Shaken Consensus
by Einar Du Rietz Interesting to notice how the big-whigs get nervous, as soon as someone else on the top dares to question the holy Global Warming religion. Recent weeks have seen uproar in the European Parliament as British, conservative members openly have defied the “green” promises from London. Recently, Commissioner Janusz Lewandowsky caused even [...]
Sunglasses Wont Help
by Einar Du Rietz Just like Icarus, the UNFCCC and several NGO’s attempts at controlling the climate sometimes feels like the height of pretentiousness. When this permanent crowd is flying around the globe telling ordinary people to change their lifestyles and pay more for necessities, like electricity, it’s nice to find some other perspective. Madhulika [...]
Boring – Go Surfing
UN Climate Change Conference, Bonn, Germany, June 2011 – An Update from Holger Thuss It doesn’t help that the view is awesome or that the food is great, and that you are surrounded by great historic monuments, if you attend a 2-week-mega-meeting, and nothing happens.

Film Time in Bonn
CFACT-presentation at the UN Climate Change Conference, Bonn, Germany, June 11, 2011 A picture tells more than a thousand words, people say.

Bonn Again

Organic cucumbers (Sprouts?) kill 14 in Germany
An outbreak of E-coli contamination in organic cucumbers has sickened 1,200 people and killed 14. Scores of victims have lost all kidney function as a result of the infection with many forced to use dialysis. Green campaigners routinely attack fruits and vegetables grown and protected using efficient modern methods. No evidence exists that “organic” foods [...]
Green taxes v. green research v. productivity
UK green energy researchers seek exemption from green energy taxes The Guardian reports that “world-class research into future sources of green energy is under threat in Britain from an environmental tax designed to boost energy efficiency and drive down carbon emissions.” Researchers at the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy complained to The Guardian that, “considering [...]
Energy Panic
by Einar Du Rietz German Chancellor Merkel’s announcement that all nuclear plants will be shut down within ten years has, rightly caused both joy, confusion and fear. Not just in Germany, but all over Europe. That the announcement was triggered by the resurrected anti nuclear campaign, smelling fresh blood after the – no doubt – [...]
