Comments about Global Warming

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed,
appalled and highly offended by it. Global
Warming... It is a SCAM.
Some scientists with environmental and political
motives manipulated long-term scientific data back
in the late 1990's to create an illusion of rapid
global warming. Other scientists of the same
environmental wacko type jumped into the circle to
support and broaden the "research" to further
enhance the totally slanted, bogus global warming
claims. Their friends in government steered huge
research grants their way to keep the movement
going. Soon they claimed to be a consensus.
Environmental extremists, notable politicians among
them, then teamed up with movie, media and other
liberal, environmentalist journalists to create this
wild "scientific" scenario of the civilization
threatening environmental consequences from Global
Warming unless we adhere to their radical agenda.
Now their ridiculous manipulated science has been
accepted as fact and become a cornerstone issue for
CNN, CBS, NBC, the Democratic Political Party, the
Governor of California, school teachers and, in many
cases, well informed but very gullible environmental
conscientious citizens. Only one reporter at ABC has
been allowed to counter the Global Warming frenzy
with one 15-minute documentary segment.
I do not oppose environmentalism. I do not oppose
the political positions of either party.
However, Global Warming, i.e. Climate Change, is not
about environmentalism or politics. It is not a
religion. It is not something you "believe in." It
is science, the science of meteorology. This is my
field of life-long expertise. And I am telling you
Global Warming is a nonevent, a manufactured crisis
and a total scam. I say this knowing you probably
won't believe me, a mere TV weatherman, challenging
a Nobel Prize, Academy Award and Emmy Award winning
former Vice President of United States. So be it.
I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have
talked with numerous scientists. I have studied. I
have thought about it. I know I am correct. There is
no run away climate change. The impact of humans on
climate is not catastrophic. Our planet is not in
peril.
I am incensed by the incredible media glamour, the
politically correct silliness and rude dismissal of
counter arguments by the high priest of Global
Warming.
In time, a decade or two, the outrageous scam will
be obvious. As temperatures rise, polar ice cap
melting, coastal flooding and super storm pattern
will all fail to occur as predicted, and everyone
will come to realize we have been duped.
The sky is not falling. And, natural cycles and
drifts in climate are as much if not more
responsible for any climate changes underway.
I strongly believe that the next twenty years are
equally as likely to see a cooling trend as they are
to see a warming trend.

The Canadian Broadcasting Company's Cable News
Network produced an excellent documentary on Global
Warming. It is titled " Doomsday Called Off ". Here
are the YouTube URLs to watch it in five parts:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Professor Bob Carter delivered a 35 minute lecture
on global warming. If you are in an academic mood,
it is excellent. It was recorded and posted in four
parts on Youtube. Here are the links:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
I am a member of
ICECAP.US, a website dedicated to refuting
global warming.
Some people may want to see the research behind my
dismissive attitude about Global Warming. If you
want to wade through scientific jargon, here are

John Coleman
has been a TV weatherman since he was a freshman in
college in 1953 and TV was brand new. He still loves
predicting the weather and relating to the
television viewers. “I also love working at KUSI
NEWS”, he adds. “It is a rare thing; a locally owned
and managed TV station. And, there are dozens of
wonderful people who work here.” John has predicted
and shoveled his share of snow. He has been a TV
weatherman in Champaign, Peoria and Chicago,
Illinois; Omaha, Nebraska, Milwaukee, Wisconsin and
New York City. For seven years he was the weatherman
on “Good Morning, America” on the ABC Network./smaller>/fontfamily>
John also
cooked up the idea of a cable channel devoted to
nothing but weather and spent six years developing
“The Weather Channel” on cable. “That’s my baby”, he
says. “The bad guys took it away from me, but they
can’t steal the fact that it was my idea and I
started it and ran it for the first year. I put
everything I had into making TWC the success it is.”
“As for my “retirement job” at KUSI, it’s the most
fun I ever had. And the people of San Diego County
have been wonderful to me for well over a decade.
That’s very, very nice. And, that’s all I have to
say.” With that Coleman gets down to work predicting
the weather one more time. /smaller>/fontfamily>
