Can’t work you out,  your not brain dead , there is definitely intelligence there but you have issues with accepting ‘information’? Just a thought, if someone challenges your beliefs spend a little time seeing it from their perspective, unless they are twelve there is a chance they may know something you don’t :rcf-rich-1:

More climate bullshit , The Amazon burning , here's the reality , complements of NASA .

“As of August 16, 2019, satellite observations indicated that total fire activity in the Amazon basin was slightly below average in comparison to the past 15 years.”

Short summary: we have had wild fires for many years now in the Amazon, even in the tropical rainforest – mainly started by humans for forest clearing and ranching. It is not enough to impact significantly on the Paris agreement pledges yet, though it is important in the long term if this continues for decades. This image is being shared even in usually reputable media with captions such as National Geographic’s “The Amazon is burning at record rates – and deforestation is to blame”. Similarly, the BBC is reporting it as a “record”.

China doing it's bit to confirm the scam and how about the name of the fund , GREEN CORPORATE and RENEWABLE energy fund . This confirms cindy and those around her are complete fools.

According to Shanghai-based financial data provider Wind, 7.4 billion yuan ($1.1 billion) in green corporate and financial bonds were issued by 13 coal projects in the first half of the year. They involved power plants fuelled by coal or coalbed methane as well as coal-to-chemical projects.

China Energy News, a publication run by the Communist Party-owned paper the People’s Daily, reported this year that more than 80% of a central government renewable energy fund was used to fund fossil fuels like coalbed methane and shale gas in 2018.

China also approved 141 million tonnes of new annual coal mining capacity in the first half of this year, compared to 25 million tonnes for the whole of 2018.

 

So much for climate change , the Chinese are not interested but are playing much of the western world brilliantly , it looks like Trump is our only hope .

‘The Amazon Is Burning’ Pt 1: A Flaming Heap of Bullshit

Call me a cynic, but every time some new environmental or climate change moral panic suddenly grips the legacy media – and especially its wagging-tail, social media – I immediately check to see if there’s either another big environmental-political circus due or a left-wing politician in trouble.

So when the social media Chicken Little screeching about the Amazon supposedly burning to the ground began, with the legacy media rushing to fall into line, it was no surprise to find the following triple-whammy. Not only is the G7 elite excursion week about to begin, but the UN is about to chill the champagne and rev up the private jets for yet another climate gabfest. More tellingly, the whole Amazon kerfuffle was kicked off by failing Frog lefty, Emmanuel Macron.

Well, colour me surprised.

Imagine my shock, too, to find that the whole circus doesn’t even stand up to the scrutiny of a two-minute Google search or even to basic arithmetic. Jo Nova has summarised the basic fact-checking that Twitter hysterics are plainly incapable of. To sum it all in one line: The whole thing is a political beat-up and the Amazon is experiencing nothing but average dry-season forest fires.

brazil-fires-630x510.jpg 2019 is on track to be a totally normal year for Amazon forest fires.

Global Fire Data shows this year is unequivocally a low fire season in the Amazon. But social media tears and outrage is running at 1000% driven by old photos and fake facts of the Amazon producing “20% of our planet’s oxygen” […] Based on hyperbolic twitter pics French leader Macron is threatening to cancel a foreign trade deal. The hype serves the purpose of attacking the right wing Brazilian leader Jair Bolsonaro in the lead up to a G7 summit this week.

The photo he used? It’s a stock photo from Loren McIntyre, a photographer who died in 2003.

MacronFakeNews-630x472.jpg Emmanuel Macron’s tweet (inset) and the stock photo he used to fake it.

That should have set everyone’s bullshit meters clanging. But if that’s not enough, here are the numbers:

The tally of fire counts here is up to data for August 22, 2019. Emissions are preliminary estimates based on fire counts, but the graph shows just how ordinary, normal and boring 2019 is expected to be when the final numbers are done.

amazon-emissions-fires-graph-record-year 2019 is actually looking like a pretty quiet, boring year for the Amazon.

