Obama must shift on terror trial

The Debate is Not Over

Administrator — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 02:43:28 +0000

Since the last time I editorialized in the Bedford papers on the subject of the Great Global Warming Scam, events have occurred that only strengthen my case. In November 2009, thousands of emails were hacked from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, exposing that the leading scientific authorities on global warming theory were deliberately falsifying data and lying about warming trends. Equally disturbing to learn was the shameful extent to which climatologists of the global warming cabal attacked, ignored and suppressed dissenting voices. The “Climategate” scandal has cast a pall and doubt over the CRU’s famous hockey stick graph, supposedly showing global temperatures to be at equilibrium for a thousand years until the Industrial Revolution, when it began to spike. When asked to substantiate their hockey stick graph, the CRU scientists then claimed to have “lost” the relevant data. The CRU has been the primary source of data for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which for 20 years has been fueling global warming hysteria. The IPCC has been viewed as the international authority on global warming and has been used as the source of information by countless news media, political organizations and even Oscar-winning movies (paging Al Gore). This new information requires that anything the IPCC produced to be re-examined more skeptically.

As such, it was recently exposed that the IPCC’s claim that global warming will cause the disappearance of Himalayan glaciers by 2035 was based, not on science, but solely on a pamphlet published by the World Wildlife Federation. But that’s not all. It seems every few weeks a new scandal breaks.

There was the bombshell in mid-February when CRU Director Phil Jones not only admitted that there has been no warming since 1995, but conceded that the world may have been warmer during medieval times than now! This obliterates the hockey stick graph and along with it the notion that mankind is heating up the planet. The time has come for people to no longer blindly accept global warming hype.

The science is not settled. The debate is not over. It has just begun.
