is like the Bernie Maddoff of climate change; he's that culpable in this total rip-off on the people and governments of the world. Congratulations world: You just let a moron con you into giving him millions, a once prestigious award, and an Oscar...all for a stupid, alarmist, error-filled PowerPoint presentation. Didn't you realize he was a doof when he said he 'created' the Internet?

There is "virtually no possibility" of a few scientists biasing the advice given to governments by the UN's top global warming body, its chair said today.

Rajendra Pachauri defended the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in the wake of apparent suggestions in emails between climate scientists at the University of East Anglia that they had prevented work they did not agree with from being included in the panel's fourth assessment report, which was published in 2007.

The emails were made public this month after a hacker illegally obtained them from servers at the university.

Pachauri said the large number of contributors and rigorous peer review mechanism adopted by the IPCC meant that any bias would be rapidly uncovered.

Climategate: UEA to "release data"

One problem, of course. They cannot release the RAW DATA, because it was destroyed. All they have are their manipulated figures--as in manipulated to "hide" cooling using a "trick."

The U-turn by the university follows a week of controversy after the emergence of hundreds of leaked emails, "stolen" by hackers and published online, triggered claims that the academics had massaged statistics.

In a statement welcomed by climate change sceptics, the university said it would make all the data accessible as soon as possible, once its Climatic Research Unit (CRU) had negotiated its release from a range of non-publication agreements.

[From Climategate: University of East Anglia U-turn in climate change row - Telegraph]

BBC Reports on Email Hackers, not Scandal: Climategate

In an unsurprising move, the liberal BBC in the U.K. is reporting about the hackers who swiped the emails--not the damaging content of the emails. Sounds like our American media.

Details of a university inquiry into e-mails stolen from scientists at one of the UK's leading climate research units are likely to be made public next week.

[From BBC News - Inquiry into stolen climate e-mails]

Raw Climate Data Destroyed: Climategate

Yes, that's right. All that the gang at East Anglia's CRU have left are their 'modified' climate figures--those that were subjected to a "trick" to "hide" the decline in temperatures. The original, raw data cannot be inspected by other scientists now, because it was DESTROYED. We're modifying our very social and political systems based on the alarmism of these "scientists," and they TOSS THE RAW DATA ASIDE? What scientist EVER does that? NONE.

This is so openly bullshit that it's not even funny. So, where are the hard questions from our "media?" Our joke of a media?

SCIENTISTS at the University of East Anglia (UEA) have admitted throwing away much of the raw temperature data on which their predictions of global warming are based.

It means that other academics are not able to check basic calculations said to show a long-term rise in temperature over the past 150 years.

The UEA’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) was forced to reveal the loss following requests for the data under Freedom of Information legislation.

The data were gathered from weather stations around the world and then adjusted to take account of variables in the way they were collected. The revised figures were kept, but the originals — stored on paper and magnetic tape — were dumped to save space when the CRU moved to a new building.

Climategate: 'Worst scientific scandal of our generation'

Yep...he said it: The WORST SCIENTIFIC SCANDAL of our generation. The American liberal news keeps ignoring this story (or dismissing it...in one case), but they do so at their own peril. They've refused for years to even give a faint amount of positive coverage to scientists who disavow global warming alarmism. Now, the chickens are coming home to roost...KARMA!

Remember, these are the characters feeding the doomsday scenario to the U.N. via the IPCC, and that body is trying to establish global governance over all our lives in terms of energy production and consumption.

Our hopelessly compromised scientific establishment cannot be allowed to get away with the Climategate whitewash, says Christopher Booker.

A week after my colleague James Delingpole, on his Telegraph blog, coined the term "Climategate" to describe the scandal revealed by the leaked emails from the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit, Google was showing that the word now appears across the internet more than nine million times. But in all these acres of electronic coverage, one hugely relevant point about these thousands of documents has largely been missed. The reason why even the Guardian's George Monbiot has expressed total shock and dismay at the picture revealed by the documents is that their authors are not just any old bunch of academics. Their importance cannot be overestimated, What we are looking at here is the small group of scientists who have for years been more influential in driving the worldwide alarm over global warming than any others, not least through the role they play at the heart of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Climategate May Halt Obama’s Cap and Trade

Another blog entry from the U.K. press (because our own lefty press just IS NOT going there). It won't matter. Fox News and bloggers (like me) will fill the void where our agenda-driven, majority liberal news media continues failing us.

