Climate guy Mike Mann's name is attached to over $4 million in Penn St. deals alone, no wonder climate guys say only 'Green Christmases' from now on

Climate guys are under so much pressure they may not have heard the UN say 'climate' has nothing to do with it, that it's about 'transfer of wealth.' Mike Mann effected a transfer of at least $4,166,168 to Penn State, $2.4 million of which was US taxpayer stimulus cash. In 2000 an elite climate guy predicted UK's children would never see snow. Several severe snowy winters have of course ensued since then but no one cares because it's not about climate. Wealth has continued to 'transfer' unabated.

• Although a year ago in Scotland a Minister lost his job for

ignoring upcoming snow storms, failing to prepare for them, resulting in chaos and tragedy for Scotland. Pre-occupation with man caused global warming has robbed the lives of a generation though no such thought occurred to the Minister. In his resignation letter due to the snow fiasco he even cited his getting global warming legislation passed: "It was, however, a particular pleasure to be the minister who steered the climate change legislation through the Scottish Parliament."

To allay fears of the 'no more White Christmas' crowd, here are actual winter temperature records at the beginning and end of the most recent decade:

The Scottish Minister's superior praised his departing official's work on Scotland's "world leading" global warming legislation and "sustainable growth portfolio":

12/11/10, "Above all else, your successful championing of our world leading climate change legislation is an achievement of which any politician in any parliament should be immensely proud. I know also that John Swinney deeply appreciates the strength of your contribution to the finance and sustainable growth portfolio."

• [Ed. note: No one objected to the Minister's emphasis on global warming. Such entwined with financial 'portfolios' is apparently accepted by all in Scotland politics.]

12/12/10, "Snow fiasco minister forced out," Express.co.uk, Judith Duffy

"Under fire Stewart Stevenson finally fell on his sword last night and quit after Scotland was paralysed by the worst winter storm in 40 years.

The beleaguered Transport Minister walked away from his job admitting he could have “done much more” to prevent the “frightening” chaos on the roads last week.

Thousands of motorists were trapped on motorways for up to 20 hours in freezing conditions after heavy snow on Monday left the central belt in embarrassing gridlock."...

Where's "the science?" UK East Anglia (ClimateGate) and Hadley (part of the famed UK Met Office) global warming scientists in March 2000 said kids won't ever get to see snow in the UK again. Which is fine but this "science" was used to make US government policy and demand billions in 'reparations' from middle class taxpayers. If such 'science' hadn't been used to extract money, it might not be a crime. But that's not what happened. Photo above 11/26/10 BBC, snowing in UK, motorists in Wales.

"According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become "a very rare and exciting event".

• "Children just aren't going to know what snow is," he said."...

"The GWPF is calling on the Transport Committee to set up a parliamentary inquiry into the winter advice the Government received by the Met Office and the renewed failure of both the Government and local authorities to prepare the UK transport system for the third severe winter in a row.

This year’s winter fiasco has severely damaged the British economy – and its international reputation – as a result of the country’s ill-preparedness."...

Yale Environment 360 authors advocate dropping climate discussion, that it's interfering with its central goal of changing the world economy, that it put too much pressure on climate scientists to come up with a preordained outcome.

• That the important part is to transform the global economy.

"And understood in its proper role, as one of many reasons why we should

climate science can even help contribute to the case for taking such action.
