Jet-setting elites and politicos tell us the world is in danger. CO2 is choking the atmosphere. Cheap, abundant energy is to blame. And if we do not act soon, the earth will reach a tipping point of no return. Again. No, I meant now. Okay, in x number of years. Not those years, these years.
Temperatures in New Hampshire are expected to hit close to 100 degrees this weekend before tailing off to more seasonal weather. The Warmists will be all aflutter, so this seems like a good time to point out this little fact: Arctic sea ice is growing above the 30-year average.
Nothing says “global warming” like unexpectedly cold temperatures. That’s why they rebranded is climate change and then climate chaos and then super random weather that’s your fault, no matter what. And it matters, especially to the freighters trapped in arctic sea ice that’s not supposed to be there.
Imagine an animal rights activist telling you that black bears eating trash in New England neighborhoods were signs of global warming. It’s actually a sign of people leaving trash out and bears discovering how much easier it is to find food. But that’s not how the narrative works.
The irrefutable hypothesis of Global Warming has undergone some interesting evolutions in the decades since it’s “discovery.” By discovery I mean, the opportunity to use the weather to raise taxes and grow global government. By evolution I mean the necessary name-change gymnastics intended to keep the long con from collapsing.
The Danish Meteorological Institute’s most recent data shows Arctic Sea Ice Extent rapidly approaching the 1981-2000 mean. Rapidly. But if you Google “Arctic Sea ice 2018” you will find a series of headlines on the subject of the 2018 arctic minimum. I didn’t search the annual arctic minimum. In the absence of other details “minimum” was … Read more
Global Warming theory claims that carbon dioxide generated by man-made activity is dooming the planet. The solution is to let the government use your money to pay “scientists” to produce “results” that support this conclusion so politicians can raise taxes and expand government intervention to address the “problem.” The problem with the problem is not just that … Read more
The Ice-Free Arctic narrative continues to struggle as both expert, and armchair predictions come up “short” again and again. The Danish Meteorological Institute reports that Arctic Sea ice volume is above the 15-year mean and at an 11-year high. Some may say, so what?
The bears are not cooperating. Data collected between 2007 and 2015 reveal that polar bear numbers have not declined as predicted and no subpopulation has been extirpated. Several subpopulations expected to be at high risk of decline remained stable and five showed increases in population size. Another at-risk subpopulation was not counted but showed marked … Read more
Remember when the Climate Cult said our children would never see snow in New Hampshire because of Global Warming but the snow wouldn’t cooperate, so it was decided that all that snow was caused by Global Warming? The same thing is happening with sea ice in the Arctic. Large Canadian Arctic climate change study canceled due … Read more
Vanishing Arctic Sea Ice™ continues to be the lead Global Warming story. All the most reputable climate cult propagandists claim the ice is thinner. Its demise is imminent. What will become of us? Sandwich-board wearing prophets roaming digital streetcorners shouting about the end of the world. But the perennial ice today is the same thickness reported in … Read more
In 2014 Climate Cult Kool Aid Drinking yuppie tourists were going to make a point about global warming because “No Polar ice, dude.” They got stuck in the ice that was always there but that they’d been told was gone and had to be rescued. It just happened again. A group of adventurers, sailors, pilots and … Read more
Forbes has a story about the Antarctic. It’s that other frozen wasteland, the one you never hear much about. You don’t hear anything about it because for the past 33 years the amount of sea-ice in the antarctic has apparently been growing, and as of this week–due to record cold temperatures in the region–has reached … Read more
A bear perched precariously on a bit of ice snapped climate Cult twigs that sent us spiraling into a period of OMG, Ice-Free Summers, the Polar Bears will go extinct – and YOU DID THIS. Did you do it in the Early Holocene for 1600 consecutive years, 11 700 years ago?
If you pay a lot of money to attend college or university, you would hope that your professors might question their own claims and look at counter narratives so that you end up with a well-rounded education.
The second biggest disaster of the George W. Bush presidency … after the Iraq War … was elevating John Roberts to the Supreme Court. Roberts is the equivalent of Daddy’s choice of Souter … a weak man, whose strongest conviction was to please his liberal friends like Tom Rath and Warren Rudman, and get pats … Read more
Zooey Zephyr is an American politician and university administrator representing Missoula in the 100th district in the Montana House of Representatives. Zooey found herself in the spotlight this week when she organized a disruption of Montana House proceedings to protest a bill banning gender-affirming care for transgender youth in Montana. On April 18, Rep Zephyr … Read more
June 1st through the 10th is “Filing Season” in New Hampshire. It’s when you have that short window of time to decide (if you haven’t thought about it yet – and you should have if you’ve been reading GraniteGrok!) to run for elected office.
I am writing to endorse Sean Monroe for the Bedford School Board. Over the last two years, parents have begun to wake up and realize they have lost control over how or under what circumstances their children are being educated in the Bedford public school system.
Idiot Marxist Sean Penn had a hot take. It goes like this. “My deep belief is that [being vaccinated is] no different than having everybody being able to drive 100 miles-per-hour in a car.”
