I wrote an earlier post about the list of scientists-that believe climate change is natural-being compiled by Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma. Well, the list is growing. In fact, Japanese scientists are on the brink of rejecting all the IPCC findings.
“Dr Maruyama said yesterday there was widespread scepticism among his colleagues about the IPCC’s fourth [...]

The stimulus bill is more expensive than the Iraq and Afghanistan war combined.
“As a nation, we got into this mess by spending and investing money that didn’t exist. We won’t get out of it by doing more of the same.” Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK). That is why it is called a bubble. There’s nothing of [...]

David Evans worked in the Australia Greenhouse Office from 1999 to 2005 and wrote the carbon accounting model that tracks Australia’s compliance with the Kyoto Protocol. When he started his job back in 1999, he thought the evidence for man-made warming was pretty good. Now he says this, “We have not found any actual evidence that [...]

Battery-powered cars are the rage at this year’s Auto Show in Detroit and everyone knows why. A government bailout has a lot to do with it, but quite simply, these electric cars are supposed to save the world from catastrophic global warming.

I wish I could cite the scientific source, but I heard on CNBC yesterday that global temperatures actually decreased in 2008. Where’s the Time’s cover page article on this?

From the New York Times:

Sorry this is kind of long.
I am pretty tired of subsidies and mandates for alternative energies. Think about it. The govt is paying part of the price for alternative energy and it is still more expensive than oil and gas that the govt is taxing the crap out of (anyone know how many cents per gallon [...]

I have read quite a bit on the subject of global warming, I mean climate change. I don’t buy into the idea that the Expeditions, Escalades, and Tahoes of the world are responsible for it. Consider the fact that there were apparently multiple ice ages before mankind ever lit a fire. In [...]
