Once again, AGW proves to be all about the money.
--------------------------
As the hype volume goes into Everest territory at the big climate summit in Paris, we’ll be a bit more succinct and just point out the Whopper of the Day.

Here’s France’s President conferring with African leaders, who told him of the expansion of the Sahara Desert. To wit, from today’s Associated Press story:

“Hollande heard from 12 African leaders who described the Sahara Desert encroaching on farmland…”

Below is the change in planetary greening measured by satellite over the last two+ decades. As you can see, the southern side of the Sahara is getting much greener over time (the northern boundary is the Mediterranean Sea). In fact, that’s the largest “greening” on the entire planet earth! What a whopper Hollande was told in Paris!

Shocker. Foreign countries lying to get American tax dollars!!! That's ok, some of our closest allies lie and steal from us too. In fact I can think of 1 really close ally who not only steals from us, but sells those secrets to our enemies.
This is why we really do need to change how we give out foreign aid. For example if we catch you lying, stealing or selling us out you get cut off permanently.

Nothings says a reputable news story than one presented by the Cato Institute and then picked up by Breitbart?!!

What could possibly motivate an organization with a large donor pool of fossil fuel industry against the AGW theory?

From tens years ago such was predicted due to the Greenhouse Effect:


Global warming could end Sahara droughts, says study | Science | The Guardian

White man's burden?

So what explains our European "allies" fleecing of the American treasury for 70 years?

I'm sure you've got a good answer.
