The State of the Climate
During the hot 1990s, many government scientists predicted Arctic Ice would be gone during the summers, by 2013. Al Gore’s famous film “An Inconvenient Truth,” claimed that Arctic sea ice would be gone in the summer as early as 2015. But by the time 2013 came around, Arctic sea ice had grown by 533,000 square …

According to climatologist Steven Goddard, “Almost half of all reported US temperature data is now fake. [The government] fill[s] in missing rural data with urban data to create the appearance of non-existent US warming.” See here.As the globe continues its long-term cooling trend, the climate-change-socialist movement appears to be simply faking the data.

They claim that wealthy political donors spend millions to push free-market economics, and thwart the supposedly sensible policies promoted by government supremacists. Nothing could be …

Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are bolstering plant life worldwide.
Forget what you may have heard from your teacher, your professor, your politician or your pope. Rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere are greening the planet–not desertifying it. Environmental scientists report in a newly published peer-reviewed study that satellite measurements of global plant life contradict assertions by governments that global warming is causing deserts to …
