Global Warming
Thankfully Peter Sinclair has been keeping himself busy with more debunking of climate change Denier fables, although each of his installments does more than simply debunk the fable in question.
Even if you know why the crock in question is a crock, they are still well worth watching and sharing as broadly as possible (HINT Social networks: Facebook, Care2, Stumble, Plum, Twitter … hint hint hint …)
“The “Urban Heat Island” Crock”
“I Love the 70s!!” CAUTION: may contain disco music 😉
You can subscribe to Peter’s Youtube Channel at YouTube – greenman3610′ and get them hot off the editor.
Some other climate change media:
Accelerated Global WarmingChannel
Fast paced, high energy, with a surprising amount of content, albeit presented for effect rather than retention. This is the effort of Steven Thompson at Plomomedia and I look forward to more from him.
I’m just going to quote the site for this next one: “Art and polemic collide with The Danger Global Warming Project” , a multimedia creative initiative designed to raise awareness of climate change with original images, sound and video material.”

YouTube – DANGER GLOBAL WARMING (video by Thomas Frenzel)
I really like this one, but there are quite a number contributions going on within this project and more than a few of them are really interesting; eg
YouTube – DANGER GLOBAL WARMING (video by Alexandre Athane)
YouTube – Blacksmoke – Danger Global Warming (Magne F Remix)
YouTube – Blacksmoke – Danger Global Warming (Trentemøller Remix)
It looks like we are reaching some people, and they are important allies to have; check them all out (and at MySpace) and post/share – support socially conscious artists and musicians.

Denier “Challenge” aka Deathwatch Update: Day 147 … still no evidence.

Back when Stephen (Plomo) was releasing test versions of his Al Gore Rhythm video, I was fending off the flock of denialists that herded to his comments section, and as a result got to speak with him a bit more about our motivations on climate. He’s a self-admitted artist rather than a scientist, but helping in his own way — “to serve as an inspirational jumpstart for people who need something else to think about besides which winner to pick.”
(On a side note, he actually managed to make a Senate testimony worth watching multiple times. Serious skill; makes me really sad I’m tone-deaf.)
My laptop’s on my last legs and can barely manage YouTube; once I’m on a machine that can watch these properly I’ll comment again.
Great stuff Mike, keep it up!
The latest crock video is about Mars and Pluto.
It points out the issue of a lack of data about the planets compared to earth.
Brian D:
Wow, that was one über-cool remix.
Have I more time, energy, tools, and resources, I might do a remix of the material from the climate inactivists. They’re essentially a sort of warped advertisement industry and they produce quite a lot of junk, so in theory it should be possible to recycle some of it for a good cause…

A UK animated film by Leo Murray:

He has also worked on the recent Age of Stupid movie.
We’ve got to be united to save earth! Earth Hour is practised at large scale in all developed and developing countries but there has been more publicity and awareness this year, as well as participation from large corporations like http://www.commit21.com/ which is a good sign – that there is still hope and that people still care!
Let’s all do this, no matter where you are! Saturday, 28 March 2009. Lights off from 8.30pm to 9.30pm!
Nature Concern
Paul, that one was up earlier on Greenfyre’s, though thanks for the reminder and the connection to Age of Stupid.
Frank: sort of a ‘Why Should People Laugh At Inactivists’ counterpart to the well-known Thunderf00t series?
Brian D: Yeah… except more artistic. 🙂

Pretty good… though I don’t like the use of only one year (2008) for showing the geographical non-correlation with UHI.
Isn’t there a trend map somewhere on NASA GISS?
Gavin’s pussycat: yes, but it’s harder to follow since cool areas can still have strong positive trends. The trend map can be generated at GISS’ website. (can’t link it from here)
