Let's cut to the chase for a moment--the most ardent supporters of the flawed theory of 'global warming' are fanatics who care little about science. Their concern is purely political.
Convince the masses that the sky is falling and that it is our fault, and perhaps they will buy into the dubious and dangerous prescriptions for the cure offered by the fanatics in the environmentalist movement.
These prescriptions, of course, mandate control of human behavior as do all totalitarian-communistic solutions to problems. We must, we are told, stop using fossil fuels, live in cramped quarters that use little energy, and stop having babies which only turn into vicious monsters whose carbon output destroys the planet.
The most hardened of the fanatics are even promoting having abortions to 'save the planet.'
Science, however, continues to march forward, proving that such alarmists are simply engaging in hysterics.
First, we discovered that an increase in carbon is the result of and not the cause of global warming. There have been periods during the earth's vast history during which carbon in the atmosphere rose to unusually high levels, following periods of warming.
The problem is that these epochs of time occurred long before human beings inhabited the planet. Thus, there was no burning of fossil fuels, no vehicles spewing poisonous fumes into the air, and no human babies being born to contaminate the 'pristine' conditions of earth.
So much for THAT part of the theory.
Second, we discovered that NASA's computers had made a mistake concerning the warmest years of the 20th century and that it was actually the 1930s that were the warmest on record rather than the 1990s.
And third, we are now being told by scientists that the latest figures from U.S. satellites show that surface temperatures have FALLEN since 1998, and in 2007 these temperatures declined to their 1983 levels.
Thus, 2007 has been the coolest year on record since 1983.
Hear those thumping noises? That is the sound of the nails going into the coffin of the environmentalist movement's trumped up scheme on global warming. The problem is that the fanatics don't yet know that it is dead. So, they are still spouting their extremist fear-mongering.
