Anecdotal evidence:
It is May 28 and I m still wearing sweats part of the day. My Baggie shorts are still all in the drawer.
I visited the Exit Glacier National Park, Alaska in June 2007. As you approach the toe of the glacier there are signs noting the location of the receding toe. The first sign is dated 1896 and is about two miles from the current toe. The government has been tracking global warming for 117 years
I wrote a letter to the editor of Forbes in 1989 advising that the whines of algore were akin to those of Quacky Lacky in alarm to Chicken Little
It never was about weather/climate. It was, and is, always about the Government needs/wants your money.
Whatever scheme/excuse/panic they can come up with they will use. Pay your tribute, serfs...
“It was, and is, always about the Government needs/wants your money. “
And more broadly; controlling us.
A definite classic.:-)
Maybe this will finally do in the moonbats.
Hardly. Global cooling is just as good a reason for global totalitarianism and higher taxes as global warming. They've seen this for years, which is why they've already changed the propaganda term to "climate change".
That's awfully wishful thinking for a logical person like yourself.

Global Warming on Free Republic
“To their horror? Shouldnt they be relieved?”

Not really, as it was not about global warming, but about THEIR global control, and/or marketing schemes.
Think about how much money Albert Goelioni has made from the scam.
Whiteface Mountain altitude around 5,000 feet.
That was a treat!
We’ll set the flamingo free!
We could have used some global warming today in this rainy, cold gloom. In two days it will be stifling, and I’ll look fondly on this cold day. Next week, who knows? It’s springtime in the north.
The “science” has indeed settled - into something remarkably resembling a cow pie.
Thanks for the compliment, but I don't think it's so wishful. The parallels with the 1970s are striking to me. I think it's more than interesting times since the Kansas-Nebraska Act. Take care.
Cartoonists might believe that, but a petroleum geologist and the related fields understand that oil fields are from ocean/lake sediment. That algae and the like, that can have oil squeezed out of it directly, when trapped in sediment and kept away from sufficient oxygen, yields the complex hydrocarbon molecules that we call crude oil.
Heat and pressure, which the abiotic theorists claim form crude oil, actually breaks down crude oil into the simpler, shorter and less complex molecules. We do this in modern refineries every day. Physics, entropy and the like isn't reversed because it is underground.
You may want apply a little analytic thinking to that theory. Why are all the world's commercial oil fields sourced to sedimentary basins? And if oil is magically formed from deep processes, why is it that areas where the deep rock is pushed up to the surface, like Hawaii, have little to no oil at all?
And you are confusing Sinclair with BP. Sinclair's justification of the symbol was the time period from which their oil was formed.
A fuel that will be around long after you become a fossil.
Money.
Please explain how. How does promoting junk science improve the bottom lines of National Geographic, the Weather Channel, Discover etc.?
Half the people in the US are below 'par' in intelligence.
Those people like watching 'junk science' on NATGEO, WEATHER CHANNEL, DISCOVER.
More viewers, more money.
Well, that’s one theory but I don’t buy it. I suspect something quite different. It’s political — and very dangerous.
