I'm going to give him two answers. A little later I will post taking Keating seriously part 2?? that recounts a few of the prima facie ways that the IPCC's radical attribution claims are highly unscientific, as pointed out by numerous people in recent years. | 5 |
The article started out by saying record low temperatures. Then it switched to coldest temperatures of the year. I dont know which statement is true. Either way, it certainly doesn??t look like "global warming." | 1 |
In 1985, ice cores extracted from Greenland revealed temperatures and CO2 levels going back 150,000 years. Temperature and CO2 seemed locked together. It was a turning point - the greenhouse effect captured attention. But, in 1999 it became clear that carbon dioxide rose and fell after temperatures did. By 2003, we had... | 2 |
Climate modeling is far from a precise science. The last decade of global temperatures (from about January 1999 onward) reveals little to no warming. This runs contrary to the estimates of most runs of climate models – though similar periods without warming do occur in a small portion of climate model runs, which inclu... | 5 |
1,200 Scientists and Professionals Declare: "There is No Climate Emergency" | 5 |
Al Gore is a prime example of the danger of seeking religious purpose in life through political interests and activism. Today, his declared central organizing life-principle is salvation of the environment. Yet for most of his life he was a member in good standing of the 16 million-member Southern Baptist Convention. | 0 |
Everything that the pope is saying on the climate issue is very much lockstep with the establishment view that fossil fuel use has no unique positives and only catastrophic negatives. From that view if you had a climate catastrophe it would affect the poor, | 7 |
The church has got no mandate from the Lord to pronounce on scientific matters, | 0 |
The truth is that climate change research is still in its infancy, and that consensus extends only to issues of little relevance to policy. Climate change is poorly understood, and industrial emissions of greenhouse gases may be a small, even negligible, factor. | 5 |
I switched to the other side in the early 1990’s when Fisheries and Oceans Canada asked me to prepare a position paper and I started to look into the problem seriously. | 0 |
It is clear that climate change is a serious problem that requires research for solutions and effective policies that allow us to meet our energy needs while protecting the environment: that’s why oil and gas companies are working to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. | 0 |
Global warming realists understand that a greener biosphere with richer and more abundant plant life is not a horrible thing simply because humans may have had some role in creating it. | 3 |
I don’t know the science behind climate change. I can’t say one way or another what is the direct impact, whether it’s man-made or not. I’ve heard arguments from both sides. I do believe in protecting our environment but without the job killing regulations that are coming out of the EPA. | 2 |
Athumani Juma doesn't believe it. A guide who's been hiking the mountain for the past seven years, he laughed when he was asked about the likelihood that Kilimanjaro's snowcap would disappear soon. The glaciers, he claimed, no longer are shrinking, but growing. | 1 |
The Annapolis Center supports and promotes responsible environmental, health, and safety decision-making he Center evaluates risk and cost-benefit analysis both to assist the public in understanding hazards and the relative risks they may present and to identify areas for emphasis in research and policy.

There’s much we know and can agree on around the climate change issue, and there’s much that we just don’t believe we do know…and we want to have a debate about the things we know and understand, the things we know about that we don’t understand very well, and the things we don’t even know about around this very comple... | 0 |
If CO2 actually rose HIGH into the atmosphere, then ALL plant & trees would face EXTINCTION.They need CO2 to survive | 3 |
The global warming crisis emerged from a belief that small rises in CO 2 concentrations result in large knock-on effects, or strong positive feedbacks. These remain conjectural, as the forcings and feedbacks are poorly understood. Just how much of an effect does a rise in CO 2 have a little, or a lot? Hence the importa... | 5 |
Only the federal government and crony confederates could come up with a scam where we are forced to pay more to remove something that doesnt really matter, use it for something else they are trying to regulate out of existence, and then release that same bad stuff into the air where it was supposed to be dangerous. | 4 |
But is it possible that the particular temperature increase observed in the last 100 years is the result of carbon dioxide produced by human activities? The scientific evidence clearly indicates that this is not the case … measurements of atmospheric temperatures made by instruments lofted in satellites and balloons sh... | 1 |
I've got a plan to bring down Global Warming. We're already making progress, the Average daily temperature is 40 degrees lower since this summer. | 4 |
The Northern Hemisphere, North Atlantic, North Pacific and East Pacific SST Anomalies are all dropping. It will not be long before the Atlantic Coast and the Arctic regions will show similar cooling as the AMO goes cool or negative. North America is more likely see much cold weather during the next 20-30 years rather t... | 1 |
Precision of language is critical in government documents. Take the report on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW), which claimed “Indigenous women and girls now make up almost 25 percent of homicide victims. | 0 |
One point I like to stress is that we should think of coal, oil, natural gas, and nuclear, as clean energy. | 7 |
IPCC science claims of 95 percent certainty that human activity is causing climate calamity are more like the dogmatic claims of ideologues and clerics than scientific conclusions. | 5 |
And it is completely wrong, as is often argued, is that it would have never been as warm as today. This is absurd: 120,000 years ago, there were hippos along the Rhine and the Thames. This data should be evaluated before you exaggerate the current figures on horror scenarios. In addition, and in retrospect of the past ... | 2 |
Although moratoria are sought by environmental activists, there is no scientific justification for banning fracking Global warming alarmists argue human activities, primarily the emission of greenhouse gases from energy use, are driving a rapid rise in global average temperature that is causing a climate crisis.

