Column - Live Green before you vote it | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog

...Fine, if that’s what you want for yourself. But, please, before you vote to inflict this on the rest of us, first try living as the Greens prescribe and see if it truly suits even high-minded you.

Examiner: What are your beliefs about what is happening to the Earth's climate?

J.C. Natural variability is still the major driver of the climate changes that create challenges for society.

(I can hear the shrieks of horror all the way here in Alabama from California, my home state.)

Light-bulb goose chase - Washington Times

...I climbed up my ladder, took it out, took it back and drove out of my way to a small-business electrical shop. There, I found a knowledgeable clerk who told me about the government takeover of light bulbs. He had no 100-watt spots, either. We both surmised that this probably was part of the Al Gore plan to save the planet and fill some pockets with billions of dollars.

Talk becomes heated over climate change

"In the early 1990s I was a climate activist -saving trees and telling people about the value of planting trees to offset CO2," Mr Watts said.

"But in 1996 something changed my way of thinking."

That something was a survey of the USA's climate stations, which revealed that just 10 per cent met quality standards and that many of the results that were recorded were compromised.

Mr Watts said that since this had been discovered and remedied the results revealed that temperature changes over the last 100 years had been minimal.
