Global Warming Panel to Earth's Rescue, on the UN's Dime?
Human Events ^ | 7/24/2011 | Rachel Marsden

Hundreds of United Nations global warming scientists have just met in France via Earth-destroying air travel, ironically at a time of unseasonably cool temperatures across France, to once again justify their funding. Apparently the overall temperature of Earth is set to maybe rise 4 degrees Fahrenheit within the next hundred years. And you can bet that when climate scientists get together to discuss “solutions” to these hypothetical “problems,” it means they’re going to come up with ways to make humans suffer for being jerks to the planet.

According to the website for the group—known as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)—they’re focused on “risk management and the framing of a response through both adaptation and mitigation.” It’s new focus compared with previous reports. A sign, perhaps, that they’ve given up on stopping livestock from passing flatulence—the primary source of climate change gas—and accepted our pending doom at the hands of our farting overlords.

I have not seen many things posted by Rachel on FR so I thought I would post this one for starters. She shows wit and wisdom I think.

We will need pictures of course so:

After 10 years of studious, unbiased research (I receive no money from any group for my research) I have come to thefollowin conclusion. First, let me say, my knowledge of climate change is equal to, if not greater than any scientist working on the IPCC report, since I am unbiased.

My conclusions are as follows. One, the reason the climate has reportedly heated up over the twenty five years is due to the reduction of atmospheric carbon that shielded the earth from the harmful rays of the sun. Volcanoes, burning of fossil fuels, animal flatulence is all part of nature and gives humanity natural protection.

In the burning of fossil fuels, the byproduct of developing energy from natural resources is natural. The mode of creating the byproduct is also natural as it was technology given to man by it’s creator.

As was seen in the 70’s by a Time magazine headline, the earth was coolng. The only change that could be determined in the warming of the earth from that time forward, was the reduction of energy production from the burning of fossil fuels. In addition, the EPA regulations placed on the energy industry to reduce fossil fuel use actually increased temperatures of the earth by 1 degee.

It has been determined that the increased pace of reducing fossil fuel use, from both coal and oil, will actually heat the earth to unmanageable levels within the next 5-10 years. Recently, my theories and tests have been coorborated by independent scientists who have also determined that the natural carbon emissions from energy production are in fact providing a protective blanket of the earth from the harmful rays of the sun. Also confirming this scientific conclusion is the recent increase of SPF the EPA has forced upon the companies that manufacture sun block.

To immediatetly correct this problem, I have come up with a 3 point plan. 1. Open up the coastlines in North America and ANWAR for immediate oil exploration. Also, immediately lift the regulations preventing the drilling in the gulf. 2. All monies being provided for alternative energy production be diverted to coal companies so that cleaner energy from coal can be produced. The extra funding will be used to research how (valves) could be created to regulate the dispersal of carbon in the atmosphere. This will be the crux of the keepng the planet at a consistent temperature.

Finally, all government regulation on the energy industry be repealed and all taxes from companies and individuals paying into green techology projects be removed.

Total cost to protect the earth? Zero. If we keep going at this pace? All of humanity will be destroyed. This is why we need to do this tomorrow, because if we don’t, there will be no day after tomorrow.

Marsden became infamous in Canada, starting in 1997 — when she made false sexual harassment charges against her swimming coach. Turns out she was actually harassing the coach. The coach went through hell for months (think of the experience of the Duke lacrosse team, when they were falsly accused).

Here's a little synopsis from Wikipedia:

“Marsden first came to public attention for her role in the Simon Fraser University 1997 harassment controversy, and was the focus of media coverage for tumultuous breakups with a Vancouver radio host, an Ontario police officer, and the co-founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales.”

No matter what she's done since, nor what political leanings she professes — I can't help but think of her as unstable, malicious and wacky.

Canada eh. Seems like they like to come up with things to discredit conservative types all the time, e.g. Mark Steyn. Anyway, you believe everything you read in wikipedia?

I will take what a person writes or says and access it as it squares with the truth. Simple as that. Injecting a litter humor and sarcasm also is a plus and mostly only seen on the right.

The incidents I referred to were big news here in Canada, for several months. I only included the Wikipedia reference for the convenience of others — that was the first I'd seen it myself.

If it had been just one incident, you could chalk it up to a case of a young woman being overcome by emotions. However, the first incident lasted for months; and nearly ruined the life of an innocent man. She never showed any remorse for that prolonged torture. Then there were the other incidents.

It's not a matter of “discrediting conservative types” — it's a matter of being selective about whom you allow to be spokespersons for conservatism.

I don't know Ms. Marsden personally — and I don't want to engage in character assassination. I'm simply reporting what most Canadians over 30 know about her.

Hey Rachel, the UN doesn’t have a dime. It’s Other People’s Money.
