I will allow comments through by default for repeat commenters again, first time commenters will still need an initial approval.
I will however now be a more active moderator and delete things that are useless or unnecessarily personal from now on, except on this thread.
This is unavoidably subjective but I will try to err on the side of permissiveness. The goal will be controlling the tone more so than the content. Readers should keep in mind the fact I am in an Australian time zone, so doomed comments may be visible for many hours. I expect this blog will remain pretty quiet for the time being, though I still hope to have more to say in the future. It is in some ways an interesting time in The Climate Wars (really wild weather, new global anomaly records, politics), but also in other ways it is all so much “same as it ever was”.

That opinion can have no merit whatsoever until you read the IPCC report and justify your opinion by showing what it is in the report that you think is incorrect.
If you haven’t read it, you can’t possibly know how reliable it is. It is fully referenced throughout so you can easily go and check the primary sources for all the information that is summarised in the report.

I say leftists because only leftist thinkers are closed-minded enough to blindly and arrogantly follow Al Gore and his mates at the IPCC.
Perhaps you could try pointing out small sections of the IPCC report that you can use to convince me that the information is true and credible, and not alarmism based solely on computer modeling.

You seem to be missing it every time, moron.
We don’t care what your paranoia says.
Read the IPCC.
Either its convincing, in which case your petulant and stupid demand is answered for you, or it’s not in which case you still know what convinced us.
But your claims about the IPCC and climate science are out of complete and willing ignorance and screamed out merely because you are a paranoid delusional maniac.
In which case obeying your demands is the worst thing we can do for you, since it will only feed your insanity.
Read the IPCC.
It’s not hard at all.
Even a modest intellect, well within the remit of the vast majority of the human adult population in full mental heath, can read and comprehend the contents.
So far your claims are all 100% falsified by the contents of the IPCC, which is still valid because your crazy paranoia is ABOUT the report’s content, not its evidence or conclusion.

Basically, you have no idea what you are talking about and are simply repeating unsceptical propaganda you have imbibed from somewhere.

Hello Craig.
Welcome back to the conversation.
I have actually read numerous IPCC reports.
That is the reason I don’t trust them.
I have been interested in this debate for many years and have a pretty good understanding of it.
I truly do not understand why you cannot sum up your beliefs in just a short par or two.
I suspect it’s because you know that no matter which “evidence” you point to, it is based on computer models.
