"I can change your mind" - running commentary | Australian Climate Madness

Anna totally outclassed. Then smears Marc Morano. Hilarious. And tragic. Anna just not interested. "I will only debate a climate scientist" says Arts/Law graduate. "Won't be engaging in debate". Embarrassing, Anna. I'm afraid avoiding debate isn't the answer.

"Alarmed" are worried about social justice. Yep.

Nick calls on Bjorn Lomborg - good choice, Anna picks Zac Goldsmith. Hmm.

Ben Goldacre... uses "denier" in the first 30 seconds. Thinks that the realists have the media on their side - bwahahaha!

Further Comments on debate | ScottishSceptic

it is very difficult to say anything other than: “the global temperature is not incompatible with natural climate variability”.

Extreme Rainfall Events Throughout the Himalayas

With respect to their findings, Nandargi and Dhar write that "to summarize, it may be said that there is an increase in the frequencies of extreme rainfall events from the 1951-1960 decade onwards," but only until "there was a sudden decrease in the frequency of extreme rainfall events in all the four categories in the recent period of 2001-2007, during which time the prevailing monsoon conditions were comparatively weak."

The how and why of climate denial – Opinion – ABC Environment (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Marc Morano delivers a breathtaking torrent of misinformation (although I'm not sure he did take a breath) that ignores entire swathes of evidence. He overlooks the fact that Arctic sea ice has dramatically thinned with the total amount of ice hitting record low levels in 2011. He ignores that global warming is still happening, with our planet currently absorbing heat at a rate of two Hiroshima bombs per second
