Environmental Hypocrits

If the environmental hysteria was real... and not just a political ploy... wouldn't you think that the leading critics would be leaders?

Robert F Kennedy Jr: Receiving royalty payments for participation in two family-owned oil drilling companies. Click HERE for reference.

Al Gore: According to Nashville Electrical Service records, Mr. Gore's Tennessee home uses TWENTY TIMES the level of electricity that a "normal" Tennessee home uses. They used, in this one home, a total of 191,100 kilowatt hours in 2006. This is an ENORMOUS energy waste. Click HERE for the source. In addition, Mr. Gore is part owner of one of the world's largest oil drilling and petroleum companies: Occidental Petroleum. Click HERE for reference. Funny, I thought George Bush was the 'oil baron'?

Welcome... to the "Politics of Fear"!


 

Robert F. Kennedy Jr - Heroin Addict

Well, here we go again. Yet another Democratic political figure, who also happens to be a Kennedy, and coincidentally a convicted heroin user that got out of serving any time (like his Uncle Teddy did after killing a woman) now fancies himself an environmental scientist.

Just for the record, we'll clear up this question about heroin use: " In 1983, he was arrested in a Rapid City South Dakota Airport for heroin possession after being found unconscious in an airplane bathroom with a needle stuck into his arm, a search of his carry-on bag uncovered 183 milligrams of heroin. Upon entering a plea of guilty, Kennedy, then 30 years old was sentenced to two years probation, periodic tests for drug use, treatment by joining Narcotics Anonymous, and 1,500 hours of community service by Presiding Judge Marshall P. Young."

Yeah... this guy has credibility... NOT!
Another drugged out Kennedy whacko out of the woodwork.

Now, RFK Jr (the airplane bathroom boy with heroin needle out of his ass) is ripping President Bush and all those who do not think that global warming is occurring. He states that he believes the nation is living a "science-fiction nightmare" because it hasn't signed the Kyoto Treaty. Well... I have news for RFK Jr. He is in his OWN "science-fiction nightmare" and should not drag the rest of sober clearheaded Americans into his drug hazed drooling stupor. What an idiot.

And even worse... Virgina Tech University paid this moron good money to come and ramble about his drug induced paranoia. Good money gone to bad. What a shame.

No Global Warming! Instead, Global Cooling WITH PROOF

Quote: "Analysis of the sun's varying activity in the last two millennia indicates that contrary to the IPCC's speculation about man-made global warming as high as 5.8° C within the next hundred years, a long period of cool climate with its coldest phase around 2030 is to be expected." -- Dr. Theodor Landscheidt (from: Schroeter Institute for Research in Cycles of Solar Activity Klammerfelsweg 5, 93449 Waldmuenchen, Germany)

"An Inconvenient Truth" is nominated for an Academy Award

And monkeys just flew out my butt!

Al Gore was asked, while on stage, by actor Leonardo DiCaprio (another genius scientists with a PhD - NOT) whether he had a "major, major announcement to the world here tonight," Al Gore hesitated a moment and and then pulled out a piece of paper (an apparently prepared statement) to read.

"Since being up here, you've been very convincing," he told the audience of acturds and axestresses. "Even though I honestly had not planned on doing this, I guess with a billion people watching, it's as good as time as any. So, my fellow Americans, I'm going to take this opportunity right here and now to formally announce my intention..."

Then suddenly the band started playing - loudly - urgently - drowning out the rest of his words...

Talk about self-centered egocentric maniacs! "A message to the world"... Al, I hate to break this to you but a billion people were NOT watching, the world was NOT watching. Humanity had a lot better things to do with their lives than waste an evening watching vain egocentric empty-headed word memorizers pat each other on the back like they were the center of the universe... And how about the musical BIG HOOK pulling Mr. Gore out of the limelight he so lovingly enjoys. A nice touch...