Whenever someone starts gibbering about the Amazon, the first thing to keep in mind is just how freaking big the Amazon actually is. For instance, the once-respectable National Geographic shrieked that more than 7,000 square miles has been “razed”. Well, that does sound pretty scary. Except that the Amazon covers more than two million square miles. So, the area “razed” amounts to just 0.3%. Suddenly, it’s less scary.

Nonetheless, the legacy media obediently jumped to the crack of the Twitter whip. Yet, even the hacks struggled to beat this non-event up. From the thoroughly alarmist BBC:

“US space agency Nasa, meanwhile, has said that overall fire activity across the Amazon basin this year has been close to the average compared to the past 15 years.”

Remember when it comes to climate change, NASA are the definitive last word, but when it comes to Amazon fires, they’re just a casual addendum. “No comment”.

Jonathon Watts at The Guardian carefully words the panic. It’s almost as if he is aware of what is going on but not happy to make it too clear.

In fact, the whole ruckus is such obvious bullshit that even Michael Mann is calling time-out. Yes: Michael freaking Mann. Mann particularly responded to hysterical claims about “the lungs of the planet” (a claim that was debunked almost as soon as it dribbled from Sting’s smug, overpaid gob, back in the 80s).

The hype is so over the top even Michael Mann is watering it down. This might be the first time Michael Mann is on the same side as skeptics?

Do we need to worry about oxygen?

No. Although some reports have claimed the Amazon produces 20% of the world’s oxygen, it is not clear where this figure originated. The true figure is likely to be no more than 6%, according to climate scientists such as Michael Mann and Jonathan Foley. Even if it were accurate, the crops being planted in the cleared forest areas would also produce oxygen – quite likely at higher levels. So although the burning of the rainforest is worrying for many reasons, there is no need to worry about an oxygen shortage.

When the Hockey Stick guy is calling b.s., you really know it’s a complete non-event.

‘The Amazon Is Burning’ Part 2: Politics and Media Manipulation

s I wrote in part one of this story, every time some new environmental or climate change moral panic suddenly sweeps the legacy media and its whip-cracker, social media, it pays to immediately check to see which summit is scheduled to begin soon, or which left-wing politician is trying to distract attention. Part one covered the basic facts, which show that the ‘Amazon burning’ scare is just so much bullshit.

In part two, let’s look at how the whole lying, ignorant hysteria over the supposedly burning-to-the-ground Amazon is all about politics.

Firstly, there is the G7 summit: I’m sure you’ll be shocked, shocked, to learn that the “Amazon is burning” frenzy was triggered by the politically-troubled French leader, Emmanuel Macron. As it so happens, Macron is right in the midst of trade negotiations with Brazil’s Jair Bolsanaro. Bolsanaro is, of course, an evil right-winger, the “South American Trump”. The left really, really don’t like Bolsanaro: he was stabbed almost to death, even before he was elected.

The smoke should be clearing already.

[Bolsanaro’s] Funding cuts have created plenty of enemies.

Many people have a reason to want Bolsonaro to look bad: In May Bolsonaro withdrew an offer to host a United Nations Latin America and Caribbean climate week. In the same week, the president fired self-confessed “militant environmentalist” Alfredo Sirkis, then-leader of The Brazil Forum for Climate Change. He also declared a 30 percent funding cut to maintenance costs of Brazil’s state-owned universities. Three weeks ago, Brazil’s INPE Space director was sacked. The INPE have been the source of the dire data used in some media stories. But Bolsonaro said the data was “not consistent with reality”, accused the head of the INPE of “lies” and working for an NGO.

On the 13th August Germany announced plans to withdraw some €35 million due to the country’s lack of commitment to curbing deforestation . On August 15, Norway suspended donations too […] Spot the coincidence.

The twitter firestorm is amplified just when the UN and big-government fans could use a negotiation weapon […] International leaders are transparently exploiting the hype:

“France and Ireland say they will not ratify a huge trade deal with South American nations unless Brazil does more to fight fires in the Amazon. French leader Emmanuel Macron said President Jair Bolsonaro had lied to him about his stance on climate change.” [BBC News]

The lyin’ legacy media are about as honest and truthful as the politicians.

