The Fiction Science of Global Warming

Al Gore won an Academy Award and the Nobel Prize for his well-known movie about global warming. It is shown in public schools as a routine part of science classes.

There is only one problem with using the film as a documentary. It isn't one; it's an opinion piece. Gore himself admits there was a certain amount of exaggeration in the film which he deemed necessary to raise public awareness of the dangers of global warming. How much exaggeration?

Only several orders of magnitude. The movie depicted floods sweeping across Manhattan as New York City was swamped by a rise in sea levels of nineteen feet. Actual scientific estimates call for a worst case estimate rise in sea level of no more than nineteen inches. The difference in estimates between the claims in Gore's movie and reality is about seventeen and a half feet, making Gore's sea level estimate off approximately twelve hundred percent.

"It is shown in public schools as a routine part of science classes"

which says a hell of a lot about the state of the schools.

The environmental wackos figured out long ago that people wouldn't change their behavior unless their was an immediate dire threat facing them personally.

So in order to push their agenda they invented global warming.

It's as simple as that.

I want my America back, the one with working toilets, paper bags, wrapping paper, 100 watt bulbs, freon, a muscle cars.

It's not as simple as that. You forgot the part about CAP AND TRADE, that's where they steal $billions and BILLIONS from the American economy to transfer where they want to. Guess what? It's out of your pocket into somebody elses overseass. The United Nations is drooling over GLOBAL WARMING.

It's about theft. When your electric bill goes up over $3000/year, you may change you mind.

You are spot-on.

Couple that with draconian energy costs increases that get rolled exponentially through businesses and ultimately land upon the citizenry!

[TexasFreeper2009]

well actually that is another issue entirely.

Everyone is using everyone.

The environmental wackos are using the lie of global warming to push their green agenda, and the one world government folks are using the environmental wackos to push their agenda.