You must go and read THIS ENTIRE post. It's really great, because it shows just how dead this has become. So many in Congress are already on the chopping block over the economy, bailouts, and health care reform. Obama, in my opinion, is a one-term president. He's trying to cram so much down America's throat that they will rebel against his Marxist butt. He's Jimmy Carter, Part II.

Let's see how many in our government are willing to lose their jobs for Thulsa Doom Obama. Bye, bye crap-and-tax.

Senator James Inhofe’s Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works has written to all the relevant US Government agencies, acquainting them with the nature of the e-mails. But the real car crash for Obama is on Capitol Hill where it is now confidently believed his Cap and Trade climate legislation is toast. It was always problematic; but with a growing awakening to the scale of the scientific imposture sweeping the world, as far as the Antipodes, the clever money is on Cap and Trade laws failing to pass, with many legislators sceptical and the mid-term elections looming ever closer.

Gore: 'Sustainable Capitalism'

I've written many times about the global warming cult's assault on capitalism, because oil is the lifeblood of capitalism. Without it, no goods will be made; no goods will get to market; no goods will be good. Don't believe these Marxists who try to hide their intentions in weasel words like "sustainable."

Al Gore's sham has been thoroughly exposed, yet he's not giving up on it. He believes in a form of capitalism--elitist capitalism, where elites like him remain and grow more wealthy while keeping the rest of you surfs dependent on the government teat.

The global financial crisis had its origins in short-term, unsustainable strategies and actions. Before the crisis and since, we (and others) have called for a more long-term and responsible form of capitalism – what we call “sustainable capitalism”. Yet despite our collective best efforts, one year on, the capital markets seem to be reverting to business as usual.

Climategate: Who's Lying About Temperature Trends?!?

The classic leftwing tactic: Accuse the other guy of doing what you just got caught doing. LOL!

Here's my comment to this warmaholic:

Dear Tim, It's amazing how you're telling Drudge visitors they're being lied to when they're just coming to your article--and other news articles--via a simple link on Drudge's site. Dishonesty is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps you need to ask yourself if YOU'RE BEING LIED TO and whether scientists LIKE US are corruptible. Clearly, we are...humans with sometimes base motivations. Global warming IS NOT real. There are many scientists--ostracized ones--who agree that it's not real. Obviously, this entire ClimateGate scandal demonstrates why their voices aren't being heard.

G.W. Denier

Update: A special message to visitors from Drudge: you are being lied to. Global warming is happening and we're causing it, but to avoid dealing with the problem folks are shooting the messenger, attacking the scientists who discovered and reported on the problem. The New Zealand Climate Science Coalition isn't made up of climate scientists, but is just a group of global warming skeptics who gave themselves a fancy title. And they just got caught combining temperature data from different places to get rid of the inconvenient warming trend in New Zealand. If you want to know what the science really says, please read the Copenhagen Diagnosis.

Climategate: 5 Aussie MPs to Resign

For those of you who don't know, an MP in Australia or the U.K. means "Member of Parliament," which is the equivalent of our U.S. Congressmen. I wonder when ClimateGate will kick in here. Our liberal news media knows that if they report honestly and factually here, they will indict themselves and almost every Democrat in office (and even some moderate--dumb--Republicans).

Though the ETS squeaked narrowly through Australia’s House of Representatives, its Senate is proving more robust – thanks not least to the widespread disgust by the many Senators who have read Professor Plimer’s book Heaven And Earth at the dishonesty and corruption of the AGW industry. If the Senate keeps rejecting the scheme, then the Australian government will be forced to dissolve.

For the rapidly increasing number of us who believe that AGW is little more than a scheme by bullying eco-fascists to deprive us of our liberty, by big government to spread its controlling tentacles into every aspect our lives, and scheming industrialists such as Al Gore to enrich themselves through carbon trading, this principled act by Australia’s Carbon Five is fantastic news.

