    Gore is not alone on Global Warming.
    If it is not happening and we take action we lose nothing, but if it is happening and we do something, we win.

    Instant Expert: Climate Change

    Climate change is with us. A decade ago, it was conjecture. Now the future is unfolding before our eyes. Canada's Inuit see it in disappearing Arctic ice and permafrost. The shantytown dwellers of Latin America and Southern Asia see it in lethal storms and floods. Europeans see it in disappearing glaciers, forest fires and fatal heat waves.
    Scientists see it in tree rings, ancient coral and bubbles trapped in ice cores. These reveal that the world has not been as warm as it is now for a millennium or more. The three warmest years on record have all occurred since 1998; 19 of the warmest 20 since 1980. And Earth has probably never warmed as fast as in the past 30 years - a period when natural influences on global temperatures, such as solar cycles and volcanoes should have cooled us down. Studies of the thermal inertia of the oceans suggest that there is more warming in the pipeline.
    Climatologists reporting for the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) say we are seeing global warming caused by human activities and there are growing fears of feedbacks that will accelerate this warming.

    If the science was "proven beyond a reasonable doubt", (as science is supposed to be) then more scientists would believe this junk science.

    If it is human contribution that is causing global warming, then how do you explain the fact that Vikings were farming on Greenland in 1000 A.D.?
    FACT: No suv's on the Earth at this time.

    How do you explain the ice caps on Mars shrinking?
    Fact: no humans on Mars driving gas guzzling suv's.

    Over 17,000 scientists have signed a petition AGAINST the theory of man made global warming.

    Contrary to what Mr. fat carbon footprint wants us to believe, the amount of hurricaines have NOT doubled, nor have there been more of them "now" than in any other time in history.
    I've read both sides of the argument for years, and I find it interesting how many of the "pro" siders claims have been found false and untrue.

    In fact, there were more hurricanes when the Earth was cooling than there have been now.

    Second, 11 "facts" claimed by gore in his crap movie have now been proven false. These are not just simple "facts", these are some of the key selling points that gore is trying to sell on the myth of man made global warming.

    The inaccuracies, according to the court, are:
    1. The film claims that melting snows on Mount Kilimanjaro evidence global warming. The Government's expert was forced to concede that this is not correct.
    2. The film suggests that evidence from ice cores proves that rising CO2 causes temperature increases over 650,000 years. The court found that the film was misleading: Over that period the rises in CO2 lagged behind the temperature rises by 800-2000 years.
    3. The film uses emotive images of Hurricane Katrina and suggests that this has been caused by global warming. The Government's expert had to accept that it was "not possible" to attribute one-off events to global warming.
    4. The film shows the drying up of Lake Chad and claims that this was caused by global warming. The Government's expert had to accept that this was not the case.
    5. The film claims that a study showed that polar bears had drowned due to disappearing arctic ice. It turned out that Mr. Gore had misread the study: In fact four polar bears drowned, and this was because of a particularly violent storm.
    6. The film threatens that global warming could stop the Gulf Stream, throwing Europe into an ice age: The Claimant's evidence was that this was a scientific impossibility.
    7. The film blames global warming for species losses including coral reef bleaching. The Government could not find any evidence to support this claim.
    8. The film suggests that the Greenland ice covering could melt, causing sea levels to rise dangerously. The evidence is that Greenland will not melt for millennia.
    9. The film suggests that the Antarctic ice covering is melting; the evidence was that it is in fact increasing.
    10. The film suggests that sea levels could rise by seven meters, causing the displacement of millions of people. In fact, the evidence is that sea levels are expected to rise by about 40 centimeters over the next hundred years and that there is no such threat of massive migration.
    11. The film claims that rising sea levels has caused the evacuation of certain Pacific islands to New Zealand. The Government are unable to substantiate this and the Court observed that this appears to be a false claim.


    I find more and more arguments against man made global warming than I do who support it.

    Perhaps Gore, with his new found fame, will now throw his hat in the ring for the presidential election. Would I vote on him, no, not in 100 years! However, I'm willing to put him up against Hildabeast for the DNC nomination. As President of the United States, Hildabest would be a national disaster of unmentionable proportions!

    Al Gore's lecture disrupted by protesters

    JonesReport.com | October 15, 2007


    Austin, TX - Al Gore's recent presentation of An Inconvenient Truth , which has now been challenged on its accuracy in UK courts, was interrupted by protesters led by GCN radio host Jack Blood.

    Though he was booed and silenced by brainwashed audience members, Blood and other demonstrators attempted to draw attention to the fact that the global warming agenda and the environmental movement are used as fronts for world government plans as well as intentions to depopulate the earth, heavily regulate the lives of ordinary people and use carbon taxation schemes to fund it.

    A very innocent sounding Al Gore acknowledged the outburst, stating, "I'm not sure what this is about," before returning to his attempts to "put a price on the carbon."
