PANETTA: CLIMATE CHANGE A NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT...

Conducting interviews on this topic is the author of Eco-Tyranny: How the Left's Green Agenda will Dismantle America, Brian Sussman.

(Washington Examiner) - Defense Secretary Leon Panetta declared global warming a national security threat yesterday during a speech before an environmentalist group in Washington, D.C.

"The area of climate change has a dramatic impact on national security," Panetta told the Environmental Defense Fund last night. "Rising sea levels, severe droughts, the melting of the polar caps, the more frequent and devastating natural disasters all raise demand for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief."

The Defense Secretary must have missed Examiner Columnist Mona Charen's recent piece on how symbols of global warming aren't working out the way environmentalists predicted.

For instance, The United Nations climate change panel "admitted that the melting Himalayas prediction was not based on science but on a 1999 media interview given by one scientist," Charen observed. "They said they regretted the error. Now, a study in nature, based on satellite imagery, has shown that some melting of lower altitude glaciers is taking place but that higher glaciers have been adding ice."

With reference to the story of an apparently-marooned polar bear floating on an ice floe -- puzzling, as polar bears can swim for hundreds of miles -- Charen cited a new Canadian study showing that the polar bear population is on the rise.

"Oh, and the scientist for the Department of the Interior whose 2004 work on drowning polar bears inspired Al Gore and others has been placed on administrative leave for unspecified wrongdoing," she added.

Hot air on climate change and the end of the world

Leading environmentalist admits his own dire predictions were wrong

Talk about an inconvenient truth: One of the scientists who most forcefully sounded the warning bells of climate change now says his predictions were a bit overheated.

Back in 2006, British environmentalist James Lovelock declared that “before this century is over, billions of us will die and the few breeding pairs of people that survive will be in the Arctic where the climate remains tolerable.”

Wind Farms Contribute to Rising Temperature

Researches find higher temperatures around wind farms.

Could wind turbines be contributing to global climate change?

That’s what some scientists are asking after research from the State University of New York at Albany showed a temperature change around Texas wind farms.

The scientists observed ground temperatures in the area and their changes between 2003 and 2011, and they found an overall shift.

The global warming argument of "scientific consensus" is garbage

Back in the days of Plato, believing the earth was flat disc was the stuff of "scientific consensus"....  Back in the days of Aristotle, believing the earth was the center of the universe and the the sun orbited the earth was the stuff of "scientific consensus"..... Challenge people who try to tell you that because global warming is supported by "scientific consensus" it therefore must be accepted as fact.   There's nothing factual about scientific consensus. ~ Mike Thayer

ROMNEY-INSPIRED OBAMACARE DRAWS SCOTUS SCRUTINY WHILE CONGRESS ALSO BATTLES ROMNEY'S 'GREEN QUARTERBACK' CRUSADE TO DESTROY U.S. COAL INDUSTRY

President Obama Takes Another Page from Romney's Policy Playbook and Sends in Romney's 'Green Quarterback' to Destroy Jobs and Drive up Energy Prices

Verona, PA - This week oral arguments ended at the Supreme Court over the constitutionality of Obamacare - while close-by Congressional Republicans battled another one of the ghosts from Mitt Romney's past - as his "green (energy) quarterback" from Massachusetts led Obama's attack on America's energy industry.

 

Hogan Gidley, National Communications Director, said "Gov. Romney often says he's never been in Washington - well it's a good thing he hasn't, because Gov. Romney has done more than enough damage to this nation from Massachusetts.  First Romneycare was the basis for Obamacare, and now we find out Gov. Romney's 'green (energy) quarterback' who concocted Romney's regional cap-and-tax scheme is leading the effort to force the same job-crushing energy regulations down our throats at the national level.

 

Turns out, Governor Romney's healthcare model isn't the only thing Obama copied - now the President is copying Romney's environmental agenda too."

 

The day after news surfaced that President Obama's Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plans to issue new greenhouse gas regulations effectively banning new coal-fired power plants, Obama's top air quality official Gina McCarthy - who previously served as Mitt Romney's "green quarterback" in Massachusetts - refused to rule out EPA regulations forcing existing coal plants to enact job-killing carbon dioxide limits.

 

Under direct questioning by the House Energy and Commerce Committee, McCarthy would only say that EPA currently has "no plans" to issue the regulations.  However, as The Hill reports, environmentalists say they are confident the agency will indeed issue climate regulations for existing power plants, noting that yesterday's greenhouse gas proposal for new plants explicitly cites future Clean Air Act regulations for the existing fleet.

 

From health care mandates and climate regulations to Wall Street bailouts, tax increases and big government spending, we are finding more evidence every day that regardless of how well you shake the Etch A Sketch, the real Mitt Romney looks a whole lot like President Obama on the issues that matter most.

 

Rick Santorum has vowed to immediately rescind all of President Obama's regulations that cost the economy more than $100 million per year, and immediately approve the Keystone XL pipeline.

‘Serious Lapse’ of My Judgment and Ethics: Impostor Who Took Think Tank’s Global Warming Docs Revealed

From theblaze.com

Last week, a wealth of documents from the free-market think tank The Heartland Institute were leaked, revealing some of the organization’s strategy, funding and other private information. Heartland, in a statement soon thereafter, revealed that the information wasn’t hacked from its system but that someone had posed as a board member to obtain the documents from a Heartland employee. Some of the documents Heartland said were falsified.

Now, the person who lied to gain access the Institute’s internal documents has revealed himself, made a statement as to why he did it and apologized.

Peter Gleick, president and founder of the well-known Pacific Institute for Studies in Development, Environment and Security, has admitted to posing as someone else to receive documents. He also admitted to forwarding the information to journalists and others covering climate change.
