Turnbull: Cap-and-trade kills a career.
An article was just published on Investors.com that’s really exciting.
Let’s hope this is contagious, and the rest of the American people wake up too!
This is great news for all supporters of rationality and common sense in government:
Cap-and-trade in Australia — which just a week ago was declared a certainty — is officially dead.
This is the first major climate change turnaround anywhere in the Western world, with significant implications for our domestic debate. read more…
The whistleblower deep in the basement of one of the ugly, modern tower-blocks of the dismal, windswept University of East Anglia could scarcely have timed it better.
In less than three weeks, the world’s governing class – its classe politique – would meet in Copenhagen, Denmark, to discuss a treaty to inflict an unelected and tyrannical global government on us, with vast and unprecedented powers to control all once-free world markets and to tax and regulate the world’s wealthier nations for its own enrichment: in short, to bring freedom, democracy, and prosperity to an instant end worldwide, at the stroke of a pen, on the pretext of addressing what is now known to be the non-problem of manmade “global warming.†read more…

Groucho Marx once said,
”Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.”
I doubt that sentiment has ever more true than it is today. The entire Global Warming movement and all the idiocy that goes with it such as Cap & Trade, has become 100% political. There’s literally ZERO scientific evidence that validates the ridiculous CO2 theory that it’s based on.
Lord Monckton, in his inimitable way, explained exactly what’s really behind this entire scam to Americans quite succinctly when he displayed his “Traffic Light Tendency” during his recent presentation in Minnesota.
Recently, when Lord Monckton was on the Glenn Beck show of 10.30.09, the specific subject of the discussion from the very beginning was the upcoming Copenhagen Treaty, and the manner in which it will lead to the creation of a new “Global Government” by getting us to cede some of our sovereignty to this new entity. read more…

One of the most common problems people have when I explain the truth about the AGW hoax, is that they simply can’t understand how such a huge number of people in science, government, the UN, and the media can all be lying. Of course they’re NOT all lying. A large percentage of these people are just blind followers, who believe that the AGW theory must be true, simply because President Barack Obama, former Vice President Al Gore and all those big shot scientists, media spokesmen and “environmentalists” say it is. When you think about it, it’s easy to understand why that’s the case.
But they ARE lying, and we’ve known that for a fact for quite a while now. read more…

Having disposed of the CO2 myth in part 2 of this series, we’re now going to discuss a number of the other lies that Al Gore, the IPCC & the EPA have been spreading.
(Note: I gratefully acknowledge The Monthly CO2 Reports published by SPPI, and edited by Lord Monckton, which has been invaluable in putting together this series. ……… Thanks m’ Lord !)
The British High Court has ruled that Gore’s absurd movie may not be shown in British public schools unless the students are forewarned that Gore made 9 significant mistakes in the film. As you’ll learn shortly, there were FAR more than just those 9. read more…

As I wrote in my reply to Wayne’s question in Part I of this series, in this installment, I’m going to describe the way in which I feel we should begin our argument when addressing the general public about the AGW hoax, but before I start, we need to go just a bit more deeply into the history of climate change itself.
In the following graph, we can see all the way back to the Precambrian era, some 4.5 billion years ago. During this period we can see that the earth went through periods of extreme cold, when the temperature averages per year were as low as 10°C (50°F) and through periods of extreme warmth when the temperature averages per year were 25°C (77°F). The difference between those extremes, was far bigger than the difference between the extremes of the last 1000 years, from the medieval warm period to the little ice age. In fact our mean average during the last 1000 years, has even been below the mean average of 17°C (62.6°F) for the time period going back to the earliest days of our planet. read more…

I hope everyone watched Friday’s Glenn Beck show with Lord Christopher Monckton. For a long time he’s been one of the leading voices speaking out against Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW,) the absurd hoax that former Vice President Al Gore and so many others have been perpetrating on the world for so many years now. This current example of doom and gloom predictions of imminent global catastrophes is far more serious and dangerous than any of the others to be sure, but the first thing that everyone should know about the subject is that these false stories have been with us throughout history. read more…
