last week I checked the average temperature for the western slope of colorado for just the monthe of May. the average is 50's at night and 70's during the day, however the month of May 2016 has been 40's at night and 60's during the day.
I also read that the atlantic ocean level from d.c to ny harbor has actually declined slightly, and then yesterday i read that england is having december weather now. maybe the government employees should go to the new england area and experience the summer winter that the people that live there are enjoying.
Logically, this law would extend itself to more than businesses trying to "protect the old way by denying the need for the new." Would it not also extend to any politician who campaigned on the basis of rolling back global warming regulation? Would not the AG have the power, indeed the duty, to prosecute any politician running on an anti-regulatory platform? And any advocacy group showing that global warming is a lie?
This is unconstitutional on its face. "Congress shall make no law...abridging the freedom of speech." And: "No bill of attainder or ex post facto law shall be passed."
Knocks on you door tonight
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
From now on, I'll call them the "Chicken Little" Gang.
However...I think we all could find evidence that climate change Is..."anthroid-pogenicly" caused...if they'd just keep their Mouths and anuses shut...the climate would cool down.
I want them to talk about what government has done to change the weather, and what other countries' governments have done to change our weather. Let's be honest, thess facilities are weapons of war now. Ask for the budget for HAARP and say you want accountability for your tax dollars, and the Congressmen run like scared deer. They have HAARP Alaska and Puerto Rico, Russia, England and several countries have similar facilities. Ours heated the ionosphere and changed the jet stream. Blaming oil companies is like blaming a bunny rabbit for human overproduction. We can not stand for letting liberasl who do not do their homework shut down free speech of others. If liberals want a debate, let them use their own words, not something fed into their brains by politicians. They are scared, because they know they are lying to suit the UN, which says they just want people to believe, true or not, so they can control all of us.
the same as the police keeping your money on mere
suspicion of illegality -- it's creeping hitlerism on the
left. . and they blame right-wingers for just that,
to distract from its existence! -- j

Nyah!
Someone -1 THAT!?!?
Nyah in your face, Big Brother!
Frack, baby, frack!
Mine, baby, mine!
Pipeline build, baby, build!
Coal car trains chug, baby, chug!
Truckers drive, baby, drive!
Sea container cargo blub, baby, blub!
I am dino!
Hear me ROAR!
Let's hear your engine roar!

When I first heard of computer as a kid, one filled an entire room and helped scientists with complex computations.
Whoa! Comparing "computer" to "computations." Ha, ha, it is to laugh.
It has progressed to incredible abilities . About the opposite of our political leaders.
If so, I later learned that an improving computer tech shrank to the size of a room.
As for political leaders, their reasoning capabilities meanwhile shrank as tech capabilities enlarged.
Maybe shrinking to get smarter computers was nature attempting to achieve a balance against humanity dumbing down.
For example, consider Millennials with their needful handheld devices.
I must apologize for my error in saying the computers size was 2 rooms. I had heard that from someone long ago who was exaggerating A simple Fact check , the machine filled a room. Sorry Allosaur
I make goofs all the time.
Still, I wonder why your admitted error still seems vaguely familiar to me.
Maybe I once heard one person long ago make a similar exaggeration.
Oh, well, during my lifetime Old Dino heard all kinds of things that did not pan out to be correct.
People can say anything.
Whether "global warming" is true or not, you can't stifle comment on it, unless you resort to thumbscrews...
I thought California was eventually supposed to fall into the sea from an earthquake. I used to think that would be a tragedy... :P Anyone left there with any sense, get out while you can. One day these fruitcakes will be successful and pass such nonsense.
Respectfully,
O.A.
Oh, hockey stick...Am I violating CA law?
They hired people make videos, designed to look like students' independent ideas, denying the role of burning fuel in climate change. So they not only lie, but they lie about whose doing the lying. I don't see any of that as a crime though, anyone can go look up the facts if they want.