Science Fiction Academy Award

It is thought that Al Gore will win an Academy Award this week for his pseudo-documentary movie: An Inconvenient Truth. In case you haven't seen the movie, the overall gist is that the world is boiling away, all the ice is melting, the oceans will rise and flood us all, and we're all gonna die. All because of humanity and their SUVs. Of course, you must try to remember that the Academy Awards are not a scientific peer review body. They're actresses and actors voting on fictional movies in which the actors and actresses "pretend" to be someone else by memorizing scripts of words and then repeating them in front of a camera - let's try to keep this all in perspective.

Sadly though, Mr. Gore (not Professor Gore, or Doctor Gore) tries to portray this movie as factual. Well, in fact, it is nothing but alarmist and hysterical fear mongering. And we must recall how well fear works in a political setting and how well it goes over in a nation that has been dumbed down to a very low denominator.

There is absolutely no science that backs up his assertions. This, despite the insistence of the United Nations that there is science behind this. Of course again, let's keep this in perspective. The United Nations is merely a body of thugs, thieves, rapists, and third world marxist dictators wishing nothing less than the collapse of the United States.

One piece of "science" used by Mr. Gore is a finding published in SCIENCE magazine: "According to satellite data published in Science in November 2005, Greenland was losing about 25 cubic miles of ice per year. Dividing that by 630,000 yields the annual percentage of ice loss, which, when multiplied by 100, shows that Greenland was shedding ice at 0.4 percent per century." Well, this by itself, if taken in context, is really not a lot. But, the REAL inconvenient truth (are you listening here Mr. Gore?) is that in February of 2007, SCIENCE published ANOTHER article showing that the acceleration of ice loss in Greenalnd had now reversed. Ice is once again building rapidly.

What is behind Mr. Gore's fear mongering? I can tell you in one word: politics. Politics of the worst kind... playing upon the imaginary fears of millions of uneducated peoples. This is the FEAR of the new ECO-NAZI's (having replaced the Communist Party -yes, you wondered where they had gone to? They're here still).

Hurricane Expert Pooh-Poohs Global Warming

2005: Five of seven major hurricanes made landfall and brought damages of well over 100 billion dollars of damage. You recall the names: Katrina, Dennis, Wilma, Rita and Emily. All fierce storms. Click HERE for a map of the 2005 season.

You then will easily remember the cries of how Global Warming are to blame. You will remember the dire predictions that "because of Global Warming, the 2006 hurricane season would be worse yet". Al Gore affirmed this to be true. Scores of media climatology "experts" insisted that all their models were indeed confirming that 2006 would be so much worse. Because of Global Warming. Because of mankind.

Well, the next "deadly" year came and went - with a whimper. No hurricanes came ashore. For those that bow to Al Gore's half baked theory, I'll state it in easy to understand terms: Nada, Zip, none, zero, 0, empty set, no way, zilch. Only four hurricanes gained a goodly amount of strength at all. Click HERE for the 2006 season map.

Yet again, we have direct evidence that the Global Warming "models" in use are politically skewed and do not resemble science. This should serve as a lesson, you would think. We simply CANNOT conclude that the Global Warming myth is valid. Especially when so many computer and climate models were outright wrong.

Dr. Chris Landsea, the Science and Operations Director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami has stated that the idea that global warming is causing an increase in hurricanes "is wrong and the statistics don't bear it out".

Of course, if you try to shine light on the truth, using science that is not funded by special interest grant money, you will be branded as a HERETIC. I fully expect a return to the Dark Ages is next... complete with lynchings and hate crime charges for the "anti-global warming" sinners.

Achtung! Achtung! WAS IST DAS? Scientist Gets Rebuked by Idiot Politician

It is happening. Politicians are now rebuking scientists - about science. The Governor of Delaware (Mrs. Ruth Ann Minner) has now issued an edict stating that the state's chief climatologist must remain silent about any of his concerns and accept "Global Warming". Sig Heil! Sig Heil!

Yet, in examination of Mrs. Minners biography, it is discovered that she has NOTHING MORE than a GED certificate. Hell, she never finished High School! (Click HERE for her CV). And yet... she is muzzling a person who has PhD in climatology and is the state's chief climate scientist. Talk about an outright moron! I simply cannot come up with enough bad words to describe such lunacy and arrogance and stupidity (Ok, Ok, one mention of Al Gore does it).

