Climate not right for parcel strategy - POLITICO.com Print View
Exhausted Democrats may like President Barack Obama’s suggestion of tackling energy and climate change “in chunks” over the next two years after failing to get a comprehensive package across the finish line.

But they probably know better.

The Reference Frame: Why climate change deniers should be blown to bits

So the opinions of Mr Jones just leave me puzzled. There is not a glimpse of an argument that I could recognize as a rational argument. And there is no glimpse of values and priorities that I could expect from someone who may deserve to be called an investor. Are the "new investors" supposed to be offended by every sign of the human economic activity? How is it supposed to work? For all practical purposes, Mr Jones belongs to a different species.
Comment of the week – counterpoint to Fuller on Cuccinelli | Watts Up With That?
At the very least, the University of Virginia and/or Michael Mann appear to be liable to investigation and prosecution for the violation of laws relating to the FOIA release of the e-mail evidencing Michael Mann’s involvement in the handling of $466,000 of state grant funds. There is more than ample evidence that scientific fraud is a common enough crime to warrant investigations, and convincing evidence of at least some violations of law with respect to FOIA disclosures. Scientists are not yet privileged with the immunity needed to commit FOIA violations and scientific fraud with complete immunity from investigation and prosecution. let the Attorney General represent the citizens of Virginia and safeguard their taxpayer monies and their right to the freedom of information guaranteed by written laws.

Copenhagen Goals Met And Far Exceeded! | Real Science
By the year 2050, we can expect it to warm less than 0.2C additional. The Copenhagen goals have been met and exceeded by an order of magnitude.

So where does Hansen get his 2.0C/century from? It is called “cherry picking.” He finds the steepest slope in his graph and tells Congress that is the long term trend. If he worked in the private sector, this type of shoddy work would probably be called “termination.”
