Climate Common Sense: Labor Heavy Predicts Carbon Calamity!

The important conclusion of our study is not that the data sets we analyze display small sea-level decelerations, but that accelerations, whether negative or positive (we reference studies that found small positive accelerations), are quite small. To reach the multimeter levels projected for 2100 by RV requires large positive accelerations that are one to two orders of magnitude greater than those yet observed in sea-level data.
The Climate Sceptics (TCS) Blog: Selling the Carbon Tax in Never land.

BBC, Prof Steve Jones and the push for censorship « Autonomous Mind
The public has been becoming increasingly sceptical of the AGW industry’s claims. As such many people suggested the AGW crowd would become increasingly desperate as their unsubstantiated claims fall apart and therefore would attempt to seize for themselves control of the coverage of the subject. Professor Steve Jones is the man the BBC turned to in order to advance that aim. He has served his purpose. And has done so at our expense. The BBC. It’s what they do.
