C3: Another Example of Why Public Radio & TV Can't Be Trusted On Global Warming Reporting
Read here. A blog maintained by the Minnesota Public Radio uses a graph to visually suggest that global temperatures are relentlessly rising, along with CO2 emissions, as the climate models have "accurately" predicted. It's a powerful image that unfortunately is totally disconnected from today's reality. This image, on the left below, shows a temperature record that ends way back in 1990's and provides no clue as to actual relationship between CO2 and global temperatures for past decade. It's obvious that the public radio meteorologist who authored this blog post has an agenda that does not include sharing the actual scientific truth, as the below graph on the right reveals.

Astonishing falls in the fertility rate are bringing with them big benefits
Energy Secretary Steven Chu on home weatherization: [Not only can you save a few bucks, but as an added side benefit, you can prevent all of our grandchildren from roasting in CO2-induced hellfire!]
Long before I learned about the risks of climate change, I was fanatical about energy efficiency because I’m cheap.
