The beginning of the end

EXIT 00
How do they get off a Free Way
Where they forgot to build exits
Exit 00 they see comming yet
No exit exist to use
Fatefull flaw for fast movers.
Wrap the windmills and call it art
Electric cars do not play music
Stock fraud has cases and they hope
John Corzin is a good sign for them.
Exit 00 seen out side the bus window
Late at night with a money hunger hang over
Fear at first, Is this real or something else I made up
Panic for some for days and months now
More than the quite desperation known prior.
A Free Way of No Return
They see, they know, it came
Now they just stare
Stare at you, stare at me, stare at the judge.
Judge has the gavel, raised,,,,

The first part of this song seems to fit:

There is a list, maybe in Heaven, of the human beings who stood up to agw hysteria. Anthony Watts, Steve McIntyre, James Delingpole, JoNova, Willis the eagle, Bob Tisdale, and so many I forget. Vincent Gray is high on that list. Maybe way down at the end I’m on it too
Ther is another list, hopefully in HELL of those who promoted this scam. Mikey Mann, Jimbo Hansen, Seth Borenstein, and especially Al Gore. Dante did not create or imagine an Inferno hot or Cold enought for this bunch.
To me what is significant in this post is simply there has been a quieting of the media, academia, and the political sphere (other then the country idiot, Obama) about agw. More and more media, politico, and even citizens are speaking out about the farce. I smell a tidal wave coming which will wash Mann and his ilk to oblivion and social disgrace. With the internet and 24/7 news the world changes in a blink. Mikey Mann better blink fast, his day is coming.

Maybe you havent seen Obama’s latest tweets about “climate deniers”.
I’m afraid there is a long way to go yet.

The beginning of the End? I doubt it. These pernicious political perversions of science and moral panics tend to linger on for generations. But that it is the end of the beginning I am certain. The damage done is appalling but again that is usual: note how the UK is hurriedly attempting to innoculate against measles purely because of a scientific fraud which got much publicity from the MSM that it was dangerous. The emergency programme will work but people will still die from that unfounded scare which reached it’s peak of twenty years ago.
The unravelling of the groundless CO2 AGW alarmism will take longer, partly because it involves the energy industries which have long time scales, and partly because it still has a corrupt financial base supported by politicians and activists which took thirty years to build: and intended to defraud the hapless citizen: who has little defence against such shenigans.
But nevertheless dying it clearly is, not least because the WWW allowed concerned citizens a voice that they had not had before.
So I doubt it is the beginning of the end but it is a clear signal of the end of the beginning for a whole class of politicians, their financial cronies, their bureaucrats and all their activists and fellow travellers.
It is going to be a whole new world, the WWW you see is returning the power to the people.
Interesting times. .
Kindest Regards

New Peer-Reviewed Scientific Studies Chill Global Warming Fears
Posted By Marc Morano – Marc_Morano@EPW.Senate.Gov – 4:44 PM ET
Washington DC – An abundance of new peer-reviewed studies, analyses, and data error discoveries in the last several months has prompted scientists to declare that fear of catastrophic man-made global warming “bites the dust” and the scientific underpinnings for alarm may be “falling apart.” The latest study to cast doubt on climate fears finds that even a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide would not have the previously predicted dire impacts on global temperatures. This new study is not unique, as a host of recent peer-reviewed studies have cast a chill on global warming fears.

Thankfully this tedious season of “The Great Global Warming Caper” is all but over. The rubenesque diva is reaching into the props box for the hat with the horns and the buses are warming up. Sadly for all the players in this sorry production they will not be moving on to new productions of “Bio-crisis! Bio-crisis! or “Sense and Sustainability”. This is the age of the Internet. They can scrub like Lady Macbeth, they can even use the Scotchbrite, but the filthy stain of AGW advocacy wilt not out. They lied, they censored and they vilified. Every pseudo scientist, journalist, activist, subsidy farmer and politician who promoted or sought to profit from this hoax will be held to account. Sceptics will never forgive and the Internet will never forget.

The Climate Cronies have the pockets of the politicians, the degenerate minds of University intellectuals, and pet media poodles. A very small percentage by head count, compared with their downstream victims.
We have millions of unemployed globally, we have billions looking at energy and food prices ever increasing, while wages and salaries are erroded by casino economics, we have a lot of very intelligent and angry people looking at these Cronies with much wiser eyes.
The Cronies have no control, they are shouting their fairy tales as loud as possible, to drown out the discontented murmur, from the Humanity they betrayed.
All they have is volume.
As Will says…
“Out, out, brief candle! Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Macbeth Quote (Act V, Scene V).
Struts over Climate Cronies. Now comes the long walk to the Gallows.

