EXCERPT:

It was delightfully appropriate that, as large parts of Argentina were swept by severe blizzards last week, on a scale never experienced before, the city of Nashville, Tennessee, should have enjoyed the coolest July 21 in its history, breaking a record established in 1877. Appropriate, because Nashville is the home of Al Gore, the man who for 20 years has been predicting that we should all by now be in the grip of runaway global warming.

His predictions have proved so wildly wrong – along with those of the Met Office's £33 million computer model which forecast that we should now be enjoying a "barbecue summer" and that 2009 would be one of "the five warmest years ever" – that the propaganda machine has had to work overtime to maintain what is threatening to become the most expensive fiction in history.

He is filthy rich for being so wildly wrong,courtesy of gullible people the world over.

From the article:

Quote:A new study by an Australian analyst, Joanne Nova, based on official figures (available at the website of the Science and Public Policy Institute), shows that since 1991 US federal spending alone on climate change has been $79 billion. The cost of international carbon trading in 2008 was a staggering $126 billion, and is soon likely to run into trillions, making buying and selling the right to emit CO2 "the largest single commodity traded" in the world. Yet for all that money (along with countless billions more spent in Britain and elsewhere), "no one is able to point to a single piece of evidence that man-made carbon dioxide has a significant effect on global climate".

And Alarmists complain about "big" oil?

;D

I think they do that out of sheer ignorance and being bereft of rational counterpoints on the climate issues at hand.Thus they take the low road to slinging a lot of mud,hoping it will mess us up in the process.To create confusion and chaos.A perfect mirror of their inner chaos they have.

When they fling that at me,I usually ask them to stop their deflections on the discussion at hand,or ask them to drop the Ad hominem's and get back on the discussion at hand.So many of them never do and that is why they come across as being pathetic.They have nothing rational for us to think about,just the childish B.S. I have come to expect.

As an example of just how variable weather and climate can be locally, I'm in Nashville and was on the 21st and it was cool but I don't think I felt it was particularly cold (I'm on vacation). Actually, I'm in a place just outside of Nashville-Hendersonville. Goes to show that temperature and variations depend on where you are measuring!

ICIH:
I am half a state east of you. The temperatures have not been that bad but I tend to stay in for the afternoons due to the humidity. There have been a few days when it was actually nice here all day. Just like early fall weather.

what I still can't believe is al gore actually received the nobel peace prize plus an oscar for lieing. >

[Mike Davis]

Arafat won the Peace prize also! and Oscars are awarded to SciFi all the time. I do believe this was the first time an Infomercial won an Oscar though. I may be wrong as some of the other so called documentaries were close to the line between reality and fiction or salesman ship!
