Morano: ‘Sen. Kerry once called the UN climate panel the ‘gold standard’ of science. Well Climategate exposed the IPCC as ‘fool’s gold.’ Kerry would have you believe is that somehow acts of U.S. Congress can control the weather: If we pass a climate bill, we can reduce droughts, hurricanes & tornadoes. This is now akin to medieval witchcraft where we used to blame witches for controlling the weather. Now akin to Nostradamus & the Mayan calendar’
Gov’t scientist vs. Gov’t Scientist: Hansen’s new study rebuked by Martin P. Hoerling of NOAA: ‘This isn’t a serious science paper. It’s mainly about perception…Perception is not a science’
NYT: ‘Hoerling has published research suggesting that the 2010 Russian heat wave was largely a consequence of natural climate variability, and a forthcoming study he carried out on the Texas drought of 2011 also says natural factors were the main cause. Dr. Hoerling contended that Dr. Hansen’s new paper confuses drought, caused primarily by a lack of rainfall, with heat waves’
NYT’s Justin Gillis reports on Hansen: ‘The percentage of earth’s land surface covered by extreme heat in summer has soared, from less than 1% in years before 1980 to as much as 13% in recent years’
Rebuttal: More accurate NYT headline would have been: ‘New Hansen Paper Cherrypicks The 1970s Ice Age Scare For Comparing Heatwaves’ — ‘Yes, the 1970s were cold. Why not compare against the 1930s? This is junk science at its worst’
Slate Mag. conjures up witchcraft as it blames humans for bad weather: ‘There’s finally somebody to thoroughly blame for this miserable summer heat: ourselves’
Flashback: Medieval Pope’s version of today’s warmists’ claims: ‘Therefore it is reasonable to conclude that, just as easily as they (witches) raise hailstorms, so can they cause lightning and storms at sea; and so no doubt at all remains on these points’
NASA’s James Hansen’s latest claims dismantled: ‘This is nothing but a political ploy from a man who has abandoned any pretext of professionally done science in favor of activism’