Climategate: Bring Forth the Holy Excuses of Antioch

Now, the buttmunches making up the "consensus" at the center of this scandal--recognizing the deep doo-doo they're now in for blatantly violating scientific ethics--are pulling out the stops to lessen the impact of their leaked, blunt, and honest correspondence, describing all sorts of devious behaviors designed to prop up the global warming myth.

The climatologists at the center of last week's leaked-email and document scandal have taken the line that it is all much ado about nothing. Yes, the wording of the some of their messages was unfortunate, but they insist this in no way undermines the underlying science, which is as certain as ever.

***

But the furor over these documents is not about tone, colloquialisms or even whether climatologists are nice people in private. The real issue is what the messages say about the way the much-ballyhooed scientific consensus on global warming was arrived at in the first place, and how even now a single view is being enforced. In short, the impression left by the correspondence among Messrs. Mann and Jones and others is that the climate-tracking game has been rigged from the start.

Environmentalists in Denial: Climategate

More of the same. Lefties are ignoring what can't be ignored, but that won't stop them from trying. I take issue with the chap below, however. He says that climate change deniers have made wild claims like global warming is over. Ha! I make the claim that global warming NEVER OCCURRED. He doesn't know his deniers very well.

Climate sceptics have lied, obscured and cheated for years. That's why we climate rationalists must uphold the highest standards of science.

I have seldom felt so alone. Confronted with crisis, most of the environmentalists I know have gone into denial. The emails hacked from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia, they say, are a storm in a tea cup, no big deal, exaggerated out of all recognition. It is true that climate change deniers have made wild claims which the material can't possibly support (the end of global warming, the death of climate science). But it is also true that the emails are very damaging.

Lying Scientist Told To Resign: Climategate

It keeps coming: Every day there's another story (and usually from the U.K. media) about this scandal. The American liberal press is refusing to acknowledge that this ever happened; how could they? NBC has completely invested itself in being the "Green Network," fully buying into the climate fad, lock-stock-and-barrel.

Moronic leftwing journalists must be completely confused at this point...they bought into all this BS and never asked questions. Whatever happened to the days when reporters questioned everything instead of just accepting what supposed smart people told them? Frankly, our press will have to admit IT HAS BEEN HAD if it really reports on the facts in these stories, or else the stories prove their culpability in the hoax (no one should be surprised at the NYT's dismissal of Climategate).

Meanwhile, Thulsa Doom Obama carries on as if nothing has happened. We're still heading for certain climate doom in his estimation.

George Monbiot, a leading environmentalist, said Phil Jones should resign from the Climatic Research Unit over leaked emails that appear to show researchers suppressed scientific data.

More emails came to light yesterday, including one in which an American climatologist admitted it was a travesty that scientists could not explain a lack of global warming in recent years.

Climategate Fallout Pours On

Now, the real question is: How long will all the mainstream media outlets--especially the Green Fad network NBC in all its forms--be able to ignore and bury these stories? When will these damaging facts move from the Op-Ed pages and blogs to the front pages where they belong? There's no way to claim 'out of context' in the countless examples of blatant falsification, data destruction, and unethical behavior on the part of these 'consensus' scientists. The NYT (not surprisingly) just accepted one of the researcher's explanations of the use of the word "hidden" as it relates to calculating temperatures.

One wonders whether these 'really smart people' are aware that they've endangered their careers by being a bunch of liars; fortunately, some of them began salvaging their reputations a while ago, because they realized this balloon could only stay aloft for so long.

If you own any shares in alternative energy companies I should start dumping them NOW. The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)

When you read some of those files – including 1079 emails and 72 documents – you realise just why the boffins at Hadley CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be “the greatest in modern science”. These alleged emails – supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory – suggest:

Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.

[From Climategate: the final nail in the coffin of ‘Anthropogenic Global Warming’? – Telegraph Blogs]

Repeatedly throughout the e-mails that have been made public, proponents of global-warming theories refer to data that has been hidden or destroyed. Only e-mails from Mr. Jones' institution have been made public, and with his obvious approach to deleting sensitive files, it's difficult to determine exactly how much more information has been lost that could be damaging to the global-warming theocracy and its doomsday forecasts.

Let the Reckoning Begin: Climategate

ClimateGate. Now these data-manipulating a-holes will have to answer for their lies and unethical practices.

