But But Manbearpig
A great scientist named Roger Revelle had Al Gore in his class at Harvard and the Global Warming campaign was born. Revelle tried to calm things down years later, but Gore said Revelle was Senile and refused to debate. John Coleman documents the entire story and shows how our tax dollars are perpetuating the Global Warming alarmist campaign even though temperatures have not risen in years and years.

What is AlGore afraid of?????
I really want to know why AlGore will not debate anyone about Manbearpig. Is he afraid that his little documentary will have been thoroughly debunked in a debate???? Or is he afraid that people will call out his hypocrisy about Manbearpig, flying around in jets, SUVs and having a mansion that uses more energy than most other households??? Or will they expose his Carbon Footprint scheme???
I guess we will never know,he will not debate anyone.
Report: Democrats Refuse to Allow Skeptic to Testify Alongside Gore At Congressional Hearing
Washington, DC — UK’s Lord Christopher Monckton, a former science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, claimed House Democrats have refused to allow him to appear alongside former Vice President Al Gore at a high profile global warming hearing on Friday April 24, 2009 at 10am in Washington. Monckton told Climate Depot that the Democrats rescinded his scheduled joint appearance at the House Energy and Commerce hearing on Friday. Monckton said he was informed that he would not be allowed to testify alongside Gore when his plane landed from England Thursday afternoon.
“The House Democrats don’t want Gore humiliated, so they slammed the door of the Capitol in my face,” Monckton told Climate Depot in an exclusive interview. “They are cowards.”—Climate Depot
Is Manbearpig Dead????
Funny thing happenes when looking at all the Chicken Littles predictions of Gloom and Doom from Manbearpig, they usually do not come true. And in the latest data to some out, hurricanes are at a 30 year low. But how can this be???? Weren’t we suppose to have Katrina anfter Katrina hit New Orleans and the East Coast until it was all washed away by hurricanes????? We wer all going to die if hurricanes, even up here in St Louis.
Well, I for one am no convinced they all mighty “experts” know what the hell they are talking about. It seems to me that almost every prediction has not come true or is based off of models that do not take into accountthe many variables that go into climate.
Global and Northern Hemisphere Tropical Cyclone Activity [still] lowest in 30-years
Tropical cyclone (TC) activity worldwide has completely and utterly collapsed during the past 2 to 3 years with TC energy levels sinking to levels not seen since the late 1970s. This should not be a surprise to scientists since the natural variability in climate dominates any detectable or perceived global warming impact when it comes to measuring yearly integrated tropical cyclone activity. With the continuation (persistence) of colder Pacific tropical sea-surface temperatures associated with the effects of La Nina, the upcoming 2009 Atlantic hurricane season should be above average, as we saw in 2008. Nevertheless, since the Atlantic only makes up 10-15% of overall global TC activity each year (climatological average during the past 30 years), continued Northern Hemispheric and global TC inactivity as a whole likely will continue.
Beware of the burping worms
Another addition to the Manbearpig hysterics. Now we have to worry about burping worms warming up the Earth, along with cow farts.
Burping Worms May Contribute to Climate Change
By Andrea Thompson
Aquatic animals that feed on lake and stream bottom sediments burp out small amounts of nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas, a new study finds.
While the biological emissions from these critters pales in comparison to the nitrous oxide emitted by fossil fuel burning, their contribution could increase as more and more nitrogen-rich fertilizer runs off into lakes, streams and seas, the authors of the study said.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is more commonly known to anyone who has sat in the dentist’s chair as laughing gas.
In the atmosphere it is a powerful greenhouse gas, packing about 310 times the punch as the same weight of carbon dioxide (though carbon dioxide is still the bigger driver because there is much more of it).—Fox News
Global Warming Scare
A Climate Crisis a la Gore
Another email I have got is about the new book, A
Climate Crisis a la Gore.
Carbon emissions have no discernable effect on climate, but our
gullibility nets promoters of this “crisis” billions per year.
Meanwhile they change nothing of their own lifestyles, though they also live on
the planet they claim we are destroying. Claiming to want to save us from our
folly, they seek to strip away our freedoms while destroying our economy. While
the climate itself mocks their so-called linkages, and our economy is already
on the edge of collapse, a Democratic Congress is still pushing for carbon cap
legislation. What will it take to bring this farce to an end?
