So we all see the huge cooling trend going on today. One city in the US got 21 inches of snow on Saturday...
 
And though most of our media here in the US ignores this fact. The bbc is finally starting to shift its coverage.
 
 
I guess facts hurt fake science.
 
 
Breaking news, 98% of the earths warmth comes from the sun... Wow, who would have guessed. Common sense rules again.
They tremble at my name...

Not too long ago, there was huge concerns about global cooling to the point where scientists were considering painting icebergs to melt them quicker.

Then it was global warming, the ice bergs are going to melt and the polar bears will drown.

Now cooling again?

I understand that global climate changes are cyclical, but we're talking a period of about 20 years here.

I have decided that you're all kooks. The naysayers, the believers- screw it all. By the time it matters any, I'll be dead.

I saw the title of this thread when I signed in to the forum this morning.
JUST by the title, I instantly knew it was FE.

So having cleaner air isn't a good enough reason for you?

the air in LA today is significantly cleaner than the air in London in the 1500's. Seriously. Given the use of catalytic converters and "scrubbers" on most industrial smoke stacks, there is less particulate and noxious matter in the air today than there was in medieval London. The height of general air pollution actually came around the industrial age (which we have since passed out the other side of) This, of course, is barring the current air conditions in countries like China and India which just don't give a flying frick.

^ source? I've also heard the exhaust from a 911 Turbo is less poisonous than L.A.'s air. I'm sure it was probably a joke, but still...

That may be true, but why stop?  Just because it is cleaner now than it was 600 years ago does not mean the job is done.

Global warming is linked to colder winters.  You can go do the research yourself, I'm too lazy right now to find it.

Global warming is a lie, it's a misnomer. And even still I'm tempted to go the George Carlin route and say that we're pretty damn cocky to think we're going to throw the whole planet out of wack. It's been here longer than we can imagine and has taken all sorts of eruptions, impacts, polarity shifts, etc and it's still peachy.

While I expect the eventual science to debunk human-caused climate change (the condition formerly known as global warming) in much the same way global cooling turned out to be BS, the article posted is not proof of this.  Excerpt with caustic, yet highly insightful, analysis below:

Ooooo . . . one whole scientist disagrees!

He claims that solar charged particles impact us far more than is currently accepted, so much so he says that they are almost entirely responsible for what happens to global temperatures.

He is so excited by what he has discovered that he plans to tell the international scientific community at a conference in London at the end of the month.

So, it will be at least a month before this one scientist shows his evidence to anyone?

If proved correct, this could revolutionise the whole subject

That's a big "if."

Clean air is for sissies.  Plus, once we have to use filters/masks to breathe outside we won't have to see the faces of ugly people any more.

Yeah, I've all but stopped even trying in global warming threads. What's the point really?

Especially when we are still getting "IF IT'S GLOBAL WARMING HOW COMES ITS SO COLD IN THE WINTER?!?" threads.

It's downright awful just how politicized something like caring about the environment has gotten.

The one highlight of this thread was getting the enjoyment out of reading this:

In conjunction with this long lasting and well documented time of data collection:

Originally posted by FreeEnterprise FreeEnterprise wrote:

And thinking of an imaginary FreeEnterprise Post newspaper with a giant headline "IT'S COLD TODAY, GLOBAL WARMING CALLED OFF."

It brought a well-needed laugh to this day.

If you read the quote I was referring too (which I included in my original post) you'll see what I was referring too.

There is no global warming, Chuck Norris got cold and decided to turn the sun up.

Fact:

When Chuck Norris jumps in a pool, he doesn't get wet.  The water gets Chuck Norris.
