Rare Yellowstone volcano eruption would be deadly

Of course we should not TRY to pollute the planet, but to think that man is powerful enough to really make a difference in the way this planet operates is arrogant to put it nicely.

These volcanoes are more powerful and spew more pollution into the air in a day than we could even dream.

So when possible do what you can do keep the planet clean, but all this crazy talk about taxing the crap out of business to stop global warming is ignorant and dangerous. Haven't we lost enough jobs Dems?

World may not be warming, say scientists

It's nice to read an article that stimulates the mind...with scientific facts and logic..

I understand liberals will not be able to handle this and might have headaches after reading..

RFK, Jr. 15 months ago: Global warming means no snow or cold in DC

Here is what liberals, not just RFK have thought for years, and some that read this blog still believe in global warming and the melting of the ice caps...

In Virginia, the weather also has changed dramatically. Recently arrived residents in the northern suburbs, accustomed to today's anemic winters, might find it astonishing to learn that there were once ski runs on Ballantrae Hill in McLean, with a rope tow and local ski club. Snow is so scarce today that most Virginia children probably don't own a sled. But neighbors came to our home at Hickory Hill nearly every winter weekend to ride saucers and Flexible Flyers.

In those days, I recall my uncle, President Kennedy, standing erect as he rode a toboggan in his top coat, never faltering until he slid into the boxwood at the bottom of the hill. Once, my father, Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy, brought a delegation of visiting Eskimos home from the Justice Department for lunch at our house. They spent the afternoon building a great igloo in the deep snow in our backyard. My brothers and sisters played in the structure for several weeks before it began to melt. On weekend afternoons, we commonly joined hundreds of Georgetown residents for ice skating on Washington's C&O Canal, which these days rarely freezes enough to safely skate.

Meanwhile, Exxon Mobil and its carbon cronies continue to pour money into think tanks whose purpose is to deceive the American public into believing that global warming is a fantasy.

and of course...

It just snowed 27.5 inches...

Well done on that global warming religion...oh wait, that failed so now you call it climate change..

You really really should be embarrassed...

Hey liberals...at least you have someone attending your global warming church services

Bin Laden blasts US for climate change

The mini ice age starts here

The bitter winter afflicting much of the Northern Hemisphere is only the start of a global trend towards cooler weather that is likely to last for 20 or 30 years, say some of the world’s most eminent climate scientists.
Their predictions – based on an analysis of natural cycles in water temperatures in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans – challenge some of the global warming orthodoxy’s most deeply cherished beliefs, such as the claim that the North Pole will be free of ice in
summer by 2013.

According to the US National Snow and Ice Data Centre in Colorado, Arctic summer sea ice has increased by 409,000 square miles, or 26 per cent, since 2007 – and even the most committed global warming activists do not dispute this.

Looks like you guys were wrong on that whole new liberal religion thing..
Man, it must suck to hang your hat on that and have it be 100000% wrong and have me be right again..man..
Can someone tell our President about this so he can possibly get something right in 2010?

Climategate

I love this...
I have said for years that the data set that was being used by environmentalists to "prove" man-made global warming was statistically insignificant.
I said that scientists were letting their politics and bias cloud their judgement and come up with conclusions that were not accurate.
I knew that they were trying to silence the actual scientists who can be objective from talking about the problems with the global warming data.
I never thought that they were simply making things up...
I guess you can never go to far down, down, down when it comes to the mind-set of a liberal.

So algore won a Nobel Peace Prize for making a movie that was full of lies even before this new batch of lies was reveled.

I just sit and think about all the liberals all over the Internet and specifically on this blog that made global warming their religion.
They bashed me and other conservatives as not being able to keep up with the times, for not believing in science.

The problem was that I did understand how research and data collection work and you guys did not.
I would really love to see all the blind-sheep liberals come on here and admit that man-made global warming is completely made up.
We need to stop destroying the economy of the world and especially the US economy for this made up religion.
It has been proven now...even more so than it was before.

First a few links:
Climategate: the final nail in the coffin of 'Anthropogenic Global Warming'?
Junk science exposed among climate-change believers

and here you still have king moron with his head in the sand, embarrassing himself and those who follow his religion..embarrass them if that is possible...
Obama: 'Step closer' to climate deal...

You have to believe that these guys always knew global warming was made-up...they really couldn't be this stupid, could they?

This has to be about destroying capitalism or taking down the big, bad dirty companies, right?
Please tell me you guys are really not this stupid?
And that you continue to be after your whole Bible has been proven made up and a lie.
Tell me you have just a little bit of dignity

Some quotes from stupid liberals:
anon- True - Earth is flat. Tobacco is not bad for health.Darwin was a moron. It was God who created everything.Liberals are stupid. They just don't get it.

