Emily Matthews: Climategate - call your Senators

It’s now a week since Climategate was exposed. Thanks to James Delingpole of Britain’s Daily Telegraph, we have proof the warmists are liars. (And, YES, they were hacked; East Anglia’s CRU admitted it AND canceled all passwords afterwards.) Some juicy quotes taken from the hacked emails:

* “The fact is we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment…”

* “Can you delete any emails you may have had re. AR4?” (AR4 being the fourth Assessment Report of the UN International Panel on Climate Change).

* “…a good earlier point that it would be nice to “contain” the…MWP” (Medieval warming period; look up the work of Soon and Baliunas on that. S&B, about which Tim Ball said, “Holdren’s attempt to belittle…in front of colleagues is a measure of the man’s…political opportunism.”)

* “I think we have to stop considering “Climate Research” as a legitimate peer-reviewed journal.” (Wanting to discredit those who disagree—good grief, science is all about being skeptical; about investigation!)

So why aren’t we hearing more about Climategate? Why are the MSM not screaming foul, when so much, in terms of the economy, is at stake? Well, says Delingpole, “there are too many vested interests…with far too much to lose.”

It always comes back to the money. That trail always leads to the truth. Back up to 1992 and Maurice Strong (groomed by Rockefeller), then Secretary General of the UN Conference on Environment and Development (Earth Summit). Strong, Executive Director of the UN Environment Programme, said then, “Isn’t the only hope for the planet, that the industrial civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about…The best thing we can do is teargun [sic] all US factories and level them.”

Now, why would he want to do that? According to Judi McLeod of the Canadian Free Press, it could be because he spends most of his time in China, grooming that country to take America’s former place in the world. Of course, China would be exempt from any treaty such as Kyoto or Copenhagen. Hmmm, Strong was the brains behind Kyoto—see any connection?

How about the fact that Strong, along with Al Gore cronies, owned shares in Molten Metal Technology, Inc., which Gore pumped on Earth Day 1995, as a pioneer in world-saving technology? According to McLeod’s report, MMTI had received a total of $33 million of taxpayers’ money. When the government balked at wasting any more taxpayer money— because the technology just did not work—Strong and other insiders sold their stocks for a killing, after which a press release announced what they already were privy to: no more tax money would be flowing in. He made $30 per share.

Now fast forward to the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCE), the largest shareholder of which is Goldman Sachs. Hmmm, weren’t they recipients of bailout funds? As in, $12.9 billion they got from AIG in 2008? Didn’t Bush’s pet Paulson used to work there? And doesn’t Paulson also cultivate close relations with China? Do you see a pattern?

The CCE got $1 million from the Joyce Foundation, during the time Obama was on the charity’s Board of Directors. Gore and Strong are key players in the CCE—hey, Gore even buys carbon credits from himself! His company is Generation Investment Management LLC, according to McLeod. I recall reading about the CCE in the Farm Bureau newspaper; I could even “sell my carbon credits” on the CCE, as we have land in pasture. My first thought was, “If someone is stupid enough to pay me for growing grass, why would I have to go through a middleman?”

So what do Cap ‘n Trade and Copenhagen mean for the US? High costs, increased taxes, a new derivatives fraud based on “carbon credits”, and “climate police.” Look at this wording of Pelosi’s bill (actually, she’s just the front for whomever really wrote it): a requirement for a “building code enforcement department”, which will force every township and city to hire 3 new employees, a “Federal Power Marketing Agency”, the secretary of which “may set and collect inspection fees”, “assess civil penalty for violations”, and (a real kicker) “each day of unlawful occupancy (i.e. living in your own home, or farming your own land) shall be considered a separate violation.”

Van Jones was right, when he admitted that the whole “green” movement was a political maneuver to destroy the middle class. If you don’t believe it, watch the movie “Fall of the Republic: The Presidency of Barack Obama.” (And no, it’s not BO-bashing, despite the title.) Then call your senators.

Emily Matthews lives with her family on a 30-acre farm in the town of Schleswig in Manitowoc County and near the city of Kiel.

COMMENTS

Emily,
All you need to do is to point to the vast body of evidence that the earth isn't warming and that if it is, something other than humans are the cause. You don't need to refer to these small bodies of boring emails between incompetent scientists.

dave allen (Tue Dec 01 20:08:51 2009)

So, Dave, are you going to contact the White House and Congress and protest? The whole point is that they WILL use the fake "green" crisis to undermine US sovereignty, further bankrupt this nation, usher in a global government (reference press releases announcing G20 will police the WORLD economy, or even Pelosi's bill), and reward overseas companies with contracts for wind towers (almost all components of which are made overseas; Tower Tech in Manty only ASSEMBLES them).

