56 Chicken Little newspapers on climate change

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 7, 2009 09:29 AM

Make sure you keep this list of 56 newspapers handy when looking for thorough, fair coverage of the ClimateChange scandal.

These are 56 newspapers that you cannot trust on the issue:

Today, the eco-herd of papers published a collective editorial whipping up hysteria over the issue in the face of massive data manipulation, suppression, and bullying of dissenters.

Someone should translate the phrase “Hide the Decline” in all the 20-plus languages editorial has been printed in and stamp it across their front pages:

Today 56 newspapers in 45 countries take the unprecedented step of speaking with one voice through a common editorial. We do so because humanity faces a profound emergency.

Unless we combine to take decisive action, climate change will ravage our planet, and with it our prosperity and security. The dangers have been becoming apparent for a generation. Now the facts have started to speak: 11 of the past 14 years have been the warmest on record, the Arctic ice-cap is melting and last year’s inflamed oil and food prices provide a foretaste of future havoc. In scientific journals the question is no longer whether humans are to blame, but how little time we have got left to limit the damage. Yet so far the world’s response has been feeble and half-hearted.

…The science is complex but the facts are clear. The world needs to take steps to limit temperature rises to 2C, an aim that will require global emissions to peak and begin falling within the next 5-10 years. A bigger rise of 3-4C — the smallest increase we can prudently expect to follow inaction — would parch continents, turning farmland into desert. Half of all species could become extinct, untold millions of people would be displaced, whole nations drowned by the sea. The controversy over emails by British researchers that suggest they tried to suppress inconvenient data has muddied the waters but failed to dent the mass of evidence on which these predictions are based…

…Social justice demands that the industrialised world digs deep into its pockets and pledges cash to help poorer countries adapt to climate change, and clean technologies to enable them to grow economically without growing their emissions. The architecture of a future treaty must also be pinned down – with rigorous multilateral monitoring, fair rewards for protecting forests, and the credible assessment of “exported emissions” so that the burden can eventually be more equitably shared between those who produce polluting products and those who consume them. And fairness requires that the burden placed on individual developed countries should take into account their ability to bear it; for instance newer EU members, often much poorer than “old Europe”, must not suffer more than their richer partners.

The transformation will be costly, but many times less than the bill for bailing out global finance — and far less costly than the consequences of doing nothing.

No amount of evidence will dent the cult’s belief in AGW and the need for what the collectivist editorialists call transformative “social justice.”

We’ve heard apocalyptic threats against “doing nothing” before. Let’s remember how the Chicken Little story ends.

    That’s it in a nutshell – Massive redistribution of wealth.

    They need to hurry and get this through, their window is running out because people are starting to wake up.

    11 of the last 14 years are the warmest on record? Who’s record? East Anglia CRUs? NASAs? NOAA?

    The chief US negotiator in Copenhagen, Jonathan Pershing, blasted so-called Climategate as a non-affair and “opportunistic”.

    “It just happens to be the topic of the moment. It is a misrepresentation of the robustness of science,” he said.

    “… There are many data sets and they all show the same true type of change, (of) significant damages. I look at this and I think to myself, it’s opportunistic.”

    My question to this clown act is – you show me the data sets then prove to me they are not corrupted. Second – prove to me the hottest years were in the last 11 to 14 – when all the data I have ever seen shows the 1930′s hotter than now.

Keep it up folks, and we will no longer be able to comment on ANY threads. You know who you are and shame on you. I went to the first, featured thread this a.m. only to find it had also been shut down. There are 3 or 4 of you who completely commandeered the thread. Go to the thread and see who they are. This is so wrong, and you know it. If it continues, many of the posters who want an honest debate about the topics will flee. Be warned.

    Now, enough from me and I’m sorry, but I just needed to get that off my chest. If any of the hijackers are reading this…I am not saying these things to “encourage” a response from you. You have already said quite enough!!

    An increase in (global average) temperature but 3-4 degrees will cause all that? Puhleeze.

    So let me get this straight. Farmland in say Michigan, would turn into “desert” in say Arizona. Come on down to AZ and I will show you thousands of acres of wonderful farmland that grows 365 days a year. Food flowing out of those farms faster than northern states who are too cold for planting 1/3 the year. And this is deep in the Valley of the Sun where it gets HOT most of the year. Or perhaps my lack of a ejumacation prevents me from understanding things. I am just a lowly aerospace engineer after all.

