Trenberth : Only Warm Weather Is Climate | Real Science

Next time it turns cold in Colorado, Trenberth will most certainly go back to believing that weather is not climate. Because he is an expert.

Only A Completely Daft Person Would Forecast An Ice Free Arctic | Real Science

The Arctic Basin never starts melting until day 150, and it stops melting by day 260. That is a maximum of 110 days of melt, and then the sun sets and the ocean starts freezing again. The only way you could get to an ice free Arctic would be to keep the sun up high in the sky until Christmas.

Alarmists need to step up their game and quit acting like complete morons.

The Green Weenie (Me!) Meets the Weekly Winston | Power Line

Of course, four things have changed the scene radically since 2007. First, the case for action on catastrophic global warming has collapsed politically. In the wake especially of “Climategate,” the climateers these days resemble nothing so much as those die-hard Japanese soldiers who sharpened their bayonets in island caves for a decade after Hiroshima, refusing to believe the war was over. This should have been made evident, second, by the collapse of cap and trade in Congress, and the slow unraveling of emissions trading in Europe. News bulletin for greenies: it ain’t coming back. And the third and most obvious difference between 2007 and now is this large thing called a bad economy, which violates the Prime Directive: don’t raise taxes in a recession. Fourth, with the failure of cap and trade, the EPA is going to try to regulate greenhouse gases through the Clean Air Act, which even the EPA knows in its heart of hearts is a hopeless venture. Unlike what we mused about in 2007, current carbon tax proposals would add net new taxes on top of the EPA’s regulatory scheme. As the kids might say, “that sucks.”
