So, we have come to realize that the physics behind the hypothesis of man-made global warming are completely false. Also, more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere may actually be *good* for organic life on earth, as plants fare better in greenhouses with increased concentrations of CO2. Furthermore, if the temperature did rise according to the "greenhouse effect" model the corresponding increase in evaporation may lead to an increase in cloud cover and precipitation and may actually cool the surface of the earth and pile more snow on those areas that exist in sub-zero temperatures, as well as cause sea levels to *fall*.
Not only that, but the real reason for the trumped up claims have also become transparently obvious: stop further development/industrialization in third world countries (like Africa), impose a global carbon tax to swell the bureaucratic ranks within the United Nations, reap in a never-ending source of funds for the climatologists around the world (i.e. as it was the case when they were warning us about "global cooling" thirty years ago) and give the socialists /leftists another reason to parade around with their puppets like idiots on call for the liberal elite whining about the need for big government and international relations to solve all our problems, all the while taking the focus off the real corporate polluters who are dumping real toxins into our food and our water and our air every day--turning the very life breath of all organic activity on earth (that is, CO2) into the worst fucking poison of them all (go figure).
Without further ado, I give you: THE CASE AGAINST MAN-MADE GLOBAL WARMING (and no, the material is not all funded by "big oil" and I will include more as I continue my research).

Alarmist global warming claims melt under scientific scrutiny

In his new book, The Assault on Reason, Al Gore pleads, "We must stop tolerating the rejection and distortion of science. We must insist on an end to the cynical use of pseudo-studies known to be false for the purpose of intentionally clouding the public's ability to discern the truth." Gore repeatedly asks that science and reason displace cynical political posturing as the central focus of public discourse.
If Gore really means what he writes, he has an opportunity to make a difference by leading by example on the issue of global warming.
A cooperative and productive discussion of global warming must be open and honest regarding the science. Global warming threats ought to be studied and mitigated, and they should not be deliberately exaggerated as a means of building support for a desired political position.
Many of the assertions Gore makes in his movie, ''An Inconvenient Truth,'' have been refuted by science, both before and after he made them. Gore can show sincerity in his plea for scientific honesty by publicly acknowledging where science has rebutted his claims.
For example, Gore claims that Himalayan glaciers are shrinking and global warming is to blame. Yet the September 2006 issue of the American Meteorological Society's Journal of Climate reported, "Glaciers are growing in the Himalayan Mountains, confounding global warming alarmists who recently claimed the glaciers were shrinking and that global warming was to blame."
Gore claims the snowcap atop Africa's Mt. Kilimanjaro is shrinking and that global warming is to blame. Yet according to the November 23, 2003, issue of Nature magazine, "Although it's tempting to blame the ice loss on global warming, researchers think that deforestation of the mountain's foothills is the more likely culprit. Without the forests' humidity, previously moisture-laden winds blew dry. No longer replenished with water, the ice is evaporating in the strong equatorial sunshine."
Gore claims global warming is causing more tornadoes. Yet the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change stated in February that there has been no scientific link established between global warming and tornadoes.
Gore claims global warming is causing more frequent and severe hurricanes. However, hurricane expert Chris Landsea published a study on May 1 documenting that hurricane activity is no higher now than in decades past. Hurricane expert William Gray reported just a few days earlier, on April 27, that the number of major hurricanes making landfall on the U.S. Atlantic coast has declined in the past 40 years. Hurricane scientists reported in the April 18 Geophysical Research Letters that global warming enhances wind shear, which will prevent a significant increase in future hurricane activity.
Gore claims global warming is causing an expansion of African deserts. However, the Sept. 16, 2002, issue of New Scientist reports, "Africa's deserts are in 'spectacular' retreat . . . making farming viable again in what were some of the most arid parts of Africa."
Gore argues Greenland is in rapid meltdown, and that this threatens to raise sea levels by 20 feet. But according to a 2005 study in the Journal of Glaciology, "the Greenland ice sheet is thinning at the margins and growing inland, with a small overall mass gain." In late 2006, researchers at the Danish Meteorological Institute reported that the past two decades were the coldest for Greenland since the 1910s.
Gore claims the Antarctic ice sheet is melting because of global warming. Yet the Jan. 14, 2002, issue of Nature magazine reported Antarctica as a whole has been dramatically cooling for decades. More recently, scientists reported in the September 2006 issue of the British journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society Series A: Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, that satellite measurements of the Antarctic ice sheet showed significant growth between 1992 and 2003. And the U.N. Climate Change panel reported in February 2007 that Antarctica is unlikely to lose any ice mass during the remainder of the century.
Each of these cases provides an opportunity for Gore to lead by example in his call for an end to the distortion of science. Will he rise to the occasion? Only time will tell.

