Global Warming Screamers

You know the type. These "global warming screamers" who go about their constant gloom and doom scenario that earth is warming up alarmingly that it'll melt the poles' ice caps and Greenland causing world wide havoc with rising sea waters and what not, caused by human beings. Even a few deaf people joined to be among the screamers. And Gallaudet, too. And how ironic it was over 30 years ago the press were screaming about global cooling!

Heck, I think in the next 30 years we ought to be more worried about nuclear war than this global warming idiocy.

Senator James M. Inhofe is one of those skeptics who don't believe in this global warming and he recently produced a 66-page guide called "A Skeptic’s Guide to Debunking Global Warming Alarmism. Hot & Cold Media Spin Cycle: A Challenge to Journalists who Cover Global Warming."

Read it!

UPDATE: In short, we should consider the sun as the main culprit over long term trend on climate change. Read a recent article on how the number of sun spots the have influenced temperature changes on earth:


The team started by using sunspot records to calibrate models of how carbon-14 in tree rings correlate withsolar activity. The models "reproduce the observed record of sunspots extremely well, from almost no sunspots during the seventeenth century to the current high levels", writes Paula Reimer, a paleoclimate expert at Queen's University, Belfast, UK, in an article accompanying the research paper in Nature.

They then extrapolated the tree ring data backwards in time and discovered that no period in the last 8000 years has been as active as the last 70. About 75 sunspots have appeared every year in this period, compared to an annual average of about 30 over the last 11,400 years.

"We are living in extraordinary times as far as solar activity is concerned," says study co-author Manfred Schussler. "Extended periods of high activity seem to be much more rare than we previously thought."

Indeed, the data also showed that high activity periods only occurred for about 10% of the period studied, and tended to last for about three decades. "That's one of the interesting things - this latest cycle has already lasted longer than most do," says Reimer.


UPDATE II: The link to Inhofe's site 66-page guide has been removed from the Environment and Public Work website after only a few days. I could probably guess why since IT IS a senate.gov site. But go here to a Google cache link (or here for the actual Google reference) and you can still read his report. Pass it around.

UPDATE III: Looks like the despot U.N. is trying to be the less of a global warming screamer now by reducing and revising their estimates on global warming impact. Nice little chuckle there for a good read on U.N.'s idiocy. I wonder if Kofi objected to the change. Oops! Too late, he's gone.

UPDATE IV: It's baaackkkk! The link to the 66-page guide on debunking Global Warming. Hat tip: Curious Eyes.
