Read the sunspots ( we should prepare now for dangerous global cooling)

The mud at the bottom of B.C. fjords reveals that solar output drives climate change - and that we should prepare now for dangerous global cooling

"Heretic! Archbishop Gore, prepare the rack!"

I’ve been thinking that to save the glaciers, Cristo (sp?) should wrap them in bright white fabric to keep the sun from melting them. Figure that’s more useful than the usual artsy fartsy stuff he does, like wrapping islands in pink fabric....

I think they should wrap the glaciers with naked Liberal Europeans. Tell 'em it's a photo shoot and they'll be there in a flash.

"Since this whole Global Warming/Cooling issue is a money-making
venture for a select few, I’m jumping on the band wagon before
it leaves town and will trade you carbon CREDITS for swim wear,
and carbon DEBITS for a fur coat, LOL!"

Deal!

Ask yourself this...if you had absolute evidence of global cooling coming within 100 years...the return of the glacier age...how could the global dimwits manipulate the public to their advantage? They would have to convince you that you needed to conserve natural gas and fuel now because you will need it later to survive the glacier age...so they would force you to stop using as much gas and fuel. Doesn’t matter what you do....you lose.

This man appears to actually have a good grasp of science and DATA. Too bad so many of the climate alarmists and politicians can’t seem to understand that “models” are not DATA.

[AFPhys]

“This scientist also pointed out that nearly all climate models do not adequately account for cloud cover, which has a heavy counter cyclic effect on warming...”
-—<>-—<>-—<>-—<>-—<>-—

The reason for that is there is a complete lack of scientific understanding of the most important mechanisms of clouds with respect to temperature. Even the IPCCs reports have pointed out how woefully clouds, and their close cousins in effect, aerosols, are understood. They fail to point out that a 1% change in cloud cover by any means at all can account for ALL the temperature variations we’ve seen during the last century and more... even assuming the output of the sun were constant (which it hasn’t been - it’s hotter than it’s been for 8,000 years)

[ODC-GIRL]

LOL. Ah, but their skin tone will draw more melting rays and melt the glaciers faster, raising the sea-levels and drowning NY City and California.... now what was the evil point I was trying to make? Can’t remember what’s bad about THAT!

[Puntagorda]

Interesting that the media is finally reporting predictions of global cooling.

Several studies by legitimate climatologists (not the Al Gore kind), which study solar activity and impact on weather all predict the cooling pattern.

Most suggest cooling will become noticable around 2010-2012, and we’ll see ‘little ice age’ conditions around 2050.

If the mainstream and politicians are swayed, maybe, must maybe, we can avoid the carbon tax insanity that seems to be headed our way.

LOL! When I was a kid, my Grandpa still had his long-john looking swim suit from the 30’s. He’d wear it when he took us kids swimming in the lake and he’d sing, “I love to go swimmin’ with bow-legged women and swim between their legs...”

Thanks for the fond memory, LOL! :)

Thanks for the link. I've been trying to find links to the Russian guy to pass on to my son, who told me about today's article. With the Russian's name I was able to find links to several of his articles at Wikipedia. I wouldn't recommend their entry on him (or anything else) but they do have a list of external links.
