Prominent Scientists Reverse Belief in Man-made Global Warming - Now Skeptics

All you need to know about global warming is that its biggest fear monger claimed to have:

1) invented the Internet, and

2)been the inspiration for Eric Segal's novel (and adapted movie) "Love Story."

Both of these preposterous assertions have long since been disproved.

Al Gore is a delusional moron.

To have Al Gore win an Oscar for a bogus documentary film about man-made global warming is the ultimate incarnation of bullshit.

Hollywood and Al Gore are a perfect marriage- the ultimate make-believe.

Hip waders won't keep it off you when Al Gore goes Hollywood.

Al Gore is to climatology as Bill Clinton is to gynecology.

The nail in the coffin of this global warming/CO2 nonsense came when Svensmark did his study and experiment on intergalactic cosmic rays which proved that those rays cause low level clouds to form. The solar wind cause those rays to be lessened in our atmosphere. And that is the condition that we currently have. The temperature of the Earth dropped 2.7°F from 1940 to 1975 and it has been rising since then. There is nothing we can do about it, nor should we.

We will soon get to the point where Global Warming advocates start to admit that we “can’t be sure” that Global Warming is happening

Global Warming is a fact. It's Anthropogenic Global Warming that is nonsense. I know many posters on FR use GW rather than AGW as a form of shorthand. However the world really does seem to be in one of its periodic warming periods at the moment - so we should be careful to frame the debate on the correct grounds.

Global Warming is all about money and distributing money.

Its a scam. We are going to pay one day for carbon Credits. I dont doubt that in the least. Its BS,but we are going to pay it. We are going to get that shoved right in our backs to the hilt.

Check out Duncan Hunter’s interview in thenewamerican.com. He is the only one that understands the need to reverse this nonsense.

Carbon dioxide lags temperature increase rather than being a cause of global warming. From the article you linked to:

Water covers 71 per cent of the surface of the planet. As compared to the atmosphere, there's at least a hundred times more CO2 in the oceans, dissolved as carbonate.

As the postglacial thaw progresses the oceans warm up, and some of the dissolved carbon emits into the atmosphere, just like fizz in soda water taken out of the fridge.

"So the greenhouse global warming theory has it ass backwards," Hertzberg concludes. "It is the warming of the earth that is causing the increase of carbon dioxide and not the reverse."

He has recently had vivid confirmation of that conclusion. Several new papers show that for the last three quarter million years CO2 changes always lag global temperatures by 800 to 2,600 years.

Instead of Anthropogenic, how about "human caused"? One fewer letter, even if you count the space, and most people will know what the heck you're talking about.

Intelligence chief OK's global warming study ($48Bil in Intel budget to study global warming)

Are you sure that headline is correct? 48 billion sounds like the entire budget for the CIA, not for a study.

Allegre, who was one of the first scientists to sound global warming fears 20 years ago, now says the cause of climate change is “unknown” and accused the “prophets of doom of global warming” of being motivated by money, noting that “the ecology of helpless protesting has become a very lucrative business for some people!”
<<

The left screams bloody murder if Big Pharma or Big Tobacco publishes any research about the safety of their products, citing obvious conflicts of interest.

But there is no conflict of interest when Big Grants and Big University and Big Government fund research on climate change that leads to an endless stream of more grants, and more laws to restrict citizens and increase the size of bureaucracies.

No conflict at all.

and when preachy dipsh*ts like Laurie David became ill-informed spokespersons.

[Wolfie]

Honestly, I don’t think it matters. I’m guessing some pretty big movers and shakers are posititioned to greatly profit from this BS, and we’re going to have it shoved down our throats one way or another.

We are already paying. It is pure dissipation and about as productive as burning money. In fact, it is a form of burning money. Global Warming is the General Madness of the present age.

Exactly right, Tom; it’s a $48B INTEL budget that includes a provision for an NIE on GW.

"the ecology of helpless protesting has become a very lucrative business for some people!"

Great line and very true. Looks like the envirowackos house of cards is starting to topple.

[Red Badger]

Damn! And I was gonna invest in pineapple plantations in the Dakotas!.........

[Humble Servant]

Most excellent. Printing many copies now, to go to GW-panicked friends & family.

Why didn’t I get this BEFORE the postal rates went up?

[Red Badger]

Global Warming is the General Madness of the present age.

So true. It has happened before. Tulip Madness, Halleys Comet Hysteria, French Revolution & the Reign of Terror, Beatlemania.......

never, EVER shake hands with Sheryl Crowe.

Wouldn’t it be hilarious if the CIA came back with an estimate that says: anthropogenic global warming is a crock, the mild warming we’re experience is not tied to CO2 increases and that the warming overall will save lives. Just wondering if that’s the reason the Admiral agreed.
