Access To Birth Control Is A Fundamental Component Of Climate Survival | ThinkProgress
Researchers have found that empowering women to reduce unplanned pregnancies is one of the most cost-effective ways to combat greenhouse pollution, as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson discussed at the Durban climate conference last December:
In addressing climate resilience, Robinson stressed the importance of focusing on health and burden impacts of climate change. One of the keys is access to reproductive health for women.

That man is the Danish physicist Henrik Svensmark, who seems to have discovered the most important factor that actually regulates Earth's climate, and who is quietly in the process of proving it.
Nicola Scafetta Comments on “Solar Trends And Global Warming” by Benestad and Schmidt | Climate Science: Roger Pielke Sr.
There are several other gratuitous claims and errors in Benestad and Schmidt’s paper. However, the above is sufficient for this fast reply. I just wonder why the referees of that paper did not check Benestad and Schmidt’s numerous misleading statements and errors. It would be sad if the reason is because somebody is mistaking a scientific theory such as the “anthropogenic global warming theory” for an ideology that should be defended at all costs.
Guest lecturer says global warming probably not human-caused - Campus - The Horn
Fred Singer, a world famous and controversial figure in the realm of climate change science, said Tuesday at a campus lecture he does not believe the rising level of CO2 in the atmosphere is causing global warming, a point of view that raised many skeptical questions.

Singer’s hour-long lecture was followed with about a half hour of questions, many which questioned his conclusion that CO2 is not a major global warming player and that the temperature has been increasing in recent years. Stavana Strutz, a PhD candidate in ecology, evolution and behavior at UT, took the most confrontational manner with Singer and accused him of leaving out data that conflict with his conclusion.

“How do you justify leaving out data in your analysis after 2000? How do you justify not including the trends from 1850 up to 1978 in your warming analysis trend?” she asked Singer.

Strutz, who crunched global temperature readings to see the warming trend for herself, said she came to the lecture to represent an alternative voice to Singer’s point of view.
Why is it that climate realists dare to take tough questions from a live audience, while Mann/Hansen/Gore don't?
