EPA’s Tailoring Rule: Temporary, Dubious, Incomplete Antidote To Massachusetts v. EPA’s Legacy of Absurd Results (Part 1) — MasterResource
The Tailoring Rule is an eye opener, because it reveals, or rather confirms in spades, that the Supreme Court’s decision in Massachusetts v. EPA has created an almost bottomless well of “absurd results” — disastrous consequences that EPA can avoid only by poaching legislative power and amending the Act.
Peter Kellner | YouGov, 12/14/09: Climate change is low priority for most Britons
YouGov has conducted a detailed survey, for the Left Foot Forward website, on British attitudes to climate change, as world leaders prepared to go to Copenhagen for the final, crucial days of the climate change summit. Our results suggest a mounting reluctance for Britain to take tough, immediate action to help avert global warming – a trend can be reversed in the near future only if a binding agreement is reached at Copenhagen; and even then, the public will need to be persuaded that other countries will deliver on their side of the bargain.
Getting the Facts About the Global Warming E-mail Scandal
The general consensus is that Climategate is largely hype, but one aspect that can’t be ignored is that some people seem to be buying it. A recent CNN global warming poll indicates that the number of Americans that think global warming is a problem is in decline. While several factors are likely contributing to this shift, the e-mails can’t be helping. So even if you agree with the Union of Concerned Scientists [shouldn't they be "concerned" about massive scientific fraud?] that the whole fiasco was a “manufactured controversy,” the way these controversies and subsequent media frenzies have the potential to cause actual shifts in thinking is still a significant concern.
American Thinker: The Intellectual Dishonesty of the Democrats
What struck me the most about this meeting was Gore's complete inability to utter a sentence addressing his life's work. The former Vice President, Nobel Prize laureate, and Academy Award-winning producer standing before us was a moron, unable to articulate a simple comeback to address all that he has stood for since leaving office. He could have simply ignored us and kept walking, as he does with reporters, but by stopping and standing there dumbstruck, he looked like a fool.
American Thinker: Climategate and the Migrating Arctic Tree Line
These types of "errors" and "omissions" seem to be indicative of the entire "Global Warming" investigation conducted through, or in collaboration with, Dr. Jones. Perhaps the best conclusion to come to is that the entire body of work compiled by the IPCC is tainted and therefore unreliable for any policymaker.
