Top 20 Reasons To Leave Climate Blog Commenting Turned Off
1. Jay Lehr Ph.D.
Hydrologist turned Heartland Institute Science Director who speaks with great authority on the hockey stick fraud and global warming hoax, having been convicted and jailed for defrauding the EPA of $200,000 of the taxpayer's money.
A Simpsons fan whose WUWT? handle celebrates the segue of Sideshow Bob's younger brother from hydrologist to criminal mastermind, vividly recalling the career trajectory of Heartland Science Director Lehr.
3. Prof. Oliver K. Manuel
Cold fusion chemist whose theory that the sun is a ball of ironwas celebrated by Watts and the Heartland Institute until his arrest for child molestation.Labor Party supremo Jeremy Corbyn's less intelligent older brother. The global cooling prognosticator's more impressive publications include a magisterial Geographical Journal RGS survey of the size of the pebbles on Chesil Beach, and DIY instructions for a brine-filled barometer. He believes the sun causes earthquakes.
5. The Sky Dragons
Editorial Collective formed to praise the Lord for CO2 and deny the reality of atmospheric radiative equilibrium. Claes Johnson stirs the pseudoscience pot, while pseudo-lawyer John O’Sullivan touts the CD on Dominionist evangelical TV. Former acolytes include Watts.
Adiabat hobbyist whose denial of the greenhouse effect by eliding lapse rate data from Venus and Earth has been eclipsed by his theory that space aliens altered the shape of the Australian continent to make it resemble an upside-down sheepdog. You can't make these things up.
7. William Hunt Author of 'Global Warming Challenged, which enjoyed WUWT endorsement until Watts actually read it and discovered its claim that :
“Prior to the Little Ice Age, most of the areas where today’s core samples are taken, were not covered with ice. The ice that scientists have stated is hundreds of thousands of years old can be no more than a maximum of 650 years in age“
8. Doug Cotton
Monomaniac whose unique non-GHG-based warming theory other wannabe Newtons can peruse at Prinicipia Scientific International, which claims reconstructed Victorian lab gear proves CO2 isn't a greenhouse gas.

9. Dr. James Wanliss
In Resisting the Green Dragon: Dominion, Not Death the 'Christian physicist ...explores and corrects the religious and scientific errors of the radical Green movement'

10. Stefan “The Denier” Mikitch
Australian gulag survivor who denies the geochemical cycle of carbon on the grounds that methane must stay underground, because its molecular weight is greater than atomic nitrogen or oxygen. His 'METHANEGATE' website advocates imprisoning those who disagree.

11. Arno Arrack
Self published author of “What Warming?” His Forword to the book whines about rejection by Nature and Science while citing the good and great Trofim Lysenko in support of his work.
12. David Legates, Ph.D., Author of Putting Out the Dragon’s Fire on Global Warming. Appointed as Delaware State Climatologist at Gov. Pete DuPont's request.
13. Herman Alexander Pope
Retired NASA scientist turned epigrammatic bore:
When the Arctic is liquid, Earth is cooling
When the Arctic is ice, Earth is warming
This is the Thermostat of Earth
Shares Roy Spencer's view that excess CO2 in the atmosphere can't be from human activity.
14. Joachim Seifert
Barely intelligible eastern European crank whose secret theory of climate change may or may not relate to solar variations. If you really want to find out you must purchase his pamphlet in the original German from Amazon. ISBN number, 978-3-86805-604-4 $50 a pop.
15. Girma Orssengo
Obsessive programmer who endlessly reposts a single horizintal line graph that uses data scale compression to render the last 150 years of global warming invisible
16. Mike Haseler
Highly original Scottish author of the theory that photons are an elitist hoax: “Over time I realised that:
1. There is no need for the idea of a “photon”.
2. That none of the raw evidence requires “photons”.
3. That the wave-particle theory of light is anti-scientific "
1. There is no need for the idea of a “photon”.
2. That none of the raw evidence requires “photons”.
3. That the wave-particle theory of light is anti-scientific "
17. Professor Nicola Scafetta
Duke physicist who asks: “Does the Sun work as a nuclear fusion amplifier of planetary tidal forcing? ” No, Nicola, it really, really does not.
18. Bob Tisdale
Data analyst who thinks barometer variation explains ocean warming, but somehow can’t explain exactly how to the long-suffering referees of the A, B, C, D, E & F-list scientific journals that have serially rejected his submissions.
19. Myrrh
Antipodaen ridiculer of Climate-Philosophers in ye 3rd person:So first Myrrh is saying that the greenhouse gases water/carbon dioxide cool the Earth by taking away the heat from the surface of the Earth through the Water Cycle and it is this cycle which has been expunged from the AGW world to pretend that greenhouse gases warm the Earth... Hopefully a Poe.
20. Spartacusisfree (AKA mydogsgotnonose, AKA AlecM )
Engineer with sock puppet issues who claims that the radiative properties of CO2 don’t apply to the atmosphere:
“There is absolutely no experimental proof of any CO2…I became a ‘denier’ after I concluded there were 5 errors in IPCC physics.
I may be mad, bad and deluded, but I want a second option because I’m a scientist who believes no-one.”
Hat tip to Whut for surfacing half of these desparadoes in 2013 !
THE TITANIC PAUSE CRACK-UP
A MINOR DELINGPOLE MALFUNCTION
James Delingpole Paris premier of CLIMATE HUSTLE 7-12-2015 Bob Carter
By JAMES DELINGPOLE Breitbart 22 Jan 2016
Sick Green activists have been gloating over the death of Bob Carter, the heroic climate sceptic geologist who died of a heart attack earlier this week.

I come to bury Schneider not to praise him
By JAMES DELINGPOLE Daily Telegraph 21 July 2010
De mortuis nil nisi bonum? Yeah, yeah, whatever.
But why, pray, should one even try to find anything nice to say about the man who, more perhaps than any other, was responsible for steering the already pretty nebulous field of "climate science" into a branch of political activism so extreme that it might just as well have rechristened itself "climate Leninism"?
Yes, I'm talking about Stephen Schneider.
Stephen Schneider – who recently died of a heart attack,
Has Delingpole forgotten how loudly honest-to-gosh Leninists in the Kremlin denounced Schneider in 1986 for challenging Carl Sagan's "apocalyptic predictions" of 'nuclear winter'?
Schneider's Foreign Affairs article Nuclear Winter Reappraised sent Soviet Communist Party Chief Ideologist Boris Ponomare'ev into a snit by derailing his propaganda and dezinformatsia campaign against NATO deployment of tactical weapons in Europe.