JIM: Do you honestly believe that all this "stuff" you've linked here has not been reviewed by peers, by the scientific community, and simply ignored? I don't. I believe that scientists around the world have reviewed data and observations which may or may not support both "sides" of the question and come to an informed conclusion. WAY TO GO JIM...YOU CAN ADMIT YOU WERE WRONG NOW

JIM: But what most scientists agree is that the the global climate is getting warmer over time AND that at least part of the cause is anthroprogenic. WRONG

I could do this all day but you get the point..
Man do I feel so much smarter than a liberal right now..I mean, even smarter than I always do...

Global warming is the new religion of First World urban elites

Just love the title...I have been saying this for over a year...
It's okay, people can use it..its so true

Crops under stress as temperatures fall

This cant be true...
algore and BHO keep telling us we need to throw away our SUVs, destroy our economy and jobs so Florida doesn't get flooded in the next 7 years...
How can this be?

Maybe FL and Hawaii will still flood...you ever notice if you fill up your drink too high and then add a few more ice cubes some spills over...

Welcome to the "climate change" religion...since the "global warming" religion is already dead...how long that one last...

Talk about followers...use your brain for a few minutes before you get all emotional...
And now lets sit back and watch liberals unable to address this issue...

Global warming? Really? There are people who still believe we control the weather?

I'll link everything that I have cited before..
But answer this simple question?
What is the correct temperature of the Earth?
Was it the correct temp in the 60's, the 80's, 90's?
It has gone up and down since the 1900's, which is as far back as we can go to get reliable data.
Since you can not answer that question, your done anyway.
But we will give you even more facts:

We are spending money at ridiculous levels.
Now we want to tax the crap out of business, the people who SHOULD be creating jobs and not the government, for the fake religion of global warming.

I never thought we could elect someone who could destroy the economy with more efficiency than Carter. The only good thought you can have right now is that Carter brought Reagan, lets hope there is a Reagan somewhere and not so many freeloaders that now NEED liberals to stay in charge so they can have their mediocre lifestyle.

I'm very confused...
I thought we had global warming?
I thought the ice caps were melting?
I was told that I was wrong when I said it was possible some parts of the globe had melting ice while other parts had more ice.
Help me out liberals...
Oh wait a minute!!!
Global warming is just what I said it was, a natural ebb and flow of our climate, most likely caused by sun spots.
But no, continue to tell us how to live our lives and mandate what we can and can not do. Liberals are only for one kid of "choice," otherwise, they will use anything to make it acceptable to tell you how to live your lives, including global warming. You better hurry up, you probably only got a few more years before the average person wakes up.

Global warming freeze?

I just think it is comical for liberals to state global warming as fact and not want to have any other talks about it. Well, since I am open minded and have a scientific brain, I could smell something funny with this whole global warming thing from a mile away. The data sets were flawed, the results were statistically insignificant, and it just seemed like a new religion to the Left. Well, the Earth is once again cooling, going through a natural cycle that has nothing to do with man. It would just be funny to watch liberals get all emotional about it, but now people like Obama want to severely harm our economy and change our whole way of life for something completely made up and inaccurate. I'll let a professional break it down for you:

