The Times of London uses the recently released intelligence "dossier" from British intelligence (see September 24, 2002) to report that Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein has sent agents into Africa to find uranium for Iraqi nuclear weapons. The Times does not inform its readers that many British journalists were shown evidence contradicting the British intelligence claims (see September 24, 2002). It focuses on the dossier's claim that Iraqi "agents" have secretly visited several African countries in search of uranium. Thirteen African nations produce uranium to one extent or another. A Whitehall source tells The Times that while Hussein may have attempted to find African uranium, those alleged efforts were unsuccessful. "If Iraq had succeeded in buying uranium from Africa, the dossier would have said so," the source says. The Times reports that Iraq attempted to purchase uranium from, among other sources, the Democratic Republic of Congo, though at least part of that nation's uranium mines are currently under the control of troops from Zimbabwe. The dossier does not specify any other countries that may have been contacted by Iraq. The Times also repeats the dossier's claim that Iraq has biological and chemical weapons that can be launched against targets in as little as 45 minutes (see Late May 2003, August 16, 2003, December 7, 2003, January 27, 2004, and October 13, 2004), that Iraq is developing missiles with ranges of 600 miles (see January 9, 2003, January 16, 2003, February 27, 2003, March 7, 2003, and June 2004), and that Hussein may have given his son Qusay the power to order the use of those weapons. It also reports that the dossier specifically downplays suspected links between Iraq and radical Islamist groups such as al-Qaeda. Hussein has little sympathy for Islamist fundamentalists, The Times reports. [London Times, 9/25/2002]

In his weekly radio address, President Bush tells the nation: "The Iraqi regime possesses biological and chemical weapons, is rebuilding the facilities to make more, and, according to the British government, could launch a biological or chemical attack in as little as 45 minutes after the order is given. The regime has long-standing and continuing ties to terrorist groups, and there are al-Qaeda terrorists inside Iraq. This regime is seeking a nuclear bomb, and with fissile material could build one within a year." Many Americans are shocked and frightened by Bush's flat litany of assertions. What they do not know is that none of them are true. The CIA had reluctantly agreed to produce a National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) on Iraq less than three weeks before (see September 5, 2002); the result is an NIE packed with half-truths, exaggerations, and outright lies (see October 1, 2002). None of Bush's statements are supported by hard intelligence, and all will later be disproven. [White House, 9/28/2002; Center for Public Integrity, 1/23/2008] In 2007, author Craig Unger will write that the conflict seems to have gotten personal with Bush. "There's no doubt [Saddam Hussein's] hatred is mainly directed against us," Bush says during the address. "There's no doubt he can't stand us. After all, this is a guy that tried to kill my dad at one time." [Unger, 2007, pp. 264]

The single source for the controversial claim that Iraq could launch a strike with its weapons of mass destruction within 45 minutes (see September 28, 2002 and March 12, 2007) is identified as "Lieutenant Colonel al-Dabbagh," an Iraqi who has allegedly spied on Saddam Hussein's government for British and US intelligence for over seven years. Al-Dabbagh, who does not allow his first name to be used or his photograph taken, is interviewed in Baghdad by journalist and author Con Coughlin. Al-Dabbagh, identified as an adviser to the Iraqi Governing Council, is later revealed to be an Iraqi defector who was brought to US and British attention by Ahmed Chalabi's Iraqi National Congress. Coughlin is apparently unaware of this. He portrays al-Dabbagh as a heroic risk-taker, "not a man who is easily frightened," he writes. "[D]eath threats from Saddam's loyalists" do not deter him from "revealing details of the former Iraqi dictator's deployment of weapons of mass destruction"; his determination "remain[s] undiminished." WMD Remain Hidden - These selfsame loyalists are the reason why US forces cannot find the weapons of mass destruction, al-Dabbagh tells Coughlin. "Saddam's people are doing this all the time," he says. "That is why it is so difficult to find the weapons of mass destruction. I am sure the weapons are hidden in Iraq just like I see you now. I am concerned that the chemical and biological weapons are there." Al-Dabbagh says he is proud to risk his life in divulging Hussein's secrets: "If Saddam's people kill me for saying this, I do not mind. I have done my duty to my country and we have got rid of Saddam. And if the British government wants me to come to London to tell the truth about Saddam's secret weapons program, I am ready to help in any way I can." Claim '200 Percent Accurate' - The 45-minute claim is "200 percent accurate!" al-Dabbagh exclaims. "And forget 45 minutes. We could have fired them within half an hour." Is he the original source of the intelligence? Coughlin asks. Al-Dabbagh replies, "I am the one responsible for providing this information." A member of the Iraqi Governing Council, General A. J. M. Muhie, al-Dabbagh's supposed brother-in-law, confirms that al-Dabbagh is the sole source of the claim: "We only had one source for this information and that was Dabbagh," says the general. Fellow council member Iyad Allawi says he was the one who funnelled al-Dabbagh's reports to Western intelligence agencies. Muhie is the one who set up the meeting between Coughlin and al-Dabbagh. Plans to Use WMD against US Invading Forces - Al-Dabbagh tells a detailed story of how the weapons were to be deployed against the American invaders, saying that he and other officers were ordered to use specially designated four-wheel drive Isuzus and only to deploy them if Iraqi forces were in danger of being overrun. Al-Dabbagh and others were then to drive the Isuzus towards American troop emplacements and fire the weapons, presumably chemical and biological weapons tipping hand-held rockets. But the weapons were never deployed, al-Dabbagh claims, because the majority of Iraqi soldiers refused to fight against the Americans. "The West should thank God that the Iraqi army decided not to fight," he says. "If the army had fought for Saddam, and used these weapons, there would have been terrible consequences." Whatever became of those fearsome weapons, al-Dabbagh does not know. He believes they were hidden away by Hussein's Fedayeen loyalists. The weapons will be found, al-Dabbagh predicts, when Hussein is caught or killed: "Only when Saddam is captured will these people talk openly about these weapons. Then they will reveal where they are." [Sunday Telegraph, 12/7/2003] Claims Proven False - Weeks after Coughlin's interview, al-Dabbagh's claims will be proven entirely false, and both al-Dabbagh and Allawi will deny any responsibility for their claims (see January 27, 2004).

