16 Democrat AGs Begin Inquisition Against ?Climate Change Disbelievers? ? Liberal Logic 101
16 Democrat AGs Begin Inquisition Against ‘Climate Change Disbelievers’
Speaking at a press conference on March 29, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said, “The bottom line is simple: Climate change is real.” He went on to say that if companies are committing fraud by “lying” about the dangers of climate change, they will “pursue them to the fullest extent of the law.”
The coalition of 17 inquisitors are calling themselves “AGs United for Clean Power.” The coalition consists of 15 state attorneys general (California, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington State), as well as the attorneys general of the District of Columbia and the Virgin Islands. Sixteen of the seventeen members are Democrats, while the attorney general for the Virgin Islands, Claude Walker, is an independent.
General Schneiderman claimed that climate change dissenters are committing “fraud” and are not protected by the First Amendment.
This comes on top of U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch admitting that the Justice Department is discussing the possibility of pursing civil actions against climate change deniers, and that she has already “referred it to the FBI to consider whether or not it meets the criteria for which” federal law enforcement could take action.

Why I'm a climate skeptic-- and you should be, too
It's simple really. I'm a member of a group over-represented among skeptics: engineers. Why is it that people trained in data analysis and measurement methodology are so much less likely to subscribe to climate fear-mongering?
The entirety of the AGW case is built on climate modeling in a computer. It must be, because empirical measurement--that is, actual data-- does not support the AGW hypothesis. What sealed the deal for me was a project I had to do at work.
This task involved using finite element modeling to determine the stiffness of something bolted to the outside of the engine. Now, as FEA models go, this was pretty simple: 500k data elements, and had to have the confidence within 10% of 300 hz or so.
Analyzing this piece, I ended up making slight changes to the model. Changing the mesh size, adding increase the points to 600k, decrease to 400k, etc. I'm trying to determine how consistent is the output when the process varies.
I realized just how striking is the contrast between my FEA model and the advanced models used by climate "researchers." My model had half a million points and calibrated against actual data measured under lab conditions with sophisticated accelerometers.
A climate model, on the other hand, has trillions of data points, or more, and isn't calibrated in any meaningful sense. It is combining ocean floor mud bacteria with tree ring data with ice cores-- each measured by different means, each with different sources of error.
My model could barely get within 10%. Yet the climate researchers want us to believe that their impossibly complex models are accurate to within a single degree or two over hundreds of years. That's not 10%. That's not even 1%. (temperature percentages must be in absolute scale, so 1 degree at 25 deg C is actually 1/298= 0.003
So the climate models are claiming to have a resolution of 3 tenths of a percent over a period of time when humans haven't even been able to even accurately measure temperature.
The science isn't "science" at all. Science involves observation and measurement. Climate "research" is a religion, an article of faith entrusted to a few high priests that alone can divine the meaning of the Sacred Texts. And those who are apostate must be silenced, shunned, and shamed.
Now, it is quite possible that human are altering the climate. (all evidence suggests such alteration is actually beneficial, with freeing up fixed carbon and increasing the total quantity of biomass due to elevated CO2)
But none of the computer models put forth are evidence of that warming. And those data sources that COULD be providing evidence of such warming, if it existed, have thus far declined to tell the story that the Faithful would have it tell.
As the man said, I'll believe in global warming when Al Gore parks his private jet. Until then, it's a big racket with the powerful enriching themselves and their friends at the expense of the frightened sheep.

Al Gore agrees. It has made him a rich man and if this gets shoved enough farther down our throats as to get 'cap and trade' type legislation, it stands to make him, as one of the founding owners of the carbon exchange, rich beyond imagination.
