The ice not melting, yet scaremongers blunder on.

Full title: The ice is not melting, yet still the scaremongers blunder on The real global warming disaster: green taxes, a suicidal energy policy and wasting billions on useless windmills

The news that hundreds of scientists and officials from all over the world are this weekend converging on Stockholm to discuss the next 2,000-page report from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) again highlights what is the most terrifying political conundrum facing our country today. Emerging in instalments over the next seven months, this report will try to convince the world, without a shred of hard evidence, that the prospect of catastrophic man-made global warming is “extremely likely”.

The air is already thick with familiar claims and counterclaims, President Obama quotes yet another laughably silly paper trying to make out that “97 per cent of scientists” support the IPCC “consensus”. Sceptics point out yet again that the lack of global warming over the past 17 years makes a nonsense of all those computer-model projections on which the IPCC has been basing its case for 23 years.

Obama takes on coal with first-ever carbon limits

"Linking global warming to public health, disease and extreme weather, the Obama administration pressed ahead Friday with tough requirements to limit carbon pollution from new power plants, despite protests from industry and from Republicans that it would mean a dim future for coal."

I wonder whether wind mills and solar panels will ever replace just the fossil-fuel derived energy used in their manufacture and the delivery of raw materials. Isn’t the steel and glass manufactured in large conventional factories? Isn’t the iron and silica mined using conventional carbon-based fuel and shipped on a lumbering petroleum distribution system?

But the polar ice was all melted between 2002 and now. Most of our coastal cities are under 100 ft of water and the polar bears are extinct. How can the author say it’s not so? All carbon in any form must be destroyed now, before it’s too late. It’s for the children.

We should freeze al gore in a huge ice cube and display him across the schools in America and teach the children that this is what happens when you scam mankind.

The science is settled. 120% of all scientists agree.

What else do they have. It's sad when a great religion dies. Global warming has become the "Giant Spaghetti Monster".

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls our climates.

3. The earth is a rock.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
