Shell Canada’s flagship $1.35-billion carbon capture and storage project at its Scotford bitumen upgrader moved a step closer to reality this week with the release of a federal environment assessment.

The only thing it doesn’t do is justify such a stupid activity as CCS…

Climate Science Malpractice – The Promotion Of Multi-Decadal Regional Climate Model Projections As Skillful | Climate Science: Roger Pielke Sr.

If a company developed a drug for the treatment of a disease but did not do clinical tests, it would not be prescribed by reputable physicians. Indeed, there are claims by pill companies that promote health benefits, yet the Federal Drug Administration requires adding

“This statement has not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease”?

Then it happened (the strange thing).  He told me that, though he was still keen to save Mother Earth for future generations by recycling envelopes, he confided with me that he and many of his chums thought global warming was a pile of boloney.  He told me we just leaving an ice age (which of course is wrong, but I thought it was rude to correct him). 

The bloke swam before my eyes.  Here was a bearded greenie, willing to give up his precious evenings for the cause, and even he didn’t swallow the nonsense about climate change.  As I said good-bye and closed the door I was tempted to agree with Al Gore and the bigwigs at the IPCC … the debate is over.
