   When the staff at Hatewatch wants to know about the weird weather out   
   there, we know just where to turn: Stormfront.org. That’s right, the   
   leading white supremacist Web forum in the world. Only there can you   
   find a truly unique revelation about the causes of global warming, and   
   it has nothing to do with carbon emissions.   
      
   It’s the Jews.   
      
   That the nefarious Jews are behind “climate change and carbon trading   
   scams” comes from no less an authority than a Stormfront member of more   
   than three years who posts under the moniker of ZOG.gov. (ZOG is a   
   white supremacists’ acronym for Zionist Occupied Government.) He   
   thoughtfully posted photos and biographical information of nine climate   
   experts whom he identified as being Jewish. In a tiny oversight,   
   however, ZOG.gov neglected to explain what the nefarious nine have said   
   that is a climate change-related “scam.” At least two of the climate   
   curmudgeons have been awarded lucrative “genius” grants from the   
   MacArthur Foundation. (Not to worry, Stormfront readers: Businessman   
   and philanthropist John D. MacArthur was the son of an itinerant   
   Baptist preacher.) Among the men listed:   
      
   • Michael E. Mann, an internationally known Pennsylvania State   
   University climate scientist whose E-mail correspondence with fellow   
   climate researchers in which they ridiculed their critics was leaked by   
   hackers last fall. The disclosures were dubbed “Climategate” by climate   
   change skeptics. Mann denied any wrongdoing, and a Penn State panel   
   found no credible evidence on three of four allegations made against   
   him. The panel directed another committee to determine whether Mann   
   “deviated from accepted practices within the academic community.”   
      
   • Joseph J. Romm, a physicist and climate blogger who last year was one   
   of Rolling Stone magazine’s “100 People Who Are Changing America,” and   
   was named by Time magazine as one of its “Heroes of the Environment.”   
      
   • Stephen H. Schneider, a professor of environmental biology and global   
   change at Stanford University. Schneider has been a consultant to   
   federal agencies and White House staff in Democratic and Republican   
   administrations.   
      
   • Todd D. Stern, who served six years in the Clinton White House, the   
   last two of them coordinating the administration’s initiative on global   
   climate change. Last year, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appointed   
   Stern as the department’s special envoy for climate change, entrusting   
   him with a key role in developing U.S. policy.   
      
   Conspicuously absent from the list of global warming wonks is the best   
   known of them all: Former U.S. senator, vice president and   
   near-president Al Gore. Gore’s critically acclaimed and commercially   
   successful 2006 documentary film, “An Inconvenient Truth,” was an   
   impassioned appeal for the public and policymakers to take heed of   
   climate change, and won an Academy Award. In 2007, Gore also won the   
   Nobel Peace Prize with the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate   
   Change. So why isn’t Gore at the top of the list? He’s a Baptist — an   
   inconvenient truth.