The lurid tale of Iraq's readiness to deploy WMD within 45 minutes, a claim used to great effect by both British and American officials to justify the war with Iraq (see September 28, 2002 and December 7, 2003), is shown to be false (see October 13, 2004)). Both the source, supposed Iraqi military official Lieutenant Colonel al-Dabbagh, and Iraqi government official Iyad Allawi, who turned over al-Dabbagh's raw intelligence to US and British agents, now say they bear no responsibility for the claims. Nick Theros, Allawi's Washington representative, says the information was raw intelligence from a single source: "We were passing it on in good faith. It was for the intelligence services to verify it." Middle East expert Juan Cole says that Allawi and al-Dabbagh "passed to British intelligence and to Con Coughlin at the Telegraph a series of patently false reports that bolstered the case for war against Iraq but which were wholly unfounded. (Coughlin is either gullible or disingenuous.)" [Newsweek, 1/12/2004; Juan Cole, 1/27/2004; Guardian, 1/27/2004] Theros now says al-Dabbagh's information was a "crock of sh_t," and adds, "Clearly we have not found WMD."

British Prime Minister Tony Blair formally admits that he was wrong to have claimed that Saddam Hussein could deploy weapons of mass destruction within 45 minutes of giving the order (see September 24, 2002 and September 24, 2002). Blair's Foreign Secretary, Jack Straw, reveals that MI6, the British intelligence agency, has formally withdrawn the claim, as well as other intelligence concerning Iraq's ability to produce biological weapons. The claim has been heavily refuted for well over a year (see Late May 2003 and August 16, 2003). Straw refuses to say that it was a mistake to overthrow the Saddam government, saying instead that "deciding to give Saddam Hussein the benefit of the doubt would have required a huge leap of faith.… I do not accept, even with hindsight, that we were wrong to act as we did." He notes that other governments, most notably the US government, were also convinced that Saddam had an array of WMD which could have been quickly deployed against targets in the region. Conservative MP Gary Streeter says the Blair administration owes the nation a "full apology": "Not an apology for the intelligence but an apology for the way that the intelligence was conveyed by the government to the country." [Age (Melbourne), 10/14/2004] Liberal Democrat Party leader Charles Kennedy accuses Blair of "avoiding answering" questions about the absence of Iraqi WMD. Liberal Democrat deputy leader Menzies Campbell says: "The withdrawal of the 45-minute claim drives a horse and cart through government credibility.… The building blocks of the government's case for military action are crumbling before our eyes."

