The US Government wants to save the polar bear, even though Ursus Maritimus is doing just fine, even without the stigma of being called ‘endangered’.

Melting sea ice in the Arctic will kill thousands of bears in coming years, the US says, and continued commercial trade must not be allowed to make the situation worse. Other countries, including US neighbours and keen polar bear traders, Canada, disagree.

Maher: He's only stoned when he's on the air.

[H/T to climatedepot.com Bill Maher, who has smoked just one too many joints in his life, once again stuck his size 7 foot in his mouth. On his show "Real Time," which aired March 12, he said Republicans weren't disgusted by cap and trade when Bush Sr. used it to stop acid rain.

Comparing (mixing up?) sulfur dioxide (SO2) with carbon dioxide (CO2) is on par with comparing skeptical scientists with holocaust deniers. Which he's done regularly in his quest to dumb down America.

Geologist Leighton Steward: "We've all been kind of giggling as we watch this thing fall apart."

The violent threats are not what bother Michael Mann the most. He's used to them.

Instead, it's the fact that his life's work — the effort to stop global warming — has been under siege since last fall. That's when Mann suddenly found himself in the middle of the so-called "climategate" scandal, in which more than 1,000 e-mails among top climate scientists — including Mann — were obtained illegally by hackers and published on the Internet.

Green activists, the hard-core hippies who love to hate evil concepts like capitalism, technology and soap are finding that their numbers are dwindling, fast.

The article on the rapidly shrinking Green Party in California ponders potential reasons for membership loss:

As Al Gore’s global governance effort via global warming fraud collapses on itself under the heavy burden of Climategate and assorted other scientific scandals, Team Gore has made a laughable announcement:

Washington, D.C. and Nashville, TN — Signaling the historic opportunity before us to transition to a clean energy economy and heal the planet, the Alliance for Climate Protection and The Climate Project, two organizations founded by Nobel Laureate and former Vice President Al Gore, announced today that they are officially uniting their programs and activities under the Alliance for Climate Protection. This unification will strengthen their existing campaigns and initiatives.

Joe Romm is the principal contributor to Climate Progress, a weblog devoted to global warming that is sponsored and funded by the Center for American Progress. I have criticized his writing, his attitude and his conclusions about global warming many times here.

If you are driving a car (say an unrepaired Toyota) and it suddenly surges up to very high speeds, then runs out of gas, it may be true that the first 100 metres after the tank goes dry are the fastest 100 metres the car has ever travelled. It does not follow, though, that the car is still accelerating dangerously. Or at all.

In their attempt to repair the recent damage to their climate-change cause, environmentalists — such as former U.S. Vice-President Al Gore, whose defence of the climate-change theory appears opposite — have begun pointing out that the last decade was “the hottest decade since modern records have been kept.”

Paul Ehrlich
Paul Ehrlich: paranoid much?

A sharp-eyed viewer has noticed that when I was debating George Monbiot on TV yesterday and I mentioned that his cherished “peer-reviewed science” had been discredited by Climategate he bared his teeth like a cornered cur. Says my body language expert John Lish:

“It was a quite aggressive and defensive gesture which was noticeable when he was attempting to dismiss you (talking about peer review). A definite body-language sign of being rattled.  He’s definitely uncomfortable about what’s occurring and others will have spotted that as well.”

The Breakthrough Institute's Ted Nordhaus and Michael Shellenberger are calling out the Center for American Progress' climate change blogger, Joe Romm. The pit bull of self-styled climate change "realists," Romm is notorious for his take-no-prisoners and damn-them-all-to-hell style of "scientific" debate. Now it appears that Romm is ducking a debate over global warming policy and science with University of Colorado environmental studies professor Roger Pielke, Jr. The whole Breakthrough Institute debate challenge post is well worth reading, but to give H&R readers a flavor of what is going on I provide an  excerpt below:

Suzuki: Jail all the skeptics!

Forgive my schadenfreude, but the definition of turnabout is fair play is:

Prov. It is fair for one to suffer whatever one has caused others to suffer.

Global warming neo-religionists and dirty hippies realize people are no longer buying their lies about a global apocalypse begat by pleasant weather, so they’re going to shoot the messenger.  In this case, the messenger is Sen. James Inhofe, the skeptic’s skeptic and political kryptonite to Gore-Al.

Climate Fraud: Al Gore resurfaces in an op-ed to say that nobody's perfect, everybody makes mistakes and climate change is still real. And he has some oceanfront property in the Himalayas to sell you.

If hyperbole and chutzpah had a child, it would be the opening paragraph of Gore's op-ed in Sunday's New York Times. Gore surfaced from the global warming witness-protection program to opine that despite admissions of error and evidence of fraud by various agencies, we still face "an unimaginable calamity requiring large-scale, preventive measures to protect human civilization as we know it."
