Possibly the Smart Money remembers the winter of 2009-10.

The winter of 2009–2010 in Europe was unusually cold. Globally, atypical weather patterns brought cold, moist air from the north. Weather systems were undergoing cyclogenesis from North American storms moving across the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and saw many parts of Europe experiencing heavy snowfall and record-low temperatures.

This led to a number of deaths, widespread transport disruption, power failures and the postponement of a number of sporting events.

Doubtless the Smart Money remembers the cold in February 2012.

The Early 2012 European cold wave was a deadly cold wave that started on January 27, 2012 and brought snow and freezing temperatures to much of the European continent.

The BBC Horizon The Pleasure of Finding Things Out[1981] interview with Richard Feynman is available on Youtube.

In this candid interview Feynman touches on a wide array of topics from the beauty of nature to particle physics. He explains things that are hard to grasp in layman’s terms much like Carl Sagan did in the cosmos series. His explanation of the scientific method covers what we know, why we know it and most importantly, what we don’t know and the pleasure of figuring…

Greenies Ship Their Pollution To China

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

By Paul Homewood

Not only are electric cars extremely expensive and unfit for purpose, it also appears they are not as green as their proponents would like us to believe.

From the GWPF:

The link is graphite, a vital component in batteries used in Tesla’s Model S, Toyota’s plug-in Prius and other electric cars, as well as in electronic gadgets including iPhones. It’s mostly mined and processed in China where graphite pollution has fouled air and water, damaged crops and raised health concerns. Now, in response, Chinese authorities are closing dozens of graphite mines and processors in a bid for cleaner air even as global demand for the commodity is surging.

“There’s little question that the Chinese are between a rock and a hard place environmentally,” said Josh Landess, an advanced transportation analyst with Bloomberg New Energy Finance. “There’s an obvious irony that the disruption it’s causing is within…
