And the oceans could rise, the Polar Bears could be extinct in 5 years, the spotted owl and smelt fish in California may go bye bye and everyone should drive a Volt to save the environment. This article could have been written by Al Gore.
These are actually all cycles of the Earth’s surfaces and oceans. Global warming is a fraudulant theory derived from flawed data (ie the “Hockey Stick Graph”). The so-called expert who developed this graph has since admitted that he faked his data. One Nobel Prize Winner whom I shall not name here was smart enough to see where all of this was headed. Carbon Credits is a con that made him filthy rich. He buys and sells something that don’t really exist. Our government and others issue carbon credits to businesses. If the business don’t really need to use theirs because their business doesn’t produce carbon emissions, then they can sell their carbon credits to other businesses. The broker gets a percentage for finding these credits for the big oil companies and other companies whose manufacturing produce carbon emissions.
How does these credits make our atmosphere cleaner? It doesn’t. The whole point of carbon emission restrictions were to lower the amount of emissions obviously. But now thanks to this Nobel Prize Winner and others like him all you have to do is purchase more credits and then you can have a higher emission level. This man travels all over the world preaching Global Warming in his private air plane and limo. What kind of message is that really? People need to start using more common sense. But El Nino and La Nina are climate cycles that do effect weather patterns. They are not dooms day predictions they are science.
But my point was the article was written negatively. Is El Nino and La Nina always bad? The article writes it that way. I’m just more disgusted with negative journalism than I am with cycles of the earth’s oceans.
Sherri, I think you summed it up very well. This country is being scammed daily by left wing nuts who are seeking to make money while controlling the country. I wonder where Joe Manchin (D-WV) is hiding out. EPA is shutting down his state on the coal mines and plants. They won’t have any economy left there after Obama gets through with them.
Agents, I can tell you are an animal lover. Don’t worry about the smelt fish, when they reach the end of the ocean and fall off the planet and into space, they die almost instantly anyhow. Then they go to smelt fish heaven.
Actually Planet, I am more concerned with the farmers in central California than I am with the smelt fish. A couple of years ago, the wacko environmentalists in charge would not release water for irrigation of the farmland due to their concern for a fish. The central valley of California was hit hard and unemployment with farms was astronomical. You are right. I am much more concerned with human beings rather than a fish, especially since California raises much of the food we live on and I want our food supply sustained and affordable.
I agree, the Central Valley is critical. But, what does that have to do with global climate change and this article? Not to mention, your comment about polar bears and spotted owls?
Planet, I was just replying to your goofy comment about the smelt fish falling off the planet and going to smelt fish heaven. If you wanted to be sarcastic, you could have done better than that. I have little patience with weather forecasters predicting so many named storms each year from their little room in Golden, Colorado. They never get it right and then they make predictions again the next year. Weathermen rarely get things right within a few days each week and always qualify their predictions with a percentage. If it doesn’t happen, they say it was just a 40% chance of happening. Weathermen were better 40 years ago sending up balloons than these guys with all their radar and satellites.
No, my goofy comment came off the heels of “Agents” (plural so not sure if this is you) comment about the polar bears, spotted owls, and smelt fish. Hey, our weather forecasters around here leave me scratching my head, too. I wish I could be paid for getting my job wrong 50% of the time.

Here’s what we need to worry about – how few people we have in the insurance industry who seem to have ever taken a science course, read anything with depth or watched any TV news other than Fox “News”. 97% of climatoligists – you know, people who actually know and study this stuff – believe in climate change caused by increases in carbon (human caused). For now, that, and actually reading some studies on the subject causes me great worry. For those of you who just want to be against anything liberals are for, get yourself an education.
Robert, these so called Climatologists may have had more credibility if they hadn’t been caught doctoring their “science” to make it come out to their viewpoint. Many had to resign in disgrace. Perhaps it is you that needs to take some science courses and learn how C02 is actually good for plants. In fact, plants would die if CO2 is not present since they use photosynthesis to produce oxygen for our planet. In my view, the earth has always had cycles and always will and human activity has little to do with it. Temperatures in the 30’s were warmer on average than today and caused the dust bowl in middle America. After a while the cycle turned and rainfall returned to normal. Wake up and smell the coffee.
Saw an article recently citing a new study by some Scandinavian scientists that shows that, over the past 2000 years or so, the global climate is actually cooling. And the beat goes on…
We will never know for complete certainty if the current cycle of increased temps is caused by normal cycles or activity of man. One thing though that we can all agree on is the dumping pollutants into the atmosphere can not be a good thing long term and we as the stewards of this planet should be investigating and implementing strategic changes to control the amount of pollution that man creates. Even though I fully believe this is the way to go we cannot allow the nut jobs on either end of the spectrum to dictate policy that is negative to the existence of man. Species have been going extinct since the begining of time while others have adapted and thrived so lets stop doing crazy things to save a species that will end up going by the wayside anyways.
Bob, Our distinguished Senator Dick Durbin, D-Il made the audacious comment that if this country didn’t convert to electric cars in the very near future, 1,000 more people would die as a result. This is how Progressives think. In my view, the air is cleaner in America now because of the catalytic converter and more efficient cars. We certainly can’t blame it on industry since much of the polluting industries have been run off to other countries. The biggest polluters are our politicians running around in their government provided jets campaigning and all the CO2 hot air generated in Washington DC. I would like these environmentalist wackos to take a trip to China and tell them they can’t manufacture goods anymore because they are polluting the atmosphere and see what kind of reception they get.
El nino, La Nina, climate change, global warming….it’s always something with doomsday predictions.

Oh look, an article about the weather. Let’s all fight about global warming.

A study of tree rings shows that our current times, by far, are not the warmest that we’ve experienced over the past 1000 years.