May-be it’s like Sir Winston Churchill once said: This is not the end, this is not even the beginning of the end, but it is the end of the beginning.
The greenies/warmists will not give that easily. First climate fraud David Viner predicted in 2000 that within decades snow would be a thing of the past. Children just wouldn’t know what snow was. Now the same people are blaming global warming for the terrible cold and heavy snowfall of recent years. Cooling is the new warming. But let’s hope the end of the global warming aka climate change nonsense will come soon. Each day this delusional hoax lasts is a day too many.

I dunno. When rats abandon a sinking ship they find another floating one…

Obama is a dictator.
Congress can’t stop him.
Who you gonna call, the CIA?
The national debt is over $16 trillion, China is buying up oilfields in Texas and if anyone fights back, he will declare martial law.
AGW theory was just another “trojan horse”, it keeps honest scientists busy while the Marxist academics help the CIA organize for the “final solution”.
Meanwhile, oh forget it…
Boston was just a dress rehearsal.
Lenin called for an alliance with Islamic nationalists in 1924.
Communism in Russia is gone now but they still have Muslim terrorists.
The climate has changed, you’re a Muslim now and you don’t even know it.

Dear Dr. Grey,
Thankyou so very much, for your unstinting work in helping bulwark rational science.
At 91 years of age, you deserve your rest but even more-so, you deserve agknowlwedgement that your labours have not been in vain. If not for the strict empirical instincts of an older, wiser, generation of scientists and engineers found frequenting this page, then the presumpion of apriori certitude conjured up from the entrails of non-linear, computer modelled conjecture, might have gone unchallenged in its purported claims at constituting ‘hard’ scientific evidence.
May I join all those priori in offering heartfelt thanks.
With Much Regard.

Such clarity of mind – it is much too early for you to retire. Please keep going until you are 100.

Everyone, make sure you save everything you can, making backup electronic and hard copies, to document the crash when it comes, and tend them well. In 20 years, we will need the evidence of what happened to fend off the next generation of power mad control freaks who want to save us from Catastrophic Global Cooling.

Dear Dr Gray, thank you and all your fellow anti-AGW whom withstood the ‘running of the gauntlet’ that many of us have endured. Australia is still hanging loose, but with a new government in September, we shall see. The present opposition have stated they will remove the carbon tax now at $23 per tonne. James Hansen years ago was promoting nuclear as we have such a huge coast line. But near Ballina, they are burning sugar cane refuse, that is usually burnt anyway by farmers, that is capable of providing electricity for 50,000 homes. Well outside cities most inland townships rarely exceed 50,000 population, and less homes and industries. But it does not get any government subsidies. Google ‘Ballina sugar cane electricity plant’. New Zealand should scrap their carbon tax too. Especially planning to tax agriculture. Moos and baas are nasty little creatures that belch and pass methane? (We do too!) One idiot suggested we farm kangaroos who are methane free instead of cattle and sheep? He was an adviser on the carbon tax debacle to the present government. Didn’t he know, kangaroos are marsupials and are not domesticated, jump fences and withhold mated eggs until the environment is suitable to bear another potential embryonic ‘joey’. He was the person advising the government on carbon tax realizations. Best of luck in your ‘retirement’ we will forever hold you in esteem with our grateful thanks.

To Konrad, very good post, I totally agree, but – what will they do with the existing solar panel subsidies to private homes, and also those land owners who are getting rich from rent on wind turbines. They had a great subsidy for rain water tanks as Oz generally has tap water, other than in some rural areas. (A huge dispersed population too). I put in a 5,000 litre tanks beside my house, to use for washing clothes and flushing one laundry toilet. I got full compensation at the time from the State and Federal governments. Only once in 5 years has the tank almost run out, so it had to be topped up enough by mains water to allow the pump to work. Only for a few weeks though and we managed OK.

In four years there will be a significant climate change. It would seem Obama has great insight after all.
😉

Thanks for your perseverance and honest Dr Gray.
Enjoy putting your feet up and fighting only the battles you chose.
I believe/intuit that this tool we are using, has been the wildcard for myth breaking.
What this ability to communicate, exchange info and access support has done is hard to evaluate.
But you have enabled many others to understand the faults in the IPCC’s selective use of science, this info has travelled around the world many times, mobilized many isolated realists and sped the exposure of this UN scam up by years.
Many commenters here will be surprised how quickly these artists scamper away from an enraged voting public.
As those brainwashed children, heavy handedly indoctrinated to react to a planetary warming, that has not existed in their entire lifetime, what better civics lessons?
Authority lies, attempts to install fear in children, to further their power.What the lesson? Kiddies?