According to a poll just released by Dartmouth professor Benjamin Valentino, 63 percent of self-identified Republicans still believe that Iraq under Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction when the US invaded in March 2003 (see March 19, 2003). Twenty-seven percent of self-identified independents and 15 percent of self-identified Democrats hold that view. The question was: "Do you believe that the following statement is true or not true? 'Iraq had weapons of mass destruction when the United States invaded in 2003.'" Reporter Dan Froomkin, commenting on the poll results, writes: "The Bush administration's insistence that the Iraqi government had weapons of mass destruction and might give them to terrorists was a key selling point in its campaign to take the country to war (see September 30, 2001, 2002-2003, July 30, 2002, August 26, 2002, September 4, 2002, September 8, 2002, September 8, 2002, September 12, 2002, September 12, 2002, October 7, 2002, December 12, 2002, January 2003, January 9, 2003, 9:01 pm January 28, 2003, February 5, 2003, February 8, 2003, March 16-19, 2003, March 21, 2003, March 22, 2003, March 22, 2003, March 23, 2003, March 24, 2003, March 30, 2003, Late March 2003 and After, April 10, 2003, April 20, 2003, Between April 20, 2003 and April 30, 2003, May 28, 2003, May 29, 2003, June 2003, June 1, 2003, June 3, 2003, June 9, 2003, June 11, 2003, July 31, 2003, September 14, 2003, January 22, 2004, and March 24, 2004). It turned out to be untrue.… There is no reality-based argument that Iraq actually had WMD, after extensive searches found none (see 2002-March 2003, 2002, Mid-January 2002, March 22, 2002, May 2002-September 2002, September 2002, Late September 2002, September 24, 2002, September 28, 2002, Before October 7, 2002, December 2002, End of December 2002, December 3, 2002, January 9, 2003, January 28-29, 2003, February 20, 2003, March 7, 2003, March 8, 2003, May 4, 2003, May 25, 2003, May 30, 2003, June 2003, Early June 2003-Mid-June 2003, Between June 3, 2003 and June 17, 2003, Mid-June 2003, Early July 2003, July 11, 2003, July 20, 2003, July 29, 2003, July 30, 2003, August 16, 2003, October 2, 2003, October 2003, November 2, 2003, December 2003, December 2003, December 17, 2003, Mid-January 2004, January 20, 2004, January 23, 2004, January 27, 2004, January 28, 2004, February 8, 2004, and July 9, 2004), but this is hardly the first time many Americans have been certain of something that simply wasn't true" (see May 14, 2003-May 18, 2003). The 65-question poll was conducted by YouGov from April 26 through May 2, 2012, and surveyed 1,056 respondents. It has a margin of error of plus/minus 3.18 percent.

Steven King still has was it takes, and here is a quartet of novellas and short stories that plumb the depths of depravity and unusual human experience. Much of his best work lies in the shorter formats, and these gripping tales guarantee shivers and shudders.
the following stories by one of the greatest writers of our age tells stories that are more real, and much more gritty than we are used to reading from him. They are bold, and at times hard to read due to the realness of the subject. almost everyone could go through what he has written. It is totally worth each page.
Returning to short stories (which I think are his best), King explores dark themes of betrayal, revenge, loss and love. These are menacing tales, not light happy reads. — Jackie T., Eden Prairie Library
Enjoyable collection of some ( relatively ) recent Stephen King short stories.
Great book, and amazing stories. Although "Big Driver" wasn't really my cup of tea I still enjoyed it. It fed both brutal revenge and it makes you want to read even more! Don't hesitate to read this book, it's awesome in details and of course it's Stephen King for crying out loud! Especially that first story, I watched the movie (WATCH IT) and I even read the story and it's so better in details than the movie. 1922 is a must read and so does the other mini-stories in this book! Happy reading
Very well written. Gripping stories.
Along with revenge, duality is a common theme of these stories.
Although i didn't find them quite as gruesome as others, i did find them interesting. My favorite was 1922, then, A Good Marriage, Big Driver, and Fair Extension.
"Full Dark, No Stars" is a dark collection of short stories and novellas from Stephen King. The theme that runs through these stories is revenge. When I read this book, I was reminded of DuMas' classic "The Count of Monte Cristo." As in Dumas' book, readers are taken on twisty rides through the ups and downs of an act off revenge. I don't want to give too much away on plot, so just will comment on the stories:
"1922" is a wonderfully atmospheric tale set on a Nebraska farm in the years just before the Great Depression. I was instantly transported back into time and found the narrator, Wilfred, to be fairly intriguing, especially given the task he takes on, and its disastrous results.
"Big Driver" was probably one of the grittiest, most uncomfortable King stories I've read in awhile. I almost felt the need to put it down and step away, but I pushed through and was rewarded with a tale of one women taking herself back after a horrific event threatens to rip her apart forever.
"Fair Extension" is the shortest story in the book, and for me was probably the most disturbing of all. What would you do if you could guarantee you could have a wonderful life, with the cost only being that the pains and sadness you would have faced are put onto someone else? Would you take that opportunity at the cost of someone else's happiness?
"A Good Marriage" explores the horrors that can arise when you accidentally stumble across someone's deepest, darkest secret. Like most of King's stories, it's full of the dark, introspection that his characters so often face. I found this story hard to step away from, and although it didn't exactly surprise me with its resolution, I thought it fit in well with the theme of revenge.
In an afterword, King writes that he really isn't into being considered "literary"--that he would rather his readers think about the stories after the fact, rather than while they're in the midst of them. I guess that I'm that type of a reader--I don't like to have to think too deeply when I'm reading. Just get to the story. But I do enjoy pondering it all in the end--turning over the ideas I've just read and asking questions. This book certainly did that for me.
I absolutely loved the stories in this book. It's a darker King. Maybe some influence of Straub in the first story. Big Driver was the best of them.

