I'm doing a little something about global warming too. Calling bullshit! I woke up this morning and it was, 0 thats right folks 0 degrees. Global Warming my ass.
Yes. In 1975 Newsweek printed an article about the looming devastation that is GLOBAL COOLING. That's right. In the 70's, the scientific community was railing on governments, world leaders, and us (the unwashed ignorant public) about how a second ice age was coming and we needed to act now before we all DIE!! Solutions such as melting the polar ice caps were proposed. Now it's GLOBAL WARMING!!!! AHHHH!!! RUN!!! Science is imperfect. More accurately, scientists are imperfect. They have emotions, agendas, world views, and they need a paycheck from time to time. Eggs are good for you, no eggs are bad for you (PROVEN by science), no eggs are good for you (PROVEN by science), no eggs are bad for you... Weee. Over the last 100 years that we've been measuring the earth's climate, the official global temperature has raised 9/10ths of 1 degree. Wooo! Watch yourselves! It's the CLAW!! Sounds more like we have scientists who need more grant money and nothing stirs that up like global panic over certain death for us and our children. Yawn. I don't not believe in global climate change, I just don't think mankind has much of any impact on it whatsoever... And if we do, I just want to know how big of an SUV I need to buy to get the average temperature up another 9 degrees. I'm still cold.
