Global warming and nuclear autumn
What is needed right now, and I mean this week, is someone with enough standing to call a halt to this circular firing squad in and around the IPCC. They are still trying to defend their actions, instead of the root science. Rajendra Pachauri is trying to protect his position, not his institution.

Someone with weight needs to say that what has happened is a travesty, and that Pachauri must go and the IPCC reorganised. Someone just like Stephen Schneider. Few others would have the institutional weight to make this statement with authority.
Horrifying examples of deliberate tampering « JoNova
Robert Ferguson, President of SPPI, said: “The entire case for alarm about ‘global warming’ is of course predicated on the assumption that ‘global warming’ has actually occurred. D’Aleo and Watts sampling of horrifying examples of deliberate tampering with the temperature data from all parts of the world raises very serious questions not just about how much ‘global warming’ occurred in the last century but also about whether there was any significant warming at all.
Stupid Himalayan glacier claim was DELIBERATELY fraudulent
The IPCC bosses knew from the beginning where the "information" originated but deliberately covered it up
Big Wind: How Many Households Served, What Emissions Reduction? (A Case Study, Part 1 of 2) — MasterResource
For significant periods of time, no households will be served, as was demonstrated by the UK data. For almost all of the time, the electricity supply will be so unreliable as to be useless. If there were some way to store the wind-plant electricity produced, then some of this would make sense. Even granting such a widely available storage capability, there would be considerations of the relationship between the storage being filled compared to the draw on it, again in real time. Annual aggregations and averages are not a reasonable way to look at the fluctuating performance of industrial-scale wind power.