CHARLES McCOLLESTER
McCollester, author of The Point of Pittsburgh: Production and Struggle at the Forks of the Ohio, just wrote the piece "There are plenty of reasons to protest the G-20: The global economic system has deindustrialized America, despoiled the Earth and marginalized working people everywhere" for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
McCollester writes: "When the announcement was made in Washington that Pittsburgh would be the site of the G-20 summit, reporters laughed. Clearly, the significance of the city in the nation's history is poorly understood.
"There is something symbolic in the holding of this potentially watershed event in Pittsburgh at a moment when America's global leadership is being seriously challenged by rising Asian economic superpowers as well as by numerous political revolts in the hemisphere it once dominated. The industrial collapse of Pittsburgh and American manufacturing in the 1980s propelled the crushing trade imbalance and indebtedness of the United States vis-a-vis the rest of the world. In a sense the chickens are coming home to roost.
"The American global agenda in the triumphant capitalist expansion that followed the disintegration of the Soviet empire proved to be disastrous for the American working class, as well as for workers and the environment around the world. Free trade, privatization and deregulation pursued with varying degrees of ardor by both Republicans and Democrats over the past 30 years has concentrated wealth and increased the poverty of the majority of humanity by undermining local, traditional and indigenous economies — all while polluting and degrading the natural world at an extremely dangerous pace. God knows there are reasons enough to protest.
"The United States, the prime purveyor of this toxic cocktail of economic dogmas, has seen its productive capacity collapse, its governmental and individual debt obligations increase exponentially and its once muscular and productive economic engine reduced to an increasingly untenable global military presence. Our best defense is not endless foreign war, but a sustained reinvention of our economic life at home."
McCollester is a retired professor of industrial and labor relations at Indiana University of Pennsylvania.

The Jakarta Post
Tourism Minister Arief Yahya has announced that in an effort to boost tourist arrivals during the year-end holiday season, discounts of up to 50 percent would be offered to tourists visiting Bali.
"Discounts of between 40 to 50 percent will be offered," Arief said in Denpasar on Monday after attending a meeting with Bali tourism stakeholders.
The discount policy is part of an effort to boost tourist arrivals to Bali, particularly during the New Year's Eye festivities, after foreign and domestic tourists have shown reluctance to visit the resort island in light of the volcanic activity of Mount Agung.
The discounts would be given to both domestic and foreign tourists, said Arief, adding that the government allocated Rp 100 billion (US$7 million) to intensify the promotion of the Bali tourism industry.
This year, the government targeted 6 million foreign tourist arrivals to Bali, however Arief projected that figure would only reach 5.5 million because of the ongoing volcanic activity.
He said the number of tourist arrivals had reached 5 million as of October.
Next year, he added, the government targeted 7 million foreign tourist arrivals to Bali. (bbn)

The days and hours before the start day of many endeavors we self-sabotage by burying ourselves in the black hole of perfectionism, fear of failure and self-doubt. We talk ourselves out of our own dreams to be left with only the passage of time and no output of our dreams and desires. Ironically, the mind that allows us to dare to dream is the same mind that deters us from fulfilling those dreams. The last years, instead of starting this blog, I spent hours swimming in self-doubt, creating all types of excuses, and experiencing imposter syndrome rather than just starting.
So, what is different now? Well, I started having honest self-conversations regarding the reasons of my self-sabotage regarding blogging – the reasons were my fear of failure, my self-confidence, and my need to control outcomes. Thus far, my professional success has been built on my focus on gaining subject-matter knowledge, strategizing and planning my next moves – always looking ahead and not settling for less than my worth. In that avenue, I have mitigated the risk of failure by leveraging my academic education and professional certifications – and now experience is an add-on. Where there is knowledge, there is self-confidence. However, the success of blogging is a mix of people's appreciation of your work, displaying yourself and behind the scene effort. The lack of self-confidence stems from the showcasing and being center stage of my own play. A stage where both physical appearance and intelligence are essential to success.
After many affirmations and pro/con lists, I decided to stop postponing the start; and identified blogging as an opportunity to gain self-confidence, to release control and to face the possibility of failures. Therefore, what if I fail, but what if I succeed, how great would that be! Moreover, even if I failed, better to have a story to share than none. As a result, emerged the creation of this blog with the objective to inspire women to discover their confidence, boldness, and courage to become a kick-ass empowered woman, by sharing experiences, affirmations, and visuals with a little sense of humor.

