Talk about shallow sciene — global warming has not been disproved. In fact, I would say that global warming is a pretty well-established scientific fact. And so is global cooling a pretty well-established scientific fact.
What is *not* an established scientific fact and is, in fact, scientifically proven to be *wrong* is Anthropogenic Global Warming...
*Very obligatory* AGW (Anthropogenic Global Warming) post..., and yes..., we can make the quips, cracks, snide remarks, obvious statements, statements of protest, of common sense and so on but theyll never convince anyone else..., like our neighbors and friends and relatives.
BUT, folks..., this is the *one* to see.., you can forget about all the other books, all the other articles, all the other movies... just see this one... LOL...
Its one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but its quite *another* to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...
THEREFORE..., its also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply *one* video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the *one*...
The following is an *excellent* video documentary on the so-called Global Warming I would recommend it to all FReepers. Its a very well-made documentary.

Global warming, as in any long term trend toward warming that is outside of the limits of the historical record for ups and downs is not proven. Nor is the recent (until 1999 or so) uptrend out of the historical range as far as the rate of warming. And since 1999, we've been cooling off.
Start Here for a lecture on AGW that starts with an investigation of the ice core data shows a long term cooling trend.