Inhofe Says He Will Call for Investigation on "Climategate" on Washington Times Americas Morning Show

"I said I would discuss the “systematic and documented abuse of the scientific process by which an international body that claims it provides the most complete and objective science assessment in the world on the subject of climate change, the United Nations IPCC.” Now that was four years ago; so we knew they were cooking the science back then, and you’ve been talking about the, you know, what’s happened recently with the bloggers coming up with what they did, what they…"

[From .: U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works :: Minority Page :.]

Lord Lawson, the former chancellor, has called for an independent inquiry into claims that leading climate change scientists manipulated data to strengthen the case for man-made global warming.

Thousands of emails and documents stolen from the University of East Anglia (UEA) and posted online indicate that researchers massaged figures to mask the fact that world temperatures have been declining in recent years. This morning Lord Lawson, who has reinvented himself as a prominent climate change sceptic since leaving front line politics, demanded that the apparent deception be fully investigated.

WSJ: Consensus Scientists Violate Scientific Ethics

Now, the Wall Street Journal is covering the "Climategate" email scandal, where the world seems shocked that these global warming a-holes were trying to stifle debate with their skeptical colleagues (we've known that was happening all along). I hope this is the nail in the myth's coffin, but the lying liars who lie them will keep trying to maintain their climatology grants. As long as politicians and certain media outlets keep accepting this BS as fact, the battle will continue.

The scientific community is buzzing over thousands of emails and documents -- posted on the Internet last week after being hacked from a prominent climate-change research center -- that some say raise ethical questions about a group of scientists who contend humans are responsible for global warming.

The correspondence between dozens of climate-change researchers, including many in the U.S., illustrates bitter feelings among those who believe human activities cause global warming toward rivals who argue that the link between humans and climate change remains uncertain.

Some emails also refer to efforts by scientists who believe man is causing global warming to exclude contrary views from important scientific publications.

Inhofe: 2009 'Year of the Skeptic'

I can only say GO SENATOR INHOFE!!! Thanks goodness for you...you may be the only thinking politician in Washington when it comes to 'manmade global warming.'

"I proudly declare 2009 as the 'Year of the Skeptic,' the year in which scientists who question the so-called global warming consensus are being heard," Inhofe said to Boxer in a Senate speech. "Until this year, any scientist, reporter or politician who dared raise even the slightest suspicion about the science behind global warming was dismissed and repeatedly mocked."

Inhofe added: "Today I have been vindicated."

The Ada (Oklahoma) Evening News quotes Inhofe: "So when Barbara Boxer, John Kerry and all the left get up there and say, 'Yes. We're going to pass a global warming bill,' I will be able to stand up and say, 'No, it's over. Get a life. You lost. I won,'" Inhofe said.

The entire endangered polar bear theory has been debunked (primarily because global warming has been debunked); remember the famous cropped photo of the polar bear on the floating chunk of ice from a few years ago? We were supposed to believe that it was a sad polar bear, because its floating ice boat was melting due to our evil capitalistic transgressions. Then the truth came out. Here, airplanes are again being targeted as the culprit of anti-Marxist evil; meanwhile, the lefty hypocrites continue using their private jets and huge motorcades without hesitation.

It hasn't 'warmed' in over 10 years and scientists are 'baffled' at where global warming went, yet we STILL see complete crap like this coming from the lefty psychos. Why? Because they're losing the propaganda campaign.

Climatologists' Emails: Spurn Denying Scientists' Papers

More on that crazy email leak. Seems that there's no way these idiots can claim their emails were taken 'out of context' when it comes to examples like this. Here, we see open violations of science and extreme examples of what can be found in Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit. These climate scientists prove by their very actions that they're full of crap. Their 'science' is baloney, as they try to ostracize and silence their critics.

In other words--just like Al Gore (their patron saint)--they will AVOID DEBATE at all costs!

"I can't see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report," Jones writes. "Kevin and I will keep them out somehow -- even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!"

In another, Jones and Mann discuss how they can pressure an academic journal not to accept the work of climate skeptics with whom they disagree. "Perhaps we should encourage our colleagues in the climate research community to no longer submit to, or cite papers in, this journal," Mann writes.

"I will be emailing the journal to tell them I'm having nothing more to do with it until they rid themselves of this troublesome editor," Jones replies.

