"An INconvenient Truth" Is a Pack of Lies

Truth? I don't see any.

Green Environmentalism turned Yellow Journalism..........

I'd read in another story linked here in Freep about how almost all the scientists claiming there is global warming are not climatologists per se, but instead scientists who study the impact of climate changes on the forests or deserts or whatever "ecosystem" is their specialty.

True or false? If true, that is devastating enough to shut up even the most virulent strain of Greeny...

Look, if the mental deficient who takes most of the credit for this "documentary" believes it's the truth, then there's no fraud involved.

It doesn't have to be actually the truth in the scientific sense...

I have a similar take on GW as the author of this piece.

Ronald Bailey :
I have long been a critic of former Vice-President Al Gore, but as a recent convert to the view that humanity is contributing significantly to the current increase in average global temperatures,

I am a recent convert as well, however I don't believe in the doom and gloom that most GW proponents give. The exaggerating they do, does little for their cause anymore. It just turns of the skeptics even more.

[Hillsdale Guy]

I am not convinced at all. We've always had warming and cooling cycles. The Medieval warming period was warmer than today.

[Paradox]

I know, I have been a sceptic for a long time. I am still skeptical about much of what the GW proponents claim, but I do believe that 1- there IS some GW ocurring, and that 2- human's are responsible for some of it. Thats why I am a Nuclear Power proponent, and I think the conservatives should jump on this bandwagon and get this ball rolling. Its a win-win if we do.

[Hillsdale Guy]

Boy, do I agree with you on nuclear power. It's the only effective alternative to our dependence on foreign oil.

"Of course, if predictions that the entire Arctic Ocean will be ice free in 100 year turn out to be right, then the polar bears will have a problem."

No they won't. If they are the predators they are all cracked up to be, they'll migrate to solid ground, adapt and start eating the next furry little critter they come across. Of course, with the polar region getting warmer, there will be more furry little critters on the menu.

Right, and we can use the GW hysteria to get it going, use their own issues "against" them, so to speak.

[MarkeyD]

And has anybody figured out what the mean temp at the poles is going to have to be in order for the Arctic to be ice free?

[SW6906]

Thanks - well worth the long read.

[SW6906]

Long read, but good info.

True, but does he actually believe it?

Either, (a)he believes it,, in which case he's so stupid that nobody should pay attention to anything he says; or (b)he knows better, in which case he's too dishonest to be believed.

Thanks...will run in Today's Toons Wed. or Thurs. Coincidentally, a week ago Saturday, I went to the Bucks Cty. Playhouse, New Hope, PA & saw the original play...yes, that's right...Urinetown: The Musical.

[reagan_fanatic]

Did everyone tinkle instead of applaud?

;)

[pookie18]

No (if you know the play), they couldn't afford it...

BTW, just attached a click-on to your creation.
