I'm working on one but priorities are priorities and I'm just finishing up my Infanticide trilogy. I'm looking for other jokes to go with "Infanticide is a horrific form of smotherly love." Any help I can get from you guys here to help me finish my trilogy means I can start the laugh train on the rainforest peccadillo. Off the top of my head I'm thinking I could sort of center it around a "fireside chat" theme. 1

Buffalo_Gal Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Court rules Obama EPA violated law on Waters of the United States Rule More than nine months after the last hearing in the case, and nearly nine months to the day of the briefing deadline for that hearing, U.S. District Judge Lisa Godbey Wood handed a victory to the state of Georgia and nine other states that sued the federal government over the Obama administration’s 2015 Waters of the United States Rule. Wood stated that the rule, which was intended to provide better protection of the nation’s water, violated the Clean Water Act and the Administrative Procedure Act, and she remanded it back to the Environmental Protection Agency and the Army Corps of Engineers for further work. </snip> The ruling only affects the states that are parties to the case, where an injunction was already in effect — Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Utah and West Virginia. Wisconsin was a party to the suit but dropped out in April. </snip>
Buffalo_Gal Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Bad week for the global warming crowd, I guess. The post below is loaded with links to click: Michael Mann, creator of the infamous global warming ‘hockey stick,’ loses lawsuit against climate skeptic, ordered to pay defendant’s costs Michael Mann, a climatologist at Penn State University, is the creator of the “hockey stick graph” that appears to show global temperatures taking a noticeable swing upward in the era when humanity has been burning fossil fuels and dumping CO2 into the atmosphere. The graph was first published in 1998, prominently featured in the 2001 UN Climate Report, and formed part of Al Gore’s 2006 movie, An Inconvenient Truth. The graph’s methodology and accuracy have been and continue to be hotly contested, but Mann has taken the tack of suing two of his most prominent critics for defamation or libel. One case, against Mark Steyn, is called by Steyn likely to end up in the Supreme Court. But another case, against Dr. Tim Ball was decided by the Supreme Court of British Columbia, with Mann’s case thrown out, and him ordered to pay the defendant’s legal costs, no doubt a tidy sum of money. News first broke in Wattsupwiththat, via an email Ball sent to Anthony Watt. Later, Principia-Scientific offered extensive details, including much background on the hockey stick. </snip> Dr Mann lost his case because he refused to show in open court his R2 regression numbers (the ‘working out’) behind the world-famous ‘hockey stick’ graph (shown below). </snip> 1 1

B-Man Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 IT’S COME TO THIS: Stop Sharing Those Viral Photos of the Amazon Burning, says…Mother Jones, astonishingly enough. Earlier: Don’t Panic: Amazon Burning Is Mostly Farms, Not Forests. .
B-Man Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 FIRE IN THE MINDS OF (CLIMATE) MEN “Fire in the minds of men” is a phrase from Dostoyevsky’s great novel about revolutionary madness, The Possessed, and certainly it appears the climatistas are possessed by a panic that proceeds from their monomania. Once again last night I saw a segment on one of the network news broadcasts about how the Amazon “rain forest”—the “lungs of the earth,” don’t you know!—are burning up! With a record area on fire! There are pictures! And satellite photos. Surely this is proof that carbon dioxide will cause catastrophic warming 80 years from now. There’s just one problem with this story: many of the main claims aren’t true, or are grossly distorted. (I know what you’re thinking: Gee, this never happens.) Consider this assessment: Natural fires in the Amazon are rare, and the majority of these fires were set by farmers preparing Amazon-adjacent farmland for next year’s crops and pasture. Much of the land that is burning was not old-growth rain forest, but land that had already been cleared of trees and set for agricultural use. What climate denier said this monstrous thing? Oh, right, it was the New York Times last Friday. ,

He warned that their scientific conclusion is considered a spoiler for the final season of Lost but also said that the season was “terrible” and that “no one should watch it.” 1
