Global warming is a farce

There are some socialist politicians and their media sycophants who attempt to hobble the United States' productivity by ceaselessly trumpeting the effects of so-called global warming.

There are many scientists who believe there is no global warming. There are others who are not sure whether or not global warming exists but if there is global warming they are not certain that it is caused by man's activities. Yet, we are all to blindly and hysterically sign the Kyoto Treaty and cripple our economic production while China, India, and Russia are exempted from this treaty.

Some scientists believe, and this belief is gaining ground because of the over-whelming evidence, that the Earth undergoes natural cycles of heating and cooling relatively unaffected by man's activities. Although there have been some recent years of higher temperatures, overall, the planet heated up mostly up until 1940 after which, as a whole, the global temperature has cooled. No one would know this from the media (except during the 1970's when we were supposed to be undergoing global cooling).

Incidentally, the recent years of higher Earth temperatures parallel higher temperatures on Mars. Scientists do believe with some certainty that there are no factories or SUVS on Mars. What has occurred during this time is an increase in solar activity.

In any event, as the attached link reveals in an article, even the UN does not agree in regards to global warming in spite of the cherry picked propaganda regurgitated without question by the media. Trained as a scientist, I am sceptical by nature, especially when those who are receiving large grants are the most vocal in regards to global warming. Follow the money, always.http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/story.html?id=156df7e6-d490-41c9-8b1f-106fef8763c6&k=0

Chicken Little and global warming

The sky is falling. It truly is.

Jimmy Carter stated with near certainty in the late 70’s that we would run out of oil by the end of the century. The Federal Energy Administration then predicted based on models that the world would run out of oil and our country would run out of natural gas by the year 2000. We still have, conservatively, over a century’s worth of oil remaining.

Speaking of the year 2000, what happened to the predicted Y2K collapse?

Also during the 1970’s, the world faced a global catastrophe from Global Cooling that never quite panned out.

Who can forget 2006, the year that was supposed to be the worst year ever for hurricanes?

In the meantime, we’ve dealt with killer bees, child molesters at every bus stop, Internet dating gone astray, and anything else the media can use to scare us into buying their printed materials or watching mind- numbing programs with advertisements telling us what to buy to make us happy. Further, the Malthusian people still believe that we will soon run out of food to feed the world. As in Jimmy Carter’s case, there are willing political sycophants to assist in terrifying us.

Now, we are supposed to be excited about global warming. The UN’s recent report was cherry picked for information supporting the global warming crowd. In fact, this report actually backed off of many prior claims and predictions of extremes. We have less ice melting, etc., than was predicted even several years ago. We are talking inches of new shoreline in the future, and certainly not twenty feet as Al Gore would have us believe.

The UN Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change had a summary graph of temperature changes for the past millennium. The millennium began with temperatures about the same as they are now. The Little Ice Age began about 1400. We are now in the recovery period of this natural cycle.

Several recent years showed spikes in global temperature that paralleled temperature increases on Mars attributed to solar activity. As much as I would like to blame SUV owners for temperature increases, NASA has not yet found SUVS on Mars.There is an extreme amount of reputable, credible, and mainstream contrarian information to successfully contest the global warming crowd. Much of this is not heard because those who hold these views are shouted down, or threatened with the withholding of research funds or jobs.What will the media have us needlessly “worry” about in the coming years once global warming chills out?
