The ‘global warming’ story you haven’t heard: part two
In January, I told you about independent journalist Donna Laframboise’s one-woman investigation of that Nobel-prize winning UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report on “global warming.”
She discovered, simply by using the report’s own built in search function, that some of the IPPCC report’s “peer reviewed scientific journals” were, uh, not.
Laframboise kept pulling the “peer review” thread. Today, she announces:
I counted the references cited in the final, published version of Chapter 11 and got a tally of 330. Of those, fully 139 – or 42 percent – were non-peer-reviewed grey literature.
(…)
At this juncture it’s worth remembering that the IPCC’s chairman, Rajendra Pachauri, has repeatedly claimed that the IPCC relies solely on peer-reviewed material to make its case. By now we know this isn’t remotely true.
I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for this story to hit the American mainstream media anytime soon. And when it does, I doubt Laframboise will get any credit. Mainstream media bores write off bloggers as “parasites” on their “hard work,” but increasingly, the opposite is true.
PS: here’s your Friday smile, from our “Why Nobody Reads Newspapers Anymore” file. Enjoy!

This journalist is attacking the AGW hoax incorrectly.
Nit picking the details about IPCC reports, analyzing all of those CRU eMails, protesting Cap & Trade based on it's cost are all fine, however they're too complex for the average person in the street to understand much less remember.
WE know it's all a scam, but unless we can get the public to start speaking up about this, they way they're speaking up against Obamacare, we're not going to get much traction on the issue.
We need that one clever sound bite that's simple enough for everyone to understand & here it is:
Warming is Good !

Swemson, the latest and most ridiculous nonsense from the Ed Bagley, Jr. Institute on Knowledge of Everything is that the warming is destroying the rain forrests and equitorial flora. HUH!!!!! This conclusion not only demonstrates a profound lack of knowledge of the life cycle of plants, you know the whole thing of we need warmth, we take in CO2 and give the humans O2 thing, but the lengths at which the loons will switch gears to stay on their unscientific thesis. When I heard Bagley,Jr espousing a "return" to the basic knowledge "already verified through the peer review" process, I almost fell off my chair. The level of delusion and frank dishonesty is staggering. I agree with your paring down the attack to simplicity and directness to be the most effective in light of the amount of
damage and misinformation that the IPCC,Gore, the Hollyweird elites and school teachers have generated. This has become a case of where a lie told often and loud enough has become the truth.It's time to sink it once and for all using a frontal and straightforward attack.
Thanks…
And part of getting the message out effectively, is that "word bite" that everyone can remember. If you can come with a better one than Warming is Good! please let me know.
And if you run into Begley, tell that putz that US Forests have grown by more than 40% since 1950. ,

Begley,Jr and the "Science Guy" are joined at the hip here in California. I will call my nephews,aged 9 and 11 and ask them about the slogan. They are remarkably intelligent and come up with some amazing thoughts. Just a proud aunt talking.
I hope those kids aren't being brainwashed by the California public school system…
BTW: When you get fed up with La La land, you gotta come check out my area… I'm about midway down the coast between NY and Miami.. The Bagel Bomber passes over me daily!

Yes "Warming is Good!" a warm planet is a happy planet, CO2 gives life to plants and
thus O2 to man, it is a natural cycle. You hit the two main points, 1) The advocates of
the scam are lying through their teeth to the uninformed and gullible. 2) One liners seem
to be what the majority get these days and yes "Warming is Good". That so many people
are being had is enough to make me disgusted but you keep on with the right track
and are puting out the kind of information that changes minds……..Kudos……..William
Your "Friday smile" was hilarious! Everybody needs to check it out. One commentator write that the Al Gore poll is still open, so I'm going to try and vote.
I hope the next person who interviews that nitwit Ed Begley Jr. has this info firmly in hand.
And I wouldn't put it past the determined riders of this eight horse of the apocalypse to turn to the seismologeanists to save the day. With profuse funding to be had and their time too, in the limelight, febrile daily reports of every wheeze in the Earth's terrestrial and seabed crust might sufficiently unsettle where so far, folk have stood pretty firm.
Swenson makes a good point. How about "CO2 is food".
