As the "evidence" for man-made globalwarming fades, these cultist loons get even loonier.
When a man’s whole belief system through life is falling apart, he will become desperate.
Sea level has already risen over 1000 feet in the last 20 years. How much more can we take?
The author is an alarmist who does not choose to address solutions. I wonder if he is aggressively pro-nuclear? Or if he wants to erect monumental idols to Algore in every courthouse square, make worship mandatory, and empower a class of all-powerful bureaucrats to enforce mandatory rationing?
Eventually, these loons will urge us all to pull a Jonestown. Just drink the Kool-Aid and die for the sake of Mother Earth.
Michael Oppenheimer, 1990, The Environmental Defense Fund: “By 1995, the greenhouse effect would be desolating the heartlands of North America and Eurasia with horrific drought, causing crop failures and food riots…”(By 1996) The Platte River of Nebraska would be dry, while a continent-wide black blizzard of prairie topsoil will stop traffic on interstates, strip paint from houses and shut down computers…The Mexican police will round up illegal American migrants surging into Mexico seeking work as field hands.”
April 18, 1990, Denver Post: “Giant sand dunes may turn Plains to desert–huge sand dunes extending east from Colorado’s Front Range may be on the verge of breaking through the thin topsoil, transforming America’s rolling High Plains into a desert, new research suggests. The giant sand dunes discovered by NASA satellite photos are expected to re-emerge over the next 20 t0 50 years, depending on how fast average temperatures rise from the suspected ‘greenhouse effect’ scientists believe.”
Sept 19, 1989, St. Louis Post-Dispatch: “New York will probably be like Florida 15 years from now.”
June 30, 1989, Associated Press: U.N. OFFICIAL PREDICTS DISASTER, SAYS GREENHOUSE EFFECT COULD WIPE SOME NATIONS OFF MAP–entire nations could be wiped off the face of the earth by rising sea levels if global warming is not reversed by the year 2000. Coastal flooding and crop failures would create an exodus of ‘eco-refugees,’ threatening political chaos,” said Brown, director of the New York office of the U.N. Environment Program. He added that governments have a 10-year window of opportunity to solve the greenhouse effect.
I'm still waiting for that ice free Arctic by the year 2009.
Did I hear someone say “The sky is falling”? Yawn
No need to thank us for keeping the glaciers at arms length. Well, maybe some thanks would be in order. Have no fear earth, we’re tryin’ to keep you warm. :>}
They’re quoting a guy from a data center that no one has heard of and another guy from a MIAC school that no one outside of Minnesota has heard of. Pretty desperate for “experts”.
Hysteria and damn lies. Far more overblown drama than the myth that the “Red Scare” was mere hysteria.
The Green Menace is deceit designed to hamstring American productivity and lifestyles. Knock us down a few pegs because our standard of living was “too good”.
Idiot liberals never learn history. “Population Bomb”, the idiot liberal book, claimed in the 1960’s that Earth cannot possibly support the billions of people we have now and we were all going to starve to death.
Blue states hardest hit!
And because West Antarctica is so massive, it has a dramatic gravitational pull on the objects around it. This is Newton 101. “It’s really fundamental. What you might almost call high school physics,” explains Jonathan Bamber, a professor of physical geography at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom.
In this case, West Antarctica is so large that it pulls the global ocean toward it, which slopes upward toward the ice sheet and the Antarctic continent in general. But if West Antarctica were to lose a substantial part of its ice, then the gravitational pull would relax, and sea level would actually decrease near the ice sheet even as it spreads and increases across the global ocean.
But not evenly. Instead, areas farther from West Antarctica would get more sea level rise, and North America and the United States might get more than any other inhabited place on Earth. “The water that had been held close to West Antarctica spreads out across the ocean,” explains Penn State glaciologist Richard Alley, “and we’re far enough away that we weren’t in the ‘pile’ that was held close to West Antarctica when the ice sheet was there and its gravity attracted the water to make the pile, but
Now that is some convoluted Sh!t right there.
In 2005 Mooney’s first book, The Republican War on Science, was released. The book explored the premise that the presidential administration of George W. Bush regularly distorted and/or suppressed scientific research to further its own political aims. His most recent book is The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science–and Reality.
Mooney is presently a correspondent for The Climate Desk magazine and for Mother Jones. In October 2014 the Washington Post announced that Mooney would begin writing a new, environmentally focused blog for the paper.
Humans have a hard time conceiving ! The most truthful part of this dribble.
Isn't it odd that global warming can only cause bad things to happen? Dead polar bears, broiling heat, boiling oceans, cities underwater. If it even existed, it is a natural force; it is not sentient. Wouldn't global warming be a least responsible for one or two good things by accident? Milder Winter perhaps, or an early Spring?
How can it be evil personified as presented by the MSM? It can only be so because the writers and so called scientists have an underlying hated of man, and ultimately themselves. When they say they want to stop global warming, what they are saying is they want to stop man.
This is why we must listen to this guy!!!!
Idiot.
I guess they never watched an episode of deadliest catch where the ice cap can grow seven miles in 24 hours
So we have done more than anyone else to extend growing seasons and make the planet more habitable. Where’s the “thank you”?
