Marc Morano: Climate Change Misinformer Of The Year

ClimateDepot.com founder Marc Morano has been called "the Matt Drudge of climate denial," the "king of the skeptics," and "a central cell of the climate-denial machine," and he revels in these descriptions. Although he has no scientific expertise, he is adamant that manmade global warming is a "con job" based on "subprime science." Due to his history of smears and lies, Morano's media influence is usually confined to Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. But in December, CNN invited him to "debate" Bill Nye on climate science, and in doing so elevated his marginal views to the mainstream press for the first time all year. For all this, Marc Morano has earned the distinction of Media Matters' second annual Climate Change Misinformer of the Year. For more information, please visit:

"Lisa P. Jackson is stepping down as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency after a four-year tenure that began with high hopes of sweeping action to address climate change and other environmental ills but ended with a series of rear-guard actions to defend the agency against challenges from industry, Republicans in Congress and, at times, the Obama White House."* After being ignored and having her policies mostly tossed out in favor of conservative initiatives, Lisa Jackson is stepping down as head of the Environmental Protection Agency. How long will climate change be a low priority, and can anyone change that? Cenk Uygur breaks it down. *Read more from John M. Broder/ New York Times: www.nytimes.com

"Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), a skeptic of man-made global warming, is set to take over the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology in the 113th Congress. On Tuesday afternoon, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) announced that the Republican Steering Committee had recommended Smith as the new chairman. The full House GOP caucus will vote on all chairmanships Wednesday and is expected to ratify the steering panel's choices." We thought Ralph Hall would be the end of laughably inappropriate leaders chairing the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology. Wrong. Lamar Smith, a climate change denier is taking over. Do you think he's influenced by the money he received from Koch Industries and the oil and gas industries? *Read more from Amanda Terkel/ Huffington Post: www.huffingtonpost.com Support The Young Turks by Subscribing bit.ly Support The Young Turks by Shopping bit.ly Like Us on Facebook: www.fb.com Follow Us on Twitter: bit.ly Buy TYT Merch: theyoungturks.spreadshirt.com Find out how to watch The Young Turks on Current by clicking here: www.current.com

"Global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in 2011 rose 2.5 percent to 34 billion metric tons (37.48 billion tons) , a new record, Germany's renewable energy institute said on Tuesday. The IWR, which advises German ministries, cited recovered industrial activity after the end of the global economic crisis of recent years. "If the current trend is sustained, worldwide CO2 emissions will go up by another 20 percent to over 40 billion metric tons by 2020," IWR director Norbert Allnoch said. China led the table of emitters in 2011 with 8.9 billion metric tons, up from 8.3 billion a year earlier. Its CO2 output was 50 percent more than the 6 billion metric tons in the United States."* Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola (Host, TYT University), and Mark Thompson discuss the recent data on global warming.

"A world without pasta seems inconceivable. Mac-and-cheese-loving children across the United States would howl in protest. Italy might suffer a cultural heart attack. Social unrest could explode in northern China, where noodles are the main staple. But if humans want to keep eating pasta, we will have to take much more aggressive action against global warming. Pasta is made from wheat, and a large, growing body of scientific studies and real-world observations suggest that wheat will be hit especially hard as temperatures rise and storms and drought intensify in the years ahead."* Durum wheat, the high-protein wheat used to make pasta, may go extinct due to global warming.

Climate Change Studies: Less than 1% Reject Global Warming

Updated: 30 Dec 2012

"I was thinking of writing a lengthy post about climate change denial being completely unscientific nonsense, but then geochemist and National Science Board member James Lawrence Powell wrote a post that is basically a slam-dunk of debunking. His premise was simple: If global warming isn't real and there's an actual scientific debate about it, that should be reflected in the scientific journals. He looked up how many peer-reviewed scientific papers were published in professional journals about global warming, and compared the ones supporting the idea that we're heating up compared to those that don't. What did he find?"* Climate change deniers don't have any real scientific footing. A study of peer-reviewed climate articles published for a span longer than a decade revealed that fewer than 1% rejected the idea of global warming on a scientific basis. Then why are both sides given equal media coverage?

74 people are dead and the stock market was closed for 2 days from a storm that is probably because of climate change meaning it could have been prevented. The economic recovery may actually slow down because of this storm and oil companies and Republicans don't want to do anything about it. Investing money in renewable energy can actually save our economy one day and the planet instead of buying oil from the Middle East but no, it would be too much hard work for the oil companies and Republicans.

Lord Monckton Exposes Globalist Masquerading as Earth Savers at UN Climate Summit

Alex also talks with global warming skeptic Lord Christopher Monckton about his eviction from a United Nations climate change summit taking place in Qatar on Thursday. After the news conference, and as diplomats gathered for the climate conference president's assessment of how close countries are to agreement, Monckton quietly slipped into the seat reserved for the delegation of Myanmar and clicked the button to speak. A dvertisement "In the 16 years we have been coming to these conferences, there has been no global warming," Monckton said as confused murmurs filled the hall and then turned into a chorus of boos. The stunt infuriated negotiators and activists here who gather every year to address what they believe is one of the world's top threats, the steady rise of man-made global warming. As Monckton was escorted from the hall and security officers stripped him of his UN credentials, several people noted that just a few hours earlier a group of young activists had been thrown out of the convention center and deported. Their crime: unfurling an unauthorized banner calling for the Qatari hosts to lead the negotiations to a strong conclusion. By late today, several activists attending the conference had posted calls to "deport Monckton" on their Twitter feeds. www.infowars.com CHECK OUT [INFOWARS THE MAGAZINE] Buy it as a Gift or Order one for Yourself. www.infowarsshop.com ProPur Water Filtration Receive 15% off with promo code WATER15 - Good Until Dec 10th www ...

The majority of people still think that caring about the environment is a "do gooder" thing to do. Save the polar bears. Save the trees. Save the beaches. What about save our grandchildren? Somehow we continue to hear about the Climate Crisis as if its threats are limited to forests and polar bears when in fact they extend to human rights. Poised to trigger wars over water, the drowning of island nations, the genocide of refugees, a collapse in the global economy, dramatic increases in hunger, natural disasters, poverty, disease, and other horrors beyond imagination, the Climate Crisis is a villain that we cannot afford to ignore any longer. Our biggest challenge is that most of our world remains uninspired to join in. I believe that we can be the heroes we've dreamt of being since we were little.

Associate Professor of City and Regional Planning, Brian Stone discusses his new book, The City and the Coming Climate: Climate Change in the Places We Live. This book is the first to explore the dramatic amplification of global warming underway in cities and the range of actions that individuals and governments can undertake to slow the pace of warming. A core thesis of the book is that the principal strategy currently advocated to mitigate climate change--the reduction of greenhouse gases--will not prove sufficient to measurably slow the rapid pace of warming in urban environments. Brian Stone explains the science of climate change in terms accessible to the nonscientist and with compelling anecdotes drawn from history and current events. The book is an ideal introduction to climate change and cities for students, policy makers, and anyone who wishes to gain insight into an issue critical to the future of our cities and the people who live in them. Presented on November 7, 2012 from 6:00 pm-7:30 pm in the Reinsch-Pierce Family Auditorium on the Georgia Tech campus. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Stone teaches in the areas of urban environmental planning, integrated land use and transportation planning, and planning history and theory.
