What is it about Democrat Congresswomen from California that gives them the ability to actually see global warming? I'm not sure of the answer, but am positive that for the second time in about two months, a high-ranking Democrat from California went to Greenland, and actually saw global warming. To refresh everyone's memory, the first was House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who in late May claimed to…

By now, you've likely heard about the floods in England, and how the media believe them to be caused by global warming. However, have you heard about the cold snap in Peru that has already killed 70 children? You haven't? Well, how could you? After all, no American media outlet has felt it to be newsworthy. Yet, the following was reported by the BBC on Wednesday, and, as amazing as it might…

As NewsBusters has reported, American media have been relaying to the citizenry that the recent floods in England are caused by - what else? - manmade global warming. Addressing such nonsense Friday was London-based geological-, biological-, and political-history researcher Don Stewart. In an article published at PR-GB.com, Stewart mocked the hysteria surrounding England's floods, and…

The war over climate change got much hotter Friday, so much so that anthropogenic global warming skeptics who have claimed that there is a huge number of scientists staying silent about this issue to protect their careers may have been validated. As NewsBusters previously reported, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, Stephen Johnson, was apprised by Sen. James Inhofe (R-…

Well, sports fans, the tale of the threatening global warming e-mail message took an interesting turn Friday morning when a representative from the American Council on Renewable Energy sent a message to yours truly containing a response from ACORE President Michael T. Eckhart. As NewsBusters reported here and here, Eckhart sent the Competitive Enterprise Institute's Dr. Marlo Lewis an e-…

On July 13, NewsBusters reported that Michael T. Eckhart, president of the American Council on Renewable Energy, sent an e-mail message to Dr. Marlo Lewis of the Competitive Enterprise Institute threatening to destroy his career: If you produce one more editorial against climate change, I will launch a campaign against your professional integrity. During a hearing of the Senate Environment and…

Environmentalists are targeting kids and using deception to get their message out. Anthropogenic global warming evangelists and wildlife filmmakers, Sarah Robertson and Adam Ravetch, made the upcoming live action “Arctic Tale” because as Robertson told the LA Times, "Global warming to a lot of people is statistics...What we wanted to do was put a face on climate change." OK, so there's the goal…

In the past four days, the New York Times published two reviews of "Arctic Tale," a new film about polar bears threatened by - wait for it! - global warming. Makes one wonder whether the need for two reviews versus the normal one was due to the Times's desire to advance alarmism concerning the great, liberal bogeyman of climate change, or that the screenplay was co-written by soon-to-be-Dr. Al…

Just how far is all this global warming nonsense going? Well, on Tuesday, four senators proposed a bill that would create a new federal bureaucracy to oversee the growing multi-billion dollar carbon trading market. Just what we need, right? Another monolithic bureaucracy, this one designed to help solve a problem the existence of which is greatly questioned. As Duke University reported…
