Unfortunately, it's more likely that the majority will ever see Gore and the other warmists as being wrong.

If temperatures started to reverse, even as early as next year, the warmists would claim credit; saying that because they rang the alarm bells, people started to take actions to fight climate change. It won't matter how symbolic or ineffective (or even counterproductive)these "actions" are; nor will it matter how much technological change would have taken place regardless of the GW scare.

Second, cognitive dissonance on a mass scale will come into play. Watermelons (green on the outside, red in the middle) still haven't acknowledged how wrong their bad ideas of the 1970's and 1980's were (Silent Spring, Population Bomb, etc.) Nor have they acknowledge the horrific harm these bad ideas caused (e.g. 50 million unnecessary deaths from malaria, as a direct result of the ban on DDT). Not only will they not admit that they were wrong -- they will honestly believe that they weren't. Such is the power of cognitive dissonance.

Finally, don't expect the MSM to hold anyone to account. They're as culpable for the fraud as anyone.

"majority will ever see Gore ..."

That's "never", not "ever" -- dang!

It was interesting to note that the latest "Global Warming" report was released on the same day we set a record low temperature here in the People's Republic.

Also, this has been the eighth coldest January (in Denver) since records have been kept (starting around 1880).

But, this is all proof of global warming, don't ya see?

Unfortunately, you make good points.

One of the great embarassing truths is that we have trees that tell the cyclic story, and thet are up to 3500 years old -

How much time did you waste finding that drivel? According to Google, just .19 seconds: and produced 655,000 returns.

It's a great read

[Eclectica]

Yup. Science News, Nature, BBC, etc.

This one's pretty convincing, though:

It's just another way for idiots to make money without trying and to tax us to death which I think they are doing a pretty good job at that.

During the Medievil Warm Period, sea levels were 10-15 FEET higher than today...

There is evidence of Global Warming on Mars and Pluto...

Al Gore must be IMMEDIATELY shot into space to becoem Dictator of Mars, and save the Plutonians from thier SUV's...

When you mention these FACTS to a follwer of the Religion of Global Warming, you get blank stares, then enraged, fanatical insults like "NAZI!!" or "BUSHBOT!!"

The "Great Global Warming Scare" is nothing more than the vehicle to push International Socialism toward it's goals of Global Control....

Thanks for more ammo, xcamel. :)

There are a number of articles that popped out in the last 48 hours...from the Canadian National Post...which spell out the vast efforts underway to disprove global warming.

http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/story.html?id=edae9952-3c3e-47ba-913f-7359a5c7f723&k=0

These Russian dudes mentioned in this article...are absolute in the heat trend peaking within 3 years...and their dire forecast spells out a cold blast by 2040...like the mini-freeze of the 1400-1700 period. The change in temperature will be noticeable by 2012.

The side of this that people ought to understand...is that we as a civilization have faced this over and over. IT is not the end of our lives or end of civilization. People change...people move....people adapt. Environmental folks have a natural tendency to blame...and to associate things with gobal business. I would urge them...in the strongest of ways...to learn the art of change. We will all pay more for heat within 40 years and there is no doubt that alternate forms of energy will be helpful in that period as we are going to need mega power in some regions (New England and Canda) to survive out this period. Farmers in the south...just hold up to 2040...and your crops will double up as people rely on you to feed more folks. We can make it during this cold spell...we've done it a thousand times. We don't need to go nuts and start vast programs to halt the global freeze.

Once the Kyoto Treaty is signed the "unstoppable" cycle will stop!

"We will all pay more for heat within 40 years and ....."

Not, so! I'll not be here to pay more in 40 years! And some of the others on FR tonight will not be here!