Or are you one of those people who, as Jesse Ventura says, "have plenty of time to watch ball games, but no time to pay attention to what's going on"?

WI will be one of those states hit hardest by the green doctrine, as our manufacturing base depends on fossil fuels. But coal plants nowadays are much cleaner than they used to be; besides, there's always the possibility of nuclear, which despite its bad image, is one of the safest, cleanest sources of electricity.

However, nobody in power wants to use these economic options, so WI will suffer. Obama is now talking about bypassing Congress and simply forcing the EPA to write rules requiring Cap n Trade!

Look at France, where they get almost all of their power from nuclear, and have no problem with waste storage, as they use their rods over and over again. The US couldn't do this, thanks to archaic regs preventing re-use. Then look at Denmark, where they have the place covered with expensive windmills, and still cannot supply all their electrical needs. (not to mention the health issues associated with windmills; just ask the people in Calumet county.)

Read the article by Arthur Robinson, PhD, "Mr. Obama, Tear Down This Wall", who explains that for every "alternative" electricity source, you have to consider inputs. (E.g. the Nellis solar array cost $106 million, and only produces 30.1 gigawatt hours per year, compared to Palo Verde nuclear, costing about $26.7 billion in 2009 dollars, and producing 297 times the electricity.)

Then get to WORK, spreading the news, calling legislators, and don't just sit there smugly proclaiming "we already know the earth isn't warming". Because that's NOT THE POINT. US sovereignty and independence IS.

Emily,
I'm happy to write to my Congressman and Senators on this. But what sources do I cite that the body of evidence is that Global Warming doesn't exist (or is not caused by humans)?. I'm on board for the nuclear power option all the way regardless of Global Warming as long as we do it like the French, standardized, nationally regulated.

dave allen (Wed Dec 02 07:07:52 2009)

Here's a treasure trove Dave. From a UW Ph.D, a Distinguished Senior Fellow in the School of Public Policy at George Mason and research professor at U. VA for 31 years. Amply trashed in climategate emails. You can't deny his scientific pedigree.

Jo (Wed Dec 02 08:01:09 2009)

Dave- All the proof I needed is right here in this series of clips (see 2-5 from clip 1) And in fact, all I needed to know that Mann et al were lying, is the evidence presented from about the 8:30 mark to end of clip one. Mann obscures with his famous "hockey stick" graph 2 well known and historically recorded (tho, due to lack of thermometers, actual temperatures were not.) That is, the Mideaval warming which allowed Eric the Red and subsequent generations to farm on Greenland, until the Little Ice Age destroyed the community about 3-400 yrs later. In order for his theory to stand up, these had to go, and by some very questionable sleight of hand, he made them disappear from HIS history, but not ours. The mideaval warming lasted some 6 centuries, and temps averaged a few degrees warmer than today. So OBVIOUSLY Mann was playing fast and loose with available data, and from that point forward, NOTHING he produced was worthy of being trusted (subsequently reinforced by the recent email release.) While the video works this out well, I came to the same conclusion years before I saw the video. Oh, and btw, there were precious few factories back in the yr 700 to cause the increasing temps, and the human population was-maybe-500,000,000. So OBVIOUSLY there are other factors at work. Also significant in one of these clips is the work of Patrick Michael (?) who points out that Gore got his CO2 link wrong. FIRST temps rise, and as ocean waters can absorb and hold LESS CO2, more is released into the atmosphere. You can do a small scale experiment to prove this. Open 2 cans of soda, put one on the counter, the other in the fridge, and see which has more CO2 the next day. The lies abound. The AGW was thoroughly discredited BEFORE the emails, and they are but the last nails in the coffin for any rational person.

Ken Van Doren (Wed Dec 02 09:16:59 2009)

Dave, did you click on any of the links? Did you watch the video? Where did the ice-buried vegetation In Siberia come from? What caused the glacier that once covered where I live, to melt? Do you have a Biology/Chem degree, like me?

If you even thought for a moment about it, CO2, O2, H2O, and the sun are the four elements of life. Plants NEED CO2 to survive. The globalists have reckoned that they can't tax the sun, water, or O2, so they picked CO2. This has nothing to do with true science, but rather politics. Trash the western nations' economies, the better to rule them by.

Watch the talk given by Lord Monckton, the founder of Greenpeace. Consider that the SUN is the BIGGEST factor in periodic warmig and cooling, and that the earth has ALWAYS had such periods.

Skepticism is at the heart of all true science. When you follow the political/money trail, you WILL find the truth. It involves both parties, lots of lies and corruption, and lots of globalists. (Well, I guess the latter two are the same thing...)
