Scientists, these seemingly disparate incidents represent the advance signs of fundamental changes in the world’s weather. The central fact is that after three quarters of a century of extraordinarily mild conditions, the earth’s climate seems to be cooling down. Meteorologists disagree about the cause and extent of the cooling trend, as well as over its specific impact on local weather conditions. But they are almost unanimous in the view that the trend will reduce agricultural productivity for the rest of the century. – The Cooling World Newsweek, April 28, 1975

The battle to feed humanity is over. In the 1970s, the world will undergo famines. Hundreds of millions of people are going to starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now. -- Paul Ehrlich - The Population Bomb (1968)

In ten years all important animal life in the sea will be extinct. Large areas of coastline will have to be evacuated because of the stench of dead fish. -- Paul Ehrlich, Earth Day (1970)

This cooling has already killed hundreds of thousands of people. If it continues and no strong action is taken, it will cause world famine, world chaos and world war, and this could all come about before the year 2000. -- Lowell Ponte "The Cooling", 1976

"There is very important climatic change (Global Cooling) going on right now, and it’s not merely something of academic interest. It is something that, if it continues, will affect the whole human occupation of the earth – like a billion people starving. The effects are already showing up in a rather drastic way.” - American Institute of Physics February 1974

"Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind. We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation," - Barry Commoner Washington University Earth Day 1970

NOAA announced its predictions for the 2006 hurricane season, saying it expects an "above normal" year with 13-16 named storms. Of these storms, the agency says it expects four to be hurricanes of category 3 or above, double the yearly average of prior seasons in recorded history. With experts calling the coming hurricane season potentially worse than last year's, oil prices have jumped 70 cents per barrel in New York and made similar leaps elsewhere. Economists anticipate that demand for oil will rise sharply over the summer, when as many as four major hurricanes could hit the United States. -- Seed Magazine 5/19/06

But this time they are surely correct? Yeah, sure

Ever since man 1st walked out onto the Savannah there has been people preaching of the coming doomsday and promising salvation from the whatever coming apocalypse if you would only just turn more control and more money over to them, and every single time without exception they've been wrong. The modern day global warming movement is no different.

"China and India have said any measures impinging on their development and efforts to lift their people from poverty were unacceptable - ..."

This means we are off the hook!  The RATs are telling us that there are two Americas; the poor and the rich.  So we have to take care of the ones in poverty first, and we need some more technological development, too.  Until then the UN (Useless Nations) can BS some more with AlGore about the men made climate change.

Thank you Norm for the Barf Alert!! That one was hard to read with all the crazy end-of-world predictions. As more and more SCIENTIFIC information comes out that global warming, especially man-made global warming, is a HOAX, the more shrill the alarmists become. The claims of global destruction from "global warming" are becoming so wild, that even usually liberal college news papers are beginning to say "wait a minute" (see Newsbusters - Another College Paper Shocker: Global Warming is Killing Us…Not!).

I just posted the below thread. I urge all who want a dose of reality read it and view the linked videos.

Global Warming Tutorial Media Should be Required to Watch

Scary picture. I can just see her mouthing the words: "We are going to take things from you for the common good."

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Rajendra Pachauri (L) and United Nations (UN) Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon hold the IPCC report on global warming. The Nobel-winning IPCC group of climate scientists issued their starkest warning yet on global warming, prompting a UN demand for politicians to smash the deadlock on tackling the worsening threat.(AFP/Diego Tuson)
