You can be part of a new crowd-funded book on climate change facts

I’m writing two chapters in this new book, Climate Change: The Facts 2014 which will be crowd-funded to become published. I’m sure you will recognize some other names also contributing chapters in addition to my two chapters on extreme weather and the surface temperature record. I hope you’ll consider helping out bringing it to publication. There’s also a chance your help can earn you a spot on the back cover, see the details in the press release:

The Institute of Public Affairs is bringing together the biggest names in the climate change debate. Make a tax-deductible donation today to help the IPA publish a new book of research,Climate Change: The Facts 2014,and continue to influence the climate change debate in Australia.

If you donate $400 or more you will have the option of being prominently acknowledged on the back cover of Climate Change: The Facts 2014.

NEW-cover-the-facts

Here’s why contributors to Climate Change: The Facts 2014 want you to make a tax-deductible donation to the IPA today:

“This is a crucial year in the climate debate. Australia needs the IPA’s Climate Change: The Facts 2014 so our politicians get to see the evidence – such as the failure of the planet to warm since 1998, and the immeasurably small effect Australia’s global warming policies will actually have on world temperatures.”

 Andrew Bolt, contributor to Climate Change: The Facts 2014

“At last people are making up their own mind about climate change – they can see the doomsayers are wrong!”

 James Delingpole, contributor to Climate Change: The Facts 2014

“Climate change alarmists have done a great disservice to the cause of rational scientific enquiry.Climate Change: The Facts 2014is significant because it deals with the evidence.”

 Professor Stewart Franks, University of Tasmania,

contributor to Climate Change: The Facts 2014

===============================================================

I would point out that it won’t be just about Australia, it will be global in its scope.

If you’d like to help out, go here http://thefacts2014.ipa.org.au/ and see the right sidebar.

Full disclosure: I don’t get any payment for writing those chapters, donations go to publication, distribution, and marketing costs.

I hope that at least one of the contributors will reconstruct the probable temperature trend after correcting for all warming biases and adjustments. My guesstimate is that actual warming since 1975 is close to 0.5 degrees less than the GISS figures.

You’re confused. Anthony is a weatherman not a climate scientist. That’s their modus operandi.

Exactly.

Collect the money, but control the “science”. What a great scam.
I assume you are talking about Shell OIl, BP, Enron, Rockefeller Foundation et al who funded the Climate Research Unit of East Anglia and Dr. Phil Jones
Not to mention Dr Micheal Mann:

Big Oil Goes to College: BP, ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell Fund & Influence Research at Major Universities
Over the past five years, ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP, Royal Dutch Shell and ConocoPhillips have given millions of dollars to support energy research at top US universities….
AMY GOODMAN: The world’s largest oil companies aren’t just heavyweights in the world of Washington lobbyists; they’re also showing a great deal of interest in financing energy research at major American universities. According to a new report released by the Center for American Progress, five of the world’s top ten oil companies — ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP, Royal Dutch Shell and ConocoPhillips — give millions — have been giving millions over the last decade to support energy research at America’s top universities….

Dead right it’s a massive scam.
I assume you are referring to Global Warming Nazis? I mean collecting all those billions of grant dollars, and not a single allowance for a proper scientific analysis, slamming any dissenters, refusing to debate, trashing anyone who has legitimate questions, manipulating peer review, deleting emails, refusing to share data that ‘proves’ CAGW ™, etc. It is a huge scam, you are right!

Anthony,
Please clarify: Is this tax deductible in the US? In Australia? Both?
Can you reference the charitable organization category/status? 501C3 – US?
Thanks,
Mac

If the book displays a focus on Australia, it may well be blown off by the mindless AGW crowd and their loudspeakers in the U.S. media … seriously, the lack of climate truth is global, not just in Australia.

Here is another valid point. Which is more likely to be embraced by the U.S. media, a book sceptical of global warming published in the U.S. or a book published in Australia that promotes it?

Donation made. It may be little (AUD 25) but all little bits help.
Thank you for all your time and effort. Keep fighting the good fight!

March 1, 2014 1:10 am

Mac the knife et al,
the donation web site says it is tax deductible.

Hello Anthony,
Consider initially publishing the book online, and save all the printing costs, etc.
Regards, Allan.

The font colors chosen on the front page invite reading it as “Climate: change the facts 2014”. Surely the alarmists will focus on this and ignore the contents.

Not a donation (sorry but funds are low as I attempt to find a school district that actually thinks), but an interesting article on snow and skiing sites around the world. Somebody had the bright idea of looking at oceanic/atmospheric oscillations and snow levels at ski resorts instead of “anthropogenic -snow will be a thing of the past- climate disruption” to help businesses (aka ski resort owners) figure out their business plans and budgets. No scare tactics here. No Ivory Tower Watermelons schmoozing with politicians. Just researchers catering to the rest of us. You know. The people who work for a living instead of getting their paycheck handed to them on a hog-slopped silver platter.
