Heartland Institute Climate Experts Respond to Obama Administration’s Climate Assessment Report

The Obama administration today released its third National Climate Assessment (NCA) predicting a series of calamities and urging action on the president’s climate agenda.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) May 06, 2014

The Obama administration today released its third National Climate Assessment (NCA) predicting a series of calamities and urging action on the president’s climate agenda.

It stands in contrast to the conclusions of the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change, which released its latest scientific reports in September and March. A third report in the Climate Change Reconsidered series is due this summer to coincide with the Ninth International Conference on Climate Change from July 7–9 in Las Vegas.

The following statements from climate policy experts at The Heartland Institute – a free-market think tank – may be used for attribution. For more comments, refer to the contact information below. To book a Heartland guest on your program, please contact Director of Communications Jim Lakely at jlakely(at)heartland(dot)org and 312/377-4000 or (cell) 312/731-9364.

“This laughably misleading report is the predictable result when hard-core environmental activists are chosen to write up a climate assessment for, and subject to the approval and revisions of, the Obama administration. It is like the punch line to a bad joke: "How many environmental activists does it take to put together an alarmist global warming report?"

“Leading authors of this report include staffers for activist groups like the Union of Concerned Scientists, Planet Forward, The Nature Conservancy, and Second Nature. Few objective climate experts will take this report seriously. Even those scientists who are not overtly affiliated with environmental activist groups were almost uniformly on the record as global warming alarmists before being chosen to write this report. The only real surprise in the report is it didn’t take the opportunity to trumpet the Union of Concerned Scientists’ call for U.S. unilateral nuclear disarmament.

“It would take a whole squadron of environmental activists years to come up with the whoppers told in this report. The report falsely asserts that global warming is causing more extreme weather events, more droughts, more record high temperatures, more wildfires, warmer winters, etc., when each and every one of these false assertions is contradicted by objective, verifiable evidence. It reads like a press release from The Nature Conservancy and the Union of Concerned Scientists – probably because it essentially is a press release from The Nature Conservancy and the Union of Concerned Scientists.”

“The Obama administration’s climate report comes at a time when numerous polls demonstrate that climate change is a low priority for most Americans. A Wall Street Journal/NBC poll in January found climate change ranked last on a list of l5 issues when people were asked what the administration should make its priorities.

“What a different nation America could be were it not for Obama’s deliberate attack on the coal industry and other fossil fuels sources. In the name of reducing emissions climatologists believe play a minor role in climate change, Obama deliberately ignores the increasing use of coal in nations like China, Japan, and India. Nothing the U.S. does will impact the climate when the use of fossil fuels by other nations is factored in.”

IoT will stump IT until clouds and big data come aboard, EMC says

The IT systems of the past 20 years won’t be able to handle the emerging Internet of Things, which will call for cloud computing, virtualization, efficient storage and big-data analysis, according to EMC.

As more consumer devices and industrial equipment get connected through the IoT, the flood of data and the opportunities to make things run better will make the familiar client-server systems now in use obsolete, said Paul Maritz, CEO of EMC’s Pivotal division.

Maritz and the rest of EMC’s top executives used the EMC World conference in Las Vegas this week to sell their vision of a “3rd Platform” of computing driven by mobile devices, big data, public and private clouds and social networking, which they said is replacing a “2nd platform” rooted in client-server technology. The company has combined its core EMC storage business with VMware, RSA Security and the Pivotal division to offer the pieces enterprises need to make the transition.

Highway Collapses

Part of Interstate 15 collapsed yesterday after a construction worker’s blowtorch started a fire on the freeway's bridge. The highway is the main route between Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

The disaster began when a construction worker's blowtorch accidentally started a fire on the wooden supports of an overpass bridge, San Bernardino County Fire Capt. Josh Wilkins told the Associated Press.

After the wooden supports caught on fire, the bridge suddenly collapsed in Hesperia, Calif. (video below).

Traffic was backed up on the freeway for up to 20 miles. California transportation officials said this part of Interstate 15 would be closed for up two days.

On Monday night, firefighters were still spraying water on the collapsed bridge, while construction workers used blow torches to get rid of the mangled sections of steel, noted The Los Angeles Times.

"It's not looking good," Caltrans spokeswoman Terri Kasinga said yesterday.

"If you do know alternate routes, you should take those routes," added San Bernardino County Fire Department spokeswoman Tracey Martinez.

