Such broadcass are all very well, but how will it get the message across to the person-in-the-street ?
I mean a single issue radio station – Who will be listening ?
Great for preaching to the converted & rallying the troops, but how does it reach the people who need to understand , the mass of voters who can make a difference ?
10
Joe(#5)…
As long as the “person-in-the-street” can understand the technology of how to access these interviews, I would hope that they may attract not just the choir and the troops, but also those who have heard on the grapevine that the mainstream media’s presentation may be off-beam, and may see this as an opportunity to introduce themselves to broader perspective. Could be?
10
Colin(#3)…
If you go to their website, you will see that the answer appears to be “yes”.
10
Cooling Radio – cool idea!
I’m looking forward to it.
10
Joe –Its a different approach. Someones got to start somewhere because the MSM is not doing much. Good on them for having a go at it. With modern technology you never know have fast it will catch on –ie. maybe faster than we think.
10
Steve, Ross, please excuse my ignorance (no defense, I know).
How could I have forgotten.
It’s the inter-web “thingy” that’s going to make the difference, because these broadcasts can be accessed and replayed at will.
Was it not an excerpt from one of LM’s very own lectures in Canada, going viral on You Tube that brought us to where we are today.
Not to mention how it’s disturbing the Greenies too :-
Internet, Monckton-Style Deniers Changing the Game, Report Says

Bjorn Lomborg gives Earth Hour a slap upside the head at The Australian:

Bjorn is so chock full of common sense it is scary. I am surprised he isn’t on the Radio talk show roster.
10
Algore must regret inventing the internet. It has so much coverage of his false claims.

“I am surprised he isn’t on the Radio talk show roster.”
if you click on the Climate Theatre tab you’ll see he appears to be listed as is Jennifer Marohasy

Joe Veragio @10,
Greenpeace is raving about deniers again? I’m shocked to the core about it! What could they possibly have to complain about?
Actually I wonder how they expected that no one would oppose them for the last 20 years. It’s particularly comical that they name Singer as a “serial denier” without bothering to define what that term even means. I wonder what kind of Cereal he denies. Could it be Cheerios or maybe corn flakes? Oh, I know, I’ll bet its oatmeal!
Well, bad pun. But Greenpeace deserves every bit of mocking they can get. The only thing they know about climate science is how to spell those two words.
Long live the “serial deniers”, whatever that may mean. If it tics off Greenpeace it must be good.
10
Maybe Greenpeace is trying to draw people’s attention away from their OWN DONATION SCAM!!
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10634412
10
Good grief! There are 60,000 people in New Zealand making regular donations to Greenpeace? That’s 1.5% of the entire population. Outrageous. Well, I’m proud to say that I don’t know any of them (as far as I know!).
10
janama @15,
Could this quote from your Greenpeace link possibly say something about the problem?
But this kind of thing has been going on for years now. If I buy antivirus software or other applications with a regular update service they all want to automatically renew my update subscription every year. And they just set it up that way then tell me about it and, oh yes, as an afterthought, if you don’t like it you can jump through this hoop to get it cancelled. It’s not ethical and it’s a lazy business practice. Only one company earned the right to use my credit card for their monthly service charge and that’s because they told me ahead of doing it that it was their preferred method of payment.
10
Roy,
Automatic renewal is one thing, and I’m sure you have a good point there. But in this case it’s automatically increasing a donation amount, with the onus on the donor to notify if they don’t want the increase. I think this is in a differenct category than a service renewal.
10
Well, it looks like the UN is getting ready for another media ‘scare’ onslaught. More of the same old drivel we had prior to ‘Climate Gate’.

For island substitute sandbar but that wouldn’t earthshaking news would it.
10
1) Anyone know exactly how many hrs behind Sydney central DST is?
2) Whales and Chagos Islands etc deserve my funding but when it came to cancelling my subscription to Greenpeace it took several goes. In Au they have duplicate offices so one has to cancel at both (but they didn’t tell me that). They were clearly not interested in hearing my concerns about their climate position.
The folks I dealt with reminded me of the fanatics I blockaded the Franklin R with back in ’82. Great kids but professional demonstrators against anything that was going down.

Roy @ #14:
🙂
Nice one Roy. That had me choking on my coffee – (the bit that didn’t get spilled).
10
Acording to this report, it’s the Internet itself that’s causing GW:
Cloud computing and its contribution to climate change
or is it all those computer models that are doing it ?
10
I am not getting the blogtalk radio, all that is playing is an endless blogtalk introduction. Is anyone else getting the program?
10
Seeing how the AGW community is acting as if they have succeeded in denying they have any problems, I can only think that sweet poetic justice would see a nice fat file of GISS or Manniac internal documents leaked out in the week or two.
And before our conspiracy theory whack job AGW true believers think I am in on it: Nope. Only wish I was.
By the way, this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True-believer_syndrome
describes to a ‘T’ how AGW true believers overcome the cognitive dissonance of the evidence of fraud and bad data conflicting with their faith.
AGW is going to boil down to the first internet age popular delusion. Fortunately, so far, its main costs have been opportunity, not direct.
We may get lucky and have it disassemble before too much damage is done.
10
The interview is available by clicking on the global cooling radio page, and then clicking under the Monckton Banner.
“Were you surprised about the Phil Jones inquiry?”
Monckton: “Not at all. Remember Parliamentary Inquiries are set up to exonerate Parliament…”
10
Wouldn’t they rather be the crowd that advocated giving over large tracts of cereal producing land to bio-fuels production, only now they’re not sure it was such a good idea. Green peas, again:-
Biofuels: green dream or climate change nightmare?