Your website leads me to believe we share the concerns about this
attempt to sell out our country for profit and power. Would you help me promote
a book I have written examining this hoax? It is intended to make readers angry
over being played for patsies. If enough people read it, it would create a
public backlash against that legislation, but through my own efforts, I have been
unable to sufficiently publicize this work. Would you also pass this e-mail on
to all your peers you think might agree and help?
The book is entitled “A
Climate Crisis a la Gore” and is organized as follows:
- Introduction
– the motivation behind the assembly of this information for public
use.- Part 1 – Excerpted
ideas from Mr. Gore’s book, The
Assault on Reason. regarding the proper and reasonable way to
enter an argument or evidence are used to critique his film, where
apparently he used all the assault techniques he claims to deplore- Part 2 – A claim
by claim analysis of Mr. Gore’s documentary, An Inconvenient Truth. These are
evaluated with simple logic, claims elsewhere in the documentary; Mr.
Gore’s excerpted written principles of reasoning, and scientific
research and findings regarding the subjects of his claims.- Part 3 – A
rather cynical discussion and disclosure of players and special interest
groups creating the perception of a global climate crisis. The history of
the movement is examined, motives behind involvement, dollar amounts of
profit already being reaped by promoters, and what they stand to gain if
America
enacts carbon legislation.- Conclusion –
The coming economic storm resulting from enacting this legislation and a
plea to readers to contact legislators demanding such laws be reconsidered.
Excerpts can be reviewed and the book ordered at Amazon.com by entering
the title, ISBN# (978-1-4196-8684-9) or by following the link http://www.amazon.com/Climate-Crisis-Gore-perception-warming/dp/1419686844/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1202424474&sr=8-1
If you are willing to inform your readers of its contents and availability, an
informed (and angry) population of voters might be a real, and maybe the only, check
and balance system capable of stopping Congress.

It’s Not Cool Being Green in the UK
Looks like the Brits have jilted AlGore.
What would Kermit think of this article today in the Times of London?
Suddenly being green is not cool any more
As the credit crunch bites, environmental policies are being ditched. But oddly we are doing better at saving the planet
Only a year ago, according to MORI, 15 per cent of those polled put the environment in their top three concerns. That figure has dropped by a third to 10 per cent this month. Now that people are fighting for their own survival rather than their grandchildren’s, they put crime, the economy and rising prices at the top of their list.
According to Andrew Cooper, director of the research company, Populus: “There is a direct correlation between how people perceive the economy and the importance they place on the environment. When times are tough people resent paying more to salve their conscience.” This means that fewer people are now buying organic chickens from smart supermarkets when they can pay £3.99 at Lidl. With all food prices rising, the organic market is being credit-crunched. Demand for it grew by 70 per cent from 2002 to 2007; now it has stalled, according to the consultancy Organic Monitor.
The vast new organic Whole Foods Store on Kensington High Street in London is so quiet you can hear the cheese breathe in the specially designed glass room. Meanwhile the demand for takeaway pizzas and McDonald’s has risen as people find the cheapest way to eat.
When David Cameron became leader of the Conservative Party he said that green issues were at the top of his agenda. His slogan for the local elections last year was “Vote Blue, Go Green”. But in the past few months he has realised that voters have lost the appetite for their greens.
He has only given one environmental speech since Christmas. Once he used to talk about putting a £3,000 windmill on top of his house. Now the message is not about conserving the planet but preserving his bank balance. He wears catalogue clothes, grows his own vegetables and holidays barefoot in Britain because it is less extravagant, not because he is trying to reduce his global footprint.
In fact, when the Tory leader’s bicycle was stolen a week ago, the message of the story was not how green he was for riding his bike, but how broken our society has become when a politician finds his bike nicked from under his nose.
Boris Johnson was the first to realise that the tolerance for green taxes may have peaked. When he became Mayor of London, he dropped plans to charge a £25 congestion fee on gas-guzzling cars.
The Tories have quietly been reviewing many of their green policies. A range of measures designed to penalise motoring and other polluting activities has been put on hold in case they alienate families struggling to pay their bills. A proposal to tax the highest emitting cars up to £500 more than the greenest vehicles has been quietly shelved, as has the plan to raise taxes on short-haul flights. Instead George Osborne, the Shadow Chancellor, has promised to cut tax on fuel when oil prices rise.
Gordon Brown has also stopped discussing his solar panels and compost heap in Scotland and is trying to dissociate himself from local council rubbish taxes – even though they have been driven by central government plans to put up landfill charges.