US Attorney's Office Omits Mexican Cartel Involvement in Alleged US Meth Kidnapping, Torture Case

US Attorney's Office Omits Mexican Cartel Involvement in Alleged US Meth Kidnapping, Torture Case Alleged Enforcers for a Mexican cartel were reportedly involved in the kidnapping and torture of U.S. teenagers over methamphetamine in St. Paul, Minnesota, according to the local St. Paul Pioneer Press. The U.S. Attorney’s office omitted Mexican cartel involvement in their official press release on the case. The DOJ agency did this once before when they omitted Mexican leadership in a Chicago case Breitbart News broke regarding the kidnapping of a mother and children over Mexican narcotics.

The release was titled, "Four Indicted for Drug Trafficking Crimes Involving a Violent Kidnapping in St. Paul" and only identified the perpetrators as being from U.S. cities. There were no mentions of Mexico, cartels, or even a transnational criminal organization—the agency simply omitted the vital information amid national discussions of immigration reform and debates regarding the importance of border security. The U.S. Attorney’s office described the men as having “roles in a large-scale methamphetamine trafficking organization.” The particulars of the case—even without knowledge of alleged Mexican cartel involvement—reveal a brutal underworld in the northern-most U.S. states, similar to what routinely occurs in Mexico’s own drug war.

The official press release from the DOJ agency described the horrid alleged crimes and wrote:



On April 14, 2014, defendants Ramirez and Alvarez flew from Los Angeles, California to Minnesota in response to a report that approximately 30 pounds of methamphetamine had been stolen from the stash house two days earlier. On the evening of April 14, the four defendants kidnapped two victims at gunpoint and held them captive against their will at the stash house. The defendants bound and beat the victims and made violent threats against their lives and the lives of their family members, while demanding information about the missing methamphetamine. According to the indictment, Villalvazo cut one of the victim’s fingers, nearly severing it, while Ramirez held the victim down.



The local St. Paul Pioneer Press claims wrote, “A Mexican drug cartel had a "stash house" in St. Paul, and when drugs and money were stolen from it last month, several people thought to be involved were kidnapped and tortured, according to charges filed in Ramsey County District Court.” The local paper added, “In addition, a woman said she was taken to the house in the West Seventh neighborhood, questioned and raped, a search warrant affidavit said.”

The reach of Mexican cartels and their operations inside of the U.S. has been widely reported by Breitbart News, however heavily downplayed by numerous agencies under the DOJ umbrella—especially in their documents released to the American public.

The Chicago kidnapping case mentioned previously involved U.S. gang members in Chicago operating under the orders of a leader residing in Mexico. In that instance, a Mexican cartel’s drugs were stolen and an order came from Mexico via telephone for the mother and children of the alleged thief to be kidnapped at gunpoint. The order was carried out. However, the official press release from the U.S. Attorney’s office did not mention that the narcotics belonged to a Mexican cartel. That detail was buried and only discovered by hours of research into court documents.

Another press release from the U.S. Attorney’s office in Washington State was headlined, “Southwest Washington Man Who Operated Shingle Mill as Cover for Drug Dealing Gets 10-Year Prison Term.” Once again, after further research, Breitbart News discovered that the “Southwest Washington man” was actually a Mexican national. The U.S. Attorney’s office went on record and finally admitted that the man was working for a Mexican cartel—though they omitted this vital detail in their initial public statement on the case.

The trend is clear: Mexican nationals are leading large-scale methamphetamine operations across the U.S. and agencies under the DOJ umbrella are failing to mention the details in their public statements or press releases. Only after searching through court documents can one find the fact that a large methamphetamine operation was led by someone from Mexico, much less that Mexican cartels were running the operations.

Breitbart Texas Contributing Editor and Border Security Expert Sylvia Longmire stated, "This kind of cartel violence happens across America much more often than we are led to believe--in Las Vegas, outside Atlanta and northern Alabama are just a few examples. Not only are we led to believe that our borders are safer and more secure than at any time in history, but the level and frequency of violent Mexican cartel activity across the US is repeatedly downplayed or relegated to local media reports that never see the national light of day." Longmire added, "Department of Homeland Security officials have stated in congressional testimony that they don't keep track of cartel violence in the US, which allows them plausible deniability of its existence. If America saw this story and so many others like it played out on major TV networks during even one news cycle, they would be horrified, and rightly so. This is probably what the DOJ and DHS are trying to prevent: citizens learning the truth about the real reach of Mexican cartels into our nation's heartland."
