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).
Couldn’t care [...]

CFACT at Bonn climate talks

CFACT is reporting from the UN climate talks in Bonn, Germany. Our display addresses issues of alternative energy and juxtaposes wind turbines with the famed Moai, the carved heads of Easter Island, stating that civilization can’t run for long on superstition or subsidies.
On Saturday and Sunday CFACT met with scientists and policy experts credentialed as [...]

And Now For the Good News

by Einar Du Rietz
How splendid in this often pessimist debate, to get the chance to present some good news!
According to the global health statistics from WHO, things are going in the right direction, in some cases remarkably well. Since 1990, infant mortality has decreased by 30 percent. Malnutrition is going down, access to drinking water has [...]

Confidential U.S. Climate Strategy Leaked in Bonn

Reveals radical global warming treaty push, efforts to “bypass” and spin media
Guardian environment editor John Vidal obtained a confidential U.S. climate strategy document from a “hotel computer” at the Bonn climate talks.  Vidal did not reveal to CFACT’s “Mission Bonn” team what was afoot, but came to the CFACT display obviously quite excited and pumped [...]

Carbon Indulgences for Sale at Bonn Climate Conference

Nothing More than Broken Glass

by Einar Du Rietz, Bonn
It certainly is more solemn here, than in Copenhagen, as most people as this conference persist in pointing out. I’m not complaining, and neither is the local community which this time seems to be spared from closed off traffic and broken glass.
The latter is instead provided by some of the few [...]

Der Spiegel: A superstorm for global warming research

“An entire branch of science is in crisis.”
Der Spiegel has posted an in-depth article on the UN IPCC’s fall from grace as people around the world examine the exaggerations, mistakes and manipulations of climate science.
Can the global warming propaganda machine go back to saying whatever it wants and suppressing all dissent?  If the folks at [...]

Lord Monckton: IPCC “At It Again” in Bonn

LORD CHRISTOPHER MONCKTON (Wisconsin)

Let’s Relax For A Minute

by Einar Du Rietz
The Copenhagen process, or what has become the official name, is strolling along. Most countries (read: politicians) have signed the no-one-knows-really-what-to-call- it document, though some after deadline. Reviving Kyoto is still on the table, recently half heartedly suggested by the European Union (read: a bunch of politicians from countries with different agendas).
At [...]

It Can’t Be That Hard to Act Like A Gentleman

Einar Du Rietz on the latest IPCC blunder
So we have to wait another 300 years before the Himalayan ice melts. The IPCC has admitted it had the new predictions before the Copenhagen summit, but were to busy to consider them. The most recent account is by the environmental editor at The Times, Ben Webster.
“The chairman of [...]

Poll Shows British Cold to Climate Propaganda

The London Times Reports that only a quarter of people in the U.K. rank climate change as the world’s most serious problem and only half accept that any climate change is man-made.   Global warming proponents have been caught in so many falsehoods and exaggerations that it is only natural for the public’s faith in [...]

BBC Reports: No Warming for Eleven Years

Fair reporting from the BBC?
Scientific evidence continues to mount against the IPCC’s climate report, however, the media establishment usually ignores it.  What a surprise to read from the BBC that, “for the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures.  And our climate models did not forecast it, even though man-made [...]
