Target: Monckton
Lord Monckton is under attack — a sure sign that he’s winning on warming. Monckton fights back and refutes Prof. Abraham.
Have you noticed the kicking around that CFACT Advisor Lord Christopher Monckton’s been getting lately?
Add to the title “Viscount of Brenchley,” “whipping boy du jour.” Seldom a recent day goes by without some [...]
The Hockey Season is Over
by Einar Du Rietz
…and the famous/infamous hockey stick got stowed away long before the latest world championship even started. Then occasionally picked out again.
The IPCC took out the hockey stick graph from two of their last reports. Somehow, it managed to creep back into the report submitted before Copenhagen, apparently picked up by one of the [...]
End Game or Mid Term – Bonn
by Einar Du Rietz, Bonn
The game is not over yet, but the climate talks in Bonn are. For the time being. Another session is already scheduled for August, and it might very well be that the free-lunchers will squeeze yet another in, during the buildup of expectations before Cancun. After the enormous debacle before, during and [...]
At Least – Leave Those Kids Alone
by Einar Du Rietz, Bonn
I feel old sometimes. I’m not, according to my doctor, but I’m at least not “Youth”, as defined by the United Nations to be between the age of 15 and 24 (for the first three years in there, you also have the privilege of being “child” at the same time).

Global Warming Out Debated
Oxford Union Chooses Economic Growth Over Climate Change
Debate Win for CFACT Advisor Lord Christopher Monckton
Last week the Oxford Union, one of the world’s premier debate societies, chose economic growth over climate change by a vote of 133-110. The vote by students at an elite U.K. university illustrates the continued shift of public support away [...]
Create Prosperity – Not Hypocrisy
by Einar Du Rietz
Investing your money and savings for your pension in funds that advertise themselves as more “ethical” than others? Maybe it’s time to think again.
Environmental watchdogs are increasingly pointing out funds as dubious, because of investments in different energy companies. In a recent – undercover – study (Swedish) non of the four checked [...]
Proper Precautions
by Einar Du Rietz
“Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups”, my former colleague, the environmental affairs director, liked to quote his favourite actor Steven Seagal as saying. It could be read as an argument for the precautionary principle of course, but it could also be interpreted as an argument for precaution against political action. There’s an [...]

1. The global climate has warmed;

I Didn’t Do It I Was Not Even There
by Einar Du Rietz
On March 21, incidentally my birthday, a friend from Iceland called me and said she had organized some fireworks for me. What a pity she could not set off the second eruption one week ago. With all airline traffic closed down in most of Europe, as today, the Climate conference in Bonn would have been more [...]

Water is low on the United Nation’s priority list
by Edgar L. Gärtner
“Clean water for a healthy world“ is the theme of today’s 18th annual international World Water day. UN general secretary Ban Ki-Moon did not miss out the opportunity to point out that clean water is a scarce commodity on our watery planet and is becoming [...]
