US think tank offering cash to dispute UN climate panel: report

You could argue that you make black look white, that hot is cold, that
you can make evil look good, and that Bush has been good for the
environment.

gullible.

Re: when the predators eat each other

"The changing face of the African plains has led to a new and bloody
conflict among its animals, as captured in this documentary. National
Geographic: Predators At War examines conditions in the Mala Mala game
preserve in South Africa. Due to a long standing drought, Mala Mala's
plant life is slowly dying out, leaving the predatory animals of the
region -- among them... More lions, leopards, hyenas and cheetahs --
to prey upon one another in a grim bid for survival."

The drought was caused by Global Dimming. As far back as the Ethiopian Food
Crisis when I was in Elementary school.
PBS and the BBC aired a National Geographic doc on it.
Extremely important to our future. More so than just global warming alone.
They actually work off each other.

I always thought it was the Lions against the Christians anyway.
Moneyed vs the poor.

More yahoo stuff, yahoo?

>You could argue that you make black look white, that hot is cold,


No, I can't but global warming story tellers insist
that global warming can bring on a long hard winter,
and more snow.

>that you can make evil look good,


The only evil involved is people repeating what
they hear like they do with outhouse rumors and old
wives tales.

>and that Bush has
>been good for the environment.


You probably think 911 was good for the
environment. A lot of people are thinking and
saying the US has done nothing, but they should
check out all the projects that have been started
in the last 10 or 15 years, the government does
not need to force everybody here to do things,
efficiency is good for profit, and cooperation is
better than penalties or fines.

The amount of ethanol and biodiesel from
soy beans alone may amount to more neutral CO2
fuel than the efforts at conservation or any effort
by any other country.

And we have to try to do all this while about
2 million people every year abandon their homeland
to come here to try to find a better life and be free
of centralized government restrictions and interference
in their lives.

Re: "Humans 'very likely' making earth warmer" is wrong

Jesus couldn`t be here right now, but braught to you by the marvels
of modern technology we qoute;
"By their deeds you shall know them."

Put into a more apt context, philosiphers correctly predict (in the
near future) that mans` acts will be greatly amplified as to expose
them for their traights; as happening here now on the internet!

Is that a quote from something said by an
expert, or your own addition to all the things that
global warming has done?

I searched several different ways for something
to support your contention, but only found one article
by a writer (not a climate expert), and an opinion by
that writer that global warming has caused the snow
cap on the mountain to be smaller.

It is odd that I couldn't find any mention of the
things you claim when reading the tourist advertising.

The belief in human caused global warming is being used to gain more control
over the population, to consolidate wealth, to end any sort of freedom of the
masses, and put the whole world in the control of a small group of
elites.

I will believe that human caused global warming is a serious issue when
and only when, nations like China are forced to do something about it.
Right now, things like the Kyoto treaty are designed simply to relocate
manufacturing from places where there _ARE_ environmental protections to
places where there are practically _NONE_. They expect us to believe that
CO2 released in Ohio is bad, but CO2 released in Tianjin is of no
concern. Not to mention all the pollution controls that are required in
Ohio, the limits, the regulations, all to keep the environment cleaner
but simply don't exist in other places in the world like China.

Where people don't even have basic freedoms CO2 doesn't even seem to be
an issue. It's because they don't have an economy to crush so it can be
controlled, because there is no wealth to extract from the people by
taxes or any other means. It's already in the hands of the elite.

And before someone yaps up that poor china cannot afford pollution
controls, look at how much in US dollars alone they hold. They could
easily buy all the modern pollution controls. (which of course would
probably mostly come from US companies and help the US economy)

But it isn't about the environment, it's about power, control, and
wealth.

Of course. And the US started cleaning things up earlier as well.

The whole thing makes more sense when you put it into the context of
destroying the grand experiment in liberty and taking back the wealth
that it created that was better split amung the population than any other
previous nation.


All that said, given the total radiation output of the sun, the warming
of other planets, and other solar and solar system events that are
abnormal to say the least, I have serious doubts that the primary driver is
human produced CO2.

No, I will not argue this tired topic again just because some people got
together to announce their pre-determined conclusions. Google stuff up if
you don't want to believe me.

Considering that countries like China don't give a damn and the
situation does, in fact get worse, the global warming phenomena might
make the weather wildly unpredictable to the point of taking out most of
humanity. I have seen things like tornadoes here in California that were
once considered impossible ten or twenty years ago. The planet might
just decide to scratch us 'fleas' off.

Not a chance. We've seen MUCH bigger variations in world temps in the past.

> to the point of taking out most of humanity.


Not a chance. Even the ice ages didnt manage to do that.

And those didnt even get close to taking out most of humanity.

Only in your pathetic little drug crazed fantasyland.

Quibble: all humans pollute (what happens to your waste? Where does your
food come from?), but some pollute to a greater extent than others.

As a bicycle commuter myself, I can commiserate with you. Automobiles in
general are a very energy-inefficient means of transporting people and
public transportation should be encouraged as a way (not the only way!)
to reduce overall energy consumption. A huge amount of resources are
dedicated to providing infrastructure to an automobile society. If we
can reduce dependence on automobiles not only will it become easier for
pedestrians and bicyclists, but money can be freed for other worthwhile
projects to make our urban areas safer for everybody.
