I see the Climate Change Talks are all but over.
It was nice of them to hold those talks in Durban where they have nice high temperatures in December. I suppose they can try to convince themselves that climate change is a reality by looking out the window?
Most of their time seems to have been spent deciding whether they were drawing up a “legal framework” or a “legal instrument”. I suppose they have to justify all those massive expenses somehow and fighting over semantics is as good an excuse as any? Either way it is going to cost us all a shed load of money.
In the meantime, it is bloody cold here.
It wouldn’t surprise me if we had a couple of inches of Global Warming before Christmas.
I had better dig the snow shoes out….

OK, so another batch of emails from the Climate crowd has surfaced.
Am I jumping for joy?
Not particularly.
Am I scouring the mails for incriminating evidence?
I wouldn’t waste my time.
To be honest, I’m quite pissed off with the whole business of Global Warming Global Cooling Climate Change. It is my firm belief that if they found an email which categorically admits that the IPCC has been talking through its arse for the last few years and that climate change is a load of bollox, it still wouldn’t make the blindest bit of difference.
I have said this before, that man-made Global Warming [or whatever you want to call it] has to exist, even if it is a pack of lies. We have gone too far down the road to turn back. Countries are carbon-trading billions. There is huge employment in the alternative energy business. There are too many taxes being levied on your ordinary Joe Soap.
Does anyone honestly believe that they are going to hold their hands up and admit they are wrong? There would be utter chaos. Thousands of workers would have to be laid off, because the demand for wind farms would cease overnight. There would be demands for the removal of existing wind farms. Countries would demand their billions back and the ordinary Joe Soap would be out in the street rioting.
Even if it is categorically proved that man’s intervention has fuck all to do with climate change [which I firmly believe it hasn’t] then they would have to come up with some very plausible alternative explanation for all the carbon taxes which have been levied which would be an impossible task.
We have reached the point that Global Warming has to exist.
Even though it doesn’t.

They must be very happy.
Those people who believed in man made Global Warming must be jumping for joy.
By now, they must have seen the results from CERN on the CLOUD experiment. Though maybe they haven’t, as the mainstream media seem to be remarkably quiet about it. After all, this is news literally of global significance.
The relief must be palpable. The burden is off our shoulders now that it is pretty well proved that it is the sun that is controlling our weather and climate and not all those nasty CO2 emissions.
Now that CO2 is way down the list of suspects, they can stop this frantic switch to ferociously expensive wind generated electricity. They can revert to good old relatively cheap fuels like gas. There is enough of it to go around for many years to come.
They needn’t worry that all Australia is going insane.
They can even remove all those Carbon Taxes and all that Carbon Trading.
Of course, if I were a really cynical person, I would say that the CERN report will be buried and forgotten about, as they are making far too much money out of us.
But I know they wouldn’t do that.
Would they?

I presume by now everyone has heard the Al Gore speech?
In case you haven’t, here he is ranting on about Global Warming.
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
I have listened to it a couple of times, and each time I become more mystified as to how anyone could believe the idiot.
Al Gore has a very dangerous combination – a theory, a lot of money and a craving for self publicity. He produced that film “An Inconvenient Truth” which by dint of fancy graphics, scare tactics and outright lies, managed to con a lot of people thereby landing us in the crazy situation we are in now with all our carbon taxes and the other “green” measures.
In his speech he comes across as a petulant child who can’t understand that he is wrong. His answer to any criticism is to shout “bullshit” and that is it. He seems incapable of rational argument, and even worse seems incapable of understanding that his theories may come under scrutiny and that people will come up with opposing theories.
For a short while, Gore was hailed as the saviour of mankind and the Nobel Institute were even daft enough to give him a prize. Now that his theories are being disproved left right and centre his response is to whinge that no one believes him any more.
With regard to his claims of “bullshit” science, someone over at the Climate Depot site has neatly provided rebuttals to all of Gore’s points.
In the meantime, here is another piece of bullshit for him to add to his collection.

A week ago I scribbled a little piece about CERN and Global Warming.
I was accused of several things. I was told I wasn’t a climatologist or even a scientist. This is true. I was told that the science is established. I argued that one. I was told that the whole scientific community took an opposing view. I debated that one also. I make no apologies for regurgitating the subject.
Do you remember the Polar Bears? Do you remember how we were told that those cute cuddly animals were in grave danger of extinction because of the ice caps disappearing? My, how that galvanised the world and electrified the cause of Global Warming! Well, apparently their golden boy who originated this scare is now being investigated for “integrity issues". Oh dear, oh dear! This is indeed a blow against The Great Cause. However, I doubt that one snippet by itself is going to derail the Global Warming bandwagon, though it should please lovers of Polar Bears.
But what happens when one of the World’s largest scientific communities casts more than doubts on the integrity of the Alarmists? What would happen if NASA turned around and said that there were huge discrepancies between the Alarmists data and the truth? They have. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear! Apparently carbon dioxide isn’t the great evil we thought it was. Apparently the Alarmists models are wrong. What’s worse is that this new evidence is based on accurate measurements and not just a hypothetical model or one of Al Gore’s wet dreams. I would imaging there are a few red faces around? They are still fighting a rear-guard action after The East Anglia fiasco, and now this?
But as I said before, this whole lark has gone too far. Governments can’t suddenly forget their carbon taxes and their carbon trading. They are making too much money.
Why do I get the impression that if young Johnny McGregor finds a dead seal in the Outer Hebrides, there will be banner headlines throughout the world proclaiming that the seal is irrefutable proof that Global Warming is worse than we thought?
But we won’t hear a whisper about NASA’s findings?
