Alarmists Raise Possibility That 1930s Temperature Records Will Be Further Mangled | Real Science

By contrast, since June 13 2012, [Oklahoma City] temperatures have averaged 94F – eight degrees cooler than the same period in 1936. Holocaust deniers attempt to rewrite the history of the 1930s, and thus have much in common with Hansen et. al.

How is Creating Green Jobs is Like Banning Tractors to Create Farm Jobs? | Clearing the Air | NCPA.org

If we want to create more farm jobs (after all the percentage of farm jobs in the economy has fallen dramatically in the last century), we could ban tractors. Think of all the jobs we’d create for farm workers!

Of course, the cost of farm products would rise dramatically, making it more difficult to buy food, especially for low-income families. But do we want to create jobs or not?!

If you’ve done the math by now, you may have figured out that I am paying my green-energy producing bike riders only 10 cents a day – the average rate for generating one kWh of electricity in America. So, let’s pay them $10 a hour. The cost per kWh would rise from 10 cents to $1,000. This might make it more difficult for manufacturers to buy the electricity, but it hardly seems fair to demand our bike riders earn less than a living wage, and wealthy investors like Warren Buffet can certainly afford to pay a bit more for electricity.

1913 – The Hottest Summer Of All | Real Science

According to Hansen, every year since 2000 has been hotter in the US than 1913, and he claims that 2011 style heatwaves were impossible below 350 PPM. Clearly he has no clue  what he is talking about.