Shame on the people of Delaware for electing such a DOLT! That doesn't speak well about Delawarians, does it? Good luck with your idiot governor.

The hysteria and insanity is reaching fever pitch... I do fully expect that soon, anyone not kneeling down to the alter of Global Warming will be branded with Hate Crimes. It's coming...

Global Warming Hysteria - Has This Happened Before?

In reflecting upon the current Global Warming hysteria I have come to understand the role of Grant Money in this mix. Recall this brief history if you will.
  • Al Gore barely graduates from college - with a low C, or high D average.
  • Al Gore fails the Bar Exam and never becomes a real lawyer.
  • Al Gore claims that the novel, Love Story, is all about him. The author denies it.
  • Al Gore, the son of a politician and part owner of Occidental Petroleum, becomes Vice President.
  • Al Gore holds the purse strings to most all federal grant money and declares himself a science guru.
  • Al Gore decides to take over the US Navy Observatory in Washington DC and make it his home. Like he's some kind of astronomer scientist or something...
  • Al Gore invents the internet. All of humanity (except for the liberals in the media) snickers and begins to understand that Al Gore is insane.
  • Al Gore writes a book claiming that the Earth will boil away very shortly, and it's all our fault.
  • Grant money insures a predictable response from recipients.
And so, I would direct your attention this supurb article: Click HERE

Who is Michael Mann?

You may not know who Michael Mann is but without doubt you know his famous conclusion: "that the temperature increases that we have been experiencing are "likely to have been the largest of any century during the past 1,000 years" and that the "1990s was the warmest decade and 1998 the warmest year" of the millennium.

Mann's findings have been the most influential study in the swaying of public consensus since 2001. His views were adopted by the International Panel for Climate Change, the UN body that is organizing the worldwide effort to combat global warming.

But, along comes Dr. Edward Wegman. Dr. Wegman is a full professor at the Center for Computational Statistics at George Mason University. He is chair of the National Academy of Sciences' Committee on Applied and Theoretical Statistics. He is also on the board of the American Statistical Association. Suffice it to say... he is one of the few statisticians in the world that has such a stellar CVs.

Dr. Wegman was asked to validate the statistical work of Michael Mann. In short - to validate the findings that has sparked almost a decade of hysteria.

Dr. Wegman found that Michael Mann had made a simple and basic error. Dr. Wegman stated that the errors found: "may be easily overlooked by someone not trained in statistical methodology." He continues: "This small group of climate scientists were working on their own, largely in isolation, and without the academic scrutiny needed to ferret out false assumptions."

Dr. Wegman continues: "Worse, the problem also applied more generally, to the broader climate-change and meteorological community, which also relied on statistical techniques in their studies.

Dr. Wegman, in conclusion, has determined that simple statistical mistakes were made. Yes, peer reviews were accomplished he says but no one once thought to check the math. As a result, Dr. Wegman regards these earth shattering results as "not accurate" and should be taken with a grain of salt.

Sadly, these results have ignited a firestorm of hysteria from the United Nations to the paperboy on the street corner.

Astrophysicist States Facts - Humans Not Responsible

Astrophysicist Dr. Nir Shariv, one of the worlds top young scientists, declares that there may be a gentle warming but humans have NOTHING to do with it. Dr. Shariv admits he initially followed the "faulty logic" that everyone else has followed - until he took a good long look.

He has recanted: "Like many others, I was personally sure that CO2 is the bad culprit in the story of global warming. But after carefully digging into the evidence, I realized that things are far more complicated than the story sold to us by many climate scientists or the stories regurgitated by the media. In fact, there is much more than meets the eye."

Claude Allegre, Renowned World Geophysicist Says "No Global Warming"

Dr. Claude Allegre, a highly decorated geophysicist, has stepped forward and stated that he no longer believes that "global warming" is occurring. He stated: "studies show that Antarctic snowfall rate has been stable over the past 30 years and the continent is actually gaining ice." This is in contrast to the hysterical global warming alarmists (99.9% who are NOT scientists) who believe that the ice caps are melting.

