AP reports: Ironically, 2008 is on pace to be a slightly cooler year in a steadily rising temperature trend line. Experts say it’s thanks to a La Nina weather variation. While skeptics are already using it as evidence of some kind of cooling trend, it actually illustrates how fast the world is warming.Wha? Cool = warm? How does one take AP seriously?
Hysterical AP Report Parrots Al Gore Globwarm Nonsense
JammieWearingFool —
There's not even any attempt at objective reporting . Get a load of this drivel. When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, global warming was a slow-moving environmental problem that was easy to ignore. Now it is a ticking time bomb that President-elect Barack Obama can't avoid. Since Clinton's inauguration, summer Arctic sea ice has lost the equivalent of Alaska, California and Texas. The 10 hottest years on record have occurred since Clinton's second inauguration. Global warming is accelerating. Time is close to running out, and Obama knows it . "The time for delay is over; ...

My Way News - Obama left with little time to curb global warming
other Nature, of course, is oblivious to the federal government’s machinations. Ironically, 2008 is on pace to be a slightly cooler year in a steadily rising temperature trend line. Experts say it’s thanks to a La Nina weather variation. While skeptics are already using it as evidence of some kind of cooling trend, it actually illustrates how fast the world is warming.

... ever seen. In writer Seth Borenstein's view, climate change is "a ticking time bomb that President-elect Barack Obama can't avoid." "Global warming is accelerating. Time is close to running out, and Obama knows it." Where's Rod Serling? For those that can stand it, here are some of Borenstein's disgraceful lowlights: When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, global ...

AP Loses All Credibility
The Corner on National Review Online —
Monday, December 15, 2008 [image] AP Loses All Credibility [Iain Murray] Jonah asked me about this, so that's why it's appearing here and not on Planet Gore. The AP's environmental science writer Seth Borenstein has long been recognized as an advocate for climate alarmism, but he has really jumped the shark in his latest effort : When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, global warming was a slow-moving environmental problem that was easy to ignore. Now it is a ticking time bomb that President-elect Barack Obama can't avoid. Since Clinton's inauguration, summer Arctic sea ice has ...

... about five minutes into the effort. I did manage to finish in about 20 minutes, getting back into the house at just the moment one of the First Mate’s friends informed us that they knew of a service that would have done the job for about twelve dollars. I probably would have spent that much to stay warm. For the record, our below-zero days usually come in January and February, not December. It looks as though we will have a second long, cold winter in a row. That’s what makes this report from the AP so ludicrous: When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, global warming was a ...
Environmental "Chicken Littles" have come home to roost at the AP
Wizbang —
As if we don't have enough to worry about already, Associated Press editorial science writer Seth Borenstein has thrown together a global warming scare piece that reads more like a press release from AlGore.com than an intelligently researched news article. According to Borenstein, the planet is already doomed because we did not act soon enough to stop global warming, and there is so little time left that even the divine efforts Barack Obama may not be enough. Borenstein claims: Since Clinton's inauguration, summer Arctic sea ice has lost the equivalent of Alaska, California ...

Green Energy Bubble Bursting Already
Moonbattery —
Now I get why global warming hysteria has been going into overdrive lately, despite falling temperatures encasing the country in ice:
A slackening in the growth rate of fossil fuel consumption gave comfort to environmentalists in 2008, as recession began to grip global economies. But, in most respects, this year was awful for the green bandwagon, which came to a halt as debt and equity finance dried up.

... the Archimedes Principle.” Very interesting. Raises … if you’ll excuse the expression … the question of why water levels have dramatically fluctuated over the eons as a result of ice ages. The simple answer to that is, that ice wasn’t floating. It was sitting on top of continents. That’s my scientifically semi-literate guess, anyway. That would make it melting continental ice, not sea ice, that raised the water levels. Nods to Hot Air and Q&O . Original AP warmalism here .
