The Climate Conspiracy Widens

[pjclarke]

The European Geophysical Union has awarded its Hans Oeschger (after whom Oeschger events are named, but you knew that) medal to Dr Michael Mann. The medal honours

'outstanding scientists whose work is related to climate: past, present and future.'

Mann was lead author on the 'hockey stick' study, which we all know from diligent reading of blogs and popular books was a fraud and a delusion. The conspiracy now includes the EGU, the AGU , the AMS , the Nobel Committee and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences .

Where will it end?

Where will it end?

Probably after 500 years of the climate going up a bit, down a bit, up a bit , down a bit with no real net difference at the end

I was reading an interesting article about a route Germany are trying with regard to chemical batteries the other day:
Methane proves a promising 'battery' for clean energy | Environment & Development | Deutsche Welle | 07.11.2011

Sounds interesting. Much easier to handle than hydrogen and from methane the world is your oyster, from burning directly to sending down household gas pipes and on to more complex hydrocarbons, e.g. methanol. Makes more sense than hydrogen in a lot of ways anyway, which is tulip.

You may as well be worshiping a pagan god. No one understands the complexities of the Universe or the complexities of nature. No one knows for example if global warming is or is not desirable, or whether it is man made or part of a cycle. There are snippets of what can only amount to anecdotal evidence based over a tiny number of years - the rest is based on fear and superstition. yet people like you are so crazed and fanatically hyped up about it and so damn sure that anyone would think you were a religious nutter.

Besides, we'll run out of fossil fuels one day anyway.

There are many more worthwhile causes than this to spend time on, such as world deforestation and population increase. Unlike AGW, there is irrefutable evidence that those threats exist.

We also need to bear in mind the flaws in the IPCC, and their reports. There are prominent climate scientists who have been highlighting the politicisation of the process. There's a new book out which is being highly recommended by the likes of Prof. Judith Curry and Dr Roger Pielke, which highlights the contribution of non-scientists from environmental pressure groups such as WWF and Greenpeace.

Comments On “The Delinquent Teenager Who Was Mistaken For The World’s Top Climate Expert” By Donna Laframboise | Climate Science: Roger Pielke Sr.

For those interested in climate science and the debate, probably well worth a read.

Dr Roger Pielke sums up the problem with the next report due out:

The next IPCC report will not be a balanced assessment, but continue to be real conflict of interest with policy advocacy in the guise of a scientific framework.

To be fair, Dodgy, you don't understand the complexities of shoe laces, so the rest of us can be a little more ambitious.

The Climate Conspiracy Widens

Can a conspiracy 'widen'? A plot can thicken and the truth can be stretched...

When you say 'interesting'...

[BlasterBates]

Name three of them.

One of the book's bogus arguments is that it is not possible to be an environmentalist and a good scientist. Membership of Greenpeace is seen as prima facie proof of bias. Just nuts. Why would one refer to an excrutiatingly poor book written by a sole author whose scientific credentials don't extend beyond a degree in women's studies? We have the 133 page report of the Interacademy Council, who recommended some procedural and organisational changes, but who nonetheless concluded:-

You've got 7 years to prove your point and then the party's over.

Warmists say 10 years of non-warming proves nothing. Give them another seven years | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog

...and looking at the NOAA ENSO forecast next year looks like it will be globally cold.

That means you've only got 6 years.