Allegre is a member of both the French and U.S. Academy of Sciences and has written more than 100 scientific articles, 11 books and been awarded numerous scientific kudos including the Goldschmidt Medal from the Geochemical Society of the United States.

Interestingly, twenty years ago Allegre wrote: "By burning fossil fuels, man enhanced the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which has raised the global mean temperature by half a degree in the last century."

Allegre now states that those "conclusions" were wrong, scientific evidence now indicates otherwise.

AAAS Jointly Blames Humans for Global Warming - We're All Gonna Die

Now there is a big push from a "scientific society" called AAAS - publishing a unanimous statement that humans are causing global warming.

I went to the AAAS site... well, what a shock. ANYBODY can join AAAS. Here's what it is: "an international non-profit organization dedicated to advancing science around the world by serving as an educator, leader, spokesperson and professional association.".

Well... the NRA is a "professional" organization too. So is the NBA and AARP. AAAS sells magazines, takes in money, and is a politically active organization - much like AARP or the NRA, one could argue.

Credibility? About as much as any publisher with a primary mission to SELL things.

Just MORE insane hysteria from an organization that ANYONE in the WORLD can belong to.

SLAM! Five Meteorologists Step Up and Say NO to Global Warming!

Five meteorologists (not just TV weather people) have stepped up to the plate in Cleveland. Mark Johnson, Dick Goddard, Mark Nolan, Jon Laufman, and former Cleveland weatherman Don Webster have stated that they do not accept the current global warming hysteria. They also do not believe that it is our fault or that we should panic.

"We have maybe 100 years of data on a rock that's 6 billion years old," said Johnson, a WEWS Channel 5 weatherman. "Mother Nature tends to even herself out, and the fact is, the Earth is cyclical."

AMEN!!

Ohio State Researchers Discover that Global Warming Climate Models are Wrong

Temperatures in Antarctica simply did NOT climb as had been stated and predicted by the Global Warming "alarmists". Dr. David Bromwich, a professor of atmospheric sciences from Ohio State, states: "The best we can say right now is that the climate models are inconsistent with the evidence that we have for the last 50 years from continental Antarctica."

In other words... no global warming.

News Flash

Date: 13 FEB 07
The US House hearing on "Global Warming" was canceled today. Due to an ice and snow storm with freezing rain. The meeting is to be scheduled at a later date... presumably they will wait for a hot July day.


 

Scientist Discovers that Greenlands Glaciers are Not Melting as Expected

A new study, conducted by Ian Howat, a scientist with the University of Colorado's National Snow and Ice Data Center and also with the University of Washington's Applied Physics Lab, has revealed that two of Greenland's biggest glaciers have been melting at inconsistent rates. Most importantly, not at an increased rate as has been incorrectly stated by several news reporters and politicians.

Professor Howat has discovered that the glaciers shrank rapidly (dumping huge amounts of ice into the sea during a period of less than a year between 2004 and 2005). However, two years later, they returned to near their previous rates of melt and discharge. Bottom line: short term observations do not yield long term predictions - and that glaciers may melt then rebuild in a variable manner. The research is online in the journal Science Express.

Global Warming: The Cold, Hard Facts?

Global Warming is not due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide
Monday, February 5, 2007

Global Warming, as we think we know it, doesn't exist. And I am not the only one trying to make people open up their eyes and see the truth. But few listen, despite the fact that I was the first Canadian Ph.D. in Climatology and I have an extensive background in climatology, especially the reconstruction of past climates and the impact of climate change on human history and the human condition.“Few listen, even though I have a Ph.D, (Doctor of Science) from the University of London, England and was a climatology professor at the University of Winnipeg.” . For some reason (actually for many), the World is not listening. Here is why.

What would happen if tomorrow we were told that, after all, the Earth is flat? It would probably be the most important piece of news in the media and would generate a lot of debate. So why is it that when scientists who have studied the Global Warming phenomenon for years say that humans are not the cause nobody listens? Why does no one acknowledge that the Emperor has no clothes on?

