"Carbon (Dioxide) trading is now the fastest growing commodities market on earth.....And here’s the great thing about it. Unlike traditional commodities markets, which will eventually involve delivery to someone in physical form, the carbon (dioxide) market is based on lack of delivery of an invisible substance to no-one. Since the market revolves around creating carbon (dioxide) credits, or finding carbon (dioxide) reduction projects whose benefits can then be sold to those with a surplus of emissions, it is entirely intangible."

This blog has been tracking the 'Global Warming Scam' for over ten years now. There are a very large number of articles being published in blogs and more in the MSM who are waking up to the fact the public refuse to be conned any more and are objecting to the 'green madness' of governments and the artificially high price of energy. This blog will now be concentrating on the major stories as we move to the pragmatic view of 'not if, but when' and how the situation is managed back to reality. To quote Professor Lindzen, "a lot of people are going to look pretty silly"

Patrick Moore Reports ‘Enemy of the State’ Greenpeace to the FBI

Breitbart

Patrick Moore has reported Greenpeace–the charity he co-founded in the 1970s–to the FBI for what he claims are a series of offences, including “outright breach of the RICO, wire-fraud, witness-tampering and obstruction-of-committee statutes.”

"As Happer told Moore, “I was suspicious about the email exchange from the start, so I wrote every response assuming that it might be public someday. But what I wrote expressed exactly what I believed to be true.”
Moore has published a full account of the sting operation here.
What’s clear is that every stage Happer’s behaviour was morally and scientifically unimpeachable.
Happer stressed from the start that his opinion could not be bought – that is, he would only say in his paper what he believed anyway."

 

Climate Hustle: The Perfect Antidote To Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth

Breitbart
One of the key myths it demolishes is the one established by Al Gore in his pimped-up power point lecture, An Inconvenient Truth, where he climbs onto a scissor lift to show how dramatically – and apparently unprecedentedly – CO2 levels have risen in the late Twentieth Century with inevitably disastrous consequences for the planet.
This scaremongering claim by Gore is a perfect example of what presenter Marc Morano means by the “Climate Hustle”: just like in a card game where tricksters use sleight-of-hand, distraction techniques, and dirty tricks in order to con the mark (the mug punter) out of his money, so the alarmist establishment is withholding key details and presenting false or distorted information in order to extract vast sums from the gullible public.
In this case, the details that Gore isn’t giving us are
1. Almost invariably throughout geological history, CO2 increases have lagged rises in temperature not preceded them. In other words, it’s more likely that global warming causes increased CO2 rather than that increased CO2 causes global warming.
2. Current carbon dioxide levels are minuscule compared to what they were in our deep geological past. As several earth scientists testify in the movie, our planet is – in terms relative to the past – “CO2-starved”.

Cruz blasts 'alarmists' at climate change hearing

The Hill
“I am the son of two mathematicians,” Cruz said in his opening statements. “I believe that public policy should follow the actual science and the actual data and evidence, and not political and partisan claims that run contrary to the science and data and analysis.”
Cruz told the story of a scientific ship that got stuck in Antarctic ice in the summer of 2013, and said that climate “alarmists” predicted that there would be no ice that year.
“On Christmas Eve, they became stuck in ice, ice that the climate-industrial complex had assured us had vanished,” he said.
Cruz, chairman of a Commerce Committee subpanel, repeatedly referred to satellite data that showed a long pause in global warming, data that recent studies have rebuked.
“According to the satellite data, there has been no significant global warming for the past 18 years,” he said. “Those are the data. Global-warming alarmists don’t like these data. They are inconvenient to their narrative. But facts and evidence matter.”

Desperate Obama working the phones for climate deal in Paris

JunkScience
President Obama has talked about climate change with at least three world leaders in the last four days while international negotiators in Paris hash out a final deal on global warming. 
White House press secretary Josh Earnest said Obama talked with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday to discuss the progress on a United Nations climate pact.

He also talked about the climate work with Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff on Monday, the White House said, with the pair discussing “their personal commitment to reach an ambitious climate change agreement and their interest in working together to drive success.” Obama and French President François Hollande also touched on the climate conference during a call on terrorism Saturday, the White House said.
“He's following this quite closely, he's getting regular updates from his team in Paris about the status of the negotiations,” Earnest said Tuesday. “So it's something that he continues to follow closely."

Online Spiegel Survey Reveals 60% Of Germans Say Cheap Diesel Fuel Is Good, Or Needs To Be Even Cheaper!

NoTricksZone
In Europe, especially Germany, diesel engines are quite popular. The oil-burning combustion motors get far better fuel mileage and the price of fuel in the country is some 20% cheaper than gasoline – thanks to lower taxes."

Paris Climate Talks Are Doomed Because China Knows ‘Climate Change’ Is A Hoax

Breitbart
China sees it as a brilliant opportunity to fleece the gullible gwailo for as much money as it can, to burnish its international image by making all the right green noises, and to blackmail the West into providing it with free technology.
But it has no intention whatsoever of sacrificing economic growth by reducing its carbon dioxide emissions.  ...................
That’s because China understands – as the West pretends not to – that CO2 and “pollution” are very different things.
Not only do the goals of reducing carbon emissions and air pollution not reinforce each other, they conflict. Carbon dioxide is a colourless, odourless, tasteless gas that does not harm health. Efforts to reduce it rely on un-proven abatement technologies, and are prohibitively expensive. In contrast, abating air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide rely on proven technologies and are relatively inexpensive."

Climate proponent: “Why not a war on global warming?”

WUWT
Anthropology professor Wade Davis wants to declare war on global warming, comparing the battle against CO2 to military conflict in WW2.  ...................The truth is the world, or at least the Western world, is already pretty much on a wartime footing against global warming. People are getting fed up with the cost of it all, with the blazing hypocrisy of our jetset planetary saviours. They are also fed up with the fact the problems of global warming are largely imaginary, invented by fools and profiteers."

