This is who we are - cold, but not complaining | StarTribune.com

I don't like to complain about the cold, because it's like getting a job at a slaughterhouse and whining that your white shirt is just ruined at the end of the day.

We live in Minnesota, and half the year our weather is either cold now or probably cold tomorrow. You know what you're in for, soldier; suck it up.

Senior IPCC member has global warming skeptic threatened by UN “security” « Sister Toldjah

Unlike the closed-minded nutjobs who have wrongly declared that the “science is settled” and who are scared sh*tless to actually debate the issue with skeptics, McAleer is fearless when it comes to challenging conventional wisdom on so-called “man-made” global warming. Not long ago he challenged the Goracle on a few global warming myths and as a result his microphone was promptly cut off by environmental “journalists” (read the story and watch the video here).

What the critics call "Climategate" continues to heat up the dispute in Congress and on the Internet, however.

Here's a look at the key issues

Humanity gathers in 'tribal barbecue' under one roof, talking about the future of planet | Environment | The Free Press

It's a "tribal barbecue," said another veteran, Peter Goldmark of the U.S. Environmental Defence Fund.

"We're talking about which businesses will grow, which investments will make sense, how we'll feed ourselves, what kind of energy we'll produce," he said. "This is the work of years and decades."

Tom Borelli : Al Gore and the Wizards of Climategate - Townhall.com

Like Dorothy’s dog Toto, the posting of emails and documents on the internet from the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit has pulled back the green curtain on the secret world of leading climate scientists, exposing a disturbing pattern of apparent scientific misconduct.

PJTV: Bruce Bawer reports from the Copenhagen shadow conference. Best part is when Tom Harris defends the skeptical scientists and demands the United Nations release the evidence that its climate-change claims are based on.

Copenhagen climate change blah blah – Bad Science

“CO2 isn’t an important greenhouse gas”, “Global warming is down to the sun”, “what about the cooling in the 1940s?” says your party bore. “Well,” you reply, “since the last time you raised this, I went and checked, and it turns out that there were loads of suphites in the air in the 1940s to block out the sun, made from the slightly different kind of industrial pollution we had back then, and the odd volcano, so that’s sort of been answered already, ages ago.”

Many US Farmers Skeptical About Climate Change | USA

Costs aside, you'll find a lot of basic skepticism at the Farm Bureau and among farmers like Gwen Pitt that human pollution is responsible for climate change.

Pitt says, "My feeling on climate change is, I don't know that what we do as Americans or as people is what's causing most of what's happening. I think nature has its own course."

Al Gore Refuses to Discuss 'Climate Crisis' with John Stossel - WSJ.com

The Nobel Laureate only goes on TV programs where he knows he can say whatever he wants, regardless of accuracy, and never get challenged.
...
According to an e-mail message sent to Stossel's producers on November 23, "the growing influence of the climate crisis message and the demand on Mr. Gore's time" made it impossible for the former Vice President to attend.

Of course, Gore's busy schedule didn't prevent him from being interviewed by CNN and MSNBC on Wednesday, nor did it stop him from appearing on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" just two days before he declined Stossel's invitation.

Deseret News | Global warming activists need to use science

The revelation of a trove of damaging e-mails among leading scientists in the global warming community raises a troubling question in this regard: If the science is so straightforward, why on the warming Earth would scientists need to fudge the research to prove it?

Or, to quote from some of the correspondence in the emerging Climategate controversy, why would there be any need to use a "trick" to "hide the decline" in temperatures suggested by some data? Why would there be an urgent need to "delete any e-mails you have had" about data for the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or to orchestrate a response to deny information requests because "IPCC is an international organization, so is above any national FOI (freedom of information act)?"
