Fighting Liberals: Say NO to Climate Change Deniers
Pharyngula a blog written by PZ Myers is falling behind the climate denial blog "Watt's Up With That"

We need all the folks on this blog to make sure that Watt's doesn't win.

I realize that these weblog awards are kind of silly, but the bottom line is that if this climate change skeptic wins it will give some credibility to the nuttiest of the nutty on the right.
Talbyv: Hottest January Day
For all those predicting that temperatures are rising, please note that Tomorrow (14/1/09) is the 70th Anniversary of Sydney's hottest January day. This was before major industrialisation, before every home had a refrigerator, TV, computer, video, gameboy, electrical washing machine. People used hand powered push mowers and very few families had a motor car. Hardly anyone flew around the world. What do you think our CO2 output was then?
...
Not one of the top 20 hottest January days is after 1977 when we really started pumping CO2 into the atmosphere.
Nice headline at Joe Romm's site: "Denier-Industrial-Complex Kooks (DICKs) scream: ‘Czar’ Browner is a ’socialist’!"
Another right-wing feeding frenzy, another opportunity to coin a new acronym [see “Diagnosing a victim of anti-science syndrome (ASS)“]. This was first published by the Wonk Room.
