The inconvenient truth for the environmentalist whackos is that there is no correlation between rising C02 emmissions and the 0.7 degree C rise in global temperature.

The CO2 level was rising between 1940 and 1970 but the average global temperature dropped during that period.

See post 5. Your assertion is not scientifically supported.

The CO2 level was rising between 1940 and 1970 but the average global temperature dropped during that period.

Post-hoc analysis of this period indicates that the cooling was likely a combination of natural variability and sulfate aerosols introduced into the atmosphere by the burning of coal.

If you were an average American in the late 1800's who was somewhat environmentally concerned, your biggest fear probably would have been the increasing amounts of garbage and horse shit piling up in the streets.

The real "inconvenient truth" is that predicting the distant future is something of a fool's game, and as a result, the people who insist on doing it usually end up looking like fools.

In 100 years from now when we're all dead, the global warming stuff will likely be a distant memory, and our great-grandchildren will be grappling with a new set of issues we don't even think about today.
