If Global Warming is caused by the USA carbon emmissions.....then we should start cooling soon!

I thought it might have been the 2000 miles I have put on my bicycle instead of my car this year. :)

EPA has new fracking regs coming out...after the election of course. Not 1 verifiable case of well water or aquifer contamination in 60 yrs of fracking but that's not good enuff for commander zero.

States have their own regs which have worked fine for years but now not good enuff.

NG is about as perfect a fuel as can be had and is creating tens of thousands of jobs but that ain't good enuff.

And of course we all know why...

A Brief History of Ice Ages and Warming. Many details are at this site. Here are two samples.

Holocene Maximum:

The idea that man-made pollution is responsible for global warming is not supported by historical fact. The period known as the Holocene Maximum is a good example-- so-named because it was the hottest period in human history. The interesting thing is this period occurred approximately 7500 to 4000 years B.P. (before present)-- long before humans invented industrial pollution.





Cyclical ice ages:

Approximately every 100,000 years Earth's climate warms up temporarily. These warm periods, called interglacial periods, appear to last approximately 15,000 to 20,000 years before regressing back to a cold ice age climate. At year 18,000 and counting our current interglacial vacation from the Ice Age is much nearer its end than its beginning.
