Global Warming and Energy

Frauds have been blaming ordinary droughts on global warming. Now they're blaming increased rainfall on global warming. Being a global warming fraud means any ordinary weather event supports your cause, even when they're polar opposites.

Monckton exposes the logical fallacies promoted by the frauds.

"Besides, there has been no global warming for 18 years; sea level has risen for eight years at just 1.3 in/century; notwithstanding Sandy, hurricane activity is at its least in the 33-year satellite record; ocean heat content is rising four and a half times more slowly than predicted; global sea-ice extent has changed little; Himalayan glaciers have not lost ice; and the U.N.’s 2005 prediction of 50 million “climate refugees” by 2010 was absurd. The evidence does not support catastrophism."

That's a nice, concise summary.

Evidence that the National Climatic Data Center keeps two sets of temperatures.

An another example of the decivilizing effect of government.

"The new Dodge Dart – a much smaller car, equipped with a much smaller four-cylinder engine – gets exactly the same 36 MPG on the highway as the ’76 Dart Lite/Feather Duster. This is startling, given the new Dart has the benefit of almost four decades of engineering advances – including such things as a six-speed manual transmission, direct port fuel injection and vastly better aerodynamics. Yet the 2013 car only manages to match the mileage of the 1976 car – a much larger car, with a much larger engine fed by a carburetor and without even an Atari-level computer running the show.   "

37 years of technological advance, but nothing to show for it.

"This is seriously sad. Tragic, even. It’s also a measure of how much progress hasn’t been made since the mid-1970s as regards vehicle design. Or rather, a measure of how much progress in engineering and design has been obviated, negated or otherwise rendered “net zero gain” (or loss) by government diktats. Everything from weight-adding “safety” diktats to thou-must-burn-corn-alcohol-laced fuel diktats (which have reduced the fuel efficiency of new cars by 3-4 MPG, on average, relative to what they’d otherwise achieve if they were fed 100 percent gas)."

The government takes our money then uses it to drag down our lifestyles and our civilization.

"For about $2,441 more  – the price of a new Dart vs. the cost-when-new of a ’76 Dart – you get the exact same 36 MPG."

And a smaller car.
