Climate Change: Reputable scientists now say the long-term threat to climate is severe cooling, not rising temperatures. In fact, our carbon emissions may just have prevented the next ice age.
Chicken Little may have to be measured for a winter coat, if the observations of R. Timothy Patterson, professor of geology and director of the Ottawa-Carleton Geoscience Centre of Canada's Carleton University, are accurate. Writing in Toronto's National Post, Patterson reported on his research that involved analysis of core samples of more than 5,000 years of mud recovered from the bottom of Western Canada's fjords.
In summary, his research showed "a direct correlation between variations in the brightness of the sun and earthly climate indicators (called proxies)." Patterson notes that hundreds of other studies using proxies from tree rings in Russia's Kola Peninsula to water levels of the Nile show exactly the same thing.

This guy most be a kook! He disagrees with the UN!!?? /sarcasm
listen. warming, cooling, it was 50/50... so i took a shot!!!
Ted Danson will be thrilled,back in the early 90’s that clown doctor had us ice skating all year round.
It wouldn’t bother me.
It would be worth the look on Algore’s face as his butt is turned to ice!!!
Not only does he disagree with the UN but he also disagrees with Rolling Stone magazine! I saw one yesterday on a magazine stand and it’s cover is awash with how the Administrations is lying about global warming. I guess a responsible, intellectual and informative mag like Rolling Stone knows what’s REALLY going on, huh? It did give me a giggle.
I suspect some interesting ideas on how to hold back the ice would arise.
Shhh...don’t tell Heidi, the little weather gnome on The Weather Channel. She is a fervent believer in Gore’s Gospel.
Would everyone who really needs something else to worry about please raise your hand?
Heidi needs a dunkey punch.
I quit watching the Weather channel, but was a frequent viewer. They have lost my confidence now. If they are so far off on one aspect, who can trust their 5-day forecast?
But I gave Ya'all the Internet, didn't I?
but what have you done for me lately???
There are more pregnancies on the Weather Channel set than in all the Section 8 projects in Philadelphia.
Do they put fertility drugs in the office water cooler there?
Well, I NEVER KNEW I had a 'Footprint' till AG 'educated' ne.
Without AG, I never would have known I was the most destructive organism on the planet.
It's sad, but there it is. When you politicize science, the chicken little effect takes over and no one can believe anything you say...even when you're telling the truth.
The internet has radar images and a 10 day forecast from at least three different sites...but I do miss the weather babes...Hey Weather Channel? The internet has that sort of eye candy, too!
It’s that guy Jim ? who does the Storm Story series — he’s very active.....
What a classic Gore look! The look on his daughter’s face suggests she has heard his same old BS and here he is spouting it again. Love it.
and in a perverse way, global warming zealots are counting on this solar minimum effect so they can say, "see? our efforts are working!"
Meteorlogy was my former life and the Weather Channel was always my morning briefing before my shift began in the afternoon in preparation for the evening weathercasts. When they got the current producer they got the left leaning outlook that grips the whole operation there now. I am certain there are some of the old timers and thoughtful newbies at the WC that chafe at this leftist pablum that is spewed on us daily. It has been eons since I even stopped on the WC while channel surfing. Pity, it was a great program and a comfortable place to view at any time of the day. Are you listening Weather Channel?
Back when John Hope was there (the WWII Meteorologist who was the hurricane expert) I suspected he was the culprit but the trend has not only continued after his untimely death at age 80-something but has accelerated. So is this and indication that the babes are right or left leaning?
Ah, sweet Jill Brown!! I miss her still. She was the best Wx girl I’ve ever seen and she was totally hot to boot.
What?? Global Warming has to be true. I read about it in Sports Illustrated last year. /s
The sky is falling.....the sky is falling!!!!!
No, wait, the snow is falling......the snow is falling!!!!!
Okay, nevermind.....
Of course, this guy will be beheaded for heresy by Al Gore.
Such as putting a large mirror in earth orbit?
