Humans Have NOTHING TO DO with Global Warming - PERIOD

There are certain things that I will always beat the drum about. I'm kind of focused and narrow in my consideration of any other options. When I Investigate the options I discover that the arguments on the other side are political and manipulative.

Some of those are:
  • Gas Prices are going to go DOWN, not UP.
  • The Black Hip Hop culture is destroying the Black Culture completely
  • The Muslim community is duplicitous. There are nearly NO moderate Muslims.
  • The Iraq war is and was essential.
  • George Bush is too Liberal and spends too much money
  • Ethanol is a waste of time and money
  • The party formerly known as Democrat is led by the nuttiest people on earth
  • There is no conservatism left in the Republican party
  • Spines are very rare in government today
  • Jesus is the only way.
  • Most Atheists will die in terror and horror
  • People of good faith can disagree and still be civil
  • We need to plant more trees on the wide open prairie
  • Organized religion is becoming disorganized and restructured
  • The left is easily fooled by it's gurus.
  • So is the right.
  • The idea that man causes global warming is the pinnacle of megalomania

It's that last one I am forwarding along. Yet another person of significant science is saying what most people know in their hearts. This whole idea of human caused global warming is a vat of snake oil and must be opposed before some nut leads us all down the primrose path.

Besides, it froze last night in St. Charles IL, It's May 18th. And, we had the coldest April on record. Do the math.

Here's the article:


Global Warming caused by humans will be considered a joke in five years time,
meteorologist Augie Auer told the annual meeting of Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers in Ashburton this week.

Man's contribution to the greenhouse gases was so small we couldn't change the climate if we tried, he maintained.

"We're all going to survive this. It's all going to be a joke in five years," he said.

A combination of misinterpreted and misguided science, media hype, and political spin had created the current hysteria and it was time to put a stop to it.

"It is time to attack the myth of global warming," he said.

Water vapour was responsible for 95 per cent of the greenhouse effect, an effect which was vital to keep the world warm, he explained.

"If we didn't have the greenhouse effect the planet would be at minus 18 deg C but because we do have the greenhouse effect it is plus 15 deg C, all the time."

The other greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen dioxide, and various others including CFCs, contributed only five per cent of the effect, carbon dioxide being by far the greatest contributor at 3.6 per cent.

However, carbon dioxide as a result of man's activities was only 3.2 per cent of that, hence only 0.12 per cent of the greenhouse gases in total. Human-related methane, nitrogen dioxide and CFCs etc made similarly minuscule contributions to the effect: 0.066, 0.047 and 0.046 per cent respectively.

"That ought to be the end of the argument, there and then," he said.

"We couldn't do it (change the climate) even if we wanted to because water vapour dominates."

Yet the Greens continued to use phrases such as "The planet is groaning under the weight of CO2" and Government policies were about to hit industries such as farming, he warned.

"The Greens are really going to go after you because you put out 49 per cent of the countries emissions. Does anybody ask 49 per cent of what? Does anybody know how small that number is?

"It's become a witch-hunt; a Salem witch-hunt," he said.

SO you are stacking a guy who REPORTS the WEATHER against SCIENTISTS who STUDY the CLIMATE? Just this week CLIMATE SCIENTISTS said there is too much carbon in the Southern Ocean that previous models were counting on being a carbon sink for some time into the future. It is almost laughable how much you need this to be true.
