If the Science is settled, why did Dr. John Bates’​ piece evoke 509 comments in the last few days about NOAA’s Karl Study of 2015?

Thought Piece In an effort to be balanced on the super-storm of debate caused by yesterday's expose in the London Mail written by David Rose, I have reprinted Dr. John Bates' original article, published on February 4, 2017, which a day earlier than the Mail piece. The myriad of points of view and points of fact (509 [...]

If the Science is settled, why did Dr. John Bates’​ piece evoke 509 comments in the last few days about NOAA’s Karl Study of 2015?

Thought Piece Fake News or Not: To date, none of the major media or climate "news" sites have mentioned this London Mail challenge to the global warming data.

Thought Piece The evidence continues to mount that several climate agencies, like the NOAA and NASA, have been cooking the climate books for years; and, to make matters worse, the major media exaggerates the cooked books, because it believes that its consumers aren't sophisticated enough to understand the actual numbers and their margins for error. The recent [...]

Analysts Weigh OPEC Price Boost Against Shale Rebound: The US is sitting on many DUC, drilled but uncompleted, wells which take less time and money.

Thought Piece There are two factors that this Financial Tribune pieces does not mention, both of which clearly favor US shale. One, the impetuous to build new pipelines such as the Keystone Pipeline, Dakota Access Pipeline and several pipelines alone the upper east coast, all of which are expected to reduce transportation $5 to $7 dollar barrel; [...]

Where will Clean Power Plan organizers refocus their efforts? “If anything, the CPP is not the cause”​ of changes sweeping the power markets.”​

Thought Piece For all of the credit-taking by the EPA and other federal agencies, I think that Ken Colburn has it just about right. The power markets are inexorably changing over to natural gas, improving/upgrading the power grid, and developing energy efficiencies with the help of their State Utilities Commissioners. In fact, energy efficiencies and emission [...]

“The Climate Intelligence Agency”​ Whatever the reason, no job [Agency] is too irrelevant for global warming to intrude.

Thought Piece Do I repeat myself? Well, then I repeat myself! "Paranoid politics almost never achieves its goal. The obvious prejudices, hyperbole, rhetoric, and shrillness gives it away.
