"The EPA would monitor and regulate the carbon emissions of "lawn and garden equipment" as well as everything with an engine, like cars, planes and boats. Eco-bureaucrats envision thousands of other emissions limits on all types of energy. Coal-fired power and other fossil fuels would be ruled out of existence, while all other prices would rise as the huge economic costs of the new regime were passed down the energy chain to consumers."

The fine print must be examined. In this case, the fine print reveals the Pickens Plan requires billions in government subsidies and the widespread use of government eminent domain powers. It also would further enrich Mr. Pickens."

Wind farms slaughter bats by the thousands

"Washington responds to the climate change panic with multibillion-dollar taxpayer subsidies for supposedly clean tech. But then when those incentives start to have an effect in the real world, the same greens who favor the subsidies say build the turbines or towers somewhere else. The only energy sources they seem to like are the ones we don't have."

Three of the remaining four inches is crammed with a variety of minor, but essential, gases like neon, helium, hydrogen and methane. And the last inch? Carbon dioxide. One inch out of a hundred-yard field! And the most important point-how much of that last inch is contributed by man-made activities? Envision a line about as thin as a dime standing on edge.

"In increasing practice, land trusts do not hold on to the easement but turn around and sell it to federal or state government agencies, known as a "prearranged flip" or "preacquisition." Because most easements are purchased by land trusts at below market value, land trusts can then sell the property to the government at market value, profiting off the difference."

Changes in the Sun’s Surface to Bring Next Climate Change

Falsification Of The Atmospheric CO2 Greenhouse Effects
The atmospheric greenhouse effect, which is still supported in global climatology, essentially describes a fictitious mechanism, in which a planetary atmosphere acts as a heat pump driven by an environment that is radiatively interacting with but radiatively equilibrated to the atmospheric system. According to the second law of thermodynamics such a planetary machine can never exist. Nevertheless, in almost all texts of global climatology and in widespread secondary literature it is taken for granted that such mechanism is real and stands on a firm scientific foundation.

The case against climate alarmism
"Science" has become the trump card that drowns out reason - what great irony. And the scientific establishment itself has become politicized. And if you read the mitigation measures being proposed, just imagine if there was nothing we could do to affect global warming - which even some of the lead authors of the IPCC studies themselves acknowlege - and see if you want to live in the brave new world we are leading ourselves into by our own gullible noses.

'Green' energy project causing earthquakes
The project involved injecting large quantities of pressurised water into three-mile-deep boreholes, where underground temperatures reach 200C. The super-heated water is circulated back to the surface where it is used to produce steam and drive a turbine to generate electricity.But Geopower Basel, the company behind the scheme, was forced to stop pumping water into the hot rock layer following a series of powerful earthquakes, which were felt up to 10 miles away. Prosecutors are now investigating everyone involved in the project to determine possible criminal responsibility, amid allegations that project officials knew there was a risk of triggering earthquakes.

President of Czech Republic Calls Man-Made Global Warming a 'Myth', AlGore 'insane ' This is a great interview!
"..IPCC is not a scientific institution: it's a political body, a sort of non-government organization of green flavor. It's neither a forum of neutral scientists nor a balanced group of scientists. These people are politicized scientists who arrive there with a one-sided opinion and a one-sided assignment."
In their own words: "The IPCC does not carry out research nor does it monitor climate related data or other relevant parameters."

Inconvenient Truths: Novel science fiction on global warming

An experiment that hints we (you..) are wrong on climate change
"Twenty years ago, climate research became politicised in favour of one particular hypothesis, which redefined the subject as the study of the effect of greenhouse gases. As a result, the rebellious spirits essential for innovative and trustworthy science are greeted with impediments to their research careers. And while the media usually find mavericks at least entertaining, in this case they often imagine that anyone who doubts the hypothesis of man-made global warming must be in the pay of the oil companies. As a result, some key discoveries in climate research go almost unreported."

"Organic" foods just another sales gimmick

The IPCC needs a lesson in geology
"It is a search for a mythical CO2 sink to explain an immeasurable CO2 lifetime to fit a hypothetical CO2 computer model that purports to show that an impossible amount of fossil fuel burning is heating the atmosphere, It is all a fiction."

Al Gore And NBC: Birds Of A Feather
"NBC and GE have other interests in hyping climate change. Let's not forget GE is the parent of NBC and stands to make a wad of cash from selling alternative energy products from wind turbines to solar panels to those compact fluorescent bulbs containing mercury. So when Gore prances on stage to demand we stop building coal-fired plants, that's music to GE's corporate ears."

Timber Industry turns lawsuit tables on Greens
2004 Index of Leading Environmental Indicators
NRI figures were substantially inaccurate and had overstated the amount of land developed in the U.S. After the 2000 Index went to print, the U.S. Department of Agriculture withdrew the NRI, citing unspecified "computer programming errors" that required recalculating and restating the NRI results. The revised NRI admits that the previous estimates overstated developed land by more than 30 percent. The effects of this revision are not limited to the 1997 NRI alone: correcting the computer error has led to the Department of Agriculture to restate the results of the previous four NRIs stretching back to 1982.
In other words, analysts have been using incorrect data about land use trends for most of the last two decades.
