(California Governor) Jerry Brown launches website to rebut climate change skeptics
Sacramento Bee ^ | August 13, 2012 | David Siders

Gov. Jerry Brown said today that "humanity is getting dangerously close to the point of no return" on climate change, and he launched a website criticizing conservatives who dispute its significance.

The website "Climate Change: Just the Facts," is hosted by Brown's Office of Planning and Research. It devotes one page to "the denialists" and another to rebutting "common denialist arguments."

"Global warming's impact on Lake Tahoe is well documented. It is just one example of how, after decades of pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, humanity is getting dangerously close to the point of no return," Brown said in a prepared statement. "Those who still deny global warming's existence should wake up and honestly face the facts."

When does the “coming ice age” from the 70s hit?

Brown sure looks like he has past the point of no return. Getting back to the science -

Apparently Governor Brown, you’ve never visited the weather station at Lake Tahoe

Everyone complains about the weather, but only Liberals try to legislate it.

Nice find.

This is a transparent and desperate attempt to enforce cap and trade through the Pacific Carbon Exchange. Billions of $$ at issue.

Brown expected to make millions from California Facebook stock. Oh well. Kalifornia has more corrupt bookies then can be counted.

IIRC, Ban-ki Moon said in 2009 (before Climategate) that failure to pass a treaty in Copenhagen would mean it was too late to prevent global warming.

Notice that the relationship between temperature and CO2 is assumed and never documented.

Unfortunately, millions of years of data from Antarctic core samples show that CO2 increases ALWAYS lag temperature increases by centuries or millennia - the OPPOSITE of what global warming alarmists claim.

Didn’t we pass the point of no return a couple of years ago?

Not me, I plan to stay around long enough to piss on his grave!