Believe it or not, Global Warming is not due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This in fact is the greatest deception in the history of science. We are wasting time, energy and trillions of dollars while creating unnecessary fear and consternation over an issue with no scientific justification. For example, Environment Canada brags about spending $3.7 billion in the last five years dealing with climate change almost all on propaganda trying to defend an indefensible scientific position while at the same time closing weather stations and failing to meet legislated pollution targets.

No sensible person seeks conflict, especially with governments, but if we don't pursue the truth, we are lost as individuals and as a society. That is why I insist on saying that there is no evidence that we are, or could ever cause global climate change. And, recently, Yuri A. Izrael, Vice President of the United Nations sponsored Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirmed this statement. So how has the world come to believe that something is wrong?

Maybe for the same reason we believed, 30 years ago, that global cooling was the biggest threat: a matter of faith. "It is a cold fact: the Global Cooling presents humankind with the most important social, political, and adaptive challenge we have had to deal with for ten thousand years. Your stake in the decisions we make concerning it is of ultimate importance; the survival of ourselves, our children, our species," wrote Lowell Ponte in 1976.

I was as opposed to the threats of impending doom global cooling engendered as I am to the threats made about Global Warming. Let me stress I am not denying the phenomenon has occurred. The world has warmed since 1680, the nadir of a cool period called the Little Ice Age (LIA) that has generally continued to the present. These climate changes are well within natural variability and explained quite easily by changes in the sun. But there is nothing unusual going on.

Since I obtained my doctorate in climatology from the University of London, Queen Mary College, England my career has spanned two climate cycles. Temperatures declined from 1940 to 1980 and in the early 1970's global cooling became the consensus. This proves that consensus is not a scientific fact. By the 1990's temperatures appeared to have reversed and Global Warming became the consensus. It appears I'll witness another cycle before retiring, as the major mechanisms and the global temperature trends now indicate a cooling.

No doubt passive acceptance yields less stress, fewer personal attacks and makes career progress easier. What I have experienced in my personal life during the last years makes me understand why most people choose not to speak out; job security and fear of reprisals. Even in University, where free speech and challenge to prevailing wisdoms are supposedly encouraged, academics remain silent.

I once received a three page letter that my lawyer defined as libellous, from an academic colleague, saying I had no right to say what I was saying, especially in public lectures. Sadly, my experience is that universities are the most dogmatic and oppressive places in our society. This becomes progressively worse as they receive more and more funding from governments that demand a particular viewpoint.

In another instance, I was accused by Canadian environmentalist David Suzuki of being paid by oil companies. That is a lie. Apparently he thinks if the fossil fuel companies pay you have an agenda. So if Greenpeace, Sierra Club or governments pay there is no agenda and only truth and enlightenment?

Personal attacks are difficult and shouldn't occur in a debate in a civilized society. I can only consider them from what they imply. They usually indicate a person or group is losing the debate. In this case, they also indicate how political the entire Global Warming debate has become. Both underline the lack of or even contradictory nature of the evidence.

I am not alone in this journey against the prevalent myth. Several well-known names have also raised their voices. Michael Crichton, the scientist, writer and filmmaker is one of them. In his latest book, "State of Fear" he takes time to explain, often in surprising detail, the flawed science behind Global Warming and other imagined environmental crises.

Another cry in the wildenerness is Richard Lindzen's. He is an atmospheric physicist and a professor of meteorology at MIT, renowned for his research in dynamic meteorology - especially atmospheric waves. He is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences and has held positions at the University of Chicago, Harvard University and MIT. Linzen frequently speaks out against the notion that significant Global Warming is caused by humans. Yet nobody seems to listen.

I think it may be because most people don't understand the scientific method which Thomas Kuhn so skilfully and briefly set out in his book "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions." A scientist makes certain assumptions and then produces a theory which is only as valid as the assumptions. The theory of Global Warming assumes that CO2 is an atmospheric greenhouse gas and as it increases temperatures rise. It was then theorized that since humans were producing more CO2 than before, the temperature would inevitably rise. The theory was accepted before testing had started, and effectively became a law.

