Just when cracks were starting to appear in the man-made global warming theory, John Gunter, general manager of tour group Frontiers North Adventures, came across a case of polar bear cannibalization on Nov 20 and hit the Warmist jackpot: a nice picture of a male polar bear killing and eating a polar bear cub, complete with shockingly blood-stained ice-floes, and giddily, like Europeans huddled around a bloodied Newfoundland seal pup, delivered the pictures to a welcoming media, eager to turn the spotlight away from Climategate, and gobbled it up like Coca Cola (pun intended), splashing the bloody pictures on the screen, complete with sad music, a sombre tone and disclaimer.

Global Warming caused the ice to melt, cutting off the Polar Bears’ food supply, and making them turn read more

Guinty & Smithy are just running wild now. One boondoggle after another. There seems to be no way to stop them.

The latest stupidity project is taking shape in Almonte. Mr. eHealth Scandal himself, George Smitherman, was on-hand to unveil the latest proof of incompetence: Two-hundred acres of prime, fertile farm land has been leased to a French company, that, for the lovely sum of $100,000,000 of Ontario taxpayer dollars, will erect a “solar wonder of the world” and, get this, will be paid $0.42 per kW/h to generate electricity. We currently pay, say, 0.06 per kW/h for coal/hydro/nuclear, so that will be an increase of seven hundred percent to the cost of electricity. AND we have to pay them to build it. On top of that, read more

The federal government, in conjunction with the Alberta government, have invested $779M for an underground plant food storage unit. The unit will capture plant food (also known as CO2) from industries and store it underground in a holding facility (much like as in Ghostbusters), to be released into the atmosphere by some crazy scientist (again, much like as in Ghostbusters) sometime into the future, creating havoc for everybody on Earth. Or something.

At least it is some $220M less than Ontario’s recent M2W (Money To Waste, or, McGuinty To Waste) program.

Together, they could have bought 1800 MRI machines, or 100,000 nurses, saving MANY, MANY more lives than electronic health records or stopping Global Warming could ever hope to do.

After years of supporting campaigns to conserve water in the City of Ottawa, the city has now run into a problem: water consumption is down so much, that the city is looking at a $7M deficit in revenues, and in return will have to increase the rates on everything (including your water bill) to make up for it.

So, first they ask us to consume less, we do what they ask, and then as a thank you, they hit us over the head with an increase on the very bill they asked us to reduce.

I think the brains at city hall are made of 100% water, as opposed to the regular 70%.

And don’t get me started on exactly WHY we should read more

Ontario’s summer, so far, has been so cold and damp that it is now very hospitable to Heracleum mantegazzianum, also known as the Giant Hogweed, which is native to Russia, and thrived in the early 1970s in (also) damp and cold Britain. Ontario’s summer has been so cold and wet that it closely resembles Britain’s, and as such, the Giant Hogweed is quickly spreading.

The Giant Hogweed is a plant that can grow up to 7 meters tall, and it’s 3 cm thick stems have a clear liquid that, combined with sunlight, can make your skin boil. It was introduced to Britain by a victorian explorer, planted in the Royal Gardens at Kew, and quickly took over the countryside, prompting my read more

…rid the world of Prince Charles, Al Gore and David Suzuki, or we’ll all be doomed! DOOMED!

In a report published by the Global Humanitarian Forum on May 29th, Kofi Annan (yes, him) warns the world that hundreds of thousands of people are currently dying from Climate Change, and by 2030 that could be 500,000.

Highlights of the report:

Report projects that by 2030, worldwide deaths will reach almost 500,000 per year; people affected by climate change annually expected to rise to over 600 million and the total annual economic cost increase to around $300 billion

To avert worst possible outcomes, climate change adaptation efforts need to be scaled up by a factor of 100 in developing countries, which account for 99% of casualties due to climate change

Of course, the report is short on facts, long on fear-mongering:

…I am YEARS ahead of everybody else…

After a devastating report late last week, the Alarmist Warmists were obviously looking for something visual and stunning to bring the cause back on track. And this weekend, they got it: a nice large chunk of ice broke off  the Wilkins Ice Shelf in Antarctica, destroying an ice-bridge, and creating a new island. Nicely viewed from space with beautiful satellite pictures for proof. Words like “could”, “likely” and “may” are strewn across the article bringing it in-line with those in the hay-day of Global Warming in the late 1990′s.

“We’re back, baby!”

Something I don’t get though… the article speaks of things like “first time in history” and “historic” and then says the following to make its case:

Researchers at the NOAA (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), after careful re-analysis of our entire array of climate data (50 years’ worth of adjusted, converted and re-adjusted pristine data), came up with a stunning conclusion: the Earth’s climate is mostly influenced by nature! Turns out, mankind isn’t “just” responsible for climate change, in the past 50 years it has mostly been shifting ocean currents.

Some of us have been saying this since the nineties, when the IPCC came out with  their first false report. And some of us have been trying to say this since Al Gore came out with his
