Speaking at the Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future at Boston University, Dyson announced that "all the fuss about global warming is grossly exaggerated.". . . . - climate change has become an "obsession" — the primary article of faith for "a worldwide secular religion" known as environmentalism. Among those he considers true believers, Dyson has been particularly dismissive of Al Gore, whom Dyson calls climate change’s "chief propagandist," and James Hansen, the head of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York and an adviser to Gore’s film, "An Inconvenient Truth."     source

It seems that the obviously arrogant Mr. Gao, and the communist nation that he represents, (China) have decided that we, consumers, should bear the brunt of the expense for that nation's carbon emission load. The logic used to back this assertion, while certainly passing as logic, serves as nothing more than a spotlight on the fundamentally flawed "cap and trade" carbon emissions boondoggle that is slowly unfolding.     source

Prepared text of Obama's address to Congress
"we will double this nation's supply of renewable energy in the next three years"
"We will soon lay down thousands of miles of power lines that can carry new energy to cities and towns across this country."
"But to truly transform our economy, protect our security and save our planet from the ravages of climate change, we need to ultimately make clean, renewable energy the profitable kind of energy. So I ask this Congress to send me legislation that places a market-based cap on carbon pollution and drives the production of more renewable energy in America. And to support that innovation, we will invest fifteen billion dollars a year to develop technologies like wind power and solar power, advanced biofuels, clean coal and more fuel-efficient cars and trucks built right here in America."     text

Governor Bobby Jindal: "Americans Can Do Anything"
"To strengthen our economy, we need urgent action to keep energy prices down. All of us remember what it felt like to pay $4 at the pump - and unless we act now, those prices will return. To stop that from happening, we need to increase conservation … increase energy efficiency … increase the use of alternative and renewable fuels … increase our use of nuclear power - and increase drilling for oil and gas here at home.

Activists push to reinstate drilling ban
Hearing pits backers, foes of ocean oil
By H. Josef Hebert Associated Press
Washington —- Environmental advocates on Wednesday urged Congress to reinstate a broad moratorium on offshore oil drilling, but Rep. Nick Rahall (D-W.Va.) said "the ship may have already sailed."
Rahall, chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, said the political reality is that the broad moratorium across 85 percent of the country’s Outer Continental Shelf —- lifted by Congress last fall - is unlikely to be reimposed.     More

Feds to halt coastal drilling plan
By Stacy Shelton
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar is putting the brakes on a Bush administration plan to open the Atlantic and Pacific coasts —- including Georgia’s —- to oil and natural gas drilling, while promising a "new way forward" for offshore wind projects.
Salazar on Tuesday criticized the Bush administration’s "drill-only approach," saying the U.S. needs a comprehensive energy plan that considers all the potential resources in the oceans. "I intend to do what the prior administration failed to do … incorporate the great potential for wind, wave and ocean tides," Salazar said.     More

Nuclear Firms Power Up - Barron's SA Editor
Rachael Granby
President-elect Barack Obama has created a heady agenda for advancing clean energy and nuclear power giants are set to gain. Barron's says investors should keep an eye on key players like Exelon and Entergy.
As the biggest producers of energy that doesn't emit any greenhouse gases, nuclear plants are entering a 'renaissance,' set to rise handsomely from Obama's 10-year $150B clean energy plan. Companies are applying to build new plants, which could take year, but in the meantime, existing nuclear plants look pretty good. Their stocks are cheap and they boast plenty of competitive advantages, including lower costs than coal-fired rivals.

NASA: Water Vapor Confirmed as Major Player in Climate Change
Water vapor is known to be Earth's most abundant greenhouse gas, but the extent of its contribution to global warming has been debated. Using recent NASA satellite data, researchers have estimated more precisely than ever the heat-trapping effect of water in the air, validating the role of the gas as a critical component of climate change. . . .
"This study confirms that what was predicted by the models is really happening in the atmosphere," said Eric Fetzer, an atmospheric scientist who works with AIRS data at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. "Water vapor is the big player in the atmosphere as far as climate is concerned."     Article

No Energy = No Jobs = No Recovery
•   Wind and solar are expensive sources of power. In addition, they require a costly new power grid and backup generators.
•   Production of bio-fuels consumes energy.
•   Coal power is cheap but clean coal plants are 50% less efficient. China is the largest consumer of coal in the world and are building, on average, one coal-fired power plant per week. It has one clean coal plant.
•   Nuclear power is clean and proven. China has seven nuclear power reactors under construction, and ten more about to start construction. All to be operational in 10 years. The US has 1 reactor under construction. If we want to compete with China and reduce our dependence on oil, we must have nuclear power.
•   Our climate has changed and will continue to change. Water vapor is a significant greenhouse gas. Carbon is not. A cap (tax) on carbon emission would be an impossible burden on industry and in turn on all consumers.

