Warm periods during the past, like the MWP and the 1930′s completely wreck the global warming narrative – so NASA puts a lot of effort into erasing the 1930′s, while Mann takes down the MWP. The work NASA is doing to corrupt the Vestmannaeyja, Iceland…

Daniel Andrews’ wind farm plan will add to bird deaths

LAST week Premier Daniel Andrews made a very big deal of launching a new wind farm near Dundonnell in Victoria’s southwest.

It was going to create 300 direct (and, ahem, indirect) jobs in construction and a massive — well, all of — “up to” 16 jobs when operational. Best of all, it was going to generate enough electricity to “power” 140,000 homes.

That is, of course, when the wind is blowing. For as South Australians have been — very expensively — discovering of recent months, when the wind don’t blow the power don’t flow.

But when the opposite happens, when the wind does blow, the turbines are not just generating power, they are slaughtering birds.

What the Premier “forgot” to mention last week, is that the Dundonnell wind farm has not yet received…

Global Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide
Global atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations from Oct. 1 through Nov. 11, as recorded by NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2. Carbon dioxide concentrations are highest above northern Australia, southern Africa and eastern Brazil. Preliminary analysis of the African data shows the high levels there are largely driven by the burning of savannas and forests. Elevated carbon dioxide can also be seen above industrialized Northern Hemisphere regions in China, Europe and North America.

Sporting News has published a scathing critique of Brazil’s attempt to prop up its rather shaky green credentials by wedging a “buzzkill” climate message into their Olympic opening ceremony.

Global warming message had no place at Rio Olympics’ opening ceremony

The organizers of the Opening Ceremony of Rio Olympics 2016 should give themselves a medal for hypocrisy.

Their preachy warnings about global warming brought a feel-good…
