An urgent message from Santa
These green people never seem to learn. A couple of years ago it was nutball David Suzuki and his fundraising drive to “save” Santa’s home from melting:
Now, not to be outdone in the “please send money cuz Santa’s home is dying” meme, Greenpeace has produced a video that looks like a cross between the Blair Witch Project and Doomsday Preppers. Only one problem: it is so stupid even CNN is mocking it. Watch:
CNN has this story from Jeanne Moos that rips into Greenpeace for this video.
Moos characterizes the alarmists at Greenpeace and elsewhere as folks who “believe in global warming.” Their tendency to embrace human-caused climate doomsday scenarios (like Bad Santa hiding from climate change in the bunker) is akin to a religious belief, unaffected by the reality of observations and data.
In the CNN video, Moos quoted a commenter at the YouTube post of the Greenpeace video who wrote:
Hope that you are proud of yourselves green piece (sic) for scaring innocent children with your bully boy tactics as usual.
That’s right. CNN cited a critic of Greenpeace in its story. That represents amazing progress for truth (if not grammar) in MSM coverage of the climate issue.
Here’s another taste of Moos’ CNN-approved mockery of Greenpeace and what she said was a “sorry excuse for a Santa”:
It looks like a hostage video, but instead of Al Qaida, it’s Santa.
Ouch!
The kicker: When you put an email address into the website that Greenpeace is pitching in the video http://www.savesantashome.org/ it immediately becomes like the Obamacare website, asking for more personal information:
I wouldn’t wish being stuck in Greenpeace’s marketing database on my worst enemy.
Meanwhile, Arctic sea ice is within 1 standard deviation of normal:

Chicken Noodle Network showed me a Maserati advert. before playing the video.
That’s style.
Shades of 1987 in Oz with the AIDS threat bursting upon us so have a laugh at the usual catastrophism-
Yes indeed Jim Carter of Downton Abbey and Greenpeace. He appeared last Sunday on the Andrew Marr show (BBC) along with Shami Chakrabarti another Greepeace supporter (normal BBC balance). The video was shown and greatly appreciated. Turned off after that couldn’t bear any more especially as they then started on about the Greenpeace lot locked up in Russia.
Because of Greenpeace there will be no more chimneys for Santa to deliver the toys and some children will go without 🙂

“I also commented on the Youtube discussion thread, I take issue with them targeting children, my kids (2 & 6) woul1d be terrified if they saw this. I drew a fair amount of flack for commenting, this response where the targeting of children is apparently justified…”
People who believe in CAGW only care about two things: Money and Fame. That’s it. They couldn’t care less about kids and the future generations. In fact, Millenials are beginning to figure out that the delusional CAGW scientists and their sycophants in business and the media have screwed them over by attempting to destroy our economy with onerous regulations, carbon taxes, and “green” energy boondoggles…
DMI is only 1 standard deviation yet you got into trouble with that 2 standard deviation business. Why does the DMI deserve special treatment . over at Arctic sea ice blog graphs the DMI links to the old DMI that you were forced to change and it was way up when I last looked.
Interestingly Neven had it mislabeled as 30% from the old graph on the new graph whereas you have it correctly labeled.
Neven very quiet and Tamino invisible , amazing.
Of course normal people should put the kiddies to bed but for the usual suspects and their kids here’s a bit more of your Disneyland for kids (with due apologies to the memory of Walt)-
Oh Dear! Does the Earl of Grantham know what his butler has been up to?

The trouble with these famous & thus relatively wealthy entertainment types is that they end up looking like complete & utter fools, never to be taken seriously again!
Watching the Arctic sea ice page I noticed that recently there was a weird dip, I say weird because there doesn’t appear to be anything like it in the previous years and without it the picture would probably be a lot different.
Can anyone enlighten me?
I really want to thank the people who pulled this off;

Thanks, Jeanne Moos. Well done.

When the AMO heads to cool phase(not as warm now then in past 5 years)the Ice will become just like it was in 1979 when satellite ice data started.
============
Satellite data started before 1979. Here is a link that shows satellite data from 1974.
http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2013/10/30/smoking-gun-that-the-temperature-record-is-fraudulent/#more-97626
As you can see the 1979 data start point is a “cherry picked” point.
Ha ha … impression was that this was Fidel Castro … could not watch the whole thing though, too ‘dark’ and artistically it was vacuous w/ZERO redeeming qualities …
H/T to MWG for previously posting this, too.

‘So that Santa can make sure you are taken off his naughty list please tell us a bit more about yourself:’
Yeah riiiight! http://www.mako.org.au/report.html
Agreed; just watched (viewed!) a few of her reports including the cat ‘skydiving’ report – funny as all get-out! (Don’t have cable/sat here so no CNN Fox etc ‘cept for occasions like this.)
Way to go Jeanne Moos! Tell it like it is!

Wonder if they will get the same kickback as NORAD, who this year is going to show AF jets escorting Santa on his route.

They are a bunch of hooligans, the lot of them
frightening the children in order to save the children indeed
@EternalOptimist – compared to 10-10, they are pussycats.
What else to expect from “Greenp..s”? Just don’t fund them!
Even one of Greenpeace’s founders, Patrick Moore, eventually turned against it.
I think these organisations, which originally started with good intentions, are now one of the great threats facing mankind.

The fact that ‘Santa’ does not actually exist, he is not an actual living person and so he cannot “live” anywhere except in the imagination of an infant must have escaped the limited intellect of the Greenpeace collective. At least its not a pro public execution video like the 10.10 video portraying the public murder of sceptical men women and children, but it highlights the true nature of international green perfectly.
OT – can’t find a way to reply to Yolanda hype post but: Reuters is reporting 140mph winds in Scottish highlands. Could this be another mph to kph bug? Can anyone verify this reading. Met UK site shows gusts maxing out at 70mph. (Mod, feel free to route this to an appropriate spot)
This is child abuse. Pure and simple. These people need some jail time to think about their immoral behavior.
Whomever has the best proganda machine, wins in the end. My bets are on Ma Nature who uses reality for Her propaganda – with the Arctic cold and all the snow falling on North America right now, it can not be swept under a rug.