As Lindzen said many years ago: "the consensus was reached before the research had even begun." Now, any scientist who dares to question the prevailing wisdom is marginalized and called a sceptic, when in fact they are simply being good scientists. This has reached frightening levels with these scientists now being called climate change denier with all the holocaust connotations of that word. The normal scientific method is effectively being thwarted.

Meanwhile, politicians are being listened to, even though most of them have no knowledge or understanding of science, especially the science of climate and climate change. Hence, they are in no position to question a policy on climate change when it threatens the entire planet. Moreover, using fear and creating hysteria makes it very difficult to make calm rational decisions about issues needing attention.

Until you have challenged the prevailing wisdom you have no idea how nasty people can be. Until you have re-examined any issue in an attempt to find out all the information, you cannot know how much misinformation exists in the supposed age of information.

I was greatly influenced several years ago by Aaron Wildavsky's book "Yes, but is it true?" The author taught political science at a New York University and realized how science was being influenced by and apparently misused by politics. He gave his graduate students an assignment to pursue the science behind a policy generated by a highly publicised environmental concern. To his and their surprise they found there was little scientific evidence, consensus and justification for the policy. You only realize the extent to which Wildavsky's findings occur when you ask the question he posed. Wildavsky's students did it in the safety of academia and with the excuse that it was an assignment. I have learned it is a difficult question to ask in the real world, however I firmly believe it is the most important question to ask if we are to advance in the right direction.

(Thanks David!)


 

Gore's Sanity in Question

President of Czech Republic Calls Man-Made Global Warming a 'Myth' - Questions Gore's Sanity

Mon Feb 12 2007 09:10:09 ET

Czech president Vaclav Klaus has criticized the UN panel on global warming, claiming that it was a political authority without any scientific basis.

In an interview with "Hospodárské noviny", a Czech economics daily, Klaus answered a few questions:

Q: IPCC has released its report and you say that the global warming is a false myth. How did you get this idea, Mr President?•

A: It's not my idea. Global warming is a false myth and every serious person and scientist says so. It is not fair to refer to the U.N. panel. IPCC is not a scientific institution: it's a political body, a sort of non-government organization of green flavor. It's neither a forum of neutral scientists nor a balanced group of scientists. These people are politicized scientists who arrive there with a one-sided opinion and a one-sided assignment. Also, it's an undignified slapstick that people don't wait for the full report in May 2007 but instead respond, in such a serious way, to the summary for policymakers where all the "but's" are scratched, removed, and replaced by oversimplified theses.• This is clearly such an incredible failure of so many people, from journalists to politicians. If the European Commission is instantly going to buy such a trick, we have another very good reason to think that the countries themselves, not the Commission, should be deciding about similar issues.•

Q: How do you explain that there is no other comparably senior statesman in Europe who would advocate this viewpoint? No one else has such strong opinions...•

A: My opinions about this issue simply are strong. Other top-level politicians do not express their global warming doubts because a whip of political correctness strangles their voice.

• Q: But you're not a climate scientist. Do you have a sufficient knowledge and enough information?•

A: Environmentalism as a metaphysical ideology and as a worldview has absolutely nothing to do with natural sciences or with the climate. Sadly, it has nothing to do with social sciences either. Still, it is becoming fashionable and this fact scares me. The second part of the sentence should be: we also have lots of reports, studies, and books of climatologists whose conclusions are diametrally opposite.• Indeed, I never measure the thickness of ice in Antarctica. I really don't know how to do it and don't plan to learn it. However, as a scientifically oriented person, I know how to read science reports about these questions, for example about ice in Antarctica. I don't have to be a climate scientist myself to read them. And inside the papers I have read, the conclusions we may see in the media simply don't appear. But let me promise you something: this topic troubles me which is why I started to write an article about it last Christmas. The article expanded and became a book. In a couple of months, it will be published. One chapter out of seven will organize my opinions about the climate change.• Environmentalism and green ideology is something very different from climate science. Various findings and screams of scientists are abused by this ideology.•

