It’s time to expose the greatest fraud in the history of science, says journalist Kirk Myers.
It’s time to expose the theory (yes, theory) of man-made global warming, aka “climate change” and “climate disruption.” (The charlatans and ignoramuses promoting this alarmist nonsense can’t decide what name to give their junk science.)
From this day forward, I will endeavor to regularly inform, enlighten and entertain those readers (both skeptics and self-confessed warmists) who are exposed daily to a constant stream of climate change propaganda peddled by lazy, uninquisitive reporters who willingly serve as advocate-stenographers (Andrew Revkin, are you reading?) for global warming alarmism.

The global warming meltdown that never was — and never will be
By Kirk Myers, Seminole County Environmental News Examiner
As I’ve done in the past, let me mention one very important point: the theory of human-induced global warming is exactly that — a theory. The scientists promoting it — the Jim Hansens, Kenneth Trenberths and Phil Joneses of the world — have never demonstrated conclusively that human CO2 emissions are warming the planet. Even laymen researchers who’ve done a few hours of homework (and don’t rely on PR releases for their data) know that humans produce a whopping 0.28 percent of the so-called greenhouse gases, with anthropogenic (man-made) CO2 accounting for a minuscule 0.117 percent of the total. Using a real-world comparison, 0.117 percent of a football field would equal just over four inches.
The warmists’ scientific conclusions are based purely on climate modeling, not experimentation, observation or hard empirical data. Worse, they’ve turned the scientific method on its head. Instead of constructing a theory and then rigorously testing and re-testing to see if it stands up to scientific examination, they start with a pre-ordained conclusion (i.e., fossil fuel-based CO2 emissions cause the earth to warm) and then manipulate and tune their computer models to churn out data that support it. In short, human-induced global warming is the product of laboratory computer simulations and over-active imaginations; it doesn’t exist in the real world.
Another article of faith that deserves a healthy dose of skepticism – from warmists and lukewarmists alike — is the so-called greenhouse theory. According to this sacrosanct doctrine, CO2 and other greenhouse gases “trap” infrared radiation, thus acting like a thermal blanket, raising the earth’s atmospheric temperature to a cozy 33 degrees centigrade. Lucky humanity: Without this atmospheric greenhouse guardian, we’d spend a small fortune heating our homes while arming ourselves against nuisance polar bears roaming the countryside.
It should be noted that the greenhouse theory is relatively modern in origin and, as astrophysicist Joseph Postma observes, “is never mentioned in any fundamental work of thermodynamics, physical kinetics or radiation theory.” Try as you may, you won’t find the terms greenhouse effect or glass-house effect mentioned in any classical textbooks on experimental or theoretical physics.
According to Postma, the “Greenhouse Effect is indeed a theory; it is not a benign empirical fact, such as the existence of the sun, for example. As a theory it has a scientific development which is open to inspection and review.”
But in the minds of the warmists, questioning the theology of greenhouse warming is akin to blasphemy. Better to be caught red-handed showering with a 12-year-old in a Penn State locker room.
As W.R. Pratt points out in his article, “The Science is Settled?”: “A scientific hypothesis is not established science.”

Solar winds are low for being at the solar max of this cycle. When the new solar cycle comes it could drop even lower along with the new minimum . No one knows for sure but it is a sign that change may be coming next solar cycle. The solar wind has been going down for a long time but this is unusual at solar max.

From John Seach’s site:
Williams and Holland’s Law:
If enough data is collected, anything may be proven by statistical methods.
Hiram’s Law:
If you consult enough experts you can confirm any opinion.
Murphy’s Law of Research
Enough research will tend to support your theory.
You have lost your battle to convince people of your falsehoods. It has become quite obvious that you are wrong, you don’t understand science, and you hate intelligent people like Al Gore and President Barrack Hussein O’Bama. YOU ARE A FRAUD whose website is now permanently deleted from my bookmarks.
Sincerely,