Some journalists appear to be running off the twitter feed. But others seem to be carefully crafting their stories to highlight irrelevant, cherry-picked half truths.

joannenova.com.au/2019/08/firestorm-of-fake-news-convenient-global-hysteria-about-amazon-based-on-nothing-but-twitter-pics/


The legacy media aren’t even trying to hide their bias. In fact, the Columbia Journalism Review, “intellectual leader…the most respected voice on press criticism, [which] shapes the ideas that make media leaders and journalists smarter about their work”, is openly touting the legacy media narrative.

CJR is emailing journalists around the world, ordering them to fall in line.

Our ask of you is simple: commit to a week of focused climate coverage this September. We are organizing news outlets across the US and abroad—online and print, TV and audio, large and small—to run seven days of climate stories from September 16 through the climate summit UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres hosts in New York September 23.

mailchi.mp/cjr/announcing-new-covering-climate-now-project

Could they be any more obvious?

In his bestselling State of Fear, Michael Crichton writes that “Politicians need fear to control the population […] the media need scare stories to capture an audience […] this is the way modern society works – by the constant creation of fear”.

In Crichton’s novel, a shadowy cabal of e-NGOs and environmental terrorists conspire to engineer a series of devastating ‘natural’ disasters in order to grab attention for their climate scare campaign. But, with the “Amazon is burning” bonfire of bullshit, the left-media elite aren’t even bothering to hide what they’re up to any more.

 Hats off to Seven Sharp tonight on One, Jeremy wells and Hilary Barry with a piece on the Brazilian Rain forest using its resident expert to de-bunk the so called “earths lungs” myth and the big picture of how the Amazon is going, nothing to report here he said ,nothing to much out of the usual and the forest is 80 % stable in good shape and nothing to worry about :rcf-embarrassed-3: 

Its a breath of fresh air actually seeing something on TV that’s not alarmist. :rcfe-like:

How about this Obama buys a vineyard , pays over 14million , sale now completed .

Former President Barack Obama’s  new mansion on Martha’s Vineyard could be totally underwater by the year 2100, according to a climate change model relying on government data.

Climate Central, a research group funded by the government during the Obama administration, projects the Obamas’  new mansion to be well underwater in its “Extreme Scenario 2100” model.  Climate Central’s model is based off of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) “extreme rise” scenario, which Climate Central described as “unlikely but increasingly plausible” in an April 2017 report.

(Screenshot/Google Earth with Climate Central model using NOAA data)

Whats really sad is this brain washing of the next generation. The kids know nothing else but this bullshit and fear tactics. They''ll never be able to think for themselves with this type of dumbing down of the masses.
Sadly....it started thousands of years ago with the intelligent clown who decided to write the book that become the worlds best known fairy tale! :rolleyes:

A Knife Through the Heart of Man-Made Global Warming

hen my better half watched a documentary on solar flare, which is a sudden unpredictable flash of increased brightness on the sun, we talked about the possible correlation between the sun’s variability and global warming. It just makes sense.

We are curious people but not scientists, and Wikipedia says even the most powerful solar flares are barely detectable in the total solar irradiance. So could the sun’s variability actually affect global warming?

 

This month, two independent Irish scientists, Ronan and Michael Connelly, along with Willie Soon from Harvard, submitted their research “Re-evaluating the role of solar variability on Northern Hemisphere temperature trends since the 19th century” to Earth Science Reviews. Christopher Monckton introduces their findings in this video.

Obviously global warming scientists have examined solar variability before. This new research uses the same dataset but re-examines the solar variability factor.

“Although our new composite implies different trends from previous estimates, we note that it is compatible with Northern Hemisphere temperature trends derived from (a) sea surface temperatures; (b) glacier length records; (c) tree ring widths. 

However, the recent multi model means of the CMIP5 Global Climate Model hindcasts failed to adequately reproduce the temperature trends implied by our composite, even when they included both “anthropogenic and natural forcings”.

Researchgate


See note below for a definition of “forcings”. The CMIP5 is the global climate database and model the IPCC uses for its global warming projections. It underpins the Paris Accord that costs NZ taxpayers $1.4B a year and is the basis of subsequent global warming studies.

