Have I Considered That The Global Warming Alarmists Might Be Right?
July 30, 2009
Today I had a reader leave a comment/question for me at a story I did recently about how John Kerry and some in Congress have made the claim that our military will be spread all across the globe dealing with issues directly related to man-made global warming if we don’t do something about it. The reader wanted to know:
Have you ever considered whether the people warning of global warming are right?
Of course I have. This is what I have considered. Back in the 70s we were all going to freeze to death because of global cooling. This was all because of evil man’s disruption of the atmosphere as we destroyed, or so they thought, the ionosphere and continued to grow the “hole” in the atmosphere…..of which they knew nothing about. Now we are all going to cook, sea levels will rise, storms will get bigger and Al Gore’s bank account will swell to gigantic proportions.
Soon the idea of global cooling cooled off – no pun intended – and life went back to some semblance of normal until a politician, with about as much background in science as I have, who claimed that he invented the Internet, waved a magic wand and created “An Inconvenient Truth” based on nothing more than speculation and the gathering of a few overly anxious scientists willing to jump on Al Gore’s bandwagon and make a few cool billion dollars by scaring the hell out of people.
The truth is, there is no proven science to support man-made global warming. All this has been hyped from poor computer modeling and no, I repeat NO, scientific fact, proven and tested that shows we are all going to die because man contributes a tiny amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere – a gas that IS NOT a pollutant and yet those who stand to make millions from selling their global warming scare, have convinced people it is a pollutant and can be regulated by the EPA and the Clean Air Act.
There is a ton of evidence that shows that climate variations have occurred for millions of years, long before evil man invaded this planet and yet, this person wants to know if I’ve considered that Al Gore is right. There is absolutely no reason why I, or anybody else, should consider that a washed up politician who stands to reap millions of dollars from his scam, is right.
No, no! The burden is on you, the reader who thinks I need to prove that global warming is not man’s fault. First, you have to prove that it is and you haven’t done that yet.
So, get busy and see if you can find proven scientific data that shows us that man-made global warming is real. In the meantime, I will ask, “Have you considered that Al Gore and the rest of the amateurs are wrong?”

It’s a great thing to buy green and save the Earth, but before you do, you should always research the product you buy.
Take the energy efficient light bulb – it’s great, saves a lot of energy and reduces your carbon footprint. All true – but did you read the box – this light bulb contains mercury and cannot be disposed in normal garbage.
Without reading this, you could be doing just as much harm to the environment!
So research before you buy!
There is a lot of money to be made in this… If you want to be an eminent scientist you have to have a lot of grad students and a lot of grants. You can’t get grants unless you say, ‘Oh global warming, yes, yes, carbon dioxide.
I agree that something is going on with the weather and earths climate. However (in my limited capacity ) over time I have noticed that all things change? Nothing ever stays the same.
With only one exception to that rule, and anyone who reads my posts knows what I mean.
There was a time I bought into the Man Made part of Global warming. I had to test to get a Universal Certification in Refrigeration. Had to know and understand the protocols. All the facts on handling refrigerants, reclamation of refrigerants and the makeup of refrigerants and how that CL2 atom was destroying the Ozone, which was killing the plankton and eventually the whales. Bad CFC HCFC not so bad.
It later dawned on me that the Government had discovered an unregulated industry and figured a way to make money and create more bureaucracy by using this Ozone scare to force regulation.
Substituting R-12 turned into a nightmare. Our scientists eventually found a usable gas but had to redesign the whole refrigeration system to accommodate a less efficient substitute. It takes more electricity to freeze your gallon of Ice Cream today than it did 20 years ago.
Stop destroying the Ozone! Save the whale! Your going to destroy the coral reefs! So what we Increase Green House Gases, this was government mandated!
Hypocrisy in action, to think I once believed in our Government. Time sure has taught me how wrong I was. ” If You Cant Trust The Governments Of The World Who Can You Trust?” Yahoo Serious