To call it a theory is like giving them credit for scientific studies which is not the case. A better name for it is a sinister concoction hatched in the greedy and power hungry harts of those who would enslave the world.
I wish him luck,of course they will tell you he is paid by big oil.
What I want to know is, are these so-called (warmist) scientists self-deluded or just plain evil? If they actually believe the b.s. they spew out, then they are self-deluded; a sorry state for a so-called scientist. If they are promoting AGW knowing it to be a lie that will, if their agenda is fully implemented, cause the deaths of millions or billions of people, then they are just plain evil people. All those who believe in human-caused global warming/climate change should either give up all modern technology and live like our hunter-gathering ancestors . . . our just commit suicide . . . to save Mother Earth and for the greater good. And I suggest that the warmist scientist lead the way to greater glory by ending their, obviously, miserable lives.
I believe there are those who are innocently duped and those, like Phil Jones and Jim Hansen, Who know they are wrong and continue anyway. For those who have knowingly promoted this fraud there should be no forgiveness. For those who are innocent and repent, there should be forgiveness, but the window of opportunity for forgiveness should be very short. By now, with all the evidence available, anyone should be able to determine the truth.
This is equivalent to going up against the 13th century Holy Roman Empire whose steadfast positions included the long-disproven “theory” that the entire universe literally orbited around the EARTH. And the ramifications of opposing the “theory” of the warmists and alarmists of today are as equally treacherous as opposing the HRE was. Those in the HRE back in the day, who held to their misguided beliefs, did so to protect their own livelihoods, much like the present-day so-called intelligentsia in organizations such as the IPCC (with co-conspirators from Penn State et al). In other words, they are getting paid to sell the LIES about climatology, so that politicians can run with it all the way to the bank themselves. Quite the scam system, wouldn’t you say?
well said by kirk. having a “discussion on another site with someone who insists hansens latest release that were really warming faster is true. and russian methane is degassing at fearful rates.
it may be degassing but I doubt its anything it hasnt done before. so much hysteria from so few, seems to have managed to continue to sucker the vulnerable, makes me wonder how come? I suspect its a guilt trip, they have a lot, compared to many, so must flagellate themselves and us to feel ok about it. sad .
Robert,
It is all for the sake of temperature data to the exclusion of all other science in a narrow window of Earth time. This is what the current theories were produced for.
Temperatures data generated a single calculation that is absolutely garbage for an orb shape planet with a great many different velocities.
Everybody should read the basic calculation climate “scientists” use to determine that the “effective” temperature of the Earth is 255 K or minus 18 degrees C.
The result they obtain from their trickery does not apply to the Earth’s surface but at the top of the atmosphere and EVERBODY with half a brain knows it is damn cold up there.
All they establish with all their bogus “science” is that o balance the incoming solar radiation to the half of the Earth illuminated during the day by approximatley 1,000 watts/sq m the sphere of the Earth only needs to radiate less than 240 W/sq m as some of the energy is stored in the biosphere, oceans and to a lesser extent the atmosphere etc.
They use this “factor of four trickery” to claim that just outside the atmospheric boundary – there is no sharp boundary – the solar radiation is a “constant” of 1368 W/sq m but somehow 3/4 of that just disappears and they calculate the Earth’s temperature using 239 W/sq m which is made up from 1/4 of 1368 W/sq m = 342 W/sq m minus 0.3 x 342 to account for reflectivity – albedo.
Plug 239 into the Stefan-Boltzmann equation for radiation and you get 255 K or minus 18 degrees C.
But this is a fake result because the incoming solar radiation is not this fake 1/4 of the solar constant but more like 1368 X (1 – 0.3 – albedo) which is about 957 W/sq m.
Plug 957 into the Stefan-Boltzmann equation for radiation and you get 360 K or almost 88 degrees C.
Sounds too hot – well you’re right because our atmosphere keeps us cool during the day and this result is the maximum at noon at the equator with sun vertically overhead. Convection and evaporation of water absorb enormous amounts of energy and distribute that energy throughout the globe and upper atmosphere where it either radiates to space or is released through precipitation – rain/snow/sleet etc if you like.
You can easily verify the climate “scientists” are wrong to perform their “factor of four” fakery – really.
The Moon has an albedo of 0.12. The Moon is about the same distance from the Sun as Earth.
Therefore the solar “constant” for the Moon is 1368 W/sq m like Earth.
0.88 X 1368 W/sq m = 1203.84 W/sq m.
The Stefan-Boltzmann equation tells us that the temperature associated with the radiative power is
wait for it -
381 K or 108 degrees C.
Now as a project Google “what is the daytime temperature on the moon “?
Here is one of thousands of sites –
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_average_daytime_temperature_on_the_Moon
Guess what – it is about 107 degrees C.
So please explain how the Sun can heat the moon to more than 107 degrees C but the Earth to a paltry minus 18 ?
Remember the Moon has no atmosphere and no magical “greenhouse gases”.
Also remember that the temperature associated with a given radiative poweris the maximum for that power – this means that once heated to the maximum temperature associated with the radiative power it will not get any hotter no matter how long it is there.
So the long lunar day has nothing to do with it – the Moon’s surface would heat rapidly to the maximum quickly and then get not hotter during the rest of the 22 day long (I think) lunar day.
We can observe that it probably happens in less than a day as the Earth can heat up very rapidly by mid afternoon in summer.
The answer of course is easy – the whole theory is based on bad “science” which is easily debunked if you simply think about it.
The article mentioned K Trenberth who published an energy budget where this nonsense of quartering the incoming solar radiation is promoted.
It is voodoo “science” at its worst.
A theory is a story based on evidence which can be observed by any competent person, since there is no evidence.
Global warming is merely fiction.
A scientist is one who does science; the people behind global warming are properly called liars.
My hat is off to you Mr. Kirk Myers. Thanks for having the guts to take a stand for sanity, and for putting a little sense back into common sense!
You can’t confuse them with data, nor are they concerned about facts. Their agenda is set and the media will continue to support it until they have reached their goal of 4 or more billion humans culled by starvation and freezing. And if you stop and really look at the way things are going, you won’t end up disagreeing with me. It is time for those that are about to be culled to decide if they, too, have a right to life. But you can’t do that by sitting in front of the TV drinking diet sodas, drinking fluoridated water, all the while texting on your cell to the person in the next room.
Tom,
Your probably far closer to the truth than the white washing being pushed by the media.