Q: How do you explain that conservative media are skeptical while the left-wing media view the global warming as a done deal?•

A: It is not quite exactly divided to the left-wingers and right-wingers. Nevertheless it's obvious that environmentalism is a new incarnation of modern leftism.•

Q: If you look at all these things, even if you were right ...•

A: ...I am right...•

Q: Isn't there enough empirical evidence and facts we can see with our eyes that imply that Man is demolishing the planet and himself?•

A: It's such a nonsense that I have probably not heard a bigger nonsense yet.•

Q: Don't you believe that we're ruining our planet?•

A: I will pretend that I haven't heard you. Perhaps only Mr Al Gore may be saying something along these lines: a sane person can't. I don't see any ruining of the planet, I have never seen it, and I don't think that a reasonable and serious person could say such a thing. Look: you represent the economic media so I expect a certain economical erudition from you. My book will answer these questions. For example, we know that there exists a huge correlation between the care we give to the environment on one side and the wealth and technological prowess on the other side. It's clear that the poorer the society is, the more brutally it behaves with respect to Nature, and vice versa.• It's also true that there exist social systems that are damaging Nature - by eliminating private ownership and similar things - much more than the freer societies. These tendencies become important in the long run. They unambiguously imply that today, on February 8th, 2007, Nature is protected uncomparably more than on February 8th ten years ago or fifty years ago or one hundred years ago.• That's why I ask: how can you pronounce the sentence you said? Perhaps if you're unconscious? Or did you mean it as a provocation only? And maybe I am just too naive and I allowed you to provoke me to give you all these answers, am I not? It is more likely that you actually believe what you say.

Global Warming is a Myth

When politicians and journalists declare that the science of global warming is settled, they show a regrettable ignorance about how science works. We were treated to another dose of it recently when the experts of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued the Summary for Policymakers that puts the political spin on an unfinished scientific dossier on climate change due for publication in a few months’ time. They declared that most of the rise in temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to man-made greenhouse gases.

The small print explains “very likely” as meaning that the experts who made the judgment felt 90% sure about it. Older readers may recall a press conference at Harwell in 1958 when Sir John Cockcroft, Britain’s top nuclear physicist, said he was 90% certain that his lads had achieved controlled nuclear fusion. It turned out that he was wrong. More positively, a 10% uncertainty in any theory is a wide open breach for any latterday Galileo or Einstein to storm through with a better idea. That is how science really works.

Enthusiasm for the global-warming scare also ensures that heatwaves make headlines, while contrary symptoms, such as this winter’s billion-dollar loss of Californian crops to unusual frost, are relegated to the business pages. The early arrival of migrant birds in spring provides colourful evidence for a recent warming of the northern lands. But did anyone tell you that in east Antarctica the Adélie penguins and Cape petrels are turning up at their spring nesting sites around nine days later than they did 50 years ago? While sea-ice has diminished in the Arctic since 1978, it has grown by 8% in the Southern Ocean.

Truth - Why it SHOULD be Warming Gently

"Human beings have never experienced the earth's normal climate. For most of it's 4.6 billion year old existance , the planet has been inhospitably hot or dry and utterly devoid of glacial ice. Only seven times have major ice eras, avergaing roughly 50 MILLION years in length, introduced relatively cooler temperatures; humankind arose during the most recent of these periods."

"When the Pleistocene ice epoch began about 2.4 million years ago, advancing ice sheets marked the onset of obe of the coldest climatic interludes experienced on earth. These periods of especially vigorous glacial advances (COLD) are known as the ice ages."

"The most recent ice age began about 120,000 years ago... It reached it's bitter extreme (COLD) some 50,000 years later, slowly moderated, then brought severe cold again about 18,000 years ago. In the last 10,000 years (The Holocene Interglacial) three sustained cold spells sent temperatures below the geologically current global average (past 10,000 years)."

A gentle and gradual warming trend has occurred since then.

The Nine Lies about Global Warming.

By: Ray Evans
People who know that they are morally superior to the rest of mankind are often
tempted to ignore the moral norms on which Western civilisation depends. One of
the most important of these rules is telling the truth.

