Are You Ready For Global Cooling?

Climate Science: Noted scientists at a Chicago climate conference declare that global warming is not only dead, but that the planet faces a big chill for decades to come. What about those frozen wind turbines?

It's not exactly Copenhagen or Kyoto, but the 700 scientists attending the fourth International Conference on Climate Change, sponsored by the Heartland Institute, had some chilling news of their own in the most liberal sense.

"Global warming is over — at least for a few decades," Don Easterbrook, emeritus professor of geology at Western Washington University, told the gathering. "However, the bad news is that global cooling is even more harmful to humans than global warming, and a cause for greater concern."

I am frozen in fear.

Time to increase the size of your carbon footprint for the sake of the children.

Frankly, I look forward to the good eats once all the Leftwingtards are placed in frozen storage.

No, I am not a cannibal. However, you can take any kind of meat you want, thaw it out and toss it to your dogs to eat.

You later on eat the dogs.

Learned that one from the Mohawk!

Are you ready for the next ice age?

Watching Beck eat a WEEEEINER on the Factor.

We need minimum emission standards on cars.

I wasn’t ready for the last one. ;-)

Can we just get some ‘global average’ before leaping into the global cooling from global warming? Even my simple washer has a couple of other cycles besides permanent depress.

I prefer cat.

[Navy Patriot]

The Russians are betting on global cooling for a few years now.

Whoa! many thanx!

We need emission limits on politicians and profiteering charlatans like Al Gore.

Did you read the article?

"Rather than global warming at a rate of about 1 (degree) Fahrenheit per decade, records of past natural cycles indicate there may be global cooling for the first few decades of the 21st century to about 2030," Easterbrook said. He spoke of natural cycles that have been occurring since the discovery of fire and mankind's first carbon emissions, long before the invention of the wheel and the SUV.

Yep, the sunspot cycle is still pretty puny, so looks like there will be cooling for a little while longer.

[oyez]

Once the Liberals adopt this, the remedy for global cooling will be the same as for global warming.

We see a bit of irony in an early February report that 11, 115-foot-tall wind turbines installed to provide power to 11 Minnesota towns were not functioning because they couldn't handle the record cold temperatures of a harsh winter.

Ah, irony can be lovely...
