The
debate on "Global Warming' continues on two levels. On the first level,
the scientific level, the trend is pretty clear; there is NO evidence
that man-made carbon emissions affect the Global Climate, which is
currently cooling. NONE of the assertions made in 'An Inconvenient
Truth' can be supported by scientific data. The entire panoply of
statements about Global Warming announced as Gospel by the leftists ten
years ago have been disproven. Here's an article written by the
scientist
"who wrote the
carbon accounting model (FullCAM) that measures Australia's compliance
with the Kyoto Protocol, in the land use change and forestry sector."

This
article talks very specifically about how data collected in a
systematic, scientific manner failed to find any evidence that Man-made
Global Warming has any validity at all.
The article states:
"If
there really was any evidence that carbon emissions caused global
warming, don't you think we would have heard all about it ad nauseam by
now?
The world has spent
$50 billion on global warming since 1990, and we have not found any
actual evidence that carbon emissions cause global warming. Evidence
consists of observations made by someone at some time that supports the
idea that carbon emissions cause global warming. Computer models and
theoretical calculations are not evidence, they are just theory."
But
I'm watching 'Fox News Sunday' as I write this. Every commercial by
companies like Dow Chemical and Exxon Mobil looks like they hired a
band of Marxist eco-hippies to run their advertising campaign. They're SO GREEN! SO CONCERNED! The Planet is about to shrivel up like a raisin but...DONT PANIC! Big
Business and Big Government are going to be working along with Big
Media to save the world from the excesses of us gluttonous consumers.
It's amazing to compare the scientific argument to the political
argument in which the voices of the anti-Greens are almost inaudible.
When Barbara Boxer proposed a three-trillion dollar Global Warming tax
increase that would have completely sunk the economy within three years
there was no national outcry. Babs will win reelection in California in
a landslide. If she bothers to run any campaign ads against whatever
sacrificial candidate that the Other Global Warming Party runs against
her she'll use her attempt to murder our economic system as proof that
she is the only Green choice. No matter which of the socialist
Weather-Fixing political parties wins the election this November the
trend towards government domination of the economy and the absorbing of
the giant moribund mega-corporations into planned monopolies who no
longer have to fear demanding stockholders or upstart competitors will
continue.
Why is this lie taking over the consciousness of our
society without any opposition? How have the people who are fanatically
eager to impose the failed policy of government economic planning been
able to use this climatic fraud to finally turn the foremost Capitalist
nation on Earth into a centrally planned 'privately owned government
corporation' that will bring the same results that we got from Fannie
Mae and Freddy Mac? Why are the politicians and even the business
titans who dominate our economy so completely ignorant as to the real
facts, or if they know them then silent as this travesty plays out?
There are voices of opposition in the scientific community against this
charlatanism, where is the political and cultural opposition?
Is
this it? Do we just hand over our freedom and our prosperity to a
claque of rich, arrogant elitists who are using this flumery to
dispossess us of our political and economic rights and gain total
control of everything? If they can destroy the economy to fix the
weather doesn't that imply that they think that they are Gods? You
might laugh at that but that's how Utopians think. Solzhenitsyn wrote a
book entitled 'We Never Make Mistakes' which talked about that
mentality among the Stalinist antescendants of our current crop of
geniuses. The Stalinists embraced Lysenko's phony science with the same
enthusiasm as The Gorians feel for their self-serving brand of hogwash.
If the new 'revealed theory' mandates a reduction in the population of
us pollution-causing economic units wont a Green Himmler emerge to set
up the industrial capacity to reduce the number of these Pestiferous
Plebeians? Being able to Fix The Weather gives you the capacity to make
these sorts of God-like decisions and to use a cold-blooded brand of
situational ethics to justify the 'necessary steps'.
This is a
result of our political system becoming a one-party state, a
development that started in the 1960s and came to it's ultimate
fruition under the feeble corporatist 'leadership' of George W Bush.
Maybe Marx was right; trends in a society are a result of underlying
forces beyond the conscious control of mere individuals-- you know,
like the weather.