Leaked 'Scientist' Emails: AGW is a Fraud

This will come as no surprise to most readers of this blog, but some of you cult-following, Kool-Aid drinking nutjobs will come up with no end of excuses (e.g., taken out of context, etc.) to cover up this damaging bit--actually damaging pile--of correspondence coming from the 'consensus' scientists who've scared you into believing their lies.

Why do these climate scientists need global warming to be 'real' and for research to continue? Because they like getting paid for their dumb shit. Research grants will keep rolling in so long as politicians--who can also benefit from this mythological religion--can keep the crap rolling along.

But the weather isn't cooperating. It's kind of hard to prop up bull shiza when the temperatures haven't risen in 10 years, while CO2 keeps going up.

Hundreds of emails and documents exchanged between world's leading climate scientists stolen by hackers and leaked online

Hundreds of private emails and documents allegedly exchanged between some of the world's leading climate scientists during the past 13 years have been stolen by hackers and leaked online, it emerged today.

The computer files were apparently accessed earlier this week from servers at the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit, a world-renowned centre focused on the study of natural and anthropogenic climate change.

Climate change sceptics who have studied the emails allege they provide "smoking gun" evidence that some of the climatologists colluded in manipulating data to support the widely held view that climate change is real, and is being largely caused by the actions of mankind.

EPA Employees Silenced for Criticizing Crap and Tax

I bet if they were EPA employees who made videos PRAISING crap-and-tax that the EPA wouldn't have said a thing; the EPA is a political machine that must to find ways to continue being relevant. Global warming is just the kind of nonsense that the EPA needs, just as it is for many politicians and scientists. Boondoggles are hard to come by, and since the term "global warming" has become accepted in the collective consciousness, they've got a good thing they don't want to risk losing.

Laurie Williams and husband Alan Zabel worked as lawyers for the Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, in its San Francisco office for more than 20 years, and they know more about climate change than most politicians. But when the couple released a video on the Internet expressing their concerns over the Obama administration’s plans to use cap-and-trade legislation to fight climate change, they were told to keep it to themselves.

Williams and Zabel oppose cap and trade -- a controversial government allowance program in which companies are issued emissions limits, or caps, which they can then trade -- as a means to fight climate change.

They're good for a chuckle and will really open your eyes to how stupid this has all become (unless you're stupid yourself...in which case you're done).

Effects of climate change have driven women in communities in coastal areas in poor countries like the Philippines to risk dangerous jobs, and sometimes even into the flesh trade.

Suneeta Mukherjee, country representative of the United Nations Food Population Fund (UNFPA), said women in the Philippines are the most vulnerable to the effects of climate change in the country.

“Climate change could reduce income from farming and fishing possibly driving some women into sex work and thereby increase HIV infection," Mukherjee said during the Wednesday launch of the UNFPA annual State of World Population Report in Pasay City.

Baffled Climatologists Wonder Where Global Warming Went

Article speaks for itself; we've beat the La Nina and low sunspot theories to death on here. Meanwhile, myth-propping politicians and scientists continue on with the pipe-dream, as if they haven't noticed the 10-year drop in temperatures. If you're a Kool-Aid drinking moron, you're baffled right now. If you're like me--a denying scientist--you're not very baffled. We've seen BS before...we'll see it again: See Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit.

Question: If temperatures started dropping in 1998, why is the media just now getting around to admitting it? Because they don't want to admit they were fooled.

Global warming appears to have stalled. Climatologists are puzzled as to why average global temperatures have stopped rising over the last 10 years. Some attribute the trend to a lack of sunspots, while others explain it through ocean currents.

At least the weather in Copenhagen is likely to be cooperating. The Danish Meteorological Institute predicts that temperatures in December, when the city will host the United Nations Climate Change Conference, will be one degree above the long-term average.

Otherwise, however, not much is happening with global warming at the moment. The Earth's average temperatures have stopped climbing since the beginning of the millennium, and it even looks as though global warming could come to a standstill this year.

Dr. Ian Plimer: CO2 not causing global warming

Another scientist sticks his neck out at which the 'consensus' will saw away. Hate to tell you folks who've been brainwashed by the leftist media, but there are thousands more like him who are keeping the mouths shut to avoid wearing the scarlet letter.