    We’ve heard apocalyptic threats against “doing nothing” before. Let’s remember how the Chicken Little story ends.

    Exactly. This is how TARP was passed. The trojan horse Treasury Secretary Paulson told everyone that “doing nothing” would lead to the end of America as we know it.

    Many stupid Republicans voted in favor of TARP, while many “blue dog” Democrats were allowed to vote against it, creating the impression that Democrats were more fiscally conservative than Republicans. As a result, some of the people who wanted more fiscal conservatism voted for what they thought was “CHANGE”, and instead got orders of magnitude more government spending.

    The purpose of TARP was to influence the 2008 election and give hundreds of Billions of dollars along with unconstitutional powers to the Secretary of the Treasury. The money was not spent on what they said it would be spent on, so not only was this a classic bait and switch, but it reveals that the whole “sky is falling” scenario that Paulson threatened was a complete hoax.

    “Doing nothing” would have been much better than falling for the Chicken Little scenarios.

    Exactly. If you look at it in the terms the envirofrauds are, then they should similarly include oxygen as a toxic gas, as it high concentrations, it is quite toxic.

    Maybe we should revert the climate/environment to the state of affairs that existed before plants inundated the atmosphere with toxic oxygen…

    Make it 69. Houston Chronicle page three featured two articles covering climate issues and Copenhagen. Nowhere in all of the text that covered the entire page was any mention made of the e-mails that have changed the complexion of the discussion. This is why newspapers are dying.

    Yes. It is starting already. From this day forth all media will begin running subliminal messages telling us to breath less and send money to algore so he can carry on the heavy lifting of the war on climate change.

    purealchemy,
    If you change the size of your browser window (don’t have it maximized, but rather adjust the width on your own), you can make it so that you don’t see the ad to the left and right, but rather just the normal text from MM’s site.

    That worked for me with Internet Explorer.

    A bigger rise of 3-4C — the smallest increase we can prudently expect to follow inaction — would parch continents, turning farmland into desert.

    Isn’t it easier to claim little fish are getting sucked into irrigation pumps and stop providing water for farming? We must save the world from farming the way we saved all those African children from malaria…

    purealchemy,

    Sorry I didn’t see your follow-up question sooner…

    If you are using Internet explorer, there are three boxes in the upper right-hand corner. From left to right, they look like a box with an underscore, a box with two windows in it, and a box with an X.

    Clicking the middle box should toggle you back and forth between “Restore” (not full-screen) and “Maximize” (full screen).

    When you are in the “restore” (not full-screen) mode, you can change the size of the window by putting your mouse over an edge of the window (where the cursor changes from a pointer to a line with arrows on each end), then click and drag to make the window larger or smaller.

    I hope that helps.

    Red Pill, got ‘er done!

    I’ve done that click and drag thing before with windows but I needed to get the screen into that restore mode.

    Don’t you think an ad like that would generate a lot of revenue for MM?

    These same newspaper editorialists would no doubt smirk and heap scorn on the Christian faithful who say that mankind needs to straighten up before the Second Coming — they’d deride it as “superstition” based on ignorance and fear… trying to coerce others into an unscientific and rigidly dogmatic view of the world, etc.

    But when it’s their own “religion” of The Coming Ice Age(TM) Global Warming(TM) Climate Change(TM) that’s subject to scrutiny, somehow the same blind faith is a good thing.

    They don’t just think that you’re stupid. They think that you’re effing stupid.

    The transformation will be costly, but many times less than the bill for bailing out global finance — and far less costly than the consequences of doing nothing.

    The carbon reduction that President Obama is promising to achieve by 2050 will set our economy back to 1875 levels. I guarantee that will be more costly than doing nothing. Tiger Woods, for one, is finding out that “doing nothing” can save you a whole lot of dough and a whole lot of grief.

    Even if the temperature stations around the world had remained unchanged over the years, the average of their temperatures for any given year is only an approximation of the temperature of the earth’s surface. There is a huge margin of error involved, making it impossible to get an exact temperature of the earth at any given time, let alone for an entire year.

    With all the changes, additions, and deletions of temperature stations around the globe, the margin of error is too complicated to compute accurately. But the error has to be greater than the .8 C they say the earth has warmed over the past century. Now they expect us to believe that their warming estimate for the past and their warming predictions for the future are not only accurate but infallible. How stupid do they think we are?