Both parties are looking at ways of rewarding people for being green rather than penalising them for throwing out their yoghurt pots with their teabags. Mr Osborne, in a speech last month, admitted: “When people are feeling the pinch, we need to make it pay to go green. Instead of being fined for not recycling, households should be paid for recycling.”
When Barack Obama first decided to run for the presidency, he embraced the green cause. Al Gore’s film, An Inconvenient Truth, about global warming had just become the biggest grossing documentary in history and Mr Gore had won the Nobel prize. But recently Mr Obama has been talking more about thrift than trees. Instead of showing off his recycling skills, he explains that his children don’t receive Christmas or birthday presents.
It’s not just the economic downturn that has harmed the green order. People have become wary of environmental causes that can turn out to do more harm than good. They don’t want wind turbines marching across Britain’s moors when nuclear power stations can do more to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They worry that washing and bleaching all those non-disposable nappies may be damaging the ozone layer, that the massive incentives for biofuels have distorted the world food market, and that green taxes are actually stealth taxes.
But paradoxically, just as Britain is turning its back on the environment, the country is finally becoming greener. Fewer people are moving house so they are buying fewer new white goods such as washing machines and fridges. They may not be queueing up for £9 organic Poilâne bread, but for the first time in a decade they are discarding less food. They buy less impulsively and think more carefully before their weekly shop. Children are wearing hand-me-down uniforms rather than new ones made in sweatshops.
Bottled water sales have fallen. Garden centres have reported a 10 per cent rise in the sales of vegetable seeds in the past 12 months. People are saving money by growing their own potatoes and carrots. They are turning off their central heating for a few more months of the year and ditching their second car rather than buying an electric runaround. And instead of carbon-offsetting their holidays, they are simply going on fewer of them.
It’s the downturn that has made greenery look unappetising – but it may yet prove to do more than anything to save the planet.

The Envoronmentalists are coming
Yes,they are coming to my home town for a Forum on Manbearpig (Global Warming). You can go and get badgered by a bunch of so-called experts on Climate tell you we are all going to die in 10 years again. I am sorry that I do not believe in this crap that has been foisted on us. All of the “Computer Models” done by any of these so-called experts have been completely wrong, and with the temperatures holding steady for the past 10 years, why are we even having these forums. Every day now we hear of more and more scientists that do not drink the cup of Mambearpig and do not think we are all going to die a fiery death due to the mythical creature.
Maybe I would start believing them if they can tell me what the temperature and precipitation is going to be next week or the Disciples of the Goracle and the Goracle himself would actually do what they preach.
Forums in metro-east address global warming
BELLEVILLE —
A free public forum on
global warming is scheduled for 6 to 7:30 p.m. Aug. 27 at the Southwestern
Illinois College PSOP Building, 201 N. Church St.The town hall meeting will be part of the summer statewide Illinois
Environmental Council-sponsored series that aims to convene local residents,
elected officials and community groups to discuss how soaring gas prices, asthma
rates and shifting gardening zones are related to climate change.Another free public forum is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Aug. 12 at the National
Great Rivers Museum, 2 Lock and Dam Way in Alton.“We face a host of problems related to global warming, but most people
haven’t made the connection,” said Jonathan Goldman, executive director of the
environmental council. “These public forums will help everyone better understand
the links and how we can begin to change things with good legislation and
prudent, long-term solutions.”Aur J. Beck, an energy efficiency and renewable energy installer, will speak
at the Belleville meeting. He operates Advanced Energy Solutions in Carbondale
and helped create the Illinois Renewable Energy Association and the Southern
Illinois Center for a Sustainable Future.
The Wheels on the Manbearpig bus are coming apart
More from the "deniers" of Manbearpig. Roy Spencer’s great testimony to the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. The Models and conclusions from Manbearpig theorists do not add up to actual observations.
Testimony of Roy W. Spencer before the
Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on 22 July 2008A printable PDF of this testimony can be found here
I would like to thank Senator Boxer and and members of the Committee for allowing me to discuss my experiences as a NASA employee engaged in global warming research, as well as to provide my current views on the state of the science of global warming and climate change.
I have a PhD in Meteorology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and have been involved in global warming research for close to twenty years. I have numerous peer reviewed scientific articles dealing with the measurement and interpretation of climate variability and climate change. I am also the U.S. Science Team Leader for the AMSR-E instrument flying on NASA’s Aqua satellite.