I am a retired engineer with a background in the design and management of scientific studies. Three years ago, out of idle curiosity, I began to snoop around in global warming climatology. To view results from the validation of the IPCC climate models that I assumed to have taken place was the fastest way in which to come up to speed on the science of global warming. Thus, I began my investigation via a Web search on the statistical population underlying these models, for a statistical population was required for validation to have taken place. This search came up with nothing. If there was no statistical population, it was impossible for the climate models to have been validated and thus the methodology of the investigation of global warming that had been conducted by the climatologists could not have been scientific!
My Web search did come up with an article by Vincent Gray. The title of his article was “Spinning the Climate.”
In his article, Vincent described the reaction of IPCC management when he pointed out to them that their climate models were insusceptible to being validated. Their reaction was a deceptive argument of the kind that was known to philosophers as the “equivocation fallacy.” Subsequently, Vincent pointed this out in the article that he entitled “The triumph of doublespeak.” “Doublespeak” was a synonym for “equivocation.”
An “equivocation” is an argument in which a term changes meaning in the middle of this argument. By logical rule, one cannot properly draw a conclusion from an equivocation. To draw a conclusion is the “equivocation fallacy.”
Applications of the equivocation fallacy are the sole basis for alarm about CO2 emissions. We have Vincent to thank for alerting us to this deception.

I wish it were the beginning of the end, but as long as the global warmers are rolling in dough they will crank out the junk and the press releases, all to be lapped up by a gullible public and journalists who pander to them.

You are right to now focus on the actions of individuals. This issue from its inception has been created and driven by people, and their particular motives and requirements, not as many continue to have the delusion, people whose core position is always regard for truth as expressed through scientific processes, and the integrity of any application of that. Whilst that personal or collective element is to some degree is part of anything in society, in this case it is and always has been dominant.
Many individuals involved in this are perfectly aware of this, and it is the ultimate determinant of their actions. They have killed, are killing, and intend to continue to kill. For reasons of self-interest.
There are no excuses: no-one can now say “I didn’t know”. Not to hold these people to account would be the ultimate travesty – confirmation that if structural advantage can be gained, immunity is assured, and anything at all can occur.
It is existentially vital to hold these people to account.

—————————————-
While Sun Tzu’s art of war indicates that you should always leave your enemy an avenue of escape, this is not possible for AGW supporters in the age of the Internet. The collapse of the AGW hoax is going to be very painful for some, but the pain of the few should not outweigh the needs of the many.
The fall of AGW hoax has been a significant test of freedom of speech and the power of the individual. Those at the endangered atmosphere conference never anticipated the Internet when they laid their plans. Those involved in the hoax should not be allowed to escape unscathed. The reason is is that it will send a vey clear message to any who would try something similar in the future.
That said, while the environmental movement and climate science have effectively destroyed themselves, some of their goals and science are still needed. Real pollution and environmental damage appears to be an accelerating problem in the developing world. We also need real climate science to deal with the issues raised for agriculture in the coming solar cycle 25. The only solution is new people.

Janice Moore says: ‘VICTORY is assured.’
Yes – but at what a cost!

@ Konrad says:
April 25, 2013 at 11:49 pm
I am not sure that any parallels with a war, with two distinct and essentially foreign armies facing each other is applicable here. In such a (cliched) situation, one army is vanquished and allowing an escape is prudent and without cost because they abandon the ground, allowing it to be occupied by the the victor.
This situation is not like that, it is better seen as an army (humanity and/or a society) which has been infiltrated by traitors. These traitors have inserted themselves into significant positions. When discovered, in any army, they are dealt with. Ruthlessly and completely. And it is essential that this be so.
For all the unrelenting hype and propaganda, the numbers of people involved here are very very small. There are significant numbers of camp followers, but these in themselves are insignificant compared to the settled or uninvolved population.
There are others in ancillary roles whose claim would be “we service any army”. Their culpability is generally debatable.
The actual protagonists are tiny in relation to a world population of 7 billion, and tiny in any one country in which they are based. Their strength is entirely in the structural positioning they have been able to attain. If revealed for what they are, that disappears. They are then entirely vulnerable. And it is beholden on society to then judge and dispose of them in a manner that does not need to take any protestations they make, or prior structural advantage they had, into account at all.
This then is purely a matter of societal will.
I completely agree that the advent of the internet, both as communication and as record, changes everything. There can be no escape from this. What at a different time could be obscured and avoided now cannot.
As to new people, clearly. But not just that, new (to current practice) standards and values and a rigor in maintaining them in the face of the “inconvenient” whether personal or political.

This is the sort of stuff that needs to be collected, collated, and highlighted. There is, on the record, sufficient in the way of claims and actions for significant numbers of these people – Pachauri among them – to be discredited.
The whole AGW program can be rejected purely on the basis of previous statements and revised statements, which illustrate the emptiness of any scientific claims and the character of those making them.

