Missteps By Climate Scientists Threatens Climate-Change [Scam] Agenda - NewsFlash - mlive.com
"There is a sense that something's rotten in the state of the IPCC," said Richard Moss, a senior scientist at the Joint Global Change Research Institute at the University of Maryland, who has worked with the panel since 1993. "It's just wildly exaggerated. But we need to take a look and see if something needs to be improved."
...
"What's happened here is that there's an industry of climate-change denialists who are trying to make it seem as though you can't trust anything that is between the covers" of the panel's report, said Jeffrey Kargel, a professor at the University of Arizona who studies glaciers. "It's really heartbreaking to see this happen, and to see that the IPCC left themselves open" to being attacked.
Offshore wind farm developer scaling back plans | Muskegon News - - MLive.com
WEST MICHIGAN — Norwegian developers are in the process of cutting their proposed Lake Michigan Aegir Offshore Wind Farm in half and moving it further from the Silver Lake State Park shoreline.

American Thinker: Wind Energy's Ghosts
Some say that Ka Le is haunted -- and it is. But it's haunted not by Hawaii's legendary night marchers. The mysterious sounds are "Na leo o Kamaoa"-- the disembodied voices of 37 skeletal wind turbines abandoned to rust on the hundred-acre site of the former Kamaoa Wind Farm.
...
The ghosts of Kamaoa are not alone in warning us. Five other abandoned wind sites dot the Hawaiian Isles -- but it is in California where the impact of past mandates and subsidies is felt most strongly. Thousands of abandoned wind turbines littered the landscape of wind energy's California "big three" locations -- Altamont Pass, Tehachapi, and San Gorgonio -- considered among the world's best wind sites.
...
Waxman-Markey seems dead, and Europe's southern periphery is bankrupt.  But the wind-subsidy proposals being floated in Congress suggest that American political leaders have yet to understand that "green power" means generating electricity by burning dollars.
The Inquiry Secretariat « Climate Audit
The Muir Russell Inquiry is conspicuously silent on the staffing of their inquiry – in my own experience, the person who actually does the work often has as much, if not more, influence on the results than the suits who sit on the committee. Who is the secretary of the Muir Russell Inquiry? One looks in vain at their webpage for an answer.
Boulton’s Climategate Associates « Climate Audit
And now the Hegerl reconstruction turns up once again as the Boulton reconstruction – said by Boulton to be “independent” of the other hockey sticks.
- Bishop Hill blog - Was there a recording of Phil Jones?
Sources have told me there was a recorded interview and it was decided at high level not to use it because Jones didn't come across very well.