Science Direct calls CMIP5 a “heterogenous dataset” because “virtually all climate modelling teams in the world contributed to this work.”

“The CMIP5 database allows access to the variables output from each individual model. The outputs are generally available as time series, with various time steps, including daily, monthly, and yearly time steps; from 2006 to 2100 (some models even propose outputs projections up to 2300).”

Science Direct


It’s a very, very big deal for Connelly and Soon to diss the CMIP5 model, and they arrived at their conclusion only after reviewing years of data and after comparing previous studies to their own findings.

“[…] we first review the debate over solar variability. We summarize the points of general agreement between most groups and the aspects which still remain controversial.

We discuss possible future research which may help resolve the controversy of these aspects. Then, in order to account for the problem of urbanization bias, we compile a new estimate of Northern Hemisphere surface air temperature trends since 1881, using records from predominantly rural stations in the monthly Global Historical Climatology Network dataset.

Like previous weather station-based estimates, our new estimate suggests that surface air temperatures warmed during the 1880s-1940s and 1980s-2000s.

However, this new estimate suggests these two warming periods were separated by a pronounced cooling period during the 1950s-1970s and that the relative warmth of the mid-20th century warm period was comparable to the recent warm period.”

Researchgate

Their weather station-based temperature trend estimate was consistent with independent estimates of Northern Hemisphere Sea Surface Temperature (SST) trends, as were temperature proxy-based estimates derived from glacier length records and from tree ring widths.

However, the multi-model means of the recent Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) climate model hindcasts were unable to adequately reproduce the new estimate – although the modelling of certain volcanic eruptions did seem to be reasonably well reproduced.”

Their conclusion is the knife to the heart of the IPCC man-made global warming argument.

“We have constructed a new estimate of Northern Hemisphere surface air temperature trends derived from mostly rural stations – thereby minimizing the problems introduced to previous estimates by urbanization bias.

Similar to previous estimates, our composite implies warming trends during the periods 1880s-1940s and 1980s-2000s.

However, this new estimate implies a more pronounced cooling trend during the 1950s-1970s.

As a result, the relative warmth of the mid-20th century warm period is comparable to the recent warm period – a different conclusion to previous estimates.

One reason why the hindcasts might have failed to accurately reproduce the temperature trends is that the solar forcings they used all implied relatively little solar variability.

However, in this paper, we carried out a detailed review of the debate over solar variability, and revealed that considerable uncertainty remains over exactly how the Total Solar Irradiance has varied since the 19th century.

When we compared our new composite to one of the high solar variability reconstructions of Total Solar Irradiance which was not considered by the CMIP5 hindcasts (i.e., the Hoyt & Schatten reconstruction), we found a remarkably close fit.

If the Hoyt & Schatten reconstruction and our new Northern Hemisphere temperature trend estimates are accurate, then it seems that most of the temperature trends since at least 1881 can be explained in terms of solar variability, with atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations providing at most a minor contribution. 

This contradicts the claim by the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports that most of the temperature trends since the 1950s are due to changes in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations (Bindoff et al., 2013).”

If substantiated, this research blows the man-made global warming theory (anthropogenic forcing) right out of the water. This is huge. The effect for us is huge. We can abandon the politically and financially motivated Paris Accord and put the man-made climate change myth where it belongs – in the fairy tale section of school libraries. Solar variability is the knife through the heart of man-made global warming.

Note: “Forcings” are climate change drivers, natural and man-made energy reflected from the earth back into the atmosphere. “Natural climate drivers include changes in the sun’s energy output, regular changes in Earth’s orbital cycle, and large volcanic eruptions that put light-reflecting particles into the upper atmosphere. Human-caused, or anthropogenic climate drivers include emissions of heat-trapping gases (also known as greenhouse gases) and changes in land use that make land reflect more or less sunlight energy.“

