Three Questions: For Anyone who Supports Obama, Man-Made Global Warming, or Abortion.

by Steve MacDonald February 21, 2014

Thumbnail image for Three Questions: For Anyone who Supports Obama, Man-Made Global Warming, or Abortion.

1) Does President Obama represent your values? 2) Is there anything that could disprove global warming and if so what? 3) If your mother had aborted you immediately after conception (or any point thereafter), you would have been denied every day from that day to this; how is that not “a life?”

Jeanne Shaheen Said Global Warming Would Affect Our Winter Tourism. She Was Right!

by Steve MacDonald February 21, 2014

UL The ski industry in New Hampshire contributed a record-breaking $1.15 billion to the state’s economy in the 2012-13 season, according to the Institute for New Hampshire Studies at Plymouth State University. And it’s only February. I wonder is Senator Shaheen would like to amend her prognostication from six years ago?

California Drought NOT Caused by Global Warming

by Steve MacDonald February 18, 2014

The Green Goblins are out doing their chicken-little imitations about the drought in California. They are blaming the mystical exhaled spirits. The invisible Green gods that inhabit the sky. The gods are angry and they are punishing us by making the globe hotter, and it will keep getting hotter (even though global temperatures are still […]

Support a Fellow New Hampsherite Fighting For Free Speech–Support Mark Steyn

by Scott Morales February 4, 2014

Sometimes I promise myself to do something really important just for it to then whirl away out of consciousness and into the windy spirals of daily life. Then upon later remembering it, I cringe from shame and embarrassment. Today was one of those days. What happened? All through January, I noticed a particularly stark absence […]

But “Climate” Only Started 1000 Years Ago

by Steve MacDonald January 27, 2014

There is a longstanding prejudice within the progressive, liberal, Democrat cabal towards religion. They love to sneer at the idea of intellectual backwater, bitter-clingers who quote the Bible. “But the Bible says the world is only 4000 years old,’ and we know that’s not true.” And yet these are the same intellectually superior people who […]

Communism is The Answer – “It’s Settled Science!”

by Steve MacDonald January 17, 2014

Thumbnail image for Communism is The Answer – “It’s Settled Science!”

Global Warming has never been about warming. It is a scheme to use “energy” and the environment to direct behavior toward a socialist system of central planning, even if that “system” is contrary to the stated objective of climate alarmism. If you need proof of that take a look at this. United Nations climate chief […]

Polar Vortex Could Be A Sign Of Global Cooling -Leading Scientist Predicts Equivalent of Maunder Minimum

by Steve MacDonald January 9, 2014

The “Maunder minimum” is a fancy-pants sciency phrase for a little ice age. A little ice age is a long period of weird weather where it mostly just gets colder for longer over a series of consecutive decades. These events are predicated on oscillations of total solar radiance, and solar or sunspot activity, which can […]

Faith In The “Non-Falsifiable Hypothesis” of Global Warming Leads to “Settled Science Gore-tex”

by Steve MacDonald January 8, 2014

Back in 2008 NH Democrat Jeanne Shaheen scared people with promises that Global Warming was real and that it would put an end to New Hampshire Winters–and our touristy-like winter wonderland of commerce. It was settled science. I heard that, didn’t you hear that? A few years later, after 15 years of flat or declining […]

Polar Vortex “Excuse” Makes Senator Jeanne Shaheen Look Like a Moron

by Steve MacDonald January 7, 2014

Warming creates warming. Warming creates cooling. NH Democrat Timmy Horrigan informed us (in comments) that Global Warming Theory predicts more snow (which will come as a surprise to Senator Jeanne Shaheen). And now we’ve got this newly imagined polar vortex thing to explain the cold temperatures that none of those computer models from all those […]

Record LOW Temperatures, Too!

by Mike December 18, 2013

Can you say “Ice Age“? Prior to Skip’s piece on record snowfall amounts across the Continental USA, I had previously noted September temperatures in August, and had been watching the thermometer and mentally comparing with Ghosts of Christmases Past. I scanned prior averages and records for NH, and guestimated around 10 deg F lower than […]

Large Bovine Herds Responsible for Medieval Global Warming

by Scott Morales December 15, 2013

Okay, that’s not true. Nobody’s making that claim , at least not yet. But I expect something just as ridiculous will spurt forth from the warm mongers to explain away the Swedish study that found that the Earth was warmer during the Roman and Medieval periods. It’s tough these days to be a warm-monger- sky-is-melting-climate-alarmist. […]

Panel of Scientists says UN Study Retreats, Misleads, and Misinforms A panel of 50 scientists from 15 countries says the newest report from the United Nations on climate change is filled with concessions that its past predictions were too extreme and contains “at least 13 misleading or untrue statements and 11 further statements that are […]

