Fulfilling Environmentalist Fantasies, by Executive Order. « American Elephants
There has been no significant warming of the planet since 1995, including the year claimed to be the warmest in 1998. The sun has gone quiet with no sunspots, and the earth has cooled in the last five years, warming and cooling as it has always done.

The natural cycles of warming and cooling suggest that we are in for some seriously cold weather in coming years. The illusion that wind and solar can produce enough power to keep us warm is beyond reason. And greenies would quickly turn up to protest (and take legal action against) new power grids, extensive solar arrays, or large wind farms. They want the Earth to be pristine, the new Eden, and will fight to achieve their fantasies.
Letters: Climate change is too big an issue to leave to the experts | Environment | The Guardian
Climate change is, indeed, such a huge issue that we cannot afford to leave it to elites and scientists. Now that the issue has arrived high on the political agenda, we should not try to push it back into technocratic circles.

Power and Control: Global Warming Will Make People Dumber
The danger is obvious. If the planet stays warm enough for long enough the average IQ in the cooler climates will decline.
Climate Change [Scam] Ponzi Scheme - Forbes.com
Every generation so far has expected the next generation to absorb its carbon investment into the atmosphere. Speaking not just as a scientist but as a new father, I'd wager that the next generation--my son's generation--faces a Madoff-like moment when the system collapses, the environment collapses, and very likely we'll have a whole load of civil unrest and other nasty consequences.

Funny enough, we understand the global climate system better than we understand financial markets.
