Global Warming

On Wednesday, NewsBusters premiered a new video from our friends at Minnesotans for Global Warming called "Two Below Honey."Those that watched it saw and heard a clever global warming parody sung to Van Morrison's "Tupelo Honey."The video has now been removed by YouTube with the following explanation:

In honor of this year's harsh winter, our dear friends at Minnesotans for Global Warming have created a new song to address Nobel Laureate Al Gore's scam. Done to Van Morrison's hit "Tupelo Honey," they call it "Two Below Honey," and it's being premiered this morning at NewsBusters:

Once again, inconvenient weather tosses a monkey wrench at enviro-hysteric claims of looming apocalypse, an alleged threat now entering its third decade. Most recent example: Rachel Maddow's reporting on her MSNBC show Monday night --Some big global warming news today. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton named a special envoy today for climate change. His name is Todd Stern, he was the United…

While the rest of the climate alarmists in the media gushed and fawned over Nobel Laureate Al Gore's testimony on Capitol Hill Wednesday, at least Americans had Dennis Miller to offer some sanity to the global warming absurdity:On this [Al Gore's] a bit of a doofus...He talks about it being our home. Why is he hogging the thermostat? And you know, he's got his own personal challenge come up here…

"Don't know much about history, don't know much biology." Those famous lyrics from Sam Cooke's 1958 song, "Wonderful World," never rang truer than today. American students continue to test far behind the highest performing nations in science and math, according to the American Institutes for Research. And many would be hard pressed to name the three branches of government or the authors of the…

As Nobel Laureate Al Gore warns Congress today about how the naturally occurring gas carbon dioxide is destroying the planet -- and gets a lot of press attention doing so, of course! -- one has to wonder whether anyone -- either on Capitol Hill or in the media -- will ask him how he financially benefits if the legislative measures he's proposing get enacted.After all, as NewsBusters reported last…

I'll betcha this won't get much notice in the Obamedia, so it needs some here.Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe's Environment and Public Works Committee Press Blog released a statement last night reporting that Dr. John S. Theon, the former supervisor of over-the-top global warming alarmist James Hansen, has publicly rebuked his former employee's conduct, refuted Hansen's comedic claim that he was…

Uniquely among Monday’s broadcast evening newscasts, NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams read a short item citing a "disheartening" report by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicting that the world is in danger of suffering effects of global warming that will take 1,000 years to reverse unless "immediate action is taken to cut greenhouse gases." Williams: "The…

In one of her first official decisions since being confirmed as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton on Monday appointed a special envoy on climate change who is currently a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress.As NewsBusters reported in June 2007, CAP is led by former President Clinton's Chief of Staff John Podesta, and the list of all those involved reads like a Clinton…

James Lovelock (picture is from his web site) has been the topic of at least three previous NewsBusters posts:In September 2006, Dan Gainor marveled at how the Washington Post could devote 2,400 words to Lovelock and his "Gaia Theory" -- the idea that the earth acts like a living organism. In October 2007, Gainor noted Lovelock's appearance in that esteemed scientific publication Rolling Stone,…

For decades, a consistent media theme has been that liberals are far more concerned about the environment than conservatives. If such is the case, why did the folks attending Barack Obama's inauguration on Tuesday treat our nation's capital like a toilet?Consider the picture to your right as well as the embedded video below while you formulate an answer: 

He won an Oscar and a Nobel Peace Prize, but a recent poll suggests the Global Warmingist-in-Chief Al Gore is losing his propaganda war to convince Americans carbon dioxide is destroying the planet.In fact, the number of people who believe that long-term planetary trends are responsible for the relatively small increase in temperatures in recent decades rose ten percent since last April while…

Pity the poor global warming alarmists such as Al Gore, James Hansen of NASA, and the Weather Channel's Heidi Cullen. They went way out on the limb in promoting the absolute certainity of global warming and now Mother Nature is sawing it off behind them with the coldest weather in decades. To spare themselves complete embarrassment, you might have noticed that many media outlets and global…
