Did you know that this past February is the coldest in US history since 1894? This sure is some Global Warming. Compare and contrast: media coverage of this vs. media coverage of (hypothetical) warmest February in 127 years.
44 climate doomsday predictions that haven't panned out. Related: NYT said that US east coast beaches would all be under water by 2020. "Paper of Record" ... (via)
Quite frankly, this sums up Global Warming prognostication quite well:
I've posted before about the record high temperatures that were seen in 1936. As it turns out, that's only part of the story. 1936 was the year for "Climate Disruption" - and we've had 85 years of more carbon dioxide going into the atmosphere since then but haven't seen such record bad weather. Hmmmm ...
In non-climate dumbness, here's a list of the top 150 intellectuals. Color me unimpressed, although the biggest objection is the use of "intellectual" to apply non-perjoritively in this degraded age. I would have expected Arnold Kling to not put Joe Rogan as high as #1, or Thomas Sowell as low as #71. Hat tip: Chris Lynch who points out the list is silly.

That's on the money... I worked with real climatologists who said flat out that it was all BS for funding/donations/etc...
DailyTimeWaster had a nice 'before' and 'after' picture of a Roman port. Before is the port on the coast, after is modern times with the port a mile or two inland, due to "rising" sea levels...
Geez, that was an awful list. Somebody loves them some Never Trump grifters.
Whenever someone begins a conversation by self-identifying as an intellectual, I pretty soon tend to think they are mistaken.
