The truth about global warming - it's the Sun that's to blame

They should have asked me. I figured this out some time ago...

Yes, but they probably got paid to tell them, that is the real key to this.

"Dr Solanki said that the brighter Sun and higher levels of "greenhouse gases", such as carbon dioxide, both contributed to the change in the Earth's temperature but it was impossible to say which had the greater impact."

This statement buried way down in paragraph four apparently was not read by the author of the first paragraph nor the headliner.

Don't you know Halliburton has been hiding the technology for years? Its right next to the hoverboards they never released to the public.

WHY IT'S GETTING WARM
Tune: "Riders on the Storm"

Why it's getting warm
Why it's getting warm
Is it hotter than the norm
Or just turning back to form
Gore would sound the warning horn
And make cars that run on corn
Why it's getting warm

There's an inconsistent flaw
In his scientific law
There's not one single cause
For why an iceberg thaws
The conclusion that he draws
Is giving us guffaws
An inconsistent flaw

Gore, you incoherent goof
Gore, you incoherent goof
It doesn't take a sleuth
To see your lack of proof
Here's an inconvenient truth
It's still freezing in Duluth
You incoherent goof

Why it's getting warm
Why it's getting warm
Is it hotter than the norm
Or just turning back to form
Gore would sound the warning horn
And make cars that run on corn
Why it's getting warm

Why it's getting warm
Why it's getting warm . . .

So, the sun is causing social engineers to think earth's regional climates are changing?

[gathersnomoss]

The earth needs shades.

If we attacked at night, we would not need any shielding- we can strike fast and get out, Mission Accomplished!

Dr. Solanski said that the climate changes of the past 20 years (up to 2004) cannot be explained by the solar brightness.

[cogitator]

Why are peopple suddenly posting articles that are 6 or 8 or 2 years old? Because they think they're suddenly more relevant?

[gcruse]

"increased solar brightness over the past 20 years" "The earth needs shades."

Not so fast, pardners.

Global dimming is the gradual reduction in the amount of global direct irradiance at the Earth's surface, observed since the beginning of systematic measurements in 1950s. The effect varies by location, but worldwide it is of the order of a 4% reduction over the three decades from 1960–1990. This trend may have reversed during the past decade. Global dimming creates a cooling effect that may have partially masked the effect of greenhouse gases on global warming.

invade and destroy the Sun

Woudn't our troops burn up as they approach the sun? What body armor will they need?

[Moseley] Couldn't they wrap themselves in copies of the Kyoto Treaty? I thought the Kyoto Treaty defeated global warming.

Scafetta & West, Jun-Sep 2006: The sun might have contributed approximately 50% of the observed global warming since 1900.

Quoting Scafetta in Sept 2005: "I think it is important to correct the climate models so that they include reliable sensitivity to solar activity. Once that is done, then it will be possible to better understand what has happened during the past hundred years."

Wow! Thanks!

Bump.
