Viscount Monckton
Writing at Pajamas Media, Viscount Christopher Monckton pulls no punches (read it all, Malcolm Turnbull):
This is what they did — these climate “scientists” on whose unsupported word the world’s classe politique proposes to set up an unelected global government this December in Copenhagen, with vast and unprecedented powers to control all formerly free markets, to tax wealthy nations and all of their financial transactions, to regulate the economic and environmental affairs of all nations, and to confiscate and extinguish all patent and intellectual property rights.
The tiny, close-knit clique of climate scientists who invented and now drive the “global warming” fraud — for fraud is what we now know it to be — tampered with temperature data so assiduously that, on the recent admission of one of them, land temperatures since 1980 have risen twice as fast as ocean temperatures. One of the thousands of emails recently circulated by a whistleblower at the University of East Anglia, where one of the world’s four global-temperature datasets is compiled, reveals that data were altered so as to prevent a recent decline in temperature from showing in the record. In fact, there has been no statistically significant “global warming” for 15 years — and there has been rapid and significant cooling for nine years.
Worse, these arrogant fraudsters — for fraudsters are what we now know them to be — have refused, for years and years and years, to reveal their data and their computer program listings. Now we know why: As a revealing 15,000-line document from the computer division at the Climate Research Unit shows, the programs and data are a hopeless, tangled mess. In effect, the global temperature trends have simply been made up. Unfortunately, the British researchers have been acting closely in league with their U.S. counterparts who compile the other terrestrial temperature dataset — the GISS/NCDC dataset. That dataset too contains numerous biases intended artificially to inflate the natural warming of the 20th century.
Finally, these huckstering snake-oil salesmen and “global warming” profiteers — for that is what they are — have written to each other encouraging the destruction of data that had been lawfully requested under the Freedom of Information Act in the UK by scientists who wanted to check whether their global temperature record had been properly compiled. And that procurement of data destruction, as they are about to find out to their cost, is a criminal offense. They are not merely bad scientists — they are crooks. And crooks who have perpetrated their crimes at the expense of British and U.S. taxpayers.
I am angry, and so should you be.

Australian Climate Madness 
Yet Malcolm Turnbull in Australia supports Kevin Rudd in his glory seeking rush to sign a piece of legislation damaging the Australian economy so as to appear a global leader. Australia, 13 million people hanging off the bottom of the planet, will now cut its CO2 emissions. Won’t that be nice for the Rest of The World.
Most Australians are capable of watching footie on TV but beyond that there are only a few able to, or willing to, question the statements from the powers that be. Even those able to would, however, rather get someone else to tell them what life is about.
Australia confirms it is a sad little backwater overcome with the big boys of the World. The PM of said dominion, as do many leaders in lesser countries, play the game for their own aggrandisement. For the satisfaction of their ego.
They cannot grasp even the simplest of concepts; that CO2 is life and ETS is merely a tax. Further, that the more government interferes in the activities of us humans the more things usually go wrong. But some continue to believe in social engineering, sadly.
Rudd the Marxist, however, also reveals a lack of understanding of the business cycle. He is, to use his terms, a neo-lioberalist. But he is happy to sign a Treaty handing 2% of GDP and a larger amount from taxing financial transactions – all in all amounting to many Billions.
Given the lack of control over the Obama spend one can be equally sure there will be no controls over how this Global Government doles out this money to its favoured constituents. Billions will disappear into the maws of dictators and other no-gooders.
CO2 will continue to increase, the temperature will stay as it is, and the ‘believers’ will claim victory. There are enough ‘climate scientists’ around who will willingly fudge the data.
