I haven't posted any of the myriad disagreements with Al Gore's "global warming" fantasy in a long time. To be honest, the thrill of pointing out all the evidence to the contrary, and all the people who disagree with Gore's "settled science" has diminished. Still, folks who are thick-headed take many doses of the truth to cure them of their politically correct fantasies, so I suppose I have a duty to continue cataloguing some of the more noteworthy examples.
Like this one, from the UK Telegraph a couple of days ago:
The scare over global warming, and our politicians' response to it, is becoming ever more bizarre. On the one hand we have the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change coming up with yet another of its notoriously politicised reports, hyping up the scare by claiming that world surface temperatures have been higher in 11 of the past 12 years (1995-2006) than ever previously recorded.
This carefully ignores the latest US satellite figures showing temperatures having fallen since 1998, declining in 2007 to a 1983 level - not to mention the newly revised figures for US surface temperatures showing that the 1930s had four of the 10 warmest years of the past century, with the hottest year of all being not 1998, as was previously claimed, but 1934.
Temperature's going down, huh? Yep, that sounds like global warming to me. I'm sure Gore and his disciples have an explanation for that one.
It's funny to me that grown people can believe B-Grade science fiction like this, yet think it's silly that the universe was intelligently designed.