Under both contracts, worth more than €27 million ($30.2 million), Hensoldt will deliver four TRS-3D radars including the latest solid-state technology and signal processing software. These will be delivered from 2021, in parallel to the building program of the new Arctic Coast Guard vessels. The TRS-3D includes a secondary radar MSSR 2000 I for Identification-friend-or-foe (IFF). It operates all current IFF modes, including the latest "Mode S/Mode 5 Level 1/2" standard, answering the most recent NATO requirements.
"Our TRS-3D naval radar is an extremely reliable radar, particularly suited for littoral missions," said HENSOLDT-CEO Thomas Müller. "We are taking the upgrade contract of the Norwegian Coast Guard as proof of the customer's satisfaction with our product and services."
TRS-3D is a three-dimensional multimode naval radar for air and sea surveillance. It includes the ability to correlate plots and tracks of targets with the MSSR 2000 I identification system for automatic identification of vessels and aircraft which is essential to avoid friendly fire and to establish a comprehensive situation picture. It is used for automatically locating and tracking all types of air and sea targets and safe guidance of on-board helicopters. Thanks to its signal processing technologies, the TRS-3D is particularly suited for the early detection of low flying or slow moving objects under extreme environmental conditions.
More than 50 units of the radar are in operation with naval forces around the world. Among the ships equipped are frigates and corvettes of the German Navy, the US Coast Guard National Security Cutters and the "Squadron 2000" patrol boats of the Finnish Navy.

Better yet if Cliff could comment on the advisability of any rank layman - such as myself or practically any follower of this blog - in considering the narrative of logic presented by anyone who is only "a member of the scientific community" in forming a judgement on those conclusions.

This fundamentally is the problem. What Analog says, the facts he / she claims are true and the inferences he / she makes sound perfectly plausible to anyone who lacks competency. If Cliff Mass said exactly the same words and sentences, would we trust that any differently? If the statements were qualified as coming from a "member of the drywall installers community" would that make a difference? If Analog never mentioned his professional status at all, would that matter?

The truth is that while most people do attached some credibility by way of status, we mostly judge validity by the simple metric of does it all sound plausible to us. The story told has to make coherent sense to us, sort of like following the logic of 1 plus 6 minus 3 = 4. If it adds up, it must be right. The fact that we ourselves are incompetent in the actual task is generally not considered (no, there is more to simple addition in climate science)

 Try it sometime. When we read Analogues stories of logic, we do analyze it and we do judge it by how it "makes sense". When he says that "human CO2 contribution to the greenhouse effect is less than one tenth of one percent." We think "Gee, that doesn't sound like anything!" Our common sense says so. Our common sense agrees with most everything he says, but then climate science is hardly a common problem....is it?

Never once do we think "Wait a minute. How do I know if that is a lot or not?" This incidentally is the time honoured method of any act of fraud. Somehow arrange some mechanism of trust (" I'm an expert" will do) then tell a story that anyone can make sense of. Once the rube is convinced the story is coherently plausible, the hook is set.

Sometimes we set the hook right in our own mouth. This is known as the Dunning Kruger effect, which is most insidiously practiced when we think we are skilled far more than is proven. I'd be surprised if any actual professional scientist tasked with predicting uncertainties is not at all familiar and deliberately cautious of the Dunning Kruger effect.

Are you familiar with the dunning Kruger effect analog?Bruce Kayhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-29609889300611024722017-06-13T09:10:05.032-07:002017-06-13T09:10:05.032-07:00Anthropogenic global warming advocates believe tha...Anthropogenic global warming advocates believe that CO2 produced by man is its primary cause, but CO2 from all sources comprises less than two percent of the greenhouse effect while water vapor accounts for well over ninety percent. Thus, any impact that CO2 may have on the warming of the earth is relatively insignificant. Furthermore man-made CO2 accounts for only four percent of the total CO2 amount, which implies that the human CO2 contribution to the greenhouse effect is less than one tenth of one percent.

