Major report warns climate change
could raise temperatures by 10 degrees

The Hill [Washington, DC], by Ben Geman

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/12/2013 1:34:10 PM

A major draft federal report concludes that climate change is already affecting U.S. residents through heat waves, droughts and other changes, and warns that temperatures could increase as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit if global carbon emissions keep soaring. The third National Climate Assessment, released Friday, said there’s “unambiguous evidence” that earth is warming, and that climate change over the past 50 years is driven primarily by human activity, especially from burning fossil fuels. “Certain types of weather events have become more frequent and/or intense, including heat waves,

Comments:
Right on cue they start laying the groundwork for cap and trade. Lamar Alexander says "I believe climate change is due to a combination of factors..." For a Republican to even utter those words is pure insanity. No wonder we are in such trouble in Washington.

It´s Whack A Mole time for climate change!
It has nothing to do with carbon emissions but there is a lot of Green in pretending- just ask Al Gorzeela!

This released just after the international scientists stood up and said there was no man made increase in temps.
They think us stupid.
The earth is warming, and has been for 21k yrs or so.
We didn´t do it and we cannot tax it away.
When it gets down to the cutting, we should eat the scientists first.

The national assessments have always been founded on the IPCC. Now that the IPCC has said there has been no warming despite a very significant increase in man based CO2, This federal body has to move in an protect their ability to raise taxes based on carbon emissions.

From the report: "Certain types of weather events have become more frequent and/or intense"

These are the same goobers who told us - - post-Katrina - - that glo-bull warming was making hurricanes "more frequent and/or intense" - - and yet - -

- - and yet since they made that "scientific projection" 7 1/2 years ago not a single Category 3 hurricane has struck the US mainland. Or - - to put it in their style of rhetoric - - "the longest period without a hurricane EVER!"

There´s no shaming or embarrassing these people. They lust after government grant money - - and they´ll write or do anything to get it.

There seems to be an open competition to produce the most outrageous predictions while staying within the settled parameters of ´settled science´. The winners apparently get more government grants and two weeks at Disney World.

I would assume in a lower avg.income in this economy would put pressure on people to cut spending where thee can and energy consumption has to be one of them. Nobody is intentionally wasting energy except liberals living in huge mansions and flying private jets like AlGore.

Punishing people for using a necessity of life is an absurdity.They´re already complaining about the decrease in gas tax from hybrids which should mean less CO2,if in fact that´s causing GW,which I doubt. I don´t think the CO2 compound holds together in open space but I´m no scientist.

I love the verb ´could.´ Yes, the temperature could rise 10 degrees. It could also fall 10 degrees, or it could stay the same. No matter how the temperature changes, the initial statement is still true.

A major report, it´s a major report. The National Climate Assessment and Development and Advisory Committee was formed in 2010 and is part of the Commerce Dept. The scientific basis of the report is shaky at best. The chair of the committee has his phd in biology the two co-chairs are an economist and an environmental attorney. Propaganda and The Hill loves to spread it.

While we´re speculating let´s look at the other side. Trying to solve a climate change that turns out isn´t really happening could disrupt the economy so severely that there is mass starvation, war, and only a few million humans survive along with just a few animals and virtually no forest.

To see how preposterous global warming/climate change claims have become, simply think of a malady humans want to avoid. Take tooth decay. Do a search for tooth decay and global warming. Or flatulence and global warming. Or dandruff and global warming. Or obesity and global warming. Little remains on this planet, good or bad, that has not been "linked" to cyclic changes that were here long before we were, and will be here long after we are gone.

It´s not global warming - like the pro abortion crowd prefer the phrase pro choice, warming alarmists prefer "climate change" these days. Getting colder? Climate change. Warmer? Climate change. If they could just explain what gas guzzlers they drove a hundred thousand years ago to cause that "climate change," then I´ll give them a hearing. Absurd and fatuous, just like Al the bore Gore.

It is embarrassing when our guys express ignorance on climate issues to the extent a leader in Congress and chairman of an relevant committee says that sun spots cause higher temperatures on Earth, apparently unaware that sunspots are only an indicator of solar activity.

It is vital we skeptics put our knowledgable people in Congress to thwart the ecochondriacs the correct way.

Maybe they should tax China and India (the 2 largest CO2 producers in the world) and mandate that those 2 countries drop their CO2 emissions to US levels.

Bet if the UN actually got seriously interested in taxing China and telling them how to run their industry, the entire man-made global warming nonsense would go away.

Of course, who actually believes that this is about the weather in the first place?

Reality Check!!
If anyone will bother to go check the ONLY truly global temperature set available -- NASA´s low atmosphere monitoring multiple satellite system, they will find the "global warming" ended about 2000 and has been flat ever since; and trending slightly downward the past couple of years.
And if you look at the whole 40 year record you will notice it looks a lot like a sine wave.

The Senate voted down an amendment to the upper chamber´s immigration bill proposed by Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) that would require a full biometric visa tracking system placed at every land, sea, and air port of entry in the United States before legalized immigrants could receive green cards. The measure, which was also called for by the 9/11 Commission in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks, would establish a biometric exit-entry system.

NEW YORK — The New York Police Department´s widespread spying programs directed at Muslims have undermined free worship by innocent people and should be declared unconstitutional, religious leaders and civil rights advocates said Tuesday after the filing of a federal lawsuit. "Our mosque should be an open, religious and spiritual sanctuary, but NYPD spying has turned it into a place of suspicion and censorship," Hamid Hassan Raza, an imam named as a plaintiff, told a rally outside police headquarters shortly after the suit was filed in federal court in Brooklyn.

While the controversy over the National Security Agency surveillance program has dominated the news recently, concern about the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of Tea Party groups and other conservative organizations remains high and is inching up. Despite the large number of controversies engulfing official Washington, the number of people following the IRS scandal has actually increased in recent weeks.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.

Marco Rubio. Paul Ryan. The IRS. Illegal immigration. And fraud to the tune of billions.. Now there’s a combustible mix. Let’s start with the IRS, illegal immigration and fraud. We’ll come back in a minute to Senator Rubio and Congressman Ryan. For those who came in late, a year before the IRS scandals burst onto the scene in early May of 2013, an alert investigative reporter for WTHR-Indianapolis (Channel 13), Bob Segall by name, produced a stunning piece of journalism. Segall’s video report is found here and we will quote from his story for the basics.

It is understood that a contingency plan is in place for the unlikely event that an attempt would be made on the President’s life. The Secret Service also have diplomatic immunity which will allow them to shoot to kill a would-be assassin without fear of prosecution. As part of the “evacuation route” plan, they would be able to spirit the President by chopper to one of the carriers where a jet is on standby to take him back to the United States.
