As you turn up the heating you must remember…snow, icy artic winds and spring delayed….. this is only ‘weather’. The underlying trend is an ever increasing heating of the Globe bringing with it apocalyptic extremes of climate variously burning and drowning the world in a Biblical scourge of the guilty gassers.
The BBC’s latest tale of grim retribution by Mother Nature has the revelation that you’d better dig out your water wings….we’re gonna drown folks…washed away by a Tsunami of ever rising tides as the massed bodies of dead polar bears force sea levels to rise engulfing us in floods that would have had Noah setting to work.
Former Vice President Al Gore summed up this view when he wrote: “Every night on the news now, practically, is like a nature hike through the book of Revelations.
The Drowning City
In October last year, Hurricane Sandy ripped into New York, taking lives, sparking a huge fire, flooding subways and tunnel connections and leaving thousands without power for days.
Isabel Hilton reports on the aftermath of the hurricane in New York. As sea levels are predicted to keep rising, she looks at what New York and other threatened coastal cities might do to prepare for future storms.
Hurricane Sandy was a wake up call to New York and to many other coastal cities that have to face the reality of rising sea levels and increased chances of hurricanes and storm surges.
And if you think ‘New York…so what?’…you’d be so so wrong…..
Why London could be “doomed”
Isabel Hilton reports on the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy in New York.
She speaks to Irwin Redlener, MD of The National Center for Disaster Preparedness and seismologist Klaus Jacobs who tells her why rising sea levels mean London and other cities could be “doomed”.
Is Hurrican Sandy the result of global warming? Is there a rise in extreme climate?
New Report: ‘Extreme Weather Report 2012’: ‘Latest peer-reviewed studies, data & analyses undermine claims that current weather is ‘unprecedented’ or a ‘new normal’
Guess not.
The BBC’s whole case is based on the Earth warming …so how does it explain the fact that it hasn’t warmed for at least 17 years….as even the IPPC’s boss, Rajendra Pachauri now admits.….no warming…how can there be extreme weather caused by warming if there is no warming? ….and if so why aren’t we talking about it…especially as Pachauri says:
‘Nothing off-limits’ in climate debate’
THE UN’s climate change chief, Rajendra Pachauri, has acknowledged a 17-year pause in global temperature rises, confirmed recently by Britain’s Met Office, but said it would need to last “30 to 40 years at least” to break the long-term global warming trend.
Dr Pachauri, the chairman of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, said that open discussion about controversial science and politically incorrect views was an essential part of tackling climate change.
And it seems others have long had doubts about the alarmism:
The UK Guardian’s Leo Hickman, a prominent media activist for man-made global warming, was embarrassed by Gore’s extreme weather link to man-made global warming linkage.
“I was a little nervous this morning logging into Climate Reality…And, I have to say, my heart immediately sank,” when viewing it, Hickman wrote. Hickman asked: “Is Gore now a help or hindrance to global warming cause?” See: Hickman on Gore’s ‘Death by PowerPoint’— “I have suffered this torture too many times over the years…[Gore’s show had] slide after slide of extreme weather events…& linking everyone, it seemed, to rise in [man-made] emissions…that is a very contentious peg on which to hang your hat…That kind of talk traditionally requires lots of caveats and careful explaining. Done with abandon and raw emotion – as this presenter seemed to be doing – and you are quickly labeled in some quarters as a climate ‘alarmist.’”
Maybe all and sundry should have a read of this, it puts things into a little perspective:

Lose the Graun and you are lost.
Though after Attaboygate and the 3 degrees of separation from reality, Mr Hickman may be advised to beware redactions on his invite to BBC expert guest panels.

London is no longer a English city anymore, it’s lost to ‘yoofs’ and Islam.

Can we start with the “yoofs” and Islam?
let’s see how quickly the beeboids would re-locate to somewhere like… White City in London. Obviously the name would have to change first though.

In 1540 there was a Europe wide seven month long drought during which large sections of major rivers like the Rhine dried up. In 1703 there was a major storm in southern England that destroyed a large part of the navy and killed up to 15,000 people. Were these products of global warming or is the weather occasionally a bit screwy?

To pick another bit of pre-industrial weather freakery, the 13th century saw an escalating series of super storms which culminated in the absolute obliteration of Old Winchelsea (Though it’s thought to now be beneath Rye Bay, nobody actually knows for certain, even though it was a town of several thousand people). The same series of “climate events” shifted the mouth of the Rother from Old Romney to Rye, and turned Old Romney from a thriving port into a landlocked town more or less overnight. (Take a gander at the map for the full import of this). Incidentally, to get into the church at Old Romney you have to descend five steps, because the church interior is at the pre-storm level.
Probably the newssheets of the time were busily suggesting that we stick up thousands of windemilles to prevent this sort of thing……:)

London is doomed – but not necessarily AGW – the London basin is sinking every year as the north of the UK rises.

London is sinking because of mass immigration to it. All the water and other resources taken out of the area are causing London to sink.
Its those Muslims Fault AGAIN.

“..there is a welcome new reluctance to accept the mere assertion as evidence in itself… I never thought I’d live to see the day when the Guardian told the BBC to stop cooking the books. But it happened.”

Despite all the scientific evidence, including the IPCC’s own report, the BBC arrogantly and shamelessly continues to plough the ‘extreme weather’ agenda of the far-left, mankind-hating environmental movement.
Just how do they get away with it?
