Many of my acquaintances love to smirk or look knowingly at each other when I tell them what a bunch of hogwash the global warming hysteria is. Eleven years of dropping temperatures and mountains of evidence prove that CO2 can't have the effects people claim it has on the earth's climate. Detailed data exists that shows massively higher CO2 levels at frigid times in our climate history.
Sometimes I feel like I'm in the Invasion of the Body Snatchers movie and everyone has popped out of their gooey little pods chanting "the IPCC says so, the IPCC says so". The Main Stream Media has protected this BS long enough and while I'd be the first to say we need to protect our environment and develop alternative energy sources, I'm tired of public policy being developed on false hysteria. And apparently other people are finally starting to catch on.
For just one of several well researched websites that takes a different view go here.
Skeptics of the skeptical, stop being stubborn, wipe off the pod goo and if you'd rather watch a film go here.

Yes, I saw David Frum on Bill Maher's show making the point that if the doomsday enviro crowd were truly sincere in thinking that we had only a few decades left before the ice caps melted and the sun was no longer adequately reflected back from the earth, that these hysterics should be calling for more nuclear power in our energy production since that is less polluting, etc. But no, they pretend windmills are enough.
Good point. Nuclear power is the answer (one of the answers) to lessening our reliance on foreign oil. It's clean, safe and cheap. Why won't liberals support it? Boggles the mind.
Nuclear power takes 13 years to start producing anything. Might want to take that into account too...
Are all liberals into instant gratification? That's the same thing said about oil drilling "It'll take 10 years...." Seems short sighted.
