Add in frogs, boils, vermin, locust, blood, snakes, lions and lambs sleeping together, and you have “Old Testament” - (”Ghostbusters”) plus the “10 Plagues” which is recited at the Passover Dinner.
Gonna be an interesting show!
Yeah....and they are burning the forests to plant rows and rows of palm oil trees to satisfy the demand for “bio-renewable-fuel”
If these alarmists were serious they’d be bugging China to quit putting 2 Coal fired plants on line every week and would have been advocating NUCLEAR POWER for the last 20 years.
But....what they really want is for industry and the population growth it aids, to dry up and blow away.
Don’t forget that Mao started all this massive, countrywide air pollution when he told the people to make charcoal briquets in their little backyard furnaces (in the 1950’s). (Photos in Life Magazine).
I think that cloud is still circling the earth.
Pretty soon, there will be issues with:
” cooling the earth beneath in a process known as global dimming
First I’ve heard of THIS!
I wonder if global dimming is the direct result of the Glorious March Of World Socialism? “
It sounds better to me than Global Dhimming.
” Floods and droughts?
That’s an all-purpose cloud. “
Yes, but it’s a dry rain.
OH NO! Global Cooling!
Others absorbed heat radiation from the Sun because of their dark colour.
OH NO! Global Warming!

No.
I think it's just a wet drought.
Actually, it started with the end of the last "Ice-Age" nearly 12,000 years ago.
In fact, just before the Younger Dryas, the earth was warmer than it is today... yet it still managed to plunge into another ice age.
We are not in danger of warming the planet excessively, but of plunging into another ice-age.
The End of the last Ice Age
The Earth emerged from the ice age 14,000 years ago, and for a brief period1 of about 1,300 years, things actually went quite well. Forests began to grow back and magnificent creatures such as the Irish Elk and the Woolly Mammoth flourished in the rich temperate grasslands of Europe and North America. In fact, for a time, temperatures were even warmer than they are today.The Younger Dryas
Then, around 12,700 years ago, the climate across North America, Europe and Western Asia suddenly reverted to bitterly freezing conditions. This period is known as the Younger Dryas. Icecaps reappeared over high ground and the sea levels dropped. The forests and grasslands died back, and the Irish Elk and Woolly Mammoth were driven towards final extinction. Human societies, still mainly accustomed to hunting and gathering for their sustenance, faced huge challenges as the fruits, cereals and animals on which they depended disappeared. Around this time, they adopted a new survival strategy that would enable them to live year-round, particularly during the long winter periods when absolutely no food was available. This was made possible through the intensive cultivation and nurturing of selected foodstuffs and animals close to home, an activity known today as farming. In this way, modern society was born.
Any yet, oddly, the UN didn't see fit to include China in the list of countries that should sign the Kyoto Agreement.
The model they used, which specifically addresses the unique configuration of the summit's vertical ice walls, additionally provided, in their words, "a clear indication that solar radiation is the main climatic parameter governing and maintaining ice retreat on the mountain's summit plateau in the drier climate since ca. 1880."
How about clean coal, natural gas, oil, and butanol (similar to gasoline)?
