Their title not mine. Well at least they are starting to acknowledge that some very strange cooling type weather patterns are occurring this winter in the Northern Hemisphere. So the British Met Office predicts 2008 to be the coldest years since 2000. However, the global warming believers are now requiring 'several more years' of flat temperatures before lack of new high temperature records become significant. So in other words they will continue their attempts to cool the world until they have several years of proof that the cooling was not needed and could even be counter productive. Wonder how many Chinese are going to freeze to death before the Global Cooling Deniers have the courage to admit they may have been wrong ?

WMO is the meteorological arm of the United Nations. What else is this corrupt goatherd going to say if he wants to keep his cushy job?

snow in Baghdad? I bet Algore will figure out a way to claim this cooling is caused by ... global warming.

China is experiencing a Global Cooling caused catastrophe that is magnitudes worse then Katrina. 600,000 stranded at just one train station.

Statement by Amir Delju, senior scientific coordinator of the World Meteorological Organization's (WMO) climate program

"The more frequent occurrence of extreme events all over the world -- floods in Australia, heavy snowfall in the Middle East -- can also be signs of warming," he said.

If he really believes that snow in places that have not seen snow in over 50 years is a sign of Global Warming, he needs to be locked up in an insane asylum.

Never. Socialists are always right. They will just drop the issue of global warming. They already are using "Climate Change". That way no matter which way the temperature goes, up or down, they are right.

That will be the only out they have. Eventually the evidence of cooling will be so overwhelming that they will embrace it and try to make money from the efforts to address the cooling. Some however will continue to deny cooling is even occurring. Those can be marginalized and put out to pasture. Hey, even some leftist still think that socialist economic programs are productive when we have over 100 years of evidence that they are counter productive. My worry is that the cooling deniers will cause the Earth to cool even worse just as the socialist counter productivity deniers have caused economic misery for millions.

Just realized this was posted earlier. Article from January 11th 2008.

Oh well. What is happening now in China makes it worthy of repost perhaps.

According to the theory, we are suppose to be in a period of accelerating warming, yet we are cooling.

Climate is very much uncertain science which needs very serious scrutiny and research... but losers keep making “predictions”, “assertions” and other “reports” dismissing any other research and other reports.

It’s politics, who wants to control climate, who wants to be god. It’s the old Marxist adage under a new form.

The Globowarming rank has a disease akin to rabbies.

According to the theory, we are suppose to be in a period of accelerating warming, yet we are cooling.

From the article

One would really have to see on the basis of some analysis what this really represents," he told Reuters, adding "are there natural factors compensating?" for increases in greenhouse gases from human activities.

The entire canard of Global Warming is based on placing controls on human activities because humans are causing the warming. They want to control human activity, since controlling the Sun is not possible and not taxable. So they have to be dragged kicking and screaming to look at any effects that lead to less control of human activities. Like the above quote illustrates. They assume that 'natural factors' are compensating for the human factors causing Global Warming. They will not even acknowledge the possibility that human global cooling factors could be compensating for the human global warming factors. That possibility cannot not even be acknowledged because it would mean additional controls on humans are not presently needed. A true scientist would now start questioning the Human induced Global Warming theory. Observations are not supporting the theory. Either the theory is wrong or some other factor is of a magnitude much greater then the theory. IE - The sun. The main problem with all this is we as a people should not have to freeze to support some Utopian Theory of Control. People are literally freezing to death all over the Northern Hemisphere and these Utopian Idealist could care less.

Why does Baghdad have to be the exception. It's currently 49 degrees here, and my feet are cold!

LONG LIVE GLOBAL WARMING! [/sarc]

True. But it would not surprise me that some of the gullible idiots out there may have actually bought into this theory hook, line and sinker. What if some governments actually thought warming was going to be a serious problem. What if they had covert programs that were designed to cool the Earth. What if the Earths warming was only a short term cycle controlled by solar activity. What if these idiots actually managed to come up with cooling programs that were effective. The theoritical implications could be quite chilly.

LONG LIVE GLOBAL WARMING!

If it keeps getting colder we may need some AGW to keep humanity functioning. They recently released some warm water from a Nuclear Power Plant to thaw ice on a river in Illinois. Apparently Ice Flow Jams were causing flooding. So it is correct to state that we are already employing AGW to compensate for the SGC (Solar Global Cooling). The weather blogs are also predicting a massive snow storm for the Eastern US on February 9-11. Kinda hard to make those types of long term predictions. Apparently some government based agency was making the prediction. They have been wrong in the past, but so far this winter the actual weather has tended to be worse then the predicted weather.

That was the basis for the movie The Day After Tomorrow which was based on the book coauthored by Art Bell. Art is a Libertarian. From what I remember the thawing ice was supposed to turn off the Gulf Steam which would then cause the Northeastern US and Western Europe to get significantly colder. The problem was that the depicted magnitude of cooling was significantly exaggerated to say the least. In fact even hard core Environmentalist slammed the movie since it was hyping the potential. Just take a look at what happens here on the west coast of the US. We have no Gulf Stream. In fact just the opposite occurs. We have an Alaskan Stream. And right now we are experiencing a significant La Nina which causes cold water to upwell. And even with all that occurring, Seattle is not buried under ice as New York was depicted in that movie. Granted we are colder here on the west and there has been significant snow amounts, but we also have the new Cosmic Ray theory to explain the increased levels of moisture.

At any rate, I thought the Chinese were claiming that they could control the weather ?
