Excellent:

Coleman said:
“I have a feeling this is the opening,” Coleman said. “If the lawyers will take the case – sue the people who sell carbon credits. That includes Al Gore. That lawsuit would get so much publicity, so much media attention. And as the experts went to the witness stand and testified, I feel like that could become the vehicle to finally put some light on the fraud of global warming.”
Seems our old friend Monkton is on the case too...

Monkton said:
Earlier at the conference Lord Christopher Monckton, a policy adviser to former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, told an audience that the science will eventually prevail and the “scare” of global warming will go away. He also said the courts were a good avenue to show the science.
What ever happened to Monkton's offer for a debate?

Arrogant 'watt....

I'd like to leave a comment or two for the Moonbat, but registering with the Guardian is akin to lopping off one's todger with a rusty penknife...

Let's hope that this starts to gather momentum. The shonky science needs to be debunked as quickly as possible so that we don't cripple the country trying to change something that really doesn't need changing.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more comments on this, I enjoyed the video and hope they get somewhere - so I'm popping it back to the top for peak PH viewing time.

I'll be keeping an eye on this!

Good news for a change & possibly the start of something new!

I can't think of anything I'd like to see more than MMGW be blown out of the water.

I can't see the governments let there cash flow cease, so, no debate or court case.

I grew up in Chicago and John Coleman was a local TV weatherman there for many years. He was also famous for being the biggest joke on Chicago TV because his weather forecasts were always spectacularly wrong!

I remember one evening when Coleman predicted 10-12 inches of snow for the following day (not unusual for a Chicago winter) but all we got was a half-inch of rain. This was only one of Colman's many, many wrong weather forecasts.

Coleman had become such a big joke in Chicago that he launched a series of TV spots were he featured a local schoolboy who, as part of a school project, conducted a survey on the accuracy of local TV weathermen. This schoolboy's report concluded that John Coleman was Chicago's more accurate weatherman. Nobody could believe it was true and indeed it wasn't. Upon closer analysis, it was discovered that the schoolboy's work contained numerous errors and omissions.

Knowing this guy's track record, I wouldn't trust John Coleman if he told me the sky was blue!


Cheers,

This goes to show that if we can't predict tomorrow's weather, we've got absolutely no hope of predicting what the weather will be in 50 years' time.
