Has the global warming alarmism movement hit its apex? Maybe so. In recent weeks, we've seen a resurgence of hard scientists who have come out strongly against the warm-mongers, the latest of which is Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change member John R. Christy who in an editorial in today's Wall Street Journal tells the world that not only does he not believe no one's proven humans cause global warming, he's refusing his "share" of the Nobel Peace Prize that he was awarded because it was based on a misunderstanding of science.

I thought it was the UN that was awarded the prize. I bet they don’t reject it.

...especially when I consider how difficult it is to accurately predict that system's behavior over the next five days.

In a nutshell............

Oh, thank you. Reason prevails. I have letters going back and forth between relatives from North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Missouri for two hundred years that talk about unseasonably warm winters, deaths caused by years where mosquitos didn’t die, influenza (which they believed was caused by the warm winters). We were farmers. We lived by the weather. I thought the world of science had lost its minds. Phew!

My grandmother was a rancher. The woman talked about the weather not because it was a cliche and known nuetral topic that wouldn’t insult anyone. She was interested! She noticed if it hadn’t rained for 24 days or if there hadn’t been a freeze November, etc., etc. . . .

It has been falling apart for years. Its just that now with real science and those who adhere to scientific inquiry speaking out in force with facts, the post modern scientists are being embarrassed by their collective lack of integrity.

True Scientists cannot endorse the global warming wackos. IF they did they would be throwing everything they learned in school in the trash can.
