    Rob Lowe says he feared death during bigfoot encounter

    Well, that certainly is a reliable source. I'm a believer now.

    Perhaps There Never Was Any Warming

    They are if they are in the areas marked yellow brown and red. The others areas don't qualify as the wind speeds are too low and the air hasn't been compressed enough to generate any heat. We used to call the Chinooks in the south (Yes I have lived there) snow-eaters. But I can only remember...

    France to stop granting oil exploration licences

    When are you going to post something that actually makes sense?

    Tesla car battery production releases as much CO2 as 8 years of gasoline driving

    Your article is six years out of date. You have to understand that green tech is not standing still. Solar panels made today are much more efficient than those made even just a few years ago and will probably be even more efficient in years to come. Contrast this with fossil fuels which have...

    Perhaps There Never Was Any Warming

    My kettle begins to cool the instant it is unplugged. It does not keep on heating up the way the world has been doing for the last three decades. Your apologies for global warming are getting weaker and weaker. I live north of Red Deer. We get about one Chinook-like event every decade...

    Perhaps There Never Was Any Warming

    Dimwit? Were you looking in a mirror when you made that comment? There are no Chinooks once you get north of Red Deer, but the last few winters have been very mild. As I said, you are cherry picking weather and ignoring the global aspects of climate change. And why would cooling start in...

    Tesla car battery production releases as much CO2 as 8 years of gasoline driving

    Well, that is just the problem isn't it? Every person in these forums can claim huge amounts of background knowledge. I would say that in Wake's case it is mostly in his imagination since most of his sources are complete pseudoscience.

    France to stop granting oil exploration licences

    Apparently there are a few other dumb-asses who think that the US has a lot of friends in its rejection of the Paris Accord. Well, it has if you think two is a lot. 195 countries signed Paris climate agreement, 2 oppose it. For now...

    Perhaps There Never Was Any Warming

    And you have not been keeping track of the mild winters that western Canada has experienced recently. Don't cherry pick. It is not science.

    Tesla car battery production releases as much CO2 as 8 years of gasoline driving

    How do you explain the fact that green tech now produces electricity more cheaply than fossil fuels? If solar actually cost more to manufacture than it produces that would not be possible. I'm talking industrial green tech - not a few homeowners sticking solar panels on their roofs. If green...

    Tesla car battery production releases as much CO2 as 8 years of gasoline driving

    Really? You don't believe that LED lighting is more energy efficient than conventional lighting? And you don't believe in the improved efficiency of modern electric motors? I think that explains a lot about your denial of global warming.

    Perhaps There Never Was Any Warming

    Well, it should be getting colder. Why isn't it?

    Tesla car battery production releases as much CO2 as 8 years of gasoline driving

    Who cares when the tech was first developed? The entire point is that they were ignored until the last couple of decades. Ditto for solar and wind, two technologies that have been around for centuries, but are just now coming into their own. I suspect we are going to see an explosion in green...

    Tesla car battery production releases as much CO2 as 8 years of gasoline driving

    Just pointing out that things are in the works. The internal combustion engine wasn't perfected overnight either; or the steam engine. In fact both inventions took decades to perfect. People have only been working on green tech and improved batteries only since the demand for that technology...

    France to stop granting oil exploration licences

    Right. That will have about zero impact on a nation that produces almost no oil. Right now France ranks 71st in oil production, about one-third of what British Columbia produces. It's sort of like saying Alberta is going to stop growing oranges.

    Global Warming: still the ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    I certainly would not ask you. Are you inferring that temperatures 20 degrees above normal are the new climate? Looks like you don't know the difference between weather and climate.

    It's fake weather. Just ask Petros.

    Our cooling world

    So what? You do realize California just ended one of the worst droughts in the last 500 years (Actually you probably don't). I doubt anyone is unhappy about the new stockpile of snow in the Sierra Nevadas.