Data Point – What happened to all the Hurricanes that Global Warming was to bring?

by Skip October 27, 2013

So, why the bust? “The 2013 Atlantic hurricane season looks set to go down as a big washout, marking the first time in 45 years that the strongest storm to form was just a minor Category 1 hurricane. There could still be a late surprise in the June 1-Nov. 30 season, since the cyclone that […]

The NIPCC Report on Climate – A Non Political Finding By People Not Looking For Government Handouts

by Steve MacDonald October 21, 2013

This would be the fourth report, but given that the IPCC has jumped another shark in its pursuit of “research” that explains its conclusions, we need to post this. The report, which cites thousands of peer-reviewed articles the United Nations-sponsored panel on climate change ignored, also found that “no empirical evidence exists to substantiate the claim […]

Was Al Gore Anywhere Near South Dakota Last Weekend?

by Steve MacDonald October 10, 2013

Four people died. An estimated 75,000 cattle were killed. Records were broken. Sounds like an environmental disaster. And it was only a few days ago. You didn’t hear? One would think the death of 75,000 cows by upwards of five feet of snow might get some national attention, but as one blogger observed, it has […]

They’re almost laughable – socialists and global warmists

by Skip October 4, 2013

First on the Socialists – an observation from El Rushbo: Let me give you an interesting observation on William F. Buckley. It’s a quote, but it’s more an observation. Buckley pointed out that in the ’30s we were told we had to “collectivize the nation,” i.e., big government. Go socialist. We had to collectivize the […]

Michael Barone – On Faith and Global Warming

by Steve MacDonald September 26, 2013

Michael Barone has a piece in the Washington Examiner whose thrust is to address the UN panels historic downgrading of past apocalyptic rhetoric regarding mans so-called impact on global climate. We’ve apparently been given a 17 year waiver from the universe, something the ‘war’mists call a pause, a pause that conservatives note better explains the […]

Duped College Kid Plans 40 Day Expedition to South Pole To Increase Awareness of….Climate Change

by Steve MacDonald September 25, 2013

Let me be clear. I think it is awesome that this kid wants to break a record and increase ‘awareness” and I think we need more of these adventurous sorts in every age group, but will he be increasing awareness of his preconceived notions about the climate or educating us on how what he sees […]

Hurricanes and Global Warming

by Steve MacDonald September 23, 2013

Two weeks and then some after writing about how the 2013 hurricane season has been a dud, it continues to ba a dud despite dire predictions by ‘experts’ of an above average year. I has actually been a below average year, so far. While there is still time for the number of storms to pick […]

Sudden Reversal For Warmists – The Arctic Didn’t Melt!

by Mike September 9, 2013

Recently, Steve pointed out that an expedition to measure the loss of Arctic Ice was forced to turn back when their Ice Breaker captain told them there was too much ice to proceed safely! Last year, Steve noted that the Antarctic was accumulating record amounts of new ice, even as smaller losses at the north […]

Arctic Watch Group Abandons Expedition And 10 out of 10 Polar Bears are on Ice

Some ice watchers who are committeed to observing and reporting the environmental affects of “climate change” on arctic ice ran into a bit of a problem. Severe weather conditions hindered our early progress and now ice chokes the passage ahead. Our ice router Victor has been very clear in what lies ahead. He writes, “Just […]

Forecast For Global Warmists: Cloudy, With A Chance Of Cosmic Rays

by Mike August 31, 2013

As Steve pointed out, it seems that the amount of solar radiation reaching the Earth’s surface is greatly affected by minute particulate matter in the atmosphere, and the cooling trend that the scaremongers were so exercised about in the ’70s was replaced by a warming trend when there was less soot and pollution – Who […]

Oh Look! A Cooling Trend

This was compiled using global satellite data. No heat islands. Best gauge of global temperature trends over long periods of time. The longest trend (purple) is flat. The last full decade (green) flat with a slight drop near 2010. The last ten consecutive years (blue) are in decline. And it is no coincidence that this […]

Data Point – Number of 100 degree Readings at all US HCN Stations

by Skip August 28, 2013

Democrats keep saying that they follow the Science; a large part of the scientific process is looking at the data. Then interpreting it. With two STEM degrees, I think this interpretation seems to fit the data: “This summer, the US has experienced the fewest number of 100 degree readings in a century. The five hottest […]

Farmers Almanac – well, here is some supporting data

No, the Farmers Almanac prediction for this winter (which is lent more than a little credence in these parts) is not using sophisticated sensors, sats in space, or high level math to have declared that we all ought to have our woolies cleaned and ready. Watts Up With That? is one of the heaviest trafficed […]