It’s about 25C here in Ottawa. Just wonderful, my golf course opened today a record earliest, lots of moisture in the ground and rain coming early next week. Can’t remember a better Easter. Bye the bye the artic ice is back to normal but that is “weather” as carefully pointed out by Environment Canada. Just 1400 klicks west it’s cold and snowy. Anybody want to guess which thermostat will be used in the next IPCC report? Looking forward to the online talks.
10
Steve @18,
My only point was that the practice of setting up automatic renewal without asking first is quite wide spread as well as with your example where people chose automatic withdrawal and then were surprised at a big price increase. I apologize if it seemed to minimize your complaint. But in both cases I am not at all in agreement with it.
I think the two are just opposite sides of the same coin and it’s a coin we don’t need hanging around our necks when we do business with any company or organization.
10
Joe,
Sorry for the spilled coffee. I didn’t think the pun was all that funny but I wanted to mock Greenpeace a bit and that was all that came to mind. It’s just a little too arrogant to act like no one has the right to oppose them.
10
Joe @27,
That link is very interesting. Greenpeace is in a snit over biofuels? How awful! I guess foolishness does catch up with its practitioners now and then.
Actually I hope they succeed since I agree with them on this one. It’s absolutely stupid to turn good food crop land over to growing corn for ethanol, much less destroying untouched land to do it. It does nothing to help air pollution or global warming.
10
Roy @ #31:
No bother,Roy. It was the choice of Cheerios… Inspired. I still cann’t read it without creasing. 😉
10
Joe,
I’m at a loss here. Help me out. I can’t imagine what’s inspired about Cheerios.
10
Roy, It’s your instinct for comic one-liners.

Joe,
My wife would probably tell you that my puns in particular are terrible and she’d rather have her teeth pulled than be subjected to them. But somehow I can’t resist them. And life goes a lot easier if I keep my sense of humor.
In any case I’m glad you got a good laugh out of cereal denier. And thanks for the complement.

Louis, there was more to that disturbing quote:
Sounds like Farnish to me…….
ref. http://www.webcitation.org/5oj86Zw5q
10
Mark,
The mostr disturbing thing is that they actually believe in it. Now THAT is the problem.
But taken in conjunction with the Demcocrats stated goal of turning the US into a Europe style welfare state, will the Greenpeace outlaws be used against the political opponents, or the “sceptics”. The Greens here are quite ruthless.
This could turn out uglier than many of us anticipate.
10
Can you remember this exchange on the “Esquire does the full Marc Morano and ClimateGate feature”
MattB:
April 1st, 2010 at 2:01 pm
I didn’t realise we were arguing Mark D? I was just giving you some first hand understanding. There is no-one I’ve met on the climate blogosphere that I would not similarly be happy to enjoy a beer with.
Mark D.:
April 1st, 2010 at 2:10 pm
Sorry Matt, I am not argueing (I didn’t look at your links) not because I can’t take it but because there is beer in front of me. Yes I can be bought but it takes better beer than Fosters….
Now on Climate Depot I find the following in a piece on Joe Bastardi.
“I happen to like Dr. Mann,” said Bastardi. “I’ve read a lot of his stuff, and this is a brilliant man.” Said Mann, “I have great respect for Joe Bastardi, and for AccuWeather.”
But while he and Bastardi remain friendly, they don’t agree on climate change, nor on how to settle their differences. Bastardi wants Mann to debate the heavyweights who disagree with him; Mann wants Bastardi to talk climate over a beer. (No date has been set.)
Will MattB: and Mark D please reveal themselves.
10
Louis & Mark d @ #38 & #39
It seems Lord Monckton’s celebrated exchange with Youth at Copenhagen may have been more prophetic than imagined.
But they’re only decent kids really, doing it for fun, and fired with endorphins from “believing” they’re saving the planet.
How can you can argue with that.
Better than abusing substances, to get their highs surely.
10
Louis @40
The Farnish types exist and that astounds me. How many are willing to commit crime is the question.
I have disagreed with the Democrats since I was in the 6th grade (elementary) when Nixon ran for president. Clearly radical leftists (US style) had significant control even then. The democrats have mastered the use of government welfare to cultivate votes. More fearsome to me is that we are losing the “Great Generation of WWII era. My parents are among them and are now in their eighties. This voting block is among the most sensible and wise. When they are gone we’ll have to do a lot of educating or the Left will be able to own Washington. I actually believe that Obama winning was not expected (it was a trial run). This means that not enough is in place to allow the socialist Left to really run away with things. He is too inexperienced and is making a lot of people angry. Politics ebbs and flows in sometimes surprising ways and I think we’ll see a rapid pendulum swing to the right this fall and for a while. (recall Regan after Carter). A little Green violence will (IMHO) help in this backlash. Where I live is predominately Labor Left. These people are the original Red Necks (mining and construction). Even though they typically vote Democrat they would never tolerate Green Sponsored violence.
A lot of Green (Farnish style) violence will cause the center and right to come unglued and that could mean the Greens will get their wish of reduced world population and a more permanent Right shift.

