Having an irrefutable hypothesis has its benefits. Take Global Warming. It causes everything: rising Seas, toenail fungus, ED, and Biblical plagues of insects. A native species of Pine Bettles gone wild started wiping out forests in several Northern American States.

“Climate Change” ‘Changes’ – Abundant Snow from “Warming” to No Snow Cuz ”Warming’
The one thing we can say about climate change is that it changes. And by that, we mean the way the Climate Cult portrays reality compared to their “theory.” Take snow, for example. Not that long ago we were told our children wouldn’t know what snow is. In New Hampshire. Mine have all grown up … Read more
Global Warming Is a Progressive Religion. Stop Pretending it is Not.
Global Warming Does Mean More Snow – At Least in November. According to Arctic Sea Ice news, North America had it’s highest November snow extent ever in 2018. North America as a whole had the highest November snow extent in the 1966 to 2018 record (Figure 5). Above average snow cover was particularly notable over central and … Read more
France Caves on Fuel Taxes – Offers 6-Month Reprieve to Examine Options
The French Prime Minister has announced that the planet will survive without the French imposing regressive taxes on fuel or utilities. For 6-months. During that time the government will consider it’s options. And the protesters will consider theirs. How to make 6-months into something more permanent. The French government’s decision to suspend fuel tax and … Read more
Apollo Astronauts Blamed for ‘Warming’ On the Moon
What was my first thought when I heard it suggested that man’s brief encounter with Earth’s Moon was the most likely explanation for the moon ‘warming?’ That’s the moon warming. Send Tom Steyer up there to start a chapter of NexGen Climate. Moonbat Alpha Division. And bring some people with you so you have someone to badger with … Read more
Harvard & Yale Scientists. ‘We can Dim the Sun’ to Stop Global Warming
It’s only a theory but for a few billion a year, beginning a few years from now, “experts” think we might be able to dim the sun. Why? Global Warming. Cool the planet by deliberately dispersing sulfate particles in the atmosphere. Yeah, it’s dumb. But guaranteed to get more funding.
RCSB: Symptoms Of Global Warming And Global Cooling Are Identical
It’s snowing which means global warming. Not that long ago it meant global cooling. And while it’s all just really ‘”The Weather” it’s not. It’s all about politics now. Tom Steyer spent a small fortune on a pre-election ground game in New Hampshire through his NextGen Climate PAC. They turned out a record number of college … Read more
Forest Fires, Melting Ice-Cap’s, and Global Cooling
The politicization of the climate continues to get column inches at Granitegrok because it is not just one of the finest examples of Leftist hypocrisy in modern history but one where they are fully committed. Just search our pages for the proof of this contradiction in their own words. The summation of which is, weather … Read more
Arctic Sea Ice Truth vs. the “Expert’s” Science
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
ICYMI – The Experts Predicted Hampton Beach Would Be Gone by 2020.
As a visiting midwest (ish) tourist, before moving to New Hampshire in 1990, I took the occasional trip to Hampton Beach. Good times. What I didn’t know then was that a few years later in 1995 2500 experts got together and decided they could make a comfortable living if they said things like in 25 years … Read more
Experts, The Media, And Junk Science: 150 Years of Climate VooDoo Exposed
The print media may be dying but it has done us an excellent service. We have the words of experts, editorialists, and exaggeraters going back more than a century on the topic of climate, how it changes, and the ravings of lunatics, credentialed or otherwise about how those changes will be the end of us. Over, … Read more
Blame Global Warming for Another Bumper Apple Crop in New Hampshire?
Global Warming isn’t just a god it is an angry god. It is responsible for every bad thing that happens to anyone or anything. It’s true. From Alligators in the Thames to snow in Bhagdad. From more amourous house cats to making the earth spin faster and slower. From heart disease and bald hedgehogs to more women becoming … Read more
Speaking about Climate Change and Degrees…
It doesn’t seem to be much “there”, does there? The seasonally-adjusted global average temperature fell slightly to +0.19 °C (+0.34 °F) as nearly all regions of the globe cooled relative to their July readings. For the first 8 months of the 2018 calendar year, the atmosphere is averaging a departure from average of +0.23 °C … Read more
Global Warming Part 2: The Science – so bad it’s not even wrong
By Eddie
(Image H/T: allpoetry.com)
Fair warning: This will get a little “sciencey” but don’t fear it can’t get too “sciencey” since I’m not a scientist (now I’m sounding like a Republican).
Let’s start with Newton’s LAWS of Motion and Gravitation. Huh? I know, I’m taking you down another path, but I’ll get to the point eventually. Let’s talk about his 2nd LAW of motion which states that F=MA (force = mass times acceleration). Let’s say that I don’t believe this. There is simply not enough evidence of this LAW. It can’t be true. “What is your alternate theory?” You might ask. It’s not F=MA, that’s for sure. I pushed real hard against my car and it didn’t move an inch. I also have a brother who skydives. He tells me that he stops accelerating after a few seconds. You might reply with explanations of ‘vector sum of forces’, ‘coefficients of static friction’ and ‘wind resistance’. I could keep going, but the point is that I DON’T have a theory. I am simply denying the only theory present. I had a college Physics professor who had a term for this. He would say “It’s so bad, it’s not even wrong.”
Global Warming Part 1: How Liberals Think
By Eddie

I know what’s going through your mind right now: “What? Liberals think?” As much as this might sound like an oxymoron, how liberals and conservatives come to certain conclusions is instructive. I might as well get this out of the way. I don’t have any special insight as to how liberals really think. I can tell you how I came to my conclusions and I have learned a lot based on responses to my earlier post on the topic of global warming.
For me it started in 2006. Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth came out and well, pretty much anything that Al says has got to be true, especially after all the work that he did programming the internet. I don’t think anything that anyone can say after that can convince me otherwise.
Did you actually believe that?
30-Years Ago James Hansen Started Government-Made Global Warming
“One must say clearly that we redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy. Obviously, the owners of coal and oil will not be enthusiastic about this. One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy.” – UN Climate Expert Ottmar Edenhofer
Thirty years ago (the day before yesterday) James Hansen and Sen. Tim Wirth sabotaged the air conditioner in the room where Hansen would be providing testimony on ‘Global Warming.’ The day of (thirty years ago yesterday) was of the hottest days in one of the hottest summers on record, and the stage was set to politicize the weather.
It was a deliberate act of political theatre on the highest order.
Remember That Drought Thing We had That Was the End of the World?
As we rambled through and out of the final year of Obama’s presidency, New Hampshire had a drier-than-usual year. By drier, I mean (Southern New Hampshire) ranked 23rd for precipitation out of 124 years in the Granite State sample.
Did Global Warming’s Pie-Eyed Piper Get Anything Right?
James Hansen has been the boy who cried global warming wolf for three decades. Being an actual scientist at NASA seems to have something to do with giving him credibility but not much else can. He’s been wrong about just about everything.
Pine Tree Ramblings – Vol 8
Global Warming. Liberal logic at its best. “The warming is causing cooling” “Increased snowfall may offset rises in ocean levels” “Antarctic ice gain is caused by Arctic ice loss” I guess when you have a narrative to follow,
It’s April. I just got 1.5 inches of snow. The sign may be right?
I was just remarking that I remember having varsity tennis matches canceled when I was in high school because of snow like this – back in the 70s (yes, I’m getting to be that old). Back then, the scientists and media were all up in arms that we were headed into global cooling and that … Read more
