Australian Climate Madness: Obama in Wonderland

Sorry in advance for not buying into the whole Obama thing, but WTF? This is all just hot air. "Roll back the spectre of a warming planet"? Playing God already? Has your science adviser not told you that the planet has been warming and cooling for 4.5 billion years? Wait, it's John Holdren, he wouldn't have.

And "restore science to its rightful place"? What, you mean, uncorrupted by politics and self-interest, as it currently is thanks to AGW alarmists like Gore and Hansen? That would be a good thing.

And as for solar and wind power, dream on, and watch your economy die.

Empty words from an empty suit.

A Boon for Global Warming - David Freddoso - The Corner on National Review Online

Just based on the 500 to 600 private jets that came to today's event, you can bet that the carbon footprint for this inauguration more than makes up for the conservation efforts by Democrats on Capitol Hill—probably for years to come. But throw in all of the buses that are idling along Independence Avenue today, and we might actually have warmer weather by the end of the week.

Wind Watch: Vestas investigating Spanish executives for fraud

Current and former executives at the wind turbine producer’s Spanish subsidiary are accused of fraud.

Wind turbine maker Vestas has been defrauded for around 90 million kroner by employees of its Spanish subsidiary Vestas Eólica, according to a company press release.

Vestas indicated that former and current Vestas Eólica executives had succeeded in whitewashing millions through shell companies partly or wholly owned by the employees themselves. In addition, payments were made on invoices for maintenance and other services never performed.