President-elect Barack Obama recently declared his intention to mitigate global warming by enacting a cap-and-trade policy that would reduce carbon emissions 80 percent by the year 2050.
But the last two years of global cooling have nearly erased 30 years of temperature increases. To the extent that global warming ever existed, it is now officially over.
This year began with a severe spell of winter weather in China. Observers characterized it as the largest natural disaster to hit China in decades. By the end of January, blizzards and cold temperatures had killed 60 people and caused millions to lose electric service. Nearly a million buildings were damaged and airports had to close. Hong Kong had the second-longest cold spell since 1885. A temperature of 33.6 degrees Fahrenheit was barely higher than the record low of 32 degrees F set in 1893.
Other countries in Asia also experienced record cold. In February, cold in the northern half of Vietnam wiped out 40 percent of the rice crop and killed 33,000 head of livestock. In India, the city of Mumbai recorded the lowest temperatures of the last 40 years. Across India, there was more frost damage to crops than at any other time in the last 30 years.
In the United States, the weather also was frigid. The city of International Falls, Minn,, whose official nickname is the "icebox of the nation," set a new record low temperature of minus 40 degrees F, breaking the old record of minus 37 F established in 1967.
Alaska experienced an unusually cold and wet summer. For the first time since the 18th century, Alaskan glaciers grew instead of retreating. In Fairbanks, October was the fourth coldest in 104 years of record. Last month in Reading, Pa., the temperature stayed below 40 degrees F for six consecutive days - the longest November cold spell there since 1903.
These cold weather events were not abnormal or isolated incidents. Global measures of climatic conditions indicate significant cooling.
A preliminary estimate by the British Met Office says 2008 will be the coldest year of the last 10. The extent of global sea ice is at the same level it was in 1980. The mean planetary temperature, as monitored by satellite, also is the same as in 1980.
Last March, NASA reported the oceans have been cooling for the last five years. Sea level has stopped rising, and Northern Hemisphere cyclone and hurricane activity is at a 24-year low.
Environmental extremists and global warming alarmists are in denial and running for cover. Their rationale for continuing a lost cause is that weather events in the short term are not necessarily related to long-term climatic trends. But these are the same people who screamed at us each year that ordinary weather events such as high temperatures or hurricanes were undeniable evidence of imminent doom.
Now that global warming is over, politicians are finally ready to enact dubious solutions to a non-existent problem. In Britain, Parliament is intrepidly forging ahead with a bold new plan to cool the climate, even as London experienced its first October snowfall since 1934 and Ireland went through the coldest October in the last 70 years.
This is an absurd spectacle. Our advanced civilization is being systematically mismanaged by technologically illiterate lawyers responding to political pressures from irrational fanatics. Would someone please tell these people it is impossible to overturn the laws of thermodynamics?
We cannot improve our economy by artificially forcing people to use expensive, unreliable and inefficient energy sources.
Let the politicians take note. People will not like what you have in mind. California is arguably the most liberal state. Yet last month they defeated, by nearly a 2-to-1 margin, a law that would have forced California utilities to obtain half their electric power from renewable sources. What the Obama administration proposes is much more radical. Their cap-and-trade proposal will dramatically increase the energy costs of the average consumer and likely drive our crippled economy into a severe depression.
To the extent global warming was ever valid, it is now officially over. It is time to file this theory in the dustbin of history, next to Aristotelean physics, Neptunism, the geocentric universe, phlogiston, and a plethora of other incorrect scientific theories, all of which had vocal and dogmatic supporters who cited incontrovertible evidence.
Weather and climate change are natural processes beyond human control. To argue otherwise is to deny the factual evidence.

$45 trillion needed to combat warming

I agree we need many, many more nuclear power plants, but otherwise this is crap.
What happens if we cut carbon emissions by half?
Who is going to cut by half?
Not Central America, not India, not Africa and not China...I can guarantee you that...
So, with our new President, we will be forces to destroy our economy, lose jobs and lower the quality of life for everyone so a few countries can fight the cartoon villain "global warming."
Even if you believe man has caused it and can control it, you can not stop it unless all countries comply.

The global warming bandwagon has lost a wheel and is quite empty (for people with Ph.D's, for those of you are in the religion of global warming..)

The "science" is not settled...
By Bob Unruh© 2008 WorldNetDaily
More than 31,000 scientists across the U.S. – including more than 9,000 Ph.D.s in fields such as atmospheric science, climatology, Earth science, environment and dozens of other specialties – have signed a petition rejecting "global warming," the assumption that the human production of greenhouse gases is damaging Earth's climate.
"There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate," the petition states. "Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth."
The Petition Project actually was launched nearly 10 years ago, when the first few thousand signatures were assembled. Then, between 1999 and 2007, the list of signatures grew gradually without any special effort or campaign.
But now, a new effort has been conducted because of an "escalation of the claims of 'consensus,' release of the movie 'An Inconvenient Truth' by Mr. Al Gore, and related events," according to officials with the project. "Mr. Gore's movie, asserting a 'consensus' and 'settled science' in agreement about human-caused global warming, conveyed the claims about human-caused global warming to ordinary movie goers and to public school children, to whom the film was widely distributed. Unfortunately, Mr. Gore's movie contains many very serious incorrect claims which no informed, honest scientist could endorse," said project spokesman and founder Art Robinson.

Where is the global warming?

We need to change our entire way of life, ruin the economy, use all our food for fuel, hamstring business...
Oh wait, the Earth is cooling again?
You mean the natural warming and cooling of the Earth is taking place?
Nothing to do with man?
Well, what am I supposed to do now?

As usual, when you start implementing liberal ideas, the "good" that they think they are doing actually brings horrible consequences.
We are trying to save the planet from the natural warming and cooling that it has done for all of time, and because of it millions will starve and we might even bring a world wide great depression...
