EDITORIAL: Chu'd out - Washington Times

Global warming, renamed “climate change” to downplay the embarrassing absence of actual warming, is an article of faith, not a product of science. It appeals to utopians who believe human beings are defiling an otherwise pure planet. The idea is to impose restrictions on conventional power sources and to favor antiquated sources of energy like windmills - as if reversing the effects of civilization will somehow restore Earth’s equilibrium. For those who buy into this, Solyndra was just a temporary setback.

Mr. Obama used his Australian visit last week to reaffirm his adherence to the global warming credo: “I share the view of … most scientists in the world that climate change is a real problem and that human activity is contributing to it, and that we all have a responsibility to find ways to reduce our carbon emissions.” As he did so, China was wooing TransCanada with an offer to buy the oil that Mr. Obama refused when he blocked construction of the Keystone XL pipeline the week before. While Mr. Chu covets China’s trendy energy subsidies, Beijing has the good sense to pursue real fuel sources.

From such thin stuff are scares made

ClimateGate FOIA grepper! - Email 5303

  [Phil Jones] know there are climate change deniers trying to malign some of the research going on.

They do not write any of this in the scientific literature, only on right wing blog sites.

All the climate scientists I know though are fully behind the conclusions of the last IPCC

Report in 2007. There is no doubt the world is warming and will continue to warm.