Climate Change Activists Trapped in Ice

In case you thought you were having a bad day, think of these poor souls…

The Swedish ship M / S Malmö with 16 climate activists on board is trapped in the ice at Spitsbergen. This as reported in the Norwegian newspaper Nordlys . The news raises hilarity among critics of climate alarmism: “Maybe they had read in the media that it would now be ice-free”.
A recurring claim by climate activists is that the Arctic is melting ice and they fear that the earth will be flooded by something similar to the flood described in the Bible. But this hypothesis receives little support from impartial measurements, something that a group of environmental activists have now experienced when their ship crashed in the not so ice-free waters around Spitsbergen.
The trip with the M / S Malmö to Spitsbergen was launched as a “climate march” in the footsteps of the trip of the polar traveler Ludolf Schjelderup 88 years ago. But instead of melted icebergs and glaciers, they were met by a frozen sea and trapped in the ice.
During the trip, the activists had brought a team of documentary makers. It is unclear whether a documentary film will still be released now that the journey is not going as planned and the reality at Spitsbergen looks different than expected.

659637a4a2c10f8c9d8636c1b9d3c7be34b1a5d5

This is not the first time that Climate change activists have become trapped in ice. It happened last year as well.

Michael Mann the hockey stick graph guy looses . 

Michael Mann Refuses to Produce Data, Loses Case

Some years ago, Dr. Tim Ball wrote that climate scientist Michael Mann “belongs in the state pen, not Penn State.” At issue was Mann’s famous “hockey stick” graph that purported to show a sudden and unprecedented 20th century warming trend. The hockey stick featured prominently in the IPCC’s Third Assessment Report (2001), but has since been shown to be wrong. The question, in my view, is whether it was an innocent mistake or deliberate fraud on Mann’s part. (Mann, I believe, continues to assert the accuracy of his debunked graph.) Mann sued Ball for libel in 2011. Principia Scientific now reports that the court in British Columbia has dismissed Mann’s lawsuit with prejudice, and assessed costs against him.

What happened was that Dr. Ball asserted a truth defense. He argued that the hockey stick was a deliberate fraud, something that could be proved if one had access to the data and calculations, in particular the R2 regression analysis, underlying it. Mann refused to produce these documents. He was ordered to produce them by the court and given a deadline. He still refused to produce them, so the court dismissed his case.

So it seems another climate fraudster has been flushed out

By Letter to the Editor: Michael ‘ Hockey stick’ Man

A couple of years ago now, I pointed out that Professor Michael “hockey stick” Mann was gonna be in big trouble. Through the Canadian court system, he had sued a real scientist, Dr Tim Ball, for libel because Ball had publicly claimed that Mann “belongs in the state pen, not Penn State”. In particular, Ball dismissed Mann’s celebrated “hockey stick” as a deliberate falsification of the global temperature facts.

The hockey stick, in case there is a reader unaware, is the graph of precipitous global warming over recent decades, which is the chassis upon which almost all of the global warming hoax wagon has been built. Mann’s iconic hockey stick has been relied upon by the U.N’s I.P.C.C. and Western governments as crucial evidence for the claim of man-made global warming.

 

But Mann refused the court’s order to release the data from which he drew the graph.

As I promised, the Canadian Supreme Court has just recently, after Mann had exhausted all attempts to escape the order, ruled in favour of Dr Ball, not only dismissing Mann’s libel suit but also ordering full costs against Mann. One can expect that the legal fees and court costs for this case, which has been ongoing for years, will amount to millions of Canadian dollars. Mann has not only been publicly disgraced as a fraudulent scientist but, presumably, will also be bankrupted.

Mind you, these global warming alarmist “scientists” receive plenty of money, and that’s why they’re in it.

Mann also initiated libel suits against others who publicly exposed him. It can only be assumed that he will now abandon those suits, making substantial payments to the defendants. Mann’s career and life are in tatters.

And the global warming hoax is now also in tatters. Although with Mann refusing to reveal his data, there has not been an actual exposure of the hockey stick’s deception, there is no conclusion to be drawn other than that the data is either non-existent or is unable to stand scrutiny.

But ‘Comrade’ Jacinda and her band will no doubt carry on regardless, destroying our economy and our lifestyles, because this will be swept under the carpet. Have you seen anything on the tv news? Have you read anything in the (mainstream) newspapers? No. They didn’t want to write about it a couple of years ago, and they’re not writing about it now.

Best that you all spread this around as widely as you can, and alert your politicians that you’re awake to them.