Bob Malloy @41
Bob, I was laughing when I first read this but then I think you might be serious. I will reveal that Mark is my real first name and D. is the first letter of my last name. I do not personally know in any way Joe Bastardi or Dr. Mann. (if that is what your concern is).
As for MattB, do not know him at all other than what you and I read here at Jo Nova. If what he says is true, he is an AU resident. Me I live in the Midwest of USA. Due to the distance I doubt MattB and I will ever talk over a pint (in the same pub at the same time).
It might help you to recall that in the early days of the formation of the USA, the Founding Fathers frequently met in pubs to discuss politics. The end result was brilliant. (IMHO) Therefore, I can see no harm in any two disagreeing factions talking over a pint(s) of good beer.
By the way if you wish I’ll extend that to include Wine, Cider, Mead, Whiskey, Gin, Vodka, Rum, Brandy, and a host of other favorites. (but you might be cautious and limit any of those to less than a pint at one sitting)
Mr. Malloy If this isn’t revealing enough please explain. I don’t recall you and I having any differences, did you feel left out?
10
So the kid gloves come off and the boxing gloves go on — or is it brass knuckles? Now it’s out in the open for all to see exactly what this group of arrogant miscreants stands for.
As for Democrats, let’s see what November brings.
And to Greenpeace: I don’t like to be threatened and neither do millions of other Americans. So go carefully.

Mark D.
No Mark just my attempt bad humor, even it was a poor effort
10
Mark D.
Just a personal apology if I have offended you in any way, While reading the article on Joe Bastardi, I remembered your exchange with MattB. The similarities stood out, so I made my post with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek. Sorry. Bye the way you wont find many aussies drinking fosters.
MattB if you also take offense my apology.
10
Bob Malloy, Thank you for the courtesy of an apology but do not fret. I am not offended in the least and as I said I did laugh at first. My apology to you for spoiling your fun! The Trolls of late have made me jumpy. Perhaps it was that dry (British style) delivery. 🙂
About Fosters; yes I have heard that it is exported because they don’t want to pay for proper disposal…..
I wouldn’t mind hearing what is the popular good brand so I can look for it here.
10
Roy, brass knuckles and Chicago style politics?
10
Mark D.
You’ve asked the wrong person to recommend what Australian beers you should try. Never been a big drinker, I do know here in the North Eastern states New South Wales and Queensland four X (XXXX),Victoria Bitter (VB) and Tooheys New are popular. Other states have their own favorites, Southwark & Coopers in South Australia, Cascade in Tasmania, Swan in West Australia etc.
I Know we are diverging from topic but check the link attached.

Bob Malloy says, “Other states have their own favorites […] Cascade in Tasmania.” By all the gods, no: Cascade in southern Tasmania; Boag’s in the north.
Boag’s is best.
10
Deadman:
I stand corrected. all I seem to be doing lately is apologising.
10
Bob – I always find it offensive when I’m asked to “reveal” myself – which I take to mean post naked pictures of myself on the internet. I’d wager you’d need to buy Mark D and myself a lot of beer before that happens.
If you can get your hands on some nice Western Australian boutique beers like Little Creatures (Pale Ale or Rogers) you’d be making a good choice. But I’m pretty sure you can’t if you are (I’m guessing) in the USA. The Rogers is a great brew.
10
AGREED! 🙂 🙁 🙂 🙁
MattB, If I only knew someone that would carefully box and ship me some of that great brew………..well insulated and with some dry ice…….shipped by air……ignoring all tax and export/import restrictions……if only I knew someone……

Joanne:
At #26 you report;
I rarely disagree with Christopher, but I do about this. And I think my disagreement is important because the Parliamentary Inquiry is the second such flawed enquiry: the first was by Penn State University.
I explain my understanding of the problem at

And I say there

It’s worse than that, it spells out in big letters to Joe Public that no one in authority is the slightest bit interested in cleaning things up. It shows how few of our leaders are willing to stand for a job done right, instead they stand for whatever is convenient this minute.
I predict a big vote for parties like BNP and UKIP in the coming UK election simply because so many citizens are sick and tired of being taken for granted by their leaders, and they are willing to take big risks just to see that they are treated with a tiny iota of respect. In essence voters are going to cry out for anyone different to what they have now, regardless of the consequences.
