Tech-savvy parents are using big tech’s new A.I. systems — Alexa, Siri and Google Assistant — as surrogate babysitters. But what happens when children start viewing these bias-ridden systems as authority figures?

According to the research firm eMarketer, approximately 68 million consumers use A.I. assistants on their phones or voice-enabled smart speakers like the Amazon Echo, Google Home, or Apple’s new HomePod. They are especially popular among parents, many of whom are setting up assistants in children’s rooms.

The Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) released an analysis this week that claims, “Pennsylvania’s oil and gas companies emit at least five-times more methane pollution than they report to the state.”

But EDF’s analysis is misleading, considering it’s based on an outdated report that overestimated emissions and the fact that only the unconventional oil and gas industry – which represents 82 percent of new wells drilled since 2015 and 72 percent of the wells drilled in 2015 – is required to report emissions to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).

Organizations give awards to recognize those individuals who best display the values that organization seeks to represent and uphold. The American Association for the Advancement of Science is the leading scientific organization in the United States.

Are you waiting for delivery—of your EV (electric vehicle)? Sorry to have to disappoint you (again).

As the main-stream media reported everywhere, the top Roadster model, modified, and complete with a mannequin behind the wheel together with its miniature relative, was just sent into a circum-solar trajectory—never to be seen again by potential eager buyers on this planet. But it is really fast, travelling at a speed of 6,864 miles/hour!

Dear MIT Climate Actors,

I, an MIT alum, was just looking at MIT’s so-called Climate Action Plan, particularly its advisory committee, to see if there were any skeptical climate scientists on it — science that doesn’t allow a diversity of opinions is not science.

Not only were there no skeptical climate scientists on it, there were no real climate scientists at all!

One of the prime tenets of Electric Universe Theory is that electromagnetism dominates over gravity throughout the universe, given that 99{154653b9ea5f83bbbf00f55de12e21cba2da5b4b158a426ee0e27ae0c1b44117} of all matter (ignoring the fictitious Dark Matter and Energy) is plasma and that electromagnetism is 39 orders of magnitude stronger than gravity.

After 3-week trial Canadian judge dismisses all charges in the lawsuit brought against Dr. Tim Ball by British Columbia Green Party leader Andrew Weaver. Climate skeptics are hailing the verdict as a key victory over extremists promoting human-caused global warming. Not a peep from the mainstream media!

The rumor that Google has tuned its search algorithm to work against the skeptics of climate change alarmism appears to be true.

Searches on prominent skeptics systematically yield more negative attacks than positive information. This cannot be an accident. It may well be illegal, given Google’s deep financial interest in alarmism.

Records will be broken across the country this week, as wintry weather sets in along the West Coast and the warmth moves out east.

After a deep freeze, the U.S. East Coast is warming up and forecasts project record-warm daily low temperatures for February over the next couple of days. Much of the deep south can expect temperatures in the mid-60s when they wake up Tuesday morning, according to Weather.us.

Daily high temperatures will also break records. Expect record highs to be broken from the Carolinas all the way up to New England, according to Weather.us meteorologist Ryan Maue.

It seems that alarmists get their exercise mainly by jumping to conclusions. Using datasets as trampolines they make great leaps of faith, oftentimes turning reality upside down in the process.

The latest example is the mass media excitement and exaggerations concerning sea level rise. Just consider the listing from Google News Feb. 13:

Now that the excitement has died down over the news that Earth’s surface temperature made 2017 one of the hottest years on record, it is time for sober second thoughts.

Did the January 18 announcement by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that 2017 was our planet’s third-hottest year since 1880, and NASA’s claim that it was the second hottest year, actually mean anything?

Skeptic climatologist, Dr Tim Ball – after his sensational courtroom victory over UN IPCC junk scientist and British Columbia Green Party Leader – now targets climate fraudster, Michael ‘hockey stick’ Mann.

U.S. corn states have actually experienced slightly cooler summers since the mid-20th century, according to a new study documenting how the regions bucked the overall global warming trend.

Scientists with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) found the intensification of agriculture operations actually cooled Midwest regions from 1950 to 2009, showing the importance of local land-use in climatic changes.

Every object in the Universe that is radiating infra red is cooling down. Ergo the mighty Sun is cooling down as every molecule that is radiating infra red is also cooling down. The Earth also, this Planet on which we live, is radiating infrared, not so powerful as the infrared from the Sun, but powerful enough. Ergo the Earth ĺikewise is cooling down.

Injecting frightening scenarios into climate science reporting has seemingly become a prerequisite for publication. In a new Nature Geoscience editorial, a common scare tactic is utilized by the (unidentified) author so as to grab readers’ attention.
