Climate Denial Crock of the Week

Peter Sinclair is a graphic artist, illustrator, animator, and environmental awareness advocate. He's been posting a series of "Climate Denial Crock of the Week" videos on the internet.

The Great Petition Fraud. "We've all heard about the 'Petitions' of 'Scientists' who disagree with Climate Science. This sordid little episode in the history of Climate Denial points up once again the fundamental dishonesty of the climate denial industry."

The Urban Heat Island Crock. "Could the scientists at NASA, the National Academy of Science, the American Meteorological Society, and every professional scientific organization on the planet really have been so silly as to miss something this obvious?"

That 1500 Year Thing. "Climate Deniers S. Fred Singer and Dennis Avery make their living by confusing and obfuscating the science of climate change. Their latest book, 'Unstoppable Global Warming every 1500 Years' is a compendium of vintage as well as cutting edge climate crocks. Let's find out who they are and how they are bamboozling their audience."

I Love the '70s!! "Everyone has a favorite decade, and for Climate Deniers, that decade has got to be the '70s. Yes, the decade of disco, kung fu, and watergate. Because in the '70s, Deniers will tell you, all climate scientists believed an ice age was coming. Those crazy climate scientists! Why can't they make up their minds? But is that really true? Maybe a little historical perspective is in order."

Mars Attacks!! "It seems to be agreed among Deniers that there is a warming happening on other planets in the solar system. And not just one or two planets. It is considered Climate Denier gospel that all the other planets are warming, and that this is proof that some kind of solar activity is warming the whole system. Let's look at the evidence."

It's cold. So there's no Climate Change. "'I looked outside, and it was snowing, therefore, there is no climate change.' If that's what passes for rational thought in your social group, you owe it to yourself to watch this edition of Climate Denial Crock of the Week."