The Left's Imaginary Enemy of Climate Change

The Hockey Schtick
Here again the same dishonest pattern is at work. The semantic trick in the phrase “climate change”—allowing every climate anomaly to serve as further proof of the overall theory. The hysteria generated by an imperceptible temperature rise of 1.7 degrees Fahrenheit since 1880—as if the trend is bound to continue forever, or is not a product of natural variation, or cannot be mitigated except by drastic policy interventions. The hyping of flimsy studies—melting Himalayan glaciers; vanishing polar ice—to press the political point. The job security and air of self-importance this provides the tens of thousands of people—EPA bureaucrats, wind-turbine manufacturers, litigious climate scientists, NGO gnomes—whose livelihoods depend on a climate crisis. The belief that even if the crisis isn’t quite what it’s cracked up to be, it does us all good to be more mindful about the environment.
And, of course, the chance to switch the subject. If your enemy is global jihad, then to defeat it you need military wherewithal, martial talents and political will. If your enemy is the structure of an energy-intensive global economy, then you need a compelling justification to change it. Climate dystopia can work wonders, provided the jihadists don’t interrupt too often.
Here’s a climate prediction for the year 2115: Liberals will still be organizing campaigns against yet another mooted social or environmental crisis. Temperatures will be about the same."

The Greatest Scientific Fraud Of All Time -- Part IX

manhattancontrarian.com
Of course, the last thing you'd want to do before agreeing that "the Earth is warming" would be to look at the data.  Well, maybe just a peak?  Here's the latest satellite temperature record from UAH, from the time they first put up the satellites in 1979 and going right up to yesterday: ............So 40,000 people, all on government payroll, meet in Paris to seek to put over on the world's people a spending/control program of multi-trillions of dollars, all based on so-called "facts" that all are required to believe but are contradicted by the best available data.  Our primary media sources systematically suppress the data.  Yes, the world truly has gone mad."

Developing Countries: We want a Trillion Dollars to Sign your Climate Agreement

WUWT
LDCs (least developed countries) have forwarded an invoice for $1 trillion dollars, to be paid between 2020 – 2030, in order to meet their climate goals."

UN climate talks: the ritual

Luboš Motl -The Reference Frame
Every intelligent or wise person knows that this whole ritual is complete nonsense. Intelligent or wise people may differ in their estimate of the climate sensitivity – the expected warming of the globe contributed by each doubling of CO2 in the air. But regardless of the value which is not known exactly, it is spectacularly obvious that no one will rationally make the economic sacrifices justified by the tiny downward changes of the temperature. ....................While all sane people and people with at least average intelligence know very well that any similar plan to reduce the harmless gas is a complete insanity, politicians from the U.S., Western Europe, and many other corners of the world systematically visit these meaningless meetings and try to "fight the climate change". This fact is a sad proof that – by reelecting all sorts of Obamas and related political kitsch – similar breathtaking imbecile voters have de facto conquered the world. They are commanding us. We need to get rid of this baggage ................These aggressive imbeciles, and not CO2, are what threatens the intelligent life on Earth."



Obama Is Correct, Climate Change Is Biggest Threat, But Only Because Official IPCC Climate Science Is Completely Wrong

WUWT
There are insufficient superlatives to describe the disaster that is the UN COP21 Climate Conference in Paris. None of the superlatives are the ones used by the organizers and their lackeys. It is the largest, most political conference ever, based on completely false claims deliberately created in the greatest science deception in history. It will cost more socially in direct damage to individual lives, communities, and social structures. It will cost more in economic damage to jobs, businesses, and industry. In addition, besides destroying lives it will remove freedom and actually cost lives. It will weaken economies preventing resistance to terrorism. This far exceeds any potential damage from terrorism and is much worse because it is self-inflicted"

Sea Level Fraud At NASA

Real Science
Nearly everything NASA says about climate is fraudulent, and their claims about sea level are no exception. Their sea level data agreed with the 1990 IPCC report until about 1920, but  after 1920 NASA turned a measured reduction in sea level rise rates into an acceleration. The 1990 IPCC report said that sea level was rising from 1.0-1.2 mm/year, and had not accelerated in the 20th century. The criminals at NASA have tripled the rate of sea level rise to 3.24 mm/year. "

Why are 150 world leaders, 40,000 delegates and all the usual luvvies fiddling around with climate 'change' while ISIS makes the world burn?

Daily Mail
But the Americans and Canadians have been perfectly clear. This Treaty on Climate Change Emissions is not going to be legally binding. And, in fact, it is not going to be a treaty at all. It is just hot air and paperwork. You'd think hot air is the last thing the climate needs. With America and Canada already greasing themselves to slide out of any deal, India and China are oiling themselves up to do the same. .......
Climate-change scientists have been shivering in their short-sleeved shirts to find excuses for why the earth hasn't warmed as predicted.They hugely exaggerated the impact of climate change. The last IPCC report showed an increase of just 0.05 C per decade, despite CO2 emissions rising. Scientists are floundering. Having worked at the Met Office, I can tell you their salaries depend on climate change being real. Now that they don't even bring us the weather on the BBC, and climate change is looking dodgy, do we really want to go on paying for their super-computers? I don't think the average taxpayer really cares. I certainly don't. Of course we want to make our homes efficient and shout at our kids to turn the lights off. We all fight over the thermostat — him down, her up. But right now, with terror on our doorstep and ISIS in our midst, should world leaders be chatting about climate change as a top priority? Whilst sea ice is growing and global temperatures are stalling, and India and China belch out gas like a old woman with IBS, wouldn't you rather have a rebate on the £112 you are charged to make the world a greener place?
I would."
