What Exactly Was Global Warming?
Monday, March 1st, 2010Because it hasn’t happened, and according to the global warming conspirators’ predictive time line we can tell that it’s not going to happen, now would be a good time to reflect on exactly what anthropogenic global warming was supposed to be. Global warming was something we were destined to witness, experience, and suffer under if we didn’t obey every word that came out of Al Gore’s mouth, give all our money to the UN, and go agrarian (greens eating greens). Americans were decried as the obstructionists who were in large part responsible for impending doom because we wouldn’t knuckle under and commit civilizational suicide.
So what was global warming supposed to do, that is be doing, by now? Christopher Booker at the Telegraph.uk in England reminded his readers a few days ago that the fear mongers and conspirators threatened climate change on the order of “the destruction of Himalayan glaciers and Amazonian rainforest; famine in Africa; fast-rising sea levels; the threat of hurricanes, droughts, floods and heatwaves all becoming more frequent.”1 None of these climate changes are happening as the warmists claimed they would, and some activity, such as falling sea levels and the occurrence of hurricanes are actually moving in the opposite direction from their predictions. Booker takes time to point some of this out because the exposed conspirators are attempting to wiggle.
The contention is being heard from some that just because they got a few of the facts wrong, the science is, as the EPA recently put it, “settled.”2 Americans owe a debt of gratitude to Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli for who is suing the EPA in court over that ‘settled’ science to block the EPA from using it to ruin our lives.3
We also owe the English newspapers for keeping the heat on the warmists and getting the facts out in what is the biggest scandal in history. It is not merely matter of warmists getting a few facts wrong; it is the discovery that conspirators knowingly suppressed evidence that refuted their climate claims, acted to prevent other scientists from having their studies that contradicted global warming from being published, manipulated computer models to get the results they wanted, and did all of this in order to lie to the world to get the political and financial policies they desired for prestige and profit. That is what global warming was.

The English government is spending approximately $92 million dollars to purchase carbon credits as a consequence of surpassing their CO2 emissions cap. The Certified Emissions Reduction (CER) credits will be brokered by Barclays, JP Morgan and company who will earn about $13 million in fee for the transaction.1 The CER program is run by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, and England is forced to pay this emissions fine because they are a signatory to the Kyoto climate treaty. In addition to making bankers richer, the millions of taxpayer dollars go from the pockets of England’s taxpayers to the pockets of corporations in China and India. What England gets in return for all that money is nothing, unless you count the feeling some global warming theorists get for believing they are saving the planet from anthropogenic global warming; which, as Climategate has revealed, is still nothing. America would suffer nearly the same fate as England if we let cap-and-trade legislation pass into law. Eventually, every economy tied to the UN style scam will collapse. Even if Englishmen came to their senses tomorrow and somehow bailed out of the UN’s global warming hoax, they will have as much luck getting their money back as they would chasing a postage stamp in a hurricane.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), working closely with the Obama administration, declared last December that green house gases, including carbon dioxide, are dangerous to human health. This gives the EPA the ability to act alone in setting emission standards that would begin to strangle industry and send America’s economic downturn into a complete nose-dive. Obama is threatening to turn the EPA lose to do just that if he doesn’t get his cap-and-tread legislation from congress which will virtually do the same thing. This ‘damned if you do, and damned if you don’t’ alternative, coupled with the exposure of the global warming hoax still unraveling in the press, has finally prompted states to take action in court. Texas has filed a petition in federal court to challenge the EPA’s authority, and the state of Virginia has done the same. Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli noted that the anticipated action of the EPA would put a “staggering burden” on Virginians.1 He’s right. That’s what the EPA wants to do, and that is what Obama wants to do, and they need to be fought until they stagger out of the ring and retire.
Large energy companies that have been reaching back to cover their behinds, have recently reached back and found their spines. ConocoPhillips, the third largest integrated energy company in America, and BP, the largest oil company in Europe, bailed out of United States Climate Action Partnership (USCAP) on Tuesday. The common reason, as BP puts it, is “to spend time addressing the issues that impact our shareholders and consumers.”1 Their involvement in USCAP, organized in 2007, was to cooperate with governments in seeking ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but they have suddenly lost faith in the legislation that squeaked through the House, but is now stalled-out in the Senate. The reason the cap-and-trade bill has run out of gas is because the jig is up. The global warming hoax is unraveling so fast that it’s created its own vortex. The most recent conspirator to get sucked off the stage is U.N. climate chief Yvo de Boer. Dr. Boer announced on Thursday that he has quit, and will be quietly phasing himself out until his disappears in July. In a dispensation of poetic justice, things just got too hot for Boer. Now, that’s warming we can appreciate.
Phil Jones, Former director of climate research at University of East Anglia, has been suicidal over the reaction to his emails that were published showing his manipulation of data in order to support global warming theory. Jones also lamented that he lacked public relations skill that could have helped him to weather the scandal.1 No one in their right mind would wish Jones to take his life. The only hope serious people have is that he would end his support for the failed theory of global warming. It would be the honest thing to do. And this word of advice: repentance will take you much further than PR skills.
Dr. Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), is refusing to apologize.1 The issue this time is a factual error in the Panel’s 2007 report claiming that the Himalayan glaciers were very likely to melt as a result of global warming by 2035. It turns out the information cited in the report actually came from observations made by some hikers, and a school paper writing by a geography student. Dr. Pachauri said he can’t be held responsible for every word in the 3,000 page report. That’s alright. Many of us are refusing to apologizing for correctly identifying global warming theory as nothing more than a socialist plan to redistribute wealth under false pretenses held together by conspiracies; because we’re not responsible for global warming.
