Costa Rica’s Energy Paradise: Comment on Tom Friedman (Not everywhere can be a playground for the rich) — MasterResource

However, it still takes a lot of conventional energy, mostly jet fuel, to take tourists like Mr. Friedman to Costa Rica so that they can marvel at the pristine environment, and that is not likely to change for a long time.

Obama Science Chief Exposes The Fallacy Of Global Warming -- Joe Bastardi

It is almost inconceivable that something this shallow in thinking could come from someone trying to convince you that co2 is responsible for the ills of our world. First of all, over the past 30-40 years, we have cleaned the air so much of pollutants that there are very few smog days here in the US. Billions have been spent over decades cleaning So2 out of the air. Now we want to put it back into the air to facilitate global cooling? What does this mean. That if we had left it there in the first place, we wouldnt have the problem that we do. Now let me explain to you how stupid, and that is the only word for this, this reasoning is. Suppose you are trying to get every person on the planet to believe co2 is the reason for all the ills in the world today. Why would you tell them that shooting pollutants into the air, the same ones you cleaned out, would cool the earth? All that says is co2 is not the cause, its cleaning the air that is the cause ( which by the way it is not, and neither is co2) But you see what a ruse this is. And how shallow the thinking has to be, the arrogant assumption that you and I are too stupid to say, heh wait a minute, if pollutants can cool the planet, why did we clean the planet and how can co2 have been the cause if the very thing we cleaned up is needed to cool it down.

To an audience of rent-seekers, Obama's "science" advisor continues to promote the greatest scientific fraud of all time

John Holdren, President Obama’s top scientist, presented the cold, hard facts about global warming to a receptive audience at this week’s Clean Power: Building a New Clean Energy Economy forum at MIT. “We are experiencing dangerous human interference now. Bigger disruptions are coming,” he said.

Tackling climate change will take more than an Apollo project and more than a Manhattan project, he said. I can’t say I’m confident we’ll see anything on that scale.

The room was filled with major Massachusetts stakeholders in the green economy: energy startup executives, state and local officials, and MIT leadership. Not to suggest that everyone in the room was thrilled with the Waxman-Markey Bill — judging from the questions and murmurs in the room many were not.
