In case you missed it live, Christopher Monckton spent an entire hour on the Glenn Beck program today on the topic of global warming, skepticism, and the Copenhagen Treaty.
The video is now available.
Watch it below.
I think Lord Monckton did a splendid job.
To see the proposed Copenhagen Treaty, see this essay on the subject here.
Parts 1-7 of the hour long video are below. YouTube has time limits on clips, so it is broken up into parts 1-7.
According to Lord Mockton 90% of Brittan’s laws are made by commisars who they dont elect and they dont hold to account! They are made in secret and the British Parliament is made to pass it. It has no option but to do so.
Why should we democratic sovereign nations surrender our sovereignty, our ability to say no to taxes, and our ability to raise taxes to a secret bureaucratic cabal?
About the funning with the Southern accent :
People from foreign countries like to joke with the US Southern accent. Even in America we do.
My friends from Brazil love to have fun with it.
I try to do an Aussie accent. It ends up being British or something.
Of course they need 15 global warming models.
They need 15 models to distract your attention in an attempt to focus on the “model concensus science”, and pay no attention to programming code they try to keep secret.
Cloaking Device.
I just finished watching the videos. Lord Monckton was amazing. Did you watch Glenn Beck staring when he spoke. I could tell Beck was mezmerized. Lork Monckton stole the show. It was a great piece of reporting on television. It reminded me how television and news reporting used to be. I felt transported back in time. I haven’t felt this way about video journalism since the early years of the Reagan Administration.
Excellent job. Excellent work.
Thank you Lord Monckton.
Not “just now leaving” .. always leaving, always being absorbed, always being mixed, always escaping to space, continuously. In theory, it is possible for the Earth to expel all CO2 to space (not sure what the Earth would look like, perhaps only leaving the iron core behind, but theoretically it could all be finally expelled to space).
Hehehe … “Cloaking Device” … you couldn’t be more correct!
Well said!
If you all couldn’t see Monckton’s love of our countries Constitution and the freedom it affords our citizens, then you must be European.
Enjoyed it all, but would have liked more discussion on legality/implications of signing. Bolton seemed to be saying that Obama would not rush in and sign. Monckton seemed to be saying look out if he does. So how radical is Obama?
Would he wing it, and could congress pull him up if he did? Still not clear to me as I’m not a full bottle on international treaties.
Here in Australia the opposition seem to be moving towards running a negative campaign on the domestic costs of emissions trading instead of brainless acquiescence. It has the prime minister nervous, and I think the US would be no different, although it’s a strategy scientists would rather avoid. But by spearing into politics Monckton is on some ground where a greater range of people can engage with him, the same people who have been saturated with propaganda for 20 years. What do they say about fresh air?
It was a spectacular performance by Lord Monckton. It was hilarious watching Beck and Bolton trying to understand the graphs.
To those looking for the end of the program: click on the 7th YouTube window and skip to 3:45 into it.

Ironic is it not, given that he represents the peerage of the country that you sought to free yourselves from a few years ago, resulting in the constitution in the first place. Meanwhile in poor ole convict Aussieland we are still slaves to some foreign royalty…
Seeing Lord Monckton reminds me so much of “Yes Minister”, which was, after all, Maggie’s favorite show at the time she was PM. Can’t resist another link – I think this one illustrates well how committees report in government (no doubt some relevance in terms of UN reporting):
I just watched this on Fox. Monckton is an eloquent speaker and very smart man. He certainly knows his stuff. He is also passionate about the scientific method.
I like Glen Beck’s presentations. He has a good blend of humour and information. He certainly gets some high powered people to come on his show and speak…. and speak they do.
On the one hand, since the relation between CO2 concentration and increase of temperature is logarithm so 1º F does not require 1/7 of the increase that causes 7º F but a somewhat greater proportion. On the other hand, since the current yearly increase is only 2 ppmv but the total in 90 years is 468 ppmv not 180 ppmv, the rate of increase should be accelerating quite fast. Most probably exponentially. Therefore you can’t calculate the number of years to emit 1 billion by using the current rate of emission, but should consider the rate of acceleration.
this guy is right. there are multiple errors in that calculation!
Dear Anthony, thanks a lot! Sometime in the future, I will teach you to use playlists. See my blog where the following playlist is embedded as one video:
Sorry, the link above was modified. But it will work on my blog.
Thank you – I’ve never seen a show quite like it. Captivating actually, not only because of the content but also that it was going out to so many at last.
Both Bolton and Monckton have a sense of humor that helps. There is a sly grin and a twinkle that put me in mind of WF Buckley Jr. at times.
But beneath the sometimes impish humor I sense a man of real substance and purpose in Monckton – steel like the great lady herself. Al Gore would be walking right into a bear trap.

