PhysOrg: Following Saturday's Australian federal election, Ms Hanson said her One Nation Party colleague Malcolm Roberts had "all the answers to this climate change BS we are being fed". University of Queensland School of Psychology researcher Dr Timothy Ballard recently completed a study that translated climate change trends into economics and demographics. "For instance, we took the figures for the shrinkage of Arctic Sea ice and turned it into a profit statement of the fictitious Supreme Widget Corporation,"...

Notice to warming deniers: Weather and climate are different things
2016-06-28 15:24:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Newport Independent: Global-warming skeptics love to make the argument that the changeability of weather forecasts in the short term disproves claims by climate scientists that potential disaster lies just a few decades away as the planet heats up. The fundamental problem with such skepticism is that weather and climate are not the same thing. TV meteorologists are not climatologists. Sometimes it's more difficult to predict whether Sunday's ballgame will be rained out than whether melting glaciers will cause...

NASA Facebook page manager has had enough with climate deniers

Grist: We invite you to comment on our page, but we ask that you be courteous and cite credible sources when sharing information. Thats the disclaimer posted atop NASAs Global Climate Change Facebook page. And judging from the normally staid government agencys response to a handful of climate change deniers who ran amok this week under a post by media personality Bill Nye, they mean it. Nye, known as the Science Guy, shared a story on NASAs page Monday about a climate change denier who refused...

Radiation deniers: pro-nuclear environmentalists and the Chernobyl death toll

Ecologist: Just as climate change deniers leap from scientific uncertainty over the precise impacts of greenhouse gas emissions to certainty of little or no impact at all, so 'pro-nuclear environmentalists' conflate uncertainty of the mortality arising from Chernobyl and other nuclear disasters to certainty of few if any deaths, writes Jim Green. Their position is equally indefensible. With few if any exceptions, self-styled pro-nuclear environmentalists peddle flapdoodle and tommyrot regarding the Chernobyl...

GOPs climate change minimizers are risk deniers

Washington Post: I just think we have much bigger risks, Donald Trump told us last week. We had asked the Republican presidential candidate about human-caused climate change, a phenomenon in which he said he is not a big believer. Dont good business leaders hedge against risks, spending something now to avoid potentially negative outcomes later? I think our biggest form of climate change we should worry about is nuclear weapons, he responded. Trump is not alone among Republicans in citing other scary problems...
