Consensus-Shattering “Bild” Professor Writes: “Climate Science…Dogmatic From The Start…Holds No Water”!

Al Fin: Rethinking Climate Doom in Germany: Chaos in Climate Camp

We are supposed to be willing to relinquish control of our economies and our lives to a cabal of fudgy computer modelers and their kleptocratic bureaucracies. We are supposed to risk the backbone of industry -- energy and power -- on green schemes of big wind and big solar, which are clearly unable to reliably and affordably support modern power grid demands. We are supposed to be willing to hand over hundreds of billions of dollars for "climate reparations" to the third world on the basis of little more than hand-waving and bombastic claims of doom. And we are supposed to do all that based on faith in people who consistently refuse to provide transparency into their methods and data.

More people are waking up. In the end, it is likely that there will be a reckoning.

Missing Heat 3 – Implications For Policymaking « The Unbearable Nakedness of CLIMATE CHANGE

If models are not useful in a decadal timescale, such as they can predict a strong warming for a period of minimal or even no warning, then what use is there for models? What government (apart from North Korea…) would make it difficult for people to heat up their homes in the next decade with the explanation that is going to be warm in 2070 anyway?

People do not average-out their lives across decades or centuries: each and every one of us have to go through each and every day first.

If I freeze to death today at -10C, I will not enjoy the warmth of July at +30C even if the average is +10C, perfectly compatible with human life. The same can be said of plants and animals. If I plant an olive tree in my London garden, it will die of cold in February even if the yearly average is in theory just enough to make olive trees survive in the open.

Inhofe: Only one candidate addresses the four major issues « Hot Air

Yesterday I had the chance to spend some time with Senator James Inhofe (R-OK), the conservative stalwart who has spent the last several years trying to fight off attempts from members of both parties to impose a ruinous cap-and-trade system to control energy production and usage in the US.   He now has a book coming out at the end of the month, The Great Hoax, in which he discusses his fight against global-warming alarmists and the real motivation behind the UN’s IPCC efforts — to gain control of an independent revenue stream that would make Turtle Bay completely unaccountable to its member nations.  With more and more climate-change scientists abandoning the so-called “consensus,” Inhofe’s book comes at a perfect time to put AGW on ice, and in the full interview, he gives us an advance look at the book.
