A Call for Hearings on Fraudulent Climate Science
Now that the lid has been blown off of the Climate Crisis Fraud, it’s time for the U.S. Senate to conduct hearings into the mess. Yesterday, Senator James Inhofe (R OK) called for hearings with a letter to Senator Ma’am, head of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works (EPW). Inhofe, the ranking member of the committee, released this yesterday (excerpt):
Washington, D.C.—Sen. James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, sent a letter today to EPW Committee Chairman Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) requesting hearings on the recent disclosure of emails between some of the world’s most preeminent climatologists—emails that reveal apparent attempts to manipulate data, vilify scientists with opposing viewpoints, and circumvent information disclosure laws.
“The emails reveal possible deceitful manipulation of important data and research used by the US Global Change Research Program and the IPCC,” Inhofe wrote. “For instance, one scientist wrote of a ‘trick’ he employed to ‘hide the decline’ in global temperature trends, as well as discussed attempts to ‘redefine what the peer-review literature is’ to prevent papers raising questions about anthropogenic global warming from appearing in IPCC reports.” [more…]
Wanderlust
Damsel and I have been talking about a possible winter vacation. We enjoyed the last one we took when we visited the Grand Canyon and other interesting places in Arizona and California. We had the cold weather, but we didn’t seem to mind it. We kept warm and cozy and dressed for the weather.
We would like to go again, but don’t know exactly when and where. Just thinking about all the possibilities has given me terrible wanderlust. So many places would be suitable, but we can’t go everywhere.
Decisions, decisions.
Hopefully, we can see some scenery like in this photo Damsel took last winter while we were on the road from Flagstaff to Grand Canyon. The Canyon had four straight days of snow and drifts up to several feet high. There were icicles on the eaves of all the buildings and wherever they could form on the red rocks and in the trees. It was like living in a Christmas card.
It must have been that Global Warming that makes it cold some places. 😉
