POPSGlobal Warming Consensus Rejected By Scientists
the world continues to cool. That is leading to increasing scepticism that the call to sacrifice living standards in order to "save the planet" is just political spin designed to persuade the public to accept green taxes." Syun-Ichi Akasofu "There are so many times the Earth was warmer than now, or colder than now. We are not affecting the climate change." Lord Nigel Lawson The consensus is breaking down because no matter how much the global warming agenda-setters may want us to be, people are not sheep, to be led around and told what to think and what to say. You can only lie to us for so long before the truth exposes your movement for what it is; a dogma based on faulty science and ulterior motives. We've heard prediction after prediction after prediction about how the polar ice caps were absolutely inevitably going to melt away into nothingness this summer. Of course, they haven't. Not even close. You'd think that would put some humility into these Chicken Littles.

POPSThe Great Global Warming Swindle A convincing argument ... except that the 'precautionary principle' does dicate that we take action to mitigate the contribution of man-made greenhouse gasses. The data I have seen is 'similar but different' to what is presented in this movie.

POPS “Global Warming Censored” The conference is being run by the Heartland Institute. The Business & Media Institute is one of several co-sponsors and will be reporting from the event. BMI will also be hosting a panel discussion on the media’s involvement in advancing alarmism. Those who challenge the popular theories that humans are causing global warming or that climate change will lead to catastrophic events are often ignored by the media or branded as “skeptics,” “cynics” or “deniers.” The media have been eager to report on climate change throughout modern history, alternating between the imminent threat of global cooling and global warming in the past century. The recent trend in media-driven global warming alarmism has seen the media glorifying crusaders like former Vice President Al Gore while vilifying -- or ignoring -- scientists and others who don’t buy into the hype.

POPSThere Is No Silver Bullet There Is no silver bullet but a shotgun approach of renewable energy would have considerable affect. It's not that Kyoto does nothing but we need to make the switch and go full bore into renewable energies from natural flows. It's time to take really seriously that we HAVE TO stop CO2 entering the atmosphere from our activities. I think world renown scientists such as these two should be listened to

POPSThe Day the Greenhouse Effect Ran Away
To be honest, of all end of world scenarios outlined on this site, we at Exit Mundi find the one with the runaway greenhouse effect particularly scary. Of course, there’s the problem with meteors, and the risk of robots taking over. But the greenhouse effect is happening today, as we speak. It seems to be only a matter of time before we can begin to melt that lead and tin. On the other hand: climate is a difficult beast. If we’ve learned one thing over the past few decades, it is that no one can really predict how the climate will change on us. For example: there’s a good chance the greenhouse effect unleashes not a runaway chain reaction -- but an ice age, as reported elsewhere on this site. Also, Earth survived intense heat before. 50 Million years ago, the North Pole had no ice, but a subtropical climate. And before that, in the era of the dinosaurs, CO2-levels were about four to six times higher than today. Back then, sea temperature was up to 40 degrees Celsius, and many c

POPSNew Record! Too bad this isn't the kind of record that is wanted. Global warming, fish depletion, toxic rain, fast food nation/countries, terrorism, Enron (who's next?), Darfur, tsunamis.............. I'm gonna go have a cocktail and worry about this tomorrow.
