Month: December 2019

From January 2016 – an innocent time when we did not understand the depth of the climate denial industry’s hostility to democracy, and compromise by an international criminal gang of oligarchs based in Russia…

One of climate denialdom’s most deranged and angry voices kind of hates my new video.

Jame’s Delingpole, seen below, whose motto is “I’m evil and right about everything.”(sorry Jimmy, only half right..) – deals in a very special kind of blissfully clueless, fact free invective that climate deniers love because it requires no thought or knowledge whatever.

In fact, Delingpole brags that he never takes time to look at tedious science. He’s too busy with other things.

Above, James Delingpole is asked a question. Implodes. He later complained he was “intellectually  raped”.

But he is on to me, and calls me out for my malevolent practice of seeming “measured and reasonable”.

Ok, Jimmy, you got me.

James Delingpole in Breitbart:

The climate alarmists have come up with a brilliant new excuse to explain why there has been no “global warming” for nearly 19 years.
Turns out the satellite data is lying.

And to prove it they’ve come up with a glossy new video starring such entirely trustworthy and not at all biased climate experts as Michael “Hockey Stick” Mann, Kevin “Travesty” Trenberth, and Ben Santer. (All of these paragons of scientific rectitude feature heavily in the Climategate emails)

The video is well produced and cleverly constructed – designed to look measured and reasonable rather than yet another shoddy hit job in the ongoing climate wars.

From the Colbert skunkworks.

One of my favorites.

Jim Hansen walks us thru the last 65 million years, to answer the question “Hasn’t the climate changed before? What’s the big deal?”

Key video recorded at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting, San Francisco, December 2014.

On my first crowd-funded field trip with a science team, in 2012, I followed Mauri Pelton and his team up Easton Glacier in the Northern Cascades of Washington state.

Here he gives us a history lesson showing the story the surrounding landscape tells about a giant glacier’s retreat.

Kids don’t try this unless you have a good guide and strong cardio fitness (trust me).

Jennifer Francis has made one of the most important contributions to climate science of the last decade with her observations of the “teleconnections” between arctic changes and temperate zone extremes.

This is the interview that shocked a lot of people, – including me – as I was pulling my jaw off the floor in that small side space in Moscone Center.

The “Climate Crock of the Week” series started 10 years ago in 2009, just before the “Climategate” nonsense.
A couple years later I was invited to start the “This is Not Cool” series for Yale Climate Connections.
I’ll be posting favorite videos – the ones I show over and over in presentations or online, over the next couple weeks.