| A Bad Week For Al Gore Man made global warming myth takes another battering as Live Earth propaganda bandwagon is derailed, drug arrest puts former VP's hypocrisy in focus again |
| Paul Joseph Watson | |
The religion of man-made global warming has had its orthodoxy shot to pieces again right before an assorted gaggle of hypocrites and control freaks, led by Al Gore, prepare this weekend to unleash Live Earth, one of the most sophisticated and carefully packaged political propaganda assaults in recent years.
This rejuvenated religion of Pagan earth worship took another blow from hard science just today, after it was revealed that the oldest plant DNA ever discovered showed that "the planet was far warmer hundreds of thousands of years ago than is generally believed," again underscoring the fact that climate change is a routine and natural phenomenon that has occurred throughout earth's history.
"They also indicated that during the last period between ice ages, 116,000-130,000 years ago, when temperatures were on average 5 C (9 F) higher than now, the glaciers on Greenland did not completely melt away," reports Reuters.
In another development, scientists examining the world's deepest ice core samples concluded that records of greenhouse gases varied wildly over the course of 800,000 years, producing temperatures that differed as much as 15 C (27 F) at different periods of time.
These two new scientific papers, allied to the understanding that CO2 emissions lag behind temperature increase by hundreds of years, reinforce the reality that we live on a volatile and constantly changing planet.
The earth's climate has always been shifting and is dependent on ice age cycles and the activity of the sun. Today we see global warming and climate change on every planet and moon within the solar system, largely due to increased sunspot activity. For humans to think that they can contribute to significant climate change models that have domineered the planet for eons before human civilization existed betrays a supreme level of arrogance and self-importance.

A Mori poll released on Monday found that a majority of the UK population were still skeptical about man-made global warming and believed the threats were being exaggerated for political purposes and to make money.
The head researchers for the poll are global warming advocates but the results forced them to admit that "counter-arguments" are beginning to erode the monopoly on truth that climate change adherents make claim to.
"The survey suggested that terrorism, graffiti, crime and dog mess were all of more concern than climate change," reported the BBC.
Emotional fearmongering: yes that's right, polar bears can swim!
This meshes with a general trend that we have tracked which clearly suggests the public are becoming wary of the outlandish fearmongering that the global warming crowd have engaged in to sell their belief system, for example the claim that climate change will be so disastrous for mankind that it will make world war look like heaven, as John Edwards stated.
The concern is felt so deep that even two of man-made global warming's closest bedfellows, Professors Paul Hardaker and Chris Collier, warned their own choir earlier this year to stop preaching doomsday scenarios about global warming, recognizing that the hysteria has eroded a lot of credibility the man-made camp had built.
The fallacy of man-made global warming is already running out of steam for three reasons. One - the hysteria will only get louder because man-made advocates have a dearth of facts to base their alarmism on and always have to resort to fearmongering. Two - as we progress further into the 21st century and the much vaunted eco-apocalypse never arrives, the alarmists will begin to look increasingly stupid and untrustworthy. Three - the hardcore science will continue to prove the climate cult wrong as it has done again today.
More bad news for Al Gore
The tabloid flirtation with the arrest of Gore's son for marijuana possession is a sideshow, but it will be interesting to see if the former Vice President's rampant hypocrisy comes to the fore once again.
For it was Gore who dismissed the use of marijuana for medical purposes in May 2000 while he also proposed a $500 million dollar program of mandatory drug testing. In addition, during his presidential run Gore vowed to create a massive bureaucracy to beef up the self-defeating war on drugs, including expanding the number of drug courts and imposing tougher penalties on users.
In his 1999 National Drug Control Strategy, Gore secured funding of $18 billion dollars to use the military to support domestic drug law enforcement efforts, a violation of Posse Comitatus.
One wonders whether Gore will crack the whip when it comes to his own son as he did during his political tenure or whether, as in the case of his energy sapping 20 room mansion with its heated swimming pool that consumes 20 times the average electricity, that it will be one rule for Gore while he lectures us on following another.
