Letter to the Editor on global warming alarmists | GORE LIED

If you are going to build on a myth, stretching out the time frame makes a fabrication more difficult to debunk. The real question is, do you believe lies about history or concocted computer models designed to prove a false theory? Anthropologic climate change is worse than junk science. Written records of a planet in constant flux, dating back over 5,000 years, long before man’s footprint was even visible, debunk the theory that man is destroying the climate or even has an influence in its determination.

Response: The myth of the Danish green energy ‘miracle’ - FP Comment

Next time readers see an ad from Vestas inviting them to “Believe in the wind,” they should ask themselves: If wind power has no significant impact on the problem we are trying to solve (i.e., CO2 emissions); if wind power costs two to three times as much as conventional sources of energy; if wind power kills twice as many jobs as it creates through its higher costs (except in the home countries of the major wind turbine manufacturers), then why would any right-minded person accept this invitation? We should also ask our politicians this question.

Cap-and-Trade: The Temple of Enron (James Hansen makes an important political point) — MasterResource

Enron is Exhibit A against Waxman/Markey’s cap-and-trade proposal. Enron was poised to make money coming and going by being the nation’s and the world’s largest market-maker in CO2 permits, and the “smartest guys in the room” were ready to game and game for incremental dollars (remember California?). Enron’s business model, in retrospect, had to do with regulatory complexity, as I note in the introduction to my book Capitalism at Work. Enron gamed the highly prescriptive accounting rules (GAAP), tax system (the corporate tax division was actually a profit center as told in an exposé in the Washington Post.

[A few idiotic] Doctors warn of risks of climate change for the first time - Telegraph

Doctors even fear climate change will have a "psychosocial" effect on health with patients requiring counselling over the fear of global warming and the effects it will have.

Richard Horton, editor of the Lancet, said doctors have been "silent for too long about the importance of climate change to the future of health services".

"It is an urgent threat, it is a dangerous threat, it is immediate and requires an unprecedented response by Government and international organisations," he said.

Doctors around the world are being urged to become advocates for encouraging a "low carbon lifestyle", for example by cycling rather than taking a car. Not only to tackle global warming but obesity, heart disease, asthma, diabetes and other conditions associated with a sedentary lifestyle.

The paper also called on world Governments cut emissions and invest in helping poorer countries to adapt to climate change so that deaths are minimised.