“Whether or not it is the beginning of the end or just the “end of the beginning,” VICTORY is assured.”
I wish I shared your enthusiasm. While there are many indications that the general population is becoming less trusting and accepting of the hype, most in government are forging ahead, as their endeavors yield both votes and power. Policies rarely make sense, and they are not something that we, as a population, get to vote on or control.
California?…full steam ahead.
Mass?…full steam ahead.
Obama?…full steam ahead.
etc, etc.
Look at ethanol? Scientifically shown to be at best neutral to the environment, and pretty good consensus that it’s in fact harmful, no only to the environment, but many other aspects of the economy. Yet the U.S. gov is getting ready to INCREASE the mandate from 10% to 15% ethanol content in gasoline. Does the majority want this to happen? No. Would anyone with knowledge of the facts want this to happen? No. Will the government do it anyway? You bet.
And I’m an optimist.

Money, money, money, follow the money, for that’s what the global warming crowd has done for years. As long as tax dollars flow to global warming schemes, the parasites will swarm to those schemes.
Conversely, if the taxpayers wise up (and they are currently doing just that), they are likely to quite suddenly boot from office everyone complicit in raising their taxes for the past few decades while raising the price of all energy sources at the same time. When that day comes, and it will, the newly-governing parties will need to do one thing to put an end to the entire matter.
Cut off the global warmist’s lifeblood, i.e., cut off the money. Zero out every budget that is supporting a warmist, whether that be a builder of windmills or solar panels, or a university professor building hockey sticks, or an environmental agency in full cahoots with the crowd for years, or an advisor advising more green projects, or a manufacturer of green cars. Zero them all out, no matter how crucial their services appear.
Then, as it becomes obvious that their departments were doing at least some good, somewhere, gradually add back funding to only those functions. But first, go to zero. It’s the only way to clear out the rot. Otherwise, they will just lay low and fester, screwing things up to the best of their abilities, certain to rise again when the politics change and funding loosens once more.
Leftist love government, and are perfectly willing to spend significant portions of their miserable lives laying in wait, performing no useful function as long as they receive a taxpayer-funded check, so long as a shot remains at regaining power once again. Zero them out. No funding. Zero, Nada, Zilch. A zero budget is the only wooden stake that will work for a Leftist.
As just one example of the futility of making modest cuts, observe the present air traffic control fiasco in the U.S. as a result of a mild attempt to simply restrain the growth of Leftist funding. A devout Leftist will risk your life, or at least your livelihood, for funding dollars in a heartbeat. Zeroing out the funding of the Left is the only practical solution in the end.

When I read happy climate stories like this, I always like to remind myself and review the ONLY cool thing the Global Warmunists ever actually produced (surprising there is even one valuable thing they produced since they are decidedly anti-productivity but here it is): Ladies and Gentlemen from LiveEarth 2007 (sponsored by Dow Chemical), The New Rebirth of Spinal Tap Mark 3 and every bassist in the known universe! http://youtu.be/iN42uzNFVmQ

The picture accompanying this post reminded me of a sign I saw in Amarillo, Texas – oddly enough outside a private residence named “Toad Hall”:

Thanks for your good work, Vincent. Much appreciated.
I have the same feeling that we are seeing a sea change in the debate at the moment.
The alarmists seem to be faltering, no news, now new books, no revelatory research. More and more they are getting caught trying to prop up their hypothesis through questionable methods.
Temperatures are not rising, climate sensitivity is on its way down. No extreme weather events to speak of. No climate refugees. No desertification. Sea level rises as it always has. No accelleration.
So one has to agree that we are seeing the beginning of the end of the climate paradigm.
A well chosen time for a well deserved retirement!

Thank you sir for continuing the struggle for truth.
I read the “Delingpole” link. I’d seen it,
I pressed “next” though and read a fabulous article about Margaret Thatcher recanting her initial fervor for global warming action. She saw the light, finally.
As an American, this was my only criticism of her. Now it’s gone.
RIP Margaret Thatcher, fellow truthseeker, (aka skeptic).

Thank you for this article. I have been flabbergasted by the silence from all us skeptics for so long now. The reason is that sensible, hard working people get on with their lives. Pompous, socialist, parasites have all the time in the world to spread their idiotic rubbish. Forget “hockey sticks”…… Bring out the baseball bats. I am truly concerned for the future my children face. Even the more sensible of the worlds leaders have been bullied into believing this drivel.

Reblogged this on RONNIE JAMES SITE.

Most on-line debates now see alarmists very quickly resorting to the same few old standby arguments:
“….97% of climate scientists say …. “,
“…. you think it is a conspiracy….”
and “… Skeptical Science says…..”
Thankfully we are seeing fewer “…. superstorm Sandy…” and “…droughts and/or floods…”.
But, the “…ocean temperature…” and the “….sea level…” memes still pop up occasionally.
My guess is their ‘proofs’ are starting to ring hollow in their own ears.
