Patterson explained CO2 is not a pollutant, but an essential plant food.

Repeat loud and often.................

He had better be careful. The Global Warming Inquisition will find him.

"In the meantime, I'm worried we're going to spend millions that could have been spent on something better like air pollution."

He's way off the mark.

We're going to waste billions (trillions worldwide).

“The temperatures match very closely with the solar cycles.”

I’ve not heard a single “we’re causing it” nut comment on the relationship of the sun to warming.

“We solved the ozone and acid rain problem. With effort, and a new way of doing things we could solve this one too,” said Phillips.”

Really? What did I miss? When and How did WE do THAT?

I seem to remember they just quietly slipped off into the night. Right after it was found that they were bogus!

What a blast.

The issue is NOT global warming but whether it is man-made.

The isue is the unexplained last 60 years 'hockey stick' on the CO2 graph. Has the sun's output increased that much in the past 60 years ? If so then global warming is NOT man made.


BUMP

“I’m a man that’s difficult to convince,” he said. “What convinces me is the large body of evidence, and highly reputable people promoting global warming, who are not lobbyists, but only seeking truth in science. They say the the earth is warming up faster and greater now than in the past.”

Mars is warming up. Titan is warming up. All of the other planets where we can take measurements are warming up. And Earth is warming up. So yes, there is global warming, and that’s the truth. And yes, it’s warming up faster and greater now than in the recent recorded past.

The Sun is hotting up (I will leave the “fire next time” prophesies to those who dig that sort of thing). When the Sun hots up, the Solar System hots up. (Go figure!)

Now, it could be that Titan and Mars and Mecury and Venus are warming up because the Sun is increasing its radiant output, but the Earth is warming up because of cow farts and SUV emissions. It could be. But it isn’t.

"All the money wasted on Kyoto in a year could provide clean drinking water for Africa," said Patterson

I like that man's thinking processes..........

How about: All the money spent on Kyoto in a year could be kept by the taxpaying citizens to do with as they wish (i.e., buy food & housing, send children to college, etc.)?

Those evil Martians much be using fossil fuels too. There are so many good reasons to set aside the Global Warming Hysteria.

You might have missed it, but the "Hockey Stick" has been broken and is now in the Junk Science trash bin. Even the UN clepto-crats don't cite it anymore.

Did any of these brave scientists - either as individuals or as a group - offer free classes to gore and his ilk?

Might help....at least then, gore would have no excuse!

Thus far Global Warming is based on the heresy of people such as AlGore and of course others referencing some allegedly certifiable “Science” (None provided), and or “Scientists’” stating that Global Warming exists, and of course the Main Stream Alarmist, “Town Criers” hammer away at our sensibilities daily with the news.

Within this article is a grand example of the idiocy of the Global Warming alarmist. Note the commentary of Mr. Phillips. GW advocaters are good and have no motives other than the purist of..., yet GW skeptics motives are questionable as they have allegiance to something to make them think the way they do.
