Al Gore's 'An Inconvenient Truth' Meets Its Challenger
Brian Farmer | March 20, 2007
In the 1970s, we were being warned about the dangers of global cooling. Now we are being warned about the dangers of global warming. Well, which is it!?
The average earth temperature has risen by about one degree over the past 100+ years. Most of that temperature rise took place during the first half of that time span, while most of the increase in man-made greenhouse gases took place during the second half of that time span. This is the exact opposite of what you would expect, if it were true that man-made greenhouse gases cause global warming.
It's also been reported that average temperatures on other planets in the solar system are also rising.
These are just a couple of the many inconvenient truths that Al Gore conveniently ignores.
The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) just released a summary of its latest report, which caused the media to claim that man-made global warming is a fact. The full report won't be released until May, to allow for final editing.
The IPCC has a history of publishing misleading reports. For example, in a 1996 report, it edited out these two statements:
• "None of the studies cited has shown clear evidence that we can attribute the observed climate changes to increases in greenhouse gases."
• "No study to date had positively attributed all or part of the climate changes...to man-made causes."
The geologic record shows that climate change has been going on throughout Earth's history, and is closely tied to solar cycles, not human activity. And yet, scientists who dispute man-made global warming are being smeared as the equivalent of Holocaust deniers.
The global warming issue is being driven by ideologues and demagogues, who are using deceitful, alarmist arguments, in order to justify seizing control of human activity everywhere on the planet.