So, do you believe this professor? Or Al Gore? If your answer is Al Gore...why? Are you dumb, or something?

Professor Ian Plimer, a geologist from Adelaide University, argues that a recent rise in temperature around the world is caused by solar cycles and other "extra terrestrial" forces.

He said carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, widely blamed for global warming, is a natural phenomenon caused by volcanoes erupting.

The conceit and arrogance of 'consensus' liberal scientists and politicians will just make Americans more angry; they'll take that anger to the voting booth.

The Dutch government said Friday it wants to introduce a "green" road tax by the kilometre from 2012 aimed at cutting carbon dioxide emissions by 10 percent and halving congestion.

"Each vehicle will be equipped with a GPS device that tracks how many kilometres are driven and when and where. This data will be then be sent to a collection agency that will send out the bill," the transport ministry said in a statement.

Brits to be given personal 'carbon allowance'

I have but one thing to say to you liberals who will allow yourselves to be guilted into such malarky: Enjoy the government control over every aspect of your lives; you want it, you'll get it! Liberal governments will take every ounce of control you cede to them.

Lord Smith of Finsbury believes that implementing individual carbon allowances for every person will be the most effective way of meeting the targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions.

It would involve people being issued with a unique number which they would hand over when purchasing products that contribute to their carbon footprint, such as fuel, airline tickets and electricity.

Give Up Meat and Save Earth

Yeah, we've heard this one before. Good luck getting Gore to give up his steaks, you liberal goons. Meanwhile, I can't wait to have a cheeseburger for dinner; I can't wait to convert some carbon in my organic carbon body. LOL!

People will need to turn vegetarian if the world is to conquer climate change, according to a leading authority on global warming.

In an interview with The Times, Lord Stern of Brentford said: “Meat is a wasteful use of water and creates a lot of greenhouse gases. It puts enormous pressure on the world’s resources. A vegetarian diet is better.”

LHC 'Being Sabotaged from the Future' ?!?

Just remember everyone, these are the same sort of "scientists" who, acting as part of the "consensus," proclaim global warming as a foregone scientific conclusion. LOL! Their giant piece-of-crap billion-dollar machine isn't working as advertised, so they resort to this excuse? I guess they stand nervous in front of their investors. Hey, they've got lots of excuses to explain away the failure of the global warming myth (e.g., revisionism via La Nina).

Wouldn't this mean that Higgs particles are sentient and are, therefore, halting their own discovery? This is science? I truly hope the world will awaken from its trance and understand that these so-called brilliant people aren't always brilliant. Some subjects...like particle physics and LONGTERM CLIMATE PATTERNS...will resist our pathetic attempts to understand them completely.   

Scientists claim the giant atom-smashing Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is being jinxed from the future to save the world.

In a bizarre sci-fi theory, Danish physicist Dr Holger Bech Nielsen and Dr Masao Ninomiya from Japan claim nature is trying to prevent the LHC from finding the elusive Higgs boson. Called the "God particle," the theoretical boson could explain the origins of mass in the universe — if physicists can find the darn thing.

The scientists say their math proves nature will "ripple backward through time" to stop the LHC before it can create the God particle, like a time traveller who goes back in time to kill his grandfather.

GASP!: Brown warns of 'catastrophe'

Another liberal politician making annoying predictions about what will befall us if we don't except THEIR intervention for something that IS NOT PROVEN. If you need more fear, read the GASP! series and the warmlist.

Gordon Brown warned today of a catastrophe for the planet if action to tackle climate change is not agreed at forthcoming UN talks and said that global warming could be more costly than two world wars and the Great Depression.

NASA: Doomsday Won't Be in 2012

Irony? I think so. NASA, whose scientists regularly predict global warming doom, is calling another prophecy false? Instead of slamming the Mayans, NASA should ask itself whether its officially-sanctioned predictions of global warming catastrophe are a bit of the pot calling the kettle black.

There's been a lot of speculation and fear that the end of the world could coincide with the end of the Mayan calendar on Dec. 21, 2012. Sony's doomsday film "2012," set for release next month and based on the prediction that the world will end in three years, has put a spotlight on the theory.

A NASA scientist is trying to quell those fears and has condemned the film and the company's viral marketing campaign, The Washington Post reports.
