The Fouler Cries Foul
This is rich, coming from the Global Warming capo on the left, he who relishes rhetorical knee-capping: ClimateProgress was the victim of a recent such bullying effort, as detailed in this recent post. The point, of course, is to try to shout down those of us who are warning about the dire nature of the…Continue Reading…
Here's Mud in Your Face
The latest journalist to get sprayed in a typical Romm drive-by pushes back ever so politely. Romm, in his tasteless, arrogant response, shows how smart guys can be so dumb.
Somebody Help Joe Romm
Always eager to play the guilt-by-association card, Joe Romm seizes on George Will’s latest column in yet another attempt to tar the reputations of Michael Shellenberger and Ted Nordhaus of The Breakthrough Institute. By now, it should be clear to sensible greens that Romm can’t help himself. He seems possessed by a fanatical hatred for…Continue Reading…
Do the Twister, Romm-Style
As the mind-numbing debate over Waxman-Markey grinds on, we should be thankful for the unintended entertainment provided by Joe Romm’s rants and contortionist logic.

Let’s highlight the most recent best of the worst, starting with the bile he spewed on Friday to kick off the long holiday weekend. You won’t find any disgust expressed by Climate Progress readers (or such…Continue Reading…
Follow the Bouncing Climate Bill
If you thought the debate over cap and trade legislation (as embodied in the Waxman-Markey bill) was already overheated, ridiculous, and divisive, you ain’t seen nothing yet. The real fun begins today, with amendment madness unleashed by the Republicans. That will amount to little more than a sideshow, but as the markup process plays out…Continue Reading…
Spare Me Your Despair
Are you having the same recurring nightmare, the one where you, WALL-E and Marc Morano (who is grinning maniacally) are the last inhabitants on earth? Does the sight of Bjorn Lomborg make you physically ill? Do you find yourself crying uncontrollably every time another chunk of the Antarctic ice sheet melts into the sea? If…Continue Reading…
The Hansen Effect
Imagine that: an actual debate on the merits of cap and trade versus a carbon tax breaks out in the blogosphere, courtesy of James Hansen. That doesn’t hurt so bad, does it Joe?
