Excerpt:
The carbon dioxide content of our atmosphere is a result of ocean temperature, much more than a cause.

8. Bravo to Montana Representative Dan McGee, who minces no words in this article. We really need more politicians with the courage to speak clearly about the global warming fraud.

9. Deutsche Bank makes some highly dubious predictions about climate change and tourism here:
Deutsche Bank economist Philipp Ehmer, who presented the research at ITB in Berlin, said: "Climate change will significantly reduce the tourism potential in many regions. There will be more losers than winners. Many regions will experience a cut in tourism revenue."
I'm doubtful that this economist has any special insight into global temperatures in 2030. The globe is probably warmer now than it was in 1850 or 1976; where has this warming "significantly reduced" actual tourism?

10. If current solar energy technology is so great, why does it need such heavy subsidies? Check this out:
“We have set the tariff at a higher amount of 44 cents – more than triple the market rate - to stimulate the solar energy market and encourage greater uptake by residents and businesses.”
