Clicking this text will take you to an incredible list of links addressing every concern of the warming alarmists… and then some!! Want to know the side of the issue that the press ignores? Start here. Remember when the UN hand-picked a bunch of scientists that they agreed with, and then used them to say that there was ‘consensus’? Look here (or anywhere else on the page) and then tell me about the consensus. |

Any examination of global warming deserves an airing of the work of those brave scientists who are not afraid to point out the naked emperor and tell it like it is. To those scientists, thanks… and watch your backs! |

The recent hullabaloo at the UN made me wonder, if everybody is in agreement, who are these guys? With their titles and degrees, seems that someone would have stopped and picked them up on the way to the convention.
Why would scientists lie? There is plenty of motivation out there—Scientists get promoted by bringing in grant money. They get grants by studying the popular questions. If they tend to come up with conclusions that go against the mission of the funding source, their grant applications get a chuckle, and are pushed to the bottom of the pile. I doubt that many scientists knowingly make things up (although there have been many examples of that happening over the years). There are many ways that science gets ‘fooled’. One is the ‘publishing effect’—positive results get published, and negative findings don’t. There is a similar process in the media— right now, stories about warming are ‘hot’. Stories about things being the same don’t sell. And stories against the religion of global warming bring outcries, calls for censorship… |

Back to science, any researcher bears responsibility to eliminate bias, separate correlation from causation, and to attempt to prove the null hypothesis. But in an environment full of believers, science gets careless. An example of carelessness would be my realizing that I was growing in the 1970s, but that I haven’t grown anymore since 1985. I look at the temperature charts, and conclude that global warming causes growth retardation. Get it?
Non-science people who are reporters and editors and TV personalities confuse correlation with causation all of the time. As a scientist, I am surprised by some of the conclusions. A friend recently pointed out that there is less snow now, compared to her childhood, and that supports the idea of global warming. Such a type of mistake is common, but I would think that reporters and writers would be smart enough (or ‘wise enough’) to realize the error of their logic.
Why would Al Gore et al. lie? The public radio crowd actually believes that there are different kinds of people out there—the good ones and the bad ones. Liberals tend to be closed-minded, but I don’t consider them to be evil. They, on the other hand, see evil all around. Oils? Evil. Halliburton? Evil. Cheney and Bush? Evil. In the liberal mind, there are things that are simply above reproach. NPR? No greed there— heck, they likely don’t care about money and give everything to the poor. Oral sex in the Oval Office? What is wrong with that? Sometimes it is hard to keep track— like right now, corn and ethanol is good, but Archer Daniels Midland is evil. When one opens their eyes, they can see that the left has far more motivation to lie about global warming than any conservative does. The left has entire foundations that would go poof if it weren’t for ecological disaster. And as far as Exxon goes, they will make more money from corn than they ever did with oil. Just wait and see.
Consensus? No way. The problem is that those climatologists who still have careers ahead of them are aware of happens to the truth, and to those telling it, when the truth interferes with a liberal or media agenda (same thing, as I think about it).
A well-written paper discusses the global warming ‘consensus’. |

Actually, consensus is a good place to start. The UN just announced that there is a ‘scientific consensus’ on warming—they assure the public, through the media, that every person with any credibility is on board. Heck, I just proved they are lying by showing that one article above—in that article alone there are several respected research climatologists with opposing views. Look for yourself, or do a Google search—they are not hard to find. But my question is, where do the UN and press get off telling us that everyone agrees? At this point a liberal will say that the scientists who don’t agree don’t count—they must be paid off by business. There has never been any evidence of that type of situation, but it must be so—otherwise Huffington and Streisand and Pelosi and Penn and all those pretty, neat, (uneducated) people would be wrong!! A leftie friend of mine recently shared some of my material with her leftie family, and she told me that they now treat her different. I told her to take notice of what is happening—she has just become irrelevant and ignorant in their eyes. Amazingly, that is about all it takes. Some more examples of non-consensus: |

Hey—Looks like an interesting movie… Don’t get too excited—Broadcasters don’t have the guts to show the movie over here. But although you cannot see it, you can look in on a discussion about the movie, some questions about what Gore is smoking, etc, if you click here: |

Some day people will refer to someone “pulling a gore” for doing something analogous to losing a ‘sure-thing’ election, and then being the proponent of the wrong side of the biggest issue of the decade. I keep picturing Al up on stage at the Oscars, so proud of this neat little movie he made... Drives up with his Prius (from the jet hangar). During the applause, he’s thinking about Tennessee: “Damn, I think I may have left 4287 lights on in the basement…” |

The Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine offers links to a number of interesting things, including the petition signed by over 17,000 scientists who take issue with the global warming alarmists over at the UN. There is also a video feed for an interesting lone-hour lecture on what we know about the relationship between carbon dioxide and climate. Click on the banner above. |

If only more people had the ability to think independently, like these sixth graders. (and Kudos to their teacher! |

Is the tide turning?
More and more articles are finding their way to the public, despite the continuing censorship of the media outlets who have lost their perspective years ago. A word to the New York Times et al. : Yes, you are going to have egg on your face. And yes, the Nobel Prize to Gore thing will look pretty silly in retrospect… but the sooner you come clean, the less painful it will be. Quit your suppression campaign, and report EVERYTHING— even the stuff you don’t want to be true. Maybe the drop in your circulation numbers will even slow down. The articles below are fascinating— keep reading... |