Oh great! I’m sleeping good tonight… first that old fool gets on Fox and helps assure the continuation of the insane Holy Wars and the shadow government of international bankers…
Now we have the missing volcano that I knew had to be there at the worst of the little ice age. Oh tossing and a turning all night! Anybody know of a good sleep therapy?
These Lindzen graphs actually show, that there is no amplifying effect of the “greenhouse effect” by rising water vapor.
Concept of runaway warming in climate PS3 models says: a bit warming by CO2 – more evaporation – more water vapor in the atmosphere – stronger GH effect – warmer earth – more CO2 released from oceans – more evaporation etc. It is of course nonsense, since every fluctuation should trigger this spiral of warm, like 1998 El Nino, which did not happen.
Models show, that increased temperature generate more humidity which block outgoing LW radiation, which strengthens “GH effect”, which causes increased temperature etc. Actual measurements show that higher temperature means more LW is radiated into the space and it is not blocked by increasing “GH effect”.
The same was observed by measurement of humidity in the upper and middle troposphere, which instead of rising is falling (upper) or constant (medium trop.)
Any other scientific concept in light of conflicting reality should be abandoned or heavily reworked, but AGW pseudoscience – not.
Thanks for posting these, a great watch this Saturday morning. Slightly OT, we’ve just had a professor sacked by the government for not toeing their political line vs the science. This was with regards to classification of rcreational drugs, but you could easily see something similar happening with climate scientists if they spoke out about the AGW hoax.
Man… that whole intereview was so cool! Love the part where Lord Monckton basically tells Al Gore to put up or shut up!
But throughout they were saying “If Obama signs this…”
What do they mean “if”? Of course he’s going to sign it, if for no other reason than to pat himself on the back yet again (well, if he could only get past all the media hands already patting him on the back, then he would do it himself). Does anyone really think he would wait to have the support of the nation? If so, it’ll be a rude awakening for them.
Of course, that was one of Lord Monckton’s points… don’t take the risk in assuming a signed treaty will mean no obligation. And it most certainly WILL have an immediate effect even if it is not enacted right away. The euphoria in the market is looking for something, anything, to blow all the rotten fundamentals that are the “recovery” into an outright mania. The treaty only need be signed, and the pork barrel will hit the fan. That will be bad enough, for that would be the “creative destruction” of carbon-based energy sources. I’ve little doubt much of the trillions that will be doled out will be used to “speculate” oil and coal to the point of, shall we say, encouraging consumers to beg those gods on Capitol Hill to punish Big Oil and Big Coal. That will drive CO2 reductions, as well as all the spending on “alternatives”.
(and for all the talk of redistributing wealth to poorer nations… ha! Why would the elitists care if more human mouths were fed and lived in (pretty much the same if not worse) “better” conditions than before?)
So Lord Monckton is right on the money. Too bad, though, that Obama is going to sign it. There’s no way that he won’t.
But I think one good thing will come of it. In 2012, the nation should be more recptive and accepting of someone like Ron Paul (R-TX) for president.
Hadn’t seen the 1975 Newsweek graph Monckton showed mentioned before:
http://denisdutton.com/newsweek_coolingworld.pdf
but it doesn’t come close to matching the global temp graph at
http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/climate/climate_today.html
Compare the temps in 1910 and 1970 for the most obvious differences.
Same organization, NCAR & UCAR for both graphs
http://www.ucar.edu/ucar/
Either one or the other (or both) was “adjusted” out of sight of the other,
scientists are much more careful with data in 2000 than they were in 1975,
reading glass technology improved the ability to read temp logs,
or there is more than one Earth. Are there other reasons?
I’m leaning toward there being more than one Earth, since modern science has me pretty convinced there is more than one Arctic Ocean.
Alvin (21:57:03) :
Our boy from Corsham has a method for solving x in the equation x = 2 + 2 from 15 random numbers. Watch the video in the middle of this page, there are some highly illuminating throw away phrases in this monologue IMHO.
Maybe someone should produce another entitled “The physics that we don’t know yet” (within or without the context of a ‘Third Culture’ beyond the scientific revolution).
An article about Denis Dutton who’s webpage I referenced
http://denisdutton.com/newsweek_coolingworld.pdf
“Dutton believes that we could be seeing something known as an “informational cascade” — in crude terms, a herd instinct in which we don’t want to risk being seen as wrong, so we agree with what is widely taken as right. A sceptical US scientist, John Christy, also believes that this has happened to fellow scientists in the global-warming debate.”

Radical isn’t the word, Matt. Maniacal would more accurately describe Obama, and yes, he’s maniacal enough to do so against anything the Congress should (but probably will not) say on the matter. So that’s really a moot point. True, many of our representatives are not for this legislation, even if they are AGW-believers. But I will not make the mistake of trusting them after what they did last year with the bank bailouts. The U.S. Constitution has A LOT to say about that, but here we are today with the banking system propped up at the taxpayers expense. All they have to be told is that doing so will save the economy, and the opposition will drop low enough to let anything pass and continued ignoring of the supreme law of the land to be sustained and grown.