Al Gore - November 9, 2008
"Thirty-five years ago this past week, President Richard Nixon created Project Independence, which set a national goal that, within seven years, the United States would develop "the potential to meet our own energy needs without depending on any foreign energy sources." . . . . Yet today, after all six of the presidents succeeding Nixon repeated some version of his goal, our dependence has doubled from one-third to nearly two-thirds - and many feel that global oil production is at or near its peak."
Al Gore served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1977 to 1985, the U. S. Senate from 1985 to 1993 and as Vice President from 1993 to 2001. He did nothing about energy for 24 years!
Promise them what they want and they will vote for you.
Student groups and environmentalists want a green economy. They are determined to "pull our nation out of its fossil fuel addiction, and declaring an end to coal and nuclear development"
Exactly what Obama promised,
Time to stop playing games.
With banks failing and billions spent on saving the economy we don't have time or money to test and subsidize windmills and other unproven forms of energy. The ethanol program proved to be an expensive failure. We can and should provide tax breaks as we did with other energy providers.
We must conserve like never before.
We have to drill for oil and gas here and as we do drastically reduce our imports. We cannot afford to continue sending 700 billion dollars and millions of jobs overseas.
We have to build safe and reliable nuclear power plants now. France can do it and so can we.
We must re-examine global warming. We have to be sure that reducing carbon will make a difference before we devote trillions of dollars and fail to halt climate change.
Creating 5 million green jobs sounds good and exporting green technology is a great idea but when you export the technology the jobs go with it.

The Blueprint for Change
Barack Obama’s Plan for America
Foreign Oil - America’s 20-million-barrel-a-day oil habit costs our economy $1.4 billion a day, and $500 billion in 2006 alone. Every single hour, we spend $41 million on foreign oil. *
Climate Change - As a result of climate change, glaciers are melting faster; the polar ice caps are shrinking; trees are blooming earlier; more people are dying in heat waves; species are migrating, and eventually many will become extinct. **
* Thanks to Democrats who killed all energy plans since 1977. more
** We did not cause climate change and we will not stop it. more
Invest in Global Warming
Global warming is a multi billion dollar "industry"(aka scam). Investors led by Gore and Pickens are getting ready to make billions. Print & sell "carbon certificates". Collect subsidies. Reduce your taxes. Get an early start. Politicians have aleady in the green "industry"
Two investment groups headed or working with Al Gore are bound to spearhead the "industry"

Disclosure: We have not invested in these companies
Oil and Security
During 2006 the United States consumed 20.7 million barrels (20.7 MMbd) of petroleum products per day.
At the same time the US produced about 5.1 million barrels per day (5.1 MMbd) and imported about 15.6 million barrels per day (15.6 MMbd) Petroleum products were imported from:
Canada - 17.2%
Mexico - 12.4%
Saudi Arabia - 10.7%
Venezuela - 10.4%
Nigeria - 8.1%
To secure our oil supply we have to reduce imports by about 50% or close to 8 million barrels per day.
There is no alternate fuel for airplanes, trucks and factories. We will be uing some oil for decades. We can and must use our own!

End of Global Warming?
David Evans, July 18, 2008
1. The greenhouse signature is missing.
2. There is no evidence to support the idea that carbon emissions cause significant global warming. None.
3. The satellites that measure the world's temperature all say that the warming trend ended in 2001, and that the temperature has dropped about 0.6C in the past year (to the temperature of 1980
4. The new ice cores show that in the past six global warmings over the past half a million years, the temperature rises occurred on average 800 years before the accompanying rise in atmospheric carbon. Which says something important about which was cause and which was effect.
Dr David Evans worked for the Australian Greenhouse Office from 1999 to 2005, building the carbon accounting model that Australia uses to track carbon in its biosphere for the purposes of the Kyoto Protocol. He is a mathematician and engineer, with six university degrees including a PhD from Stanford University.

Global Warming
and the Price of a Gallon of Gas
Jun 12, 2008. John Coleman,
founder of the Weather Channel
There is no significant man made global warming. There has not been any in the past, there is none now and there is no reason to fear any in the future. The climate of Earth is changing. It has always changed. But mankind's activities have not overwhelmed or significantly modified the natural forces.