Cooling trends have been "homogenised" to warming trends. | 5 |
ALEC is a corporate bill mill. It is not just a lobby or a front group; it is much more powerful than that. Through ALEC, corporations hand state legislators their wishlists to benefit their bottom line. Corporations fund almost all of ALEC’s operations.

I want to reiterate what API has stated in previous letters to DOS: it is in the best interests of all Americans to build the pipeline to ensure our long-term energy security, a dependable supply of Canadian oil to U.S. refineries and the creation of thousands of American jobs,” Gerard wrote ith regards to the final en... | 4 |
As political parties and party funding are increasingly focused on fighting elections, it is up to ‘political infrastructure organizations’ like the Manning Centre to generate the ideas, the skilled workers, and movement connections for conservative-oriented parties to be successful. | 0 |

All the models telling you that the temperature will increase by a lot, that the Antarctica will melt, to that penguins s will find themselves—I don’t know where—they’re all based on models which are not taking the sun into account and are therefore highly exaggerated. | 5 |
The President said what most people familiar with this issue already knew: Kyoto is flawed and will not work. | 4 |
This idea that hydraulic fracturing is polluting, groundwater is untrue. There’s not a single documented case of hydraulic fracturing polluting ground water. | 4 |
And that makes me a ‘terrible person’? I don’t have a glib attitude, I simply don’t sign up to the entirely fictitious climate ‘catastrophe’ madness. Most of the people on this planet don’t either. That’s a lot of terrible people for you to hate. | 1 |
The leaders of the fake issue of "climate change" are deliberately & deceitfully attempting to destroy humanity by impoverishment & economic / governmental enslavement - global communism.Many of the followers are simply chumps, what Vladimir Lenin called the "useful idiots". | 6 |
Global warming alarmists frequently make false and deplorable assertions (see, for example, my recent column debunking false claims that global warming is causing a decline in wheat production). | 6 |
I suspect what will happen is people will become more aware of the fact that the public is being expected to pay ever more for public policy solutions on climate change and I think the consensus about this will begin to shift and I suspect it’s beginning to happen already actually. I recently listened to a debate on Ra... | 2 |
Well, look, we can have that debate but ever time we’ve had it the Congress has said no, we do not want to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. That’s my position, and I’m glad that the Congress agrees with me,” Ebell responded. “And if people disagree with that, then let them fight the votes and change the Congress, and... | 4 |
Actually, it is much more likely that the warming of the earth over the past century or so is merely a manifestation of the natural temperature variability that is regularly experienced by the earth on quasimillennial time scales. | 2 |
Man indeed may be a pygmy before nature and incapable of causing or reversing a global warming or climate change. To err on the side of caution let us presume man may be contributing a minor fraction towards warming of the earth. The planet has a great resilience we must not however forget. | 2 |
An Agreement In Paris Would Produce Nearly No Discernible Impact On Global Temperatures. | 4 |
The swelling ranks of sceptical scientists is now the largest whistle-blowing cohort in science ever seen.

It is hard to advocate for overbearing regulations that attempt to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions when global temperatures have been stable or declining. In fact, in at least the last seven years, global temperatures have declined, despite increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide, | 1 |
I started as an anthropogenic global warming believer, then I read the [UN’s IPCC] Summary for Policymakers and the research of prominent skeptics. | 5 |
Predictably, Peterson doubts climate change is man-made. His book is scathing about environmentalists, whom he accuses of wanting fewer humans on the planet. | 2 |
The salvation of souls is of more pressing concern than the air temperature. Pray to God and pray for your neighbor, not to the planet. | 6 |
The Clean Power Plan was a politically motivated rule that only served to satisfy the fringe environmental left. | 6 |

