I found the book “Climatism!!” by Steve Goreham to be so fascinating that I could hardly stop reading. It should become a best seller since it exposes the greatest fraud in recent history.
From what Steve documents in the book, it appears that many of the world’s nations are committing economic suicide in the name of reduced carbon dioxide levels, while China and India continue to build coal fired power plants that will overwhelm any of their efforts. And, since it is provably clear that increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are only a bit player in affecting the current natural cycle of global warming, it seems like the world has gone crazy. Furthermore, with energy being the driving force for economic growth and free enterprise, it boggles my mind to see the Waxman-Markey Energy Bill being given serious consideration in the face of current high unemployment in the United States.
I was particularly intrigued by the fact that the science of manmade global warming is primarily based upon inaccurate and misleading computer models. Since water vapor is the primary greenhouse gas in the earth’s atmosphere – not carbon dioxide – these models currently cannot, and do not, accurately predict relative humidity and cloud cover. As a result, the analytical predictions are “force fitted” to match historical data. If we know the result that we are trying to achieve, and we have numerous independent variables to manipulate, we can get the computer analysis to predict almost any result we want!!
Although almost every page of the book contains documented facts to dispute global warming alarmists, I found that manipulation of the famous “hockey stick” graph to be the most disturbing. The graph completely ignores the indisputable fact of global warming that occurred in the middle ages; and illustrates, beyond any doubt, that the manmade global warming scare is politically motivated.
Furthermore, the deceptions resulting from the manipulated data from East Anglia University, plus other facts presented in Steve’s book, should put an end to this political charade. My concern now is for honest people who must now reject the false claims that they so fervently believe.
After reading the book, I have concluded that if the sponsoring organizations – especially the IPCC — supporting man caused global warming were to be tried in a court of law, they would unquestionably be found guilty of fraud and deception to the highest degree.

The “Kerry-Boxer” bill made its way through the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee this morning, despite bipartisan opposition to the bill. The legislation calls for an ambitious 20% reduction in carbon emissions by 2020, a number that will undoubtedly meet tough opposition by Senate Republicans and coal state Democrats. Montana Senator Max Baucus already voiced his displeasure with the number, saying he had “overall concerns” about the effects of a 20% cut. However, Baucus did pledge to work with Senate Democrats to craft climate change legislation.
Today, the Oregon based Cascade Policy Institute released “Climate Chains,” a documentary that “exposes extreme environmentalism and the misguided pursuit of cap-and-trade legislation.” The Minnesota Free Market Institute featured the documentary last night as part of its program with Lord Christopher Monckton. 
As the snow flew in the Twin Cities yesterday, many Minnesotans had to question the now seemingly mainstream theory of anthropogenic global warming. The cold snap broke records from 
The Minnesota Free Market Institute will host Lord Christopher Monckton Wednesday, October 14th at the Benson Great Hall on the campus of Bethel University. The evening starts at 7:00 pm with the national premiere of the Cascade Policy Institute documentary, “Climate Chains” (view the trailer 
Climategate “Reviewed” (Again)
July 19th, 2010 by Kim CrockettLast fall, the “Climategate” scandal erupted when emails and documents from the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit (CRU) were released (without permission) to the public. The CRU emails, including some with Michael Mann at Penn State, revealed a pattern of conduct that no one– but especially no scientist– would be proud of; requests to delete inconvenient emails, the exclusion of scientitists who are viewed as “skeptics” from the peer review process and hiding the ball from formal information requests. The terrible fall out–and the lesson to be learned for all of us— is that “science” has been revealed to be quite vulnerable to political pressures especially when combined with generous grants. The old saying “Follow the Money” certainly applies here. That sad point was made last summer at our Climate Change Symposium by Dr. Fred Singer. (And we continue to follow this important issue because the global warming activists, lead by Al Gore et. al., have captured our government at the local, state and federal level. The impact on free enterprise and individual freedom is profound.)
Climategate has now been “reviewed” several times by organizations we should be able to trust; a special committee of the British Parliament, Penn State, an environmental agency of the Netherlands and most recently the University of East Anglia itself.
The Minnesot Free Market Institute (and other members of the No Cap and Trade coalition) approach these “reviews” with great skepticism. The reviews seem less than indepedent in their methodology and conclusions; the self-dealing is just compounded . Moreover, we are impressed with the speed with which they were all done. It seems that the institutions who are committed to the UN’s view of global warming (which relies on CRU data) were in quite a hurry to do damage control following Climategate.
The Wall Street Journal, which shares our skepticism, covered the latest review here: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703394204575367483847033948.html
