While not as bad as the horrid 10:10 video exploding children, I have to wonder this about the actual scientists that participated in this farce: what were you thinking ?
Of course, it does seem some circles in climate science are all about bling, and cheerleaders, and labeling people with ugly insulting profanity these days. So maybe, this is simply “state of the art”. The phrase “Real Climate Scientists” is used…hmm.
Watch this video from Australia (warning – profanities)
The lyrics are available here at the website where they made the video.

This is actually comedic that they think this will work. It is obviously aimed at High School age teens and not adults. How much lower will they sink to try to make people believe them?
Notice how young they were? Not just that you would need to be immature to do it in the first place but these people hanen’t been on the ship too long and the ship is in trouble – so is the career
Global warming and vulgarity both in the lyrics, perfect for an appearance at the White House Poetry conference, alongside the rapper invited to it that sings about killing policemen.
“In an odd way this is cheering news !”
Surely this video was made by sceptics to make “climate scientists” look bad?
/sarc
Hmm. They’re so cool, when they say ‘Yo’ it sounds like it will be followed by ‘ho-ho.’
If the rap video is too hip or crude for you, here is a pretty staid and conservative perspective with similar conclusions:

“RE: Hayek vs. Keynes: False dichotomy; both methodologies fail in the end. Economies are not car tires either.”
Hayek won his Nobel Prize [when that actually meant something] for explaining the inteaction between social policies and the economy. Not really so different from JM Keynes. The problem is that their remedies are disregarded by policy makers.
Ugh! What a shame. It just proves what we already knew about AGW “scientists.”
Anthony, I know you don’t control the ads, but google chose to have a rather saucey ad for “filipino cupid” when I opened up this thread.
Either they picked up on the subject matter (the word “profanities”?)… or maybe there’s something in my cookies…? ][Blush]
Hmm dubious isn’t the word. Did they get such drivel peer reviewed by everyone in the office? Seemed like a good idea at the time, like blowing up school kids…
I had the pleasure of walking past their ‘bunker’ at UNSW a few months back whilst attending a Kumon presentation ceremony in which my two boys got achievement awards. Now Kumon is the real deal, what some of the children were able to do was truly breath taking.
Was that (c)rap video peer reviewed? 😉
You may have noticed the “climate researchers” from that video were from organisations that promote global warming alarmism and should be considered as deniers of natural climate influences.
And that was shown on the Hungry Beast show via Australia’s ABC, a global warming propaganda network.
This is my Global Warming Video
This is desperate, desperate stuff! In years to come our children will feel great embarrasement at this current generation. How could sensible people have let this scam thrive for so long.

*Climate science funding and prestige (Phil Jones, Michael Mann)
*Politicians’ desire for more control and taxes (EU, USA, Australia)

George Orwell had the year wrong, and everything else correct. Lord help us all. Brainwashing at the lowest level.

I’d been watching “Cloverfield” before the video, so my anti-gorge-rise muscles were fully warmed up. Didn’t want to press my luck, though, so I stopped at 58 seconds. Keyboards don’t like hydrochloric acid. Congratulations to dwright if he made it the full minute, 60.0.

Hey, hey, hey, careful there! That was genuine slap-your-thighs, hold-your-ribs and gasp-for-breath kind of entertainment back in the day for a lot of us behind the Iron Curtain. When you blew a year’s salary and waited twice as long for that brand-new COLOR Zenit tv the size of a Prius, and you had only two channels to choose from, with maybe three hours of programming per day to be interrupted with power outages and brown-outs, you got to appreciate this stuff. Plenty of vodka or slivovits helped a bit too.
Another own goal, with lyrics from a toilet wall.
So, a video produced on my Aussie tax dollar (by our national broadcaster, no less), broadcast nationally last night and featuring ‘climate scientists’ who, I’ll wager, are employed in their day jobs on my Aussie tax dollar as well!
I don’t so much mind the “message” – because it is nigh on incomprehensible in any event – what I really object to is that it’s just not entertaining on any level.
Well, that was sure convincing. It’s aimed at the same crowd that the “vote-mob” clowns try to appeal to. Bouncing around like enthusiastic juvenile nitwits presented, at best, a convincing argument for raising the voting age.
Koch Industries finally gets its act together. Welcome to the reservation! Thank God for coal and oil. Where would we be today withouth them?

Quite silly indeed, except the part where they ‘dissed’ shock jock alan jones…i can live with that part.
Glen of Aus – Progressivism is like a progressive disease. Its gets worse as it progresses!
The interesting thing about these ‘academics’ is that the more they fight for their belief/religion in AGW the more they support the Marxist/Socialist/Progressive agenda and the closer they get to having the freedom of expression/speech rights which enable them to make such a video, taken away from them. Imbeciles really!
Can’t believe that is what our Tax Payer funded TV propaganda machine is producing.
It you weren’t told it was real… you would actually think it was created by the “Deniers/Realists” as a satire against “Climate Scientists” but the sad part is, they did it to themselves.
Much like the 10:10 video, the whole “do it cause I say” is just so insulting that I think people are starting to wake up.
If the “Deniers/Realists” can produce figures and ask for debate, why can’t the “Climate Scientists” rise and produce their data, debate their results…. because sadly they have none.
I think alot of Deniers/Reslists were Luke Warmists early 2000, as the data was supporting a theory (however it was only a snapshot) so now over the last 10 years we have seen the rest of the data and have made the conclusion that it was indeed cyclic and “Move on nothing to see here”. However those who have made a career/industry off this “theory” are trying their hardest to keep it going.
The biggest laugh was when American (and sadly Australian) government keep talking about Climate Changes = Jobs….. errr…. that wasn’t the point…. Climate Change was meant to mean disaster (loss of cities, deaths by increases extreme weather, droughts etc), now it seems the only “spin” they can put on it is “increasing” the jobs and economy. There is another way to do that right…. run the country with a lightweight governing body, not run it as a controlling socialist motherland.
*sigh* had my spat, just to add to the millions of others disappointed with where the “new world order” is going
Mmmm… they can’t even spell the name of one of their “climate scientists”. This one:

Be wary of taking this at face value.
