A few years ago, I had commented on the fact that in 2010 the United Nations (in perhaps yet another of its many endeavours to deflect attention from its abysmal failure in meeting its original mandate) took the progressive (and “precautionary”, no doubt) step of appointing a “space ambassador to greet alien visitors”. Contemporaneous news…
As the credibility of United Nations continues its (now) traditional path of rapid decline, that it tries to paper-over with self-perpetuating hype and promotion (not the least of which are generated by the United Nations Environment Program [UNEP], inventor and promulgator of scary stores since 1972), there are some recent reports worth noting. About a…
Penn State Dean Falsely Says He Was Awarded a Nobel. Donna Laframboise’s new blog. A much needed public service which addresses yet another failure on the part of the MSM to investigate claims made by IPCC scientists and activists Be sure to visit by following link above, or from my blogroll at right!

I subscribe to the CBC’s…
Last night while listening to the radio, I heard a CBC rerun of a program called The 180. It was a most depressing experience listening to some brainwashed characters repeating the “must have a carbon tax” mantra as though they were totally oblivious to the results of such a policy in the U.K., Europe and…
On the heels of the release of a draft of Working Group I (WGI)’s contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)’s Fifth Assessment Report (AR5), the U.K. Royal Society, one of the IPCC’s illustrious cheerleaders, has been holding a two-day meeting to discuss this report and the “next steps in climate science”.
