Regular viewers of BBC News or readers of their web site know that the BBC has been the leading promoter of global warming alarmism among the major media. It therefore comes as real news that the BBC has recognized that the lack of any global warming for the past decade presents a problem for the alarmists to explain. BBC weatherman and climate correspondent Paul Hudson published an article last Friday titled, “What Happened to Global Warming?”

The Fecklessness of Climate Diplomacy
William Yeatman, RealClearWorld.com, 16 July 2009
The fecklessness of climate diplomacy was on full display last week at the Group of Eight summit of industrialized countries in Italy, where the international community simultaneously vowed to limit global warming and disavowed the necessary action to do so.
Al and Friends Create a Climate of McCarthyism
Bjorn Lomborg, The Australian, 16 July 2009
Discussions about global warming are marked by an increasing desire to stamp out “impure” thinking, to the point of…
It’s Getting Cold Out There
Debra Saunders, San Francisco Chronicle, 11 July 2009
No wonder skeptics consider the left’s belief in man-made global warming as akin to a fad religion - last week in Italy, G-8 leaders pledged not to allow the Earth’s temperature to rise more than 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
Climate Bill Ineffective
Kathryn Gaines, Human Events, 13 July 2009
House Democratic leaders must be in a state of shock. The EPA announced that the Waxman-Markey Bill, the cap-and-trade bill, would not “materially effect…
Cheney Coal Plan Gets $1 Billion Boost…From Obama
Tim Carney, Washington Examiner, 17 June 2009
Leading coal and electricity companies on Friday won a billion-dollar chunk of stimulus money from the Obama administration, highlighting once again how President Barack Obama’s anti-lobbyist and anti-big business rhetoric is divorced from his actions.

Global Warming Book Review
Myron Ebell, Standpoint Magazine, 10 June 2009
Both these books look comprehensively at global warming and cover much the same ground in much the same order. There the similarities end. First published last year, Lord Lawson’s Appeal is the best short book on the entire range of issues in the global warming debate that is available from a British publisher. This paperback edition with a substantial new afterword is therefore most welcome. Lawson is lucid, thoughtful and fair-minded.…
Behind the Cap-and-Trade Curtain
Max Shulz, National Review Online, 9 June 2009
Proponents of a cap-and-trade program to combat global warming face an uphill fight. For all their attempts to spin it as a solely environmental issue about saving the planet from extinction, the reality is that it’s a political question that ultimately comes down to economic tradeoffs.
Plan To Fight Global Warming? Pie in the Sky
Jonah Goldberg, Los Angeles Times, 9 June 2009
The latest example of anthropogenic-lunar empowerment is global warming. Al…
Global Warming vs. the Real World
Christopher Booker, Telegraph, 7 June 2009
It might well be called “the tale of two planets”. On one planet live all the Great and Good who have recently been trying to whip up an ever greater panic over global warming, as the clock ticks down to next December’s UN conference in Copenhagen when they plan a new treaty to follow the Kyoto Protocol of 1997.

Cap-and-Trade, All Cost and No Benefit
Martin Feldstein, Washington Post, 1 June 2009
In my judgment, the proposed cap-and-trade system would be a costly policy that would penalize Americans with little effect on global warming. The proposal to give away most of the permits only makes a bad idea worse. Taxpayers and legislators should keep these things in mind before enacting any cap-and-trade system.

The Biggest Tax Increase in World History
Myron Ebell, Human Events, 27 May 2009
The House Energy and Commerce Committee on the evening of May 21 passed the biggest piece of the Obama administration and Congressional Democrats’ agenda to put the federal government in charge of the American economy. On a 33 to 25 vote, the Committee approved the “American Clean Energy and Security Act,” H. R. 2454. The 946-page energy-rationing bill is better known as Waxman-Markey, named after its two chief…
Cap-and-Trade Is a License to Cheat-and-Steal
Bill O’ Keefe, DC Examiner, 19 May 2009
One of James Bond’s first movies captured attention with the title “License to Kill.” Today, Washington, D.C., is setting the stage to compete with Hollywood in the sensational headlines market. Members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee are in the process of scripting climate change legislation worthy of being titled “License to Cheat and Steal.”
