How Much Would Climate Change Cost?

How bad are carbon offsets when the Washington Post has a negative article about them? On the Internet, erasing your role in climate change seems as easy as ordering a DVD — and cheaper than a cup of coffee a day. With a click, a credit card and $99, visitors can pay a Silver Spring […]

Low Emissions = Happiness (?)

Global Warming Today: China The Worst

Which begs the question, will the liberal GWACBM disciples go after China like they go after America?

Today’s Global Warming Flashback

Let's take a look back, shall we? From 18,000 B.C. to around 3,000 B.C., the sea levels rose approximately 325-350 feet. Yes, the […]

Global Warming Hysterics Love Freedom

Well, not really. The Weather Channel’s most prominent climatologist is advocating that broadcast meteorologists be stripped of their scientific certification if they express skepticism about predictions of manmade catastrophic global warming.
