Casual Infamy;

Almost immediately after coming to office Abbott sacked Professor Tim Flannery from his $180,000-a-year part-time Chief Climate Commissioner position and dismantled the agency. A prelude to getting rid of the Carbon Tax. It’s now the turn of Flannery’s warmist buddies at the CSIRO to feel the axe.

Y2Kyoto: Planetary Fever Update

We have reached the 69th day of winter. It seems like the 6,669th. Pretty much the same nonsense is reprised day after day. Miserable, punishing, obnoxious, teeth-rattling, bone-numbing weather. Unmitigated, merciless, are-you-kidding-me cold.
New Yorkers cannot recall the last time they walked with their eyes trained forward, rather than watching for ice patches waiting to send them flying, which leaves them vulnerable to ice sliding off buildings from above. And in the evenings the snowplows screech past, drowning out the television in the middle of a Letterman cold joke.

Restoring Science To Its Rightful Place

Science Insider;

I talked to a public health official and asked him what’s the best way to anticipate where there might be higher than normal rates of vaccine noncompliance, and he said take a map and put a pin wherever there’s a Whole Foods. I sort of laughed, and he said, “No, really, I’m not joking.” It’s those communities with the Prius driving, composting, organic food-eating people.

More here: The communities where anti-vaxxers cluster are also among the most liberal.
It’s like there’s a pattern.
Lots more in this vein at Instapundit.

What Would We Do Without Peer Review?

Restoring science to its rightful place…

The GOP study researched the federal government’s peer review process for 13 different endangered species listings made by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) since July 2013 and found examples of a lack of transparency and consistency.
The agency, according to the report, sometimes employs peer reviewers who authored studies on the species they are reviewing. The GOP staff determined that the peer review process as currently employed by the FWS “relies on a network of scientists who, if nothing else, have a professional and academic interest in the outcome of the ESA listing decisions they are being asked to review.”
“In recruiting peer reviewers, the FWS appears to favor scientists whose views on a species are already well known rather than more independent scientists in other academic or professional fields who would be able to bring a fresh perspective to the science the FWS is citing to support its ESA listing decisions,” it said.

Burnaby Mountain Unmasked, Part II

The Canadian government has been sharing information about people who are arrested with the US Department of Homeland Security. If Suzuki (or Barlow, or Klein) were denied entry to the US, they’d potentially lose access to the US gravy train that’s been funding them. So, while Suzuki is willing to encourage other people to take this risk, he’s unwilling to do it himself…

A long, and detailed post. Grab a coffee.

J.J. McCullough;

As the preferred party of the fringe and alienated, the Green Party of Canada has had a long and complicated relationship with the Truther community.
On the one hand, among the deranged subcultures of the extreme left, Truthers represent a constituency who are organized, energetic, and (in their own way) politically informed - precisely the sort of highly-motivated go-getters any self-respecting kook party would want onside.
On the other hand, their preferred cause is undeniably toxic from a PR perspective, championing, as it does, stomping on the graves of the nearly 3,000 souls slaughtered in New York and Washington by absolving guilt from the fundamentalist sadists who have repeatedly claimed responsibility.
The Green’s preferred solution to this dilemma, it seems, is to utilize the gifts of Truthers so long as they remain quiet and unseen, while simultaneously engaging in high-profile purges of those whose prominence crosses that thin line separating asset from liability.
