Unfortunately the liberals in power have not got the message that global warming is a hoax. I agree it is the greatest scam of our generation but nobody in power wants to hear a dissenting view.

“Weather Service’s own requirement of being 30 meters away from artificial heating or reflecting sources such as pavements or building.”

I would be shocked if even temperatures 30 meters from a brick building or asphalt parking lot; didn’t show at least 1 degree warmer than something measured much further away.

Nice post though.

Sadly the global warming hoax will give us the largest tax increase in history if the carbon cap and trade bill is enacted. Perhaps Americans will realize how they have been hoodwinked when they are taxed every time they switch on a light and throw the bums out of Congress and the White house.

Over the past several years, it appeared that our society was doomed to succumb to what Weather Channel founder John Coleman has described as "the greatest scam in history": anthropogenic (human-caused) global warming (AGW)... the passage of legislation causing some form of economy-crippling energy taxation seemed to be a foregone conclusion. But then came the unexpected: a recession brought on and exacerbated by the heavy hand of government, and a second consecutive severe winter. Indeed, we may look back and see that our current financial crisis and Mother Nature were the saviors of free-market capitalism. They may have slowed the statist steamroller long enough for the proponents of climate realism to make such socialistic schemes as "cap and trade" understood for what they are and what they are not. They are not about anything to do with global warming or climate change. They are instead a massive transfer of wealth from the productive to those who will not adopt free markets. While the primary promoters of the warming hoax have not "broken and run" yet, there is much evidence that there is an increasing tide of defectors and that climate catastrophists have completely run out of dry powder.

Thanks Coleus and neverdem.

The best way to regulate CO2 emissions is to regulate the production of fossil fuels.

Coal mines, oil and gas wells would only be allowed to produce so much. This is not being done or even proposed. Why do you suppose that is?

Simple: There's no tax money in it for the politicians.