If global temperatures are driven primarily by solar output as many scientists believe, then based on long term sun spot cycles, we could likely be headed for a mini ice-age this century. It could well be that "global warming" is more about globalism and political agenda than actual science.

So many in the debate have abandoned science for politics, feelings, fear and callus, hypocritical profiteering (Al Gore immediately comes to mind). Serious voices on both sides should welcome synergistic debate, transparent data sharing and open peer review. Resorting to ridicule, shaming or shunning of peers has no place in legitimate science.

In most areas of science we have the luxury of being able to verify theory through repeated controlled experiment, but this is generally not possible in climate science. Thus, many in the field resort to heavy reliance on computer modeling (as a long time successful user and proponent of computer modeling, I can tell you that old saw "garbage in - garbage out" very much applies).

With the major exception of nuclear energy almost all energy sources derive from the sun regardless of whether carbon is involved (coal and oil are solar "batteries" of stored solar energy).

Everyone wants clean air and there is no question that unscrubbed burning of carbon compounds injects many noxious "piggyback" substances into the atmosphere and environment, but given the fact that CO2 levels have varied naturally over wide levels over millennia, does science really support the conclusion that increasing levels pure CO2 is a danger to mankind? Volcanic and other sources of CO2 have historically dwarfed that produced by man. And how can we focus exclusively on human generated CO2 while virtually ignoring other factors such as variations in solar output and changes in the patterns of ocean currents?

As a member of the scientific community working in the solar industry, the near hysteria and politically charged emotionalism over human generated CO2 goes against all my training and automatically raises a YUGE red flag of skepticism. Cliff Mass is 100 percent right that these are completely counterproductive to true science.analoghttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-15105261092987333392017-06-09T22:45:47.572-07:002017-06-09T22:45:47.572-07:00If memory serves me right, Hansen called the PA &q...If memory serves me right, Hansen called the PA "a fraud and a fake".

The question is if you do, certainly in the context of giving voluntarily when need is high and your wealth is thick. The Paris accord was a voluntary agreement among nearly every participating nation, rich and poor. They all volunteered to cooperate, coordinate and contribute as a function of their ability. As we speak, China and India are despite great poverty and highly strained social structure, taking significant risk and cost to transition away from fossil fuels. Proportionally, most European countries have spent the past decade doing similar. You don't hear them whining about the pains of volunteerism.

For the most powerful, wealthy and privileged nation to step away from such a voluntary action, after spending the last century burning fossil fuels the most and still to this day maintaining one of the highest per capita carbon foot prints, is as I said a voluntary willful act that can only be characterized as immoral. But like I said with my analogy of how you selectively chose to redistribute wealth at home, perhaps your idea of morality is a bit more parochial. If it's your tribe it's called a virtue, when they are born on the wrong side of tracks, they need to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. This is not how American's behaved during the second world war but as we are constantly reminded, that was perhaps Americas last great generation.

This is the legacy America is staking out for itself with Trump and his pathetically transparent "America First!" We know what his essential character is. The only remaining question is to what extent he represents the whole nation.Bruce Kayhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-10285750424871459942017-06-09T13:05:17.670-07:002017-06-09T13:05:17.670-07:00Bruce you obviously don't understand the diffe...Bruce you obviously don't understand the difference between voluntary and involuntary.

Many scientists suggest that we have reached point of no return, where drastic, almost cataclysmic changes in human behavior would be needed to stabilize global temperatures and climate. Most people in the western world will not willingly do that. Behavior changes will need to start now, from industrial revert-olution, for instance why build cars that can go 150mph? why not build more efficient engines that g0 70mph? After all everywhere you go there's a speed limit of 60 to 75mph.
Agricultural behavior will need to start changing where more local or in-home agriculture and farming is encouraged. Why do we need to have millions of square miles of cattle ranches? So we will need to have an Industrial revertolution where everything is done at a scale of just of a fraction of what is now.

Everybody needs to forget about the politics, reach out to the other side, reach out to people that disagree. Example commands leadership.

We are trying our little part at home, beginning with learning farming techniques, biking to work and/or using public transportation. Eating less meat or eating less in general, reduce spending, not replace but fix.

Huh? A non binding aspirational agreement is a "bad deal"? OK I get it - the USA and other fat cat nations, all of us dripping with opportunity, wealth and privilege, are expected to contribute to a fund designed to help developing nations (by any measure not at all dripping with wealth, opportunity and privilege) to do their own shift toward a lower carbon economy. This, in the words of Trump, is called a unbearable burden on the USA or in dog whistle language to the Shining city on the hill crowd, an unearned "redistribution of wealth". There is no contractual binding enforcement but to refuse, while dripping with wealth is to some minds, coercive. It is persuasive, not coercive.

