New Home for Former Vice President? - Neil Cavuto | Your World - FOXNews.com
[ERIC BOLLING, GUEST HOST] My point there, sir, was, and the reason why I asked them to make those full-screens is, 30 years ago, we worried about global cooling. Now we're worried about global warming. Is this not just the global cooling and warming over the course of 30-year periods?

INHOFE: Eric, you can go there and look at the cycles. There certainly have been four cycles since 1885.
Climatesense-norpag: IPCC Scientific Malfeasance.
The most egregious case goes to the heart of and in fact destroys the entire AGW paradigm. The key part of the science is in section WG1 8.6 which deals with forcings, feedbacks and climate sensitivity. The conclusions are in section 8.6.4 which deals with the reliability of the projections.It concludes:
"Moreover it is not yet clear which tests are critical for constraining the future projections,consequently a set of model metrics that might be used to narrow the range of plausible climate change feedbacks and climate sensitivity has yet to be developed"
...
Those of us interested in objective science should try to see that the 8.6.4 conclusion gets as much exposure as possible. It deserves to be on the front page of the NY Times, The Guardian quoted by the BBC and read into the Congressional record in the USA.

Dear Dr. Page, I have gone through your email of 21/04/2008 in considerable detail and I have also done some background research on the issues that you have raised. At this stage I would like to acknowledge your message, and will see what actions are warranted as a follow up. With kind regards, Yours sincerely, R K Pachauri
Our westerly winds have gone west - Telegraph
Instead, the winds have come blasting down from the north and north-east, bringing perishing conditions from the Arctic and Siberia. Frozen birds have no doubt been crying, but not in a way that would delight the poet.

And it's not just this year. It was similar – if not so bitterly cold – last winter.
...
Back in 1996, this pattern prevailed for more than a year, and I tried to find out why. Some experts tried to persuade me, even then, that it was down to global warming. But another scientist convincingly denied it. His name, I see from my records, was Dr Phil Jones.
Do we want to ignore climate change and risk losing all this? - Telegraph
There is a growing conviction [according to who?] that the cost of ignoring climate change will be far greater than of tackling it now, writes Geoffrey Lean.
...
Given the amount of evidence [what evidence, specifically?] pointing to a serious level of danger, the onus is on the sceptics is to show that the risk is virtually non-existent.