The Nonsense behind Global Warming

Some years ago a British newspaper arranged a square-off between a meteorologist, an astrologer and a woman with corns, to see who could best predict the weather. The woman with corns won.

In almost every newspaper around the world and at least once a week, some report surfaces suggesting we stay worried in the light of latest figures and analyses. Not only is Global Warming occurring, we are assured, but it is now accelerating at some alarming rate and pretty soon the poles will have all melted, the sealevels will have risen and all low-lying atolls and seaside villages will be covered over with this calamitous rising tide. And apparently this gigantic catastrophe is due to human behaviour.

British Media Hits Hysterical High Point

British media continues to fuel the Global Warming myth with ever increasing hysteria. Here is an article about Polar Bears, seen on floating ice flows... an ordinary, common experience since the emergence of the Polar Bear. Yet in full blown hysteria, British Media screams "GLOBAL WARMING", WE'RE ALL GONNA BOIL AWAY NEXT WEEK!!!!

Scientists Offered Cash if they can PROVE Global Warming

Scientists and economists have been offered $10,000 each by a lobby group funded by one of the world's largest oil companies to undermine a major climate change report due to be published today. Travel expenses and additional payments were also offered.

A UN report was written by international experts and is widely regarded as the most comprehensive review yet of climate change science. It will underpin international negotiations on new emissions targets to succeed the Kyoto agreement, the first phase of which expires in 2012. World governments were given a draft last year and invited to comment.

The letters, sent to scientists in Britain, the US and elsewhere, attack the UN's panel as "resistant to reasonable criticism and dissent and prone to summary conclusions that are poorly supported by the analytical work" and ask for essays that "thoughtfully explore the limitations of climate model outputs".

Global Warming Creating More F5 Tornadoes

A most interesting tidbit of information... which will, without doubt, fuel the Global Warming alarmists. In reviewing the severe damage in central Florida, several meteorologists, this morning, have stated that the Fujitu Scale has just been remapped.
In effect, this remapping will have previous F3s, and F4s, described now as F5s. Two meteorologists (one being Janis Dean of Fox) stated that this will yield what will appear to be far more F5 tornadoes. To those not understanding this remapping, they will claim that Global Warming is creating a lot more F4 and F5 tornadoes when in fact, the scale has just been remapped. Perhaps on purpose... to support hysteria?

I predict we will see a lot more F4 and F5 tornadoes and that this will fire up the global warming activitists as "proof". Doggone slight of hand...

Antarctic Ice Sheet Growing - Despite Art Bell's Claim it is Shrinking

Art Bell, the imminent "Climatology Professor - NOT" claims that the ice sheets are shrinking and that we are all doomed by his invented "Quickening".

Real scientists however, claim the ice mass is growing.

"Wingham et al. report that "overall, the data, corrected for isostatic rebound, show the ice sheet growing at 5 ± 1 mm year-1."

Misleading Headlines

"Oct 12, 2003. All seven glaciers on California's Mount Shasta'sare growing,
says Slawek Tulaczyk, a glaciologist at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
This includes three-mile-long Whitney, the state's largest. Not only are the
glaciers growing, three of them have doubled in size since 1950. Meanwhile,
seven smaller glaciers in California's Sierra Nevadas are smaller than they
were 100 years ago."


Written by Usha Lee McFarling at the Los Angeles Times, October 2003.

The Headline for this article read: "Sierra Glaciers in Rapid Retreat."

Go figure...


 

AMAZING! Glaciers are Growing!

The BIG CHILL Instead?

"In thirty years time they say Britain’s summers could be like the South of France. By the end of the century we could be as hot as Greece. This they say is what global warming could bring us. But a growing number of scientists believe we could have our future climate completely wrong."

"You could expect to see sea ice off the coast of South East England, probably several miles off shore."

Record LOW Temperatures in the US

Despite the "warming hooplah" (mostly driven by British Newspapers/Publications and Al Gore admirers), the US has broken LOW TEMPERATURE records (quite the opposite of what you would expect from a Global Warming).
