As on Sunday morning, just about 60% of the United States in now under a cover of snow and ice. You’d think pushing an extremist view of global warming would be a tough sell at this time. So where did the UN decide to hold its latest climate conference? Not at the headquarters in New York City but in a very warm location just south of the Equator on the Indonesian Island of Bali. While at that conference, the UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-Moon, received a letter from 100 of the world’s prominent scientists. Apparently the media in Canada and Great Brittan have found this a significant enough event to give it plenty of coverage but I’ll bet you haven’t heard about this in the US media. The main emphasis of the letter is:
“Attempts to prevent global climate change from occurring are ultimately futile, and constitute a tragic misallocation of resources that would better be spent on humanity’s real and pressing problems.”
Also:
it is not established that it is possible to significantly alter global climate through cuts in human greenhouse gas emissions. On top of which, because attempts to cut emissions will slow development, the current UN approach of CO2 reduction is likely to increase human suffering from future climate change rather than to decrease it.
Many of the 100 scientists are current or former members of the IPCC and have spent their careers studying this issue and they have concluded:
“In stark contrast to the often repeated assertion that the science of climate change is settled, significant new peer-reviewed research has cast even more doubt on the hypothesis of dangerous human-caused global warming”.
But the only coverage I have seen about this conference, is of Al Gore saying things like this:
And soon, it will not be too extreme to say that the world will justifiably look at Bush as the enemy of humanity.
Here is another example of how the concept of fair and balanced journalism does not not apply in this country to this issue. You can read here a very entertaining dairy of events at the Bali conference from someone who is not one of the “Kool-Aid slurpers” as he calls the AGW believers.

Excuse me, al. Just who was President when Kyoto was supposed to be ratified? Might it have been your buddy bubba by chance?
I’m asking some dumb kid on a forum for proof of global warming, and he gives me a Wikipedia page to look at.
The truth is never appreciated, as it is less profitable than lies, and doesn’t gather power.

Why, I can look out side and see it!
You kow, All Gore is still grinding the axe he had in his hands when he got the Florida Supreme court to recount chads for him and no one else back in 2000. He's smarting from the loss. And I am glad.
But the MSM are actually quite insane, you know. Truly, crazier than bags of hammers.
Bush is the enemy of humanity? Meanwhile the dems siddle up to their commie allies and plan on traducing the competative staure of US industry through environmental law created outside of the US congress. That stupid pr*&k!
How low will these libera AH's stoop? Global warming, everyone knows now, is being caused by solar activity. And its in the normal course of things. The cience is pretty much in. Its just that these loonies can't make the paradigm shift.
Al Gore needs to be defamed for the carpetbagger he really is. And if he keeps this sort of thing up, he will crash and burn just like he did in 20000.
What a moron Al Gore is, truly.
And the MSM? They are simply insane.Institutional insanity is now upon the MSM.
I would really love to have a free vacation in Bali, as long as I didn’t have to sit through any of those climate talks. I cannot conceive of anything more tedious, except maybe a faculty meeting.
Craig James is a great guy. He's a well educated Christian meteorologist who is also a critic of evolution and global warming.
It’s simple really. The science is all in and the debate is over.
They moved onto the news America really wants.... dumb celebrities and talking heads discussing the latest crime of the month.
You simply don’t understand what is important any more.

“Global warming” hoax BUMP!
As the truth starts to sink in, that the Earth is cooling about ten times as fast as the kooks are trying to say that it is warming....