Forgetting for a moment where all that American wealth actually came from (dirt cheap energy and other resources flowing like honey straight from the third world), there is a very simple principle required to agree with this notion of a "bad deal". What we now own we will never give up for any reason, particularly any reason beyond the hallowed borders of the greatest nation on earth. America is an island and to hell with the rest. The second world war sure didn't play out under that attitude.

The greatest crime that Al Gore committed in his infamous movie was to state these words:

"Climate change is a moral problem".

 He had the nerve to point out the obvious, a major fau pass in America where myth is sacred. I don't recall him ever saying that it is only some peoples moral problem or that moral problem can be turned off like a light switch. In fact I do recall him saying that we are all complicit and to each one's ability, we all need to adjust. Not just America but the whole damn planet. That will require taking small risks to mitigate the larger risk, systemically and proportional to ones vulnerability.

Any action that the USA takes to move away from fossil fuels will involve low vulnerability, simply by way of its enormous wealth. What vulnerability exists to a very few individuals can certainly be adjusted for by way of what you sneeringly call "wealth redistribution". On the one hand you applaud any family that funds their children post secondary education ( a gross redistribution of wealth to the most vulnerable) while at the same time defund health care and public education on the wrong side of the tracks (correcting that evil redistribution of wealth to those who don't earn it) At some point you need to acknowledge the obvious, as Gore did:

American morality is only applied to your tribe and to hell with the rest ( but give us your oil anyway)

Here is another BIG example of how mislead so many of you really are. I'm guessing now that Trump has pulled us out of this agreement and made it known that he does not intend to spend billions on climate change, we will now see more whistleblowers come forward and end this debate.

Also, I'm guessing that Trump's climate policies will also open the door to new studies that have been covered up due to the previous administration's anti-science climate public relations(propaganda). For instance; look at all of the peer-reviewed papers coming out about the REAL DRIVER of the CLIMATE...... The SUN.

For decades, I've chosen mostly smaller cars to drive, which are more fuel efficient. We've changed from incandescent to LED lights through most of our home. We have a relatively energy efficient home. We no longer use charcoal for grilling, as you end up with wasted energy in the form of coals that take an hour or more to die out.
None of these are tremendously big steps, but all have a cumulative effect of reducing carbon emissions.
Here's something to think about: unless you have solar cells with power storage to power your electric car, it's essentially running on coal. The same goes with light rail trains. And another question (to which I don't know the answer), are all these electric motors designed not to create ozone?
Think about the cell phone you use. Such computing power used to require a room full of technology that ate up electricity at a huge rate. Even twenty years ago, that much computer power required a room full of PC's. Now, it's run off a small battery.

You decry partisanship but only criticize progressive news stories when they go askew and not conservative news stories when they advance junk science. You justify your one-sided critiques with the incorrect reasoning that American news does not confront Environmental hyperbole. I guess you don't read or watch alt-right news: FOX, Drudge, Breitbart... Fox has been the number one cable news service for years. Several key climate change scientists have received anonymous death threats, public verbal abuse and political intimidated by certain extremist Republican politicians and their appointees. Many moderate Republicans have been replaced by extremists.

You don't counter political extremism with silence. Silence is consent. Silence did not end slavery or Jim Crow. Silence did not stop Hitler or Communism. Good people must speak out against extremism.

I voted against Nixon (supported HHH) but I went to the southeast Asian war and served my country. I never had to worry that my president, even Nixon, was aligned with our enemies until now!

President Trump is worrisome. He laughs with our enemies and is contemptuous of our allies. He speaks and writes obvious untruths. He does not know history but listens to conspiracy theorists. It is hurricane season, can you name the Director of the National Hurricane Center? It's vacant! It is President Trump's responsibility to name a new NHC director. Instead, he tweets rubbish.

If we don't stand-up to such madness it will spread across our land. We will lose our democracy, our freedom and our moral compass.

Moderate Republicans shoulder much of the blame for the current madness in our politics. They were SILENT about the extremists within their party. Moderate Republicans allowed the Tea Party extremists and Trump to seize control of the GOP. They did not confront racism. Instead, they gerrymandered and legislated to marginalize African American voters, Democrats and progressives. Their strategy worked. Republicans control all the levers of political power.

You do not end madness with silence.

The primary sentiment behind Trump pulling out of a non binding agreement is an unwillingness to take the slightest risk or assume the slightest cost to upset our comfortable status quo for some nebulous future abstraction of risk. This is not entirely a Trump phenomena either.