I never really call myself a ‘scientist.’ I’m certainly a researcher, and I certainly write a lot of technical stuff, but, as I make very clear in the preface of my book, I’m not a climate scientist, and I never played one in the movies… . .there’s probably some effect of human impact on everything in our environment. ... | 3 |
Climate change fanaticism is a cynical and dangerous distraction, frightening children and adults alike, into believing that those who are opposed to the leftist agenda want the planet to die. The real crimes of asteroids, tsunamis and earthquakes are that they aren’t the fault of humans, and their solutions rely on sc... | 6 |
I note particularly that sea-level rise is not affected by the warming; it continues at the same rate, 1.8 millimeters a year, according to a 1990 review by Andrew S. Trupin and John Wahr. | 1 |
Mine is not an appeal to the authority of any religious truth in the face of contrary scientific evidence. Neither is it even remotely tinged by a post-modernist hostility to rationality. I reject emphatically the claim that most science can be dismissed or at least downgraded as socially constructed by the great and t... | 5 |
Today’s action by Pruitt is a wake-up call for those who continue to falsely claim carbon dioxide is a pollutant. It isn’t, so get over it! Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is essential for life on Earth. It will never cause the dangerous global warming that climate alarmists and their fa... | 2 |

All along the public was told the reason for rising temperatures was a result of the increase in global carbon emissions. Yet carbon emissions continue to rise, while temperatures do not. | 2 |
We are at the top of the food chain insofar as CO2 emissions are concerned. So if you get in the business of limiting CO2 emissions, of taxing CO2 emissions, of creating a value in CO2 emissions where people trade them in this emissions trading scheme, you go to the coal plants first because of the fact that that’s the... | 0 |
When it's significantly colder than average will you be flapping on twitter? Of course not, not a peep because it doesn't fit the global warming climate crisis con! | 1 |
The simple fact is that, since the beginning of this century, the average global temperature has flatlined; indeed, over the past 18 months it has fallen back, and according to the satellite measurements of temperature, it is now basically back at the level it was in 1979, when such measurements started to be taken. | 1 |
Carbon taxes will harm the economy and hurt working families trying to pay utility bills and commute, | 4 |
Your "climate change crisis" is not a crisis it's a power grab scam. | 6 |
It is very likely that the impact of rising carbon dioxide concentrations is currently net beneficial for both humanity and the biosphere generally. These benefits are real, whereas the costs of warming are uncertain, | 3 |
He accused the Society of promoting a "pseudoscientific fraud," namely "the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists. . ." | 6 |

For the last century, we’ve had ever-so-slight warming trends and ever-so-slight cooling trends every 30 years or so, and I don’t think either are anything worth collapsing the global economy over. | 4 |
If this weather forecast showing sub-freezing temperatures in the Beaufort Sea is correct, alarmists are in a world of hurt. | 1 |
Thus, as of today, the United States will cease all implementation of the non-binding Paris Accord and the draconian financial and economic burdens the agreement imposes on our country.

CORE has no functioning chapters; it holds no conventions, no elections, no meetings, sets no policies, has no social programs and does no fund-raising. In my opinion, CORE is fraudulent. | 0 |
The previous predictions about the horrendous warming the people expected has not come to pass… . so it’s just pure garbage. There’s no reason to believe any of it. | 5 |
Water vapor in the Earths atmosphere is a primary factor affecting climate long term and weather short term. | 2 |
What the country needs is energy security, which means encouraging developments in our strategic energy reserves in the North Sea, not taxing it out of existence and shutting down the basin he UK government’s so-called windfall tax is really primitive politics.

Colors show what drives fire activity. The greatest fire activity occurs during the duff-driven period typically occurring from mid-June to early July. Some years are stronger than others. Guess it's not climate change since it's been happening for 1000's of years | 1 |
Check out how the moon blew up earth and how the dinosaurs ended.. that was climate change as well. | 0 |
I want to know when global warming will start. Im still freezing my ass off at the end of April. | 1 |
The fact is that any supposed damage caused by human driven climate change is being massively over exaggerated to further agendas and line pockets. Humanity has far more serious threats facing it. | 4 |
Last year, [the Kochs] used their shares to place two of their operatives — Kevin Gentry and Nancy Pfotenhauer — on our board against the wishes of every single board member save for David Koch. Last Thursday, they used their shares to force another four new board members on us (the most that their shares would allow a... | 0 |
The great problem with climate change is that it no longer seems like a scientific theory, but more like a 21 st century version of the pre-Reformation Catholic Church, complete with evangelists, tithes, indulgences and bizarre superstitions. | 6 |
At this point there is little doubt that the IPCC position is seriously flawed in its central position that humanity is responsible for most of the observed warming of the last third of the 20th century, and in its projections for effects in the 21st century. | 2 |
Climate change, what climate change? It's a mere hypothosis at best not something to make loony policies from, the world's gone f ing mad. | 1 |
With respect to the effects of greenhouse gas concentrations, the evidence suggests that increases in extreme weather events have not happened despite the predictions of many. | 1 |
