A Few More ICCC Tidbits


Stream of consciousness....

o A single modern nuclear reactor has the generating capacity of two Hoover dams.

o The present (Holocene) warming period has lasted for 13,000 years – which, in the present cycling of ice ages and interglacials, is longer than usual; it’s not unreasonable to assume that a new Ice Age may start within the next 1,000 years.

o On Svalbard Island north of Norway, polar bear bones from 110,000 to 130,000 years ago have been found; the polar bears have clearly survived many tens of thousands of years of wild “climate change.”

o In 24 of the 50 states, the all-time high temperatures occurred in the 1930s.

o For Des Moines, Iowa, for the record June and July high temperatures, 33 of 61 occurred in the 1930s.

o In 2008, there were 266 days with no sunspots.

o The notion that ice cores represent “instant canning” of air is badly flawed – just in general (as snow settles and is compressed, the air is squeezed out) and in the handling of those cores.

o The EUniks have (off-the-record) told grant applicants that their main interest in environmentally-related topics is that they “want science that supports environmental taxes.”

Obama to push Global Warming agenda (despite the current Science data)


SubTitle: The Government force of Green agenda against “traditional” Energy to hit new levels of hostility (Big Govt. to push Democrat’s invested agenda) Boston Globe: Obama vows action on Global Warming and/or FoxNews: Obama Plans Meeting With Al Gore To Talk Energy.

Tuesday December 9, 2008 – President Elect (read Radical-Elect) Barack Obama flanked by Al Gore and VP-irrelevant Joe Biden discussed how the upcoming ObamaBinBiden Administration would be advancing, what to them is the undeniable truth, of Man-made Global Warming, and that the time for actions would begin immediately. According to Obama ‘we have listened to the Scientists!’ Trouble is, they ignore the new data and/or anyone that doesn’t care to push forward this Democrat POLITICAL issue/agenda!

We too believe the Scientists that (as of late) have noted that the Oceans have been COOLING the last few years. We PAY ATTENTION TO THE SCIENCE and the facts that WARMING has ceased the last half dozen years despite Al Gores insistence on his “Hockey Stick” graph that while Carbon continues to climb that Warming MUST/WILL continue. Despite their (Democrats) demagogue of this issue, the Scientists DO NOT HAVE A CONSENSUS! Many “Researchers” are more than happy to be on the band-wagon entirely because it puts Grant money into their coffers, and little to do with real science.
