Christopher Monckton - Yet another “moment of fateful decision”

The truth: Al Gore knows full well that he is not telling the truth. In October 2007 a High Court judge in the UK ruled that his fanciful film, An Inconvenient Truth, depicted “an Armageddon scenario that … is not based on any scientific view”. Yet Gore deliberately persists in repeating the errors listed by the judge in that case, who had ordered the UK Departments of the Environment and of Education to circulate corrective guidance to schools before pupils were allowed to be exposed to it. There are now serious discussions afoot to lodge complaints against Gore to the federal financial and legal authorities, in that he fraudulently talks up the imagined “climate crisis” in the hope that he and his “green” investment corporation can profit by the baseless alarm that his falsehoods generate. If that was his hope, it was vain. In the current financial crisis (which, unlike the climate “crisis”, is real), so-called “green” investments have fallen in value nearly twice as far as all other investments. Certainly, it is a serious matter that Gore continues to attempt to profit at the expense of the gullible by peddling falsehoods specifically identified as erroneous by a High Court Judge, who, unlike most of Gore’s audience, had been compelled to hear both sides of the case and had decided that Gore’s side was in at least nine material respects erroneous.
“Moment of fateful decision”: Twenty years ago, the UN’s climate panel said that humankind had “only ten years to avert climate disaster”. Today, Gore says we have “only ten years”. This Messianic tone is calculated to divert his audience from the seldom-reported but readily-verifiable truth, which is that, as Figure 1 shows, for seven years the planet has been cooling...

Global warming my colder-than-a-well diggers-arse!

I'm writing this as we sit on the tarmac in Vancouver awaiting a "de-icing" so we can get going and eventually conclude this Iditirod-like sojourn through Western Canada.

I'd like to get Al's take on why the average temp in Edmonton was -30, so cold that the hydraulics on our plane froze up. Yup, minus 3-0!...
