Back on 3/24 I rediscovered(hat tip Freeper Libwhacker)  a very overlooked series of articles written by Lawrence Solomon of the National Post that sought to show how there was no "consensus" on global warming. Mr. Solomon didn't have to dig up illuminati believing bloggers, corporate shills or political pundits to do it. He just found some of the most respected scientists in their respective fields of study. At the time, I could find 27 articles in the series. I since found there are 38 so far.  I will be posting the remaining 11 articles over the next few days. Mr. Solomon has just written a book based on the series called The Deniers: The World-Renowned Scientists Who Stood Up Against Global Warming Hysteria, Political Persecution, and Fraud**and those who are too fearful to do so. Freepmail me with a request to join my "the deniers"/global warming ping list if you'd like. Here is the series:

“”Recall World War II, where everyone was making a sacrifice: gas rationing, tire rationing, no new car production, food rationing,” he explains. “I don’t think the people of the world are ready or prepared to make such a level of personal sacrifice.”

omg is this fool really comparing global warming with WW2?

These articles make me want to fire up my Titan and drive it around just for fun. Last summer was a little chilly. Maybe if I drive more it will be warmer, just like my childhood summers.

Warming alarmists act like the only thing emitted in our carbon economy is CO2. How can there be a serious debate without discussing the properties and effects of all the other stuff that is emmitted as well? From the article:

“Conceivably, aerosols are so effective at cooling that humans could double the amount of coal, oil and natural gas we burn and find that aerosols entirely negate the warming for centuries to come.”

I am sickened to see Newt Gingrich together with Nancy Pelosi on a ‘public service’ commercial both agreeing on the reality of global warming....or climate change, or whatever the flavor of the month name is for this bullcrap.

He is such a WHORE.

I am convinced there is a portion of our culture which is but one howling, frothing at the mouth moment from lining up and flagellating themselves across the continent and back in pennance for having changed that which they have no control over.

Welcome to the new Dark Age.

I think its great that Mr. Solomon(the author of this series) is so fair that he even covers the opinions of an obvious global warming alarmist while still making the point that global warming alarmism is unfounded.

Aerosol’s are dangerous and need to be buried.

when WWII happened, we virtually shut down all industry in the U.S. which didn’t contribute to War Efforts. And people literally lived without in order to get through this period.

I guess that is what the global warming fanatics want - for everybody to just stop all industry which isn’t ‘green’ and stop consuming things until the planet gets back to its ideal temperature.

Oh wait, we don’t know what the planets ideal temperature is! Crap!!!! This is never going to work. We’re going to destroy the entire world economy and civilization as we know it and we don’t know when or if we’ve ever fixed the problem!!! Damn, this is was a horrible idea. Who came up with this crap in the first place???!?!!?!

looks to me like this is a repeating cycle which happens whether or not we existed or not. What the F are we all excited about then? We know what is going to happen next - a steady fall of temp over the next 100,000 years.

Unfortunately, Alwhore thinks this is suddenly a new phenomenom and we have to fix a 150,000 cycle in one decade or so. It’s like worrying that your clock keeps ticking forward and you didn’t get a chance to enjoy the previous second before it went away.

He forgot to mention the mother of all aerosols - water vapor. Even the NFL figured that one out.

It is a very appropriate comparison. The GW alarmist crowd wants to make GW the equivalent of war justifying drastic reductions in consumption. Rationing will be a logical approach to achieve drastic reductions in consumption.

The GW issue has become a moralist crusade similar to prohibition. The GW crowd wants to drastically change lifestyles especially for the US. If these Marxists prevail, we will see reduced expectations as a the future rule, not the American dream.

I have advocated the use of Aerosols to enlarge the ozone holes to counteract greenhouses gases in the past. Of course I was being facetious, but why not. Use one hysteria to combat another.

Carbon dioxide is at the lowest level it’s ever been in his planet’s history. I believe in global warming: it caused the Ice Ages to end by warming the planet up in between cycles. Nothing will convince me it’s man made.

The number one global warming gas is water vapor. How do these geniuses propose we lower water vapor? (rhetorical question)
