James has a great post over at 2nd Grade Bike Rack (you should ask him the story behind that name one of these days) talking about "Exhibit 32" from the last Environmental Quality Council. He wasn't able to post it at Blogspot, but he was kind enough to ...

You should really give the whole thing a read, but if you don't have time, here's the important part:
So the bottom line is this: When it comes to future climate, no one knows what they’re talking about. No one. Not the IPCC nor its scientists, not the US National Academy ...

...based on bad science. But we've covered that already. Here is a peer-reviewed study from the Montana Policy Institute that comes to the same conclusion. You can read the entire report here. (And gird yourselves for some wailing and gnashing!)

Er, I mean DEQ launches Climate Change Web site.
Judging from the site's content, they're one and the same, aren't they?

Citizens' Voice Subverted by Agenda-Driven Interests?
There is a nifty think tank down in Bozeman, called PERC, the Property and Environment Resource Center. They're pretty low-key, but they do put out some good stuff. Mostly, they are focused on market-based solutions to environmental problems.

My reply is, "So what?"

Surprise, surprise, surprise.
For example, the light-reflecting shelves in the building haven't worked -- intended to reduce electric bills, workers complain of glare.