British Columbia is potentially the Saudi Arabia of hydro electric resources. Hydro electricity is by far the best proven and cheapest low GHG electricity producer, far more reliable than solar or wind and a perfect fit to displace coal fired power right next door in Alberta. This is so obvious yet you will not find one single BC based eco activist advocating for even one little run of river project. They will not take the slightest risk or assume the slightest cost against their primary values (wilderness preservation / anti corporatism) in order to mitigate the one risk they scream the loudest about. Like Trump and the right wingers, they also have a long list or plausible reasons that these risks and costs are unacceptable but in all cases, the central guiding principle is that the future abstract risk is less than their immediate and more salient values.

This is known as Loss Aversion, which all humans generally are subject to and will suffer from, adversely skewing our risk calculations to favour circling the wagons around assets we hold or even simply imagine that we might hold, by discounting future risk.

For the right wingers our loss aversion consists of preserving our first world entitlements and how we imagine they are sustained. The eco kooks don't want to lose all the pretty views, fish, deer and seal pups that constitute "wilderness" forgetting for the moment that they are as complicit as any by simply requiring the lights to go on whenever we flick a light switch.

Both consider climate change to be comparatively a lesser risk, despite the fact that they themselves are unskilled and most any skilled assessment suggests the opposite. In all cases how we feel is what is important, and by and large our feelings are dominated by the irrationality of loss aversion.

Incidentally, loss aversion is the primary reason why most people do not save enough for their retirement years, despite deliberately planning to retire. People value their immediate values by discounting their future needs. Play now.....pay later.

The "never let a crisis go to waste" Left in our country has hyper politicized climate just like everything else and has only themselves to blame now that so many view their shrill calls to action as not credible. Couple that with their sycophant media partners and their "if it bleeds it leads" voracious appetite for scary stories and storm news coverage and you have a perfect "Little Boy Who Cried Wold" fairy tale.

The two things we could do to move the needle on CO2 emissions are:
1) Educate more on the dangers of animal consumption. Humans are naturally herbivores and most credible science shows we don't need the vast majority of the meat and dairy that we consume. If we lessened the methane and CO2 from the meat and dairy industry that would do much more than worrying about auto emissions. Read more in the excellent book "Meatonomics by David Robinson Simon" or watch the documentaries "Forks Over Knives" and "The Blue Zones" to see why health and longevity are directly correlated with less animal consumption. (Pro Tip: Learning about this might actually save your life, unlike worrying about Donald Trump pulling out of the Paris accord since the vast majority of Americans die needlessly from heart disease and cancer, both entirely avoidable diseases.) We would also save vast amounts of fresh water and vast amounts of diesel fuel not needed to feed three or four giant animal populations instead of just one human animal population.

2) Focus subsidy instead on a "space race" like effort for turning Thorium nuclear in to our primary energy source. This would let us eat up the waste we have created from the Gen1 and Gen2 heavy water reactors, produce energy so abundant it would be as cheap as water, provide an abundance of clean fresh water to the world for agriculture and second and third world countries, and allow us to more fully exploit electric cars and other technologies that are just as limited now by carbon energy sources as anything else, but masked by their much smaller adoption than carbon fueled vehicles.

No one, and especially not the glamorous hypocrites like Al Gore who jet around with their lavish lifestyles, is going to be the first one to volunteer to shut off their own lights and live in the cold for some elusive 50 years hence climate model that has not predicted the last 20 years accurately.

So stop the ridiculous hysteria and focus on concrete technology solutions.JeffBhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-181550704867697972017-06-05T15:09:41.527-07:002017-06-05T15:09:41.527-07:00I hope you know my respect for you (which was alre...I hope you know my respect for you (which was already pretty high) has tripled with this post. Bravo sir, bravo!

Calling it right down the middle is exactly how this topic should be dealt with. Thanks for once again doing just that, Cliff :)Joey DiJuliohttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-61476514812126543372017-06-05T11:20:32.300-07:002017-06-05T11:20:32.300-07:00I do wish people (scientists, politicians, everyon...I do wish people (scientists, politicians, everyone) would talk about overpopulation more though. To me it is the real problem. It went out of vogue with the 1970's, and people accept population growth fatalistically, a fact which I do not like.

A lower world population would have less impact on all fronts: Less extinctions, more rainforest preservation, less agricultural pollution from pesticides, less air pollution, less coal mining, less global warming, less nighttime light pollution, less over-fishing, less
quota permits needed to regulate usage in national parks, less... shall I go on???

Of course, how we accomplish that fairly, that is the $64,000 question.Anselhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com