Lets also examine the fraudulent studies done in support of "climate change", formerly called "global warming" because that turned out to be obvious lies based on actual weather temperatures.
You are a lot smarter than this, CG.
Of course climate does change, but there is not adequate scientific evidence to support blaming humanity for it.
In addition, he found and released, "HUMINT", in the form of emails, between East Anglia and other AGW "scientists" at other universities, including the "hockey stick" guy, discussing the fudging, and also which opposing scientists were to be excluded from scientific/academic journals.
The most damning symptom of their failure is a consistent refusal to release their raw data to other academics/scientists to verify, a clear aberration from normal academic research practice.
The story overall, if you can find it, it a detailed damning of the entire AGW movement as anti-scientists and pure ideologues.
Shame, shame, shame.
The wishful thinking relies on the possibility that future discoveries will break in our favor. That could happen. I always think of how the scientific evidence showed all fats were unhealthful in the 80s, and scientists later found new evidence in favor of what we all wish were true. So that could happen.
The conspiracy theory says science is too influenced by the interests who fund the studies. I agree with that part. For example, someone has a reason to fund a study to see if there's a slight benefit from administering blood pressure drugs to someone with only slightly elevated blood pressure. There is less motivation to study the effects of eating celery every day or something like that. Following this path, we'd expect research to understate the risks of economic activity and overstate the benefits of some approach that business can provide to mitigate those risks. Most economic activity is in some way powered by releasing carbon by extracting and burning fuels from the earth. So almost all political forces push in favor burning stuff, e.g. Exxon's out-and-out lies.
My claim is that the lies are so transparent that they do not constitute fraud in any form. Anyone can go look up the facts.
That detestable behavior is unacceptable in the Gulch. Its irrational and not objective. Take that irrational rubbish to facebook. It has no place here.
Its your statement, CG. You can't support it and you want me to go back up your statement. Not my job. You want any credibility, you have to back up what you say. If its so easy to do and based on such solid science, then provide links to the unassailable data.
You made statements that depend on unproven assumptions. Prove them or shut up.
I think you misunderstood something. I don't get how name-calling even came into this. I do not want you to support my statements. I have no idea what you're talking about.
As far as I know, Exxon doesn't deny climate change--they support science that studies and performs experiments and research and development of various and sundry topics and discoveries and technologies. Just as many businesses do, including marketing of their product and protection of themselves from many forms of idiocy. They've made many significant advances and discoveries over the decades of their existence that has improved our lives and has made a lot of money for many, many of their stockholders.
The shame is that they find it necessary to spend a great deal of money to protect themselves from other groups that attack them based on false and lieing charlatans of science, anti-life and anti-human attackers--to the effect that it increases our cost of their products and decreases the profit of their stockholders.
There is acknowledged proof of false science and data manipulation of those that are proponents of AGW. There is also more than adequate proof in the geography of this planet that climate changes. There is no proof of AGW.
I would add that this entire subject provides adequate proof that much of the population of this country are idiots--some malovelent. This is what you get with unlimited democracy.
I agree completely. I don't know if it's malevolence, wishfully thinking, just busy and looking the other way, or some people being veritable "false and lying charlatans of science, anti-life and anti-human attackers." It's some combination of those things. I don't try to work out their motivations. I want a solution.
One of the better examples I know of is the existence and evidence of studies performed in France and the Mediterranean substantiating the health benefits of moderate red wine consumption on a regular basis throughout life, available in the 60's and 70's, but not published in the US for several years as a result of the 'War on Drugs' and alcohol prejudice from 'Prohibition' still prevalent in many areas of the Bible Belt as well as the Public Health arena.
It's just shorthand. Both my wife's parents died of it. It's an excruciating process to watch. Oddly, on their death certificates they printed "ethanol" as the cause of death instead of decades of over-consumption of ethanol or something like "liver failure". It's odd how we cut these things down to one word.
