Green politics takes a hit. Opinion Surveys

    In the general election in the Irish Republic all six Green party members of the Dail lost their seats.  Previously the President of the Irish Farmers Union John Bryan had said that the policies of the Green Party on agriculture would derail the Republic`s economic recovery by imposing unrealistic restrictions that would destroy the potential of the  agri food sector to deliver exports and jobs.

    A Scientific American survey involving interviewing thousands has found that 77 percent of those interviewed said that climate change is a natural phenomenon, while a staggering 83 percent said that the IPCC was corrupt.
(UK government take note!).

   The Public Service Broadcasting Trust commissioned a survey on global warming among young people in UK
towards the end of 2010. The survey involved over 3000 young people and was conducted by ITV Fixers. The survey showed that climate change came last in the priorities of the young people. The survey showed they were more concerned about their financial futures..  It was one of the largest surveys of youth opinion ever conducted in the UK.

Green Sector costs more jobs than it creates-report by Verso Economics

               The Global Warming Policy Forum has publicised a report by Verso Economics which has found that 3.7jobs are lost for every green job created in the UK as a whole. The report said that the renewable industry in Scotland benefited from a massive annual £330million transfer in subsidies from the UK taxpayer. Richard Marsh research director of Verso Economics said the case for green jobs does not stack up. (reported from BBC News)

US House of Representatives votes 244-179 to stop US funding of the IPCC.

         Rick Piltz reporting in climatesciencewatch.org reports on 19 February 2011 the huge US Congress vote against  any further funding of the pro man made climate change Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC). Republican Blaine Luetkemeyer of Missouri led the onslaught when referring to the leaked climategate files from the climate research unit at the University of East Anglia  in November 2009.  He said "Scientists manipulated data,suppressed legitimate arguments in peer reviewed journals and researchers were asked to destroy e-mails,so that a small number of climate alarmists could continue to advance their environmental agenda"    Holding a recent 740 page report in his hand signed by 700 acclaimed international scientists which challenged the claims made by the IPCC and which he said represented some of the most respected institutions at home and abroad including the US Department of Energy and Defense, the US Army and Navy.  A vote of 244-179 is most decisive and illustrates the American public have had enough of the man made climate nonsense.

The BBC Pension Funds and biased(man made) climate reporting- the Link

     American lawyer John O`Sullivan reports on the link between the BBC Pension scheme and biased pro human warmist BBC reporting..He reports that the United Nations green machine via a consortium known as "UNEP F1" has been sucking up trillions of dollars of investments from pension funds around the world. The BBC pension fund is just one of 180 such funds invested in UNEP F1.  OSullivan reports that the head of the BBC Pension fund is none other than Peter Dunscombe who headed the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (tied with UNEP F1). O`Sullivan says that Dunscombe has breached the BBC charter which eschews both political and commercial influence and that his position is untenable. Pension funds of such tax payer funded institutions as the BBC are heavily invested in schemes reliant on belief in the man made global warming theory or hoax.   (Further information see John O`Sullivan 13 February 2010 johnosullivan.livejournal.com   `Follow the money` BBC exposed in biggest climate racket on planet`).    UKIP member of the European Parliament Godfrey Bloom says `the BBC has blocked skeptics of (man made)climate change for four years, it is biased reporting and it is censorship`   O`Sullivan says that Godfrey Bloom is now being entirely vindicated as we see that the BBC has been shamelessly plugging its own profiteering agenda. (O`Sullivan 13 February 2010).
