Global Warming has come to be a hotly contested issue. Are there valid concerns that we should consider, or is Global Warming just the latest manufactured crisis to cash in on the public’s fears and generate new support for global governance, global carbon taxes and other oppressive policies?
On November 20, 2008 Ron Paul said in a New York Times / Freakonomics interview:
“I try to look at global warming the same way I look at all other serious issues: as objectively and open-minded as possible. There is clear evidence that the temperatures in some parts of the globe are rising, but temperatures are cooling in other parts. The average surface temperature had risen for several decades, but it fell back substantially in the past few years.
Clearly there is something afoot. The question is: Is the upward fluctuation in temperature man-made or part of a natural phenomenon. Geological records indicate that in the 12th century, Earth experienced a warming period during which Greenland was literally green and served as rich farmland for Nordic peoples. There was then a mini ice age, the polar ice caps grew, and the once-thriving population of Greenland was virtually wiped out.
It is clear that the earth experiences natural cycles in temperature. However, science shows that human activity probably does play a role in stimulating the current fluctuations.
The question is: how much? Rather than taking a “sky is falling” approach, I think there are common-sense steps we can take to cut emissions and preserve our environment. I am, after all, a conservative and seek to conserve not just American traditions and our Constitution, but our natural resources as well.
We should start by ending subsidies for oil companies. And we should never, ever go to war to protect our perceived oil interests. If oil were allowed to rise to its natural price, there would be tremendous market incentives to find alternate sources of energy. At the same time, I can’t support government “investment” in alternative sources either, for this is not investment at all.
Government cannot invest, it can only redistribute resources. Just look at the mess government created with ethanol. Congress decided that we needed more biofuels, and the best choice was ethanol from corn. So we subsidized corn farmers at the expense of others, and investment in other types of renewables was crowded out.
Now it turns out that corn ethanol is inefficient, and it actually takes more energy to produce the fuel than you get when you burn it. The most efficient ethanol may come from hemp, but hemp production is illegal and there has been little progress on hemp ethanol. And on top of that, corn is now going into our gas tanks instead of onto our tables or feeding our livestock or dairy cows; so food prices have been driven up. This is what happens when we allow government to make choices instead of the market; I hope we avoid those mistakes moving forward.”
After additional consideration and analysis and shortly before the release of the Climategate emails in late 2009, Ron Paul identified the artificial panic around Global Warming as an elaborate hoax:
“The greatest hoax I think that has been around for many, many years if not hundreds of years has been this hoax on [...] global warming.” – Ron Paul on Fox Business, Nov. 4, 2009
“[The Copenhagen treaty on climate change] can’t help the economy. It has to hurt the economy and it can’t possibly help the environment because they’re totally off track on that. It might turn out to be one of the biggest hoaxes of all history, this whole global warming terrorism that they’ve been using, but we’ll have to just wait and see, but it cannot be helpful. It’s going to hurt everybody.” – Ron Paul on the Alex Jones Show, Nov. 5, 2009
For an environmental insider’s view on the “Green Agenda” and its background and motivations check out The Green Agenda. Also read Lew Rockwell’s Anti-Environmentalist Manifesto.































My understanding is that a conservative wishes to conserve the status quo and a radical wishes to change it.Period

Agreed If I might clarify what I said about right wing ideology.In the dictionary it says that right wing means conservative because tje conservatives sat on tje right side of the president and the radicals on the left.
Therefor what the ideology of the conservatives is depends on the ideology of the president and the government hence the term neocon.
In Nazi germany a conservative would sit on the right of hitler and the seats on the left would be empty but equally in Soviet Russia a conservative would sit on the right of Stalin tjere also the left hamd seats would be empty (so to.speak)Same again in Communist China a conservative would have been one 40 years ago who believed in collectivism but now would believe in letting multinationals operate in their country(perhaps similar in a way)
So,the ideology of conservatism changes with history and the text books are out of date.
Just look at the way the traditional conservative values of ron Paul are considered to be radical and a threat to the neocon republican party.
I hope that has clarified things a bit.

@”Pon Raul” – “Tucci78 is a Birther (meaning he actually believes that the Obama birth certificate is fake).”
Who said anything about “believes,” doofus? As with the gaudy AGW fraud, there is simply no EVIDENCE presented to support the ridiculous contention that Barry Soebarkah (he gave up the name “Obama” when he was adopted by Lolo Soetoro to become a citizen of the Republic of Indonesia) was born in Honolulu rather than in his home town of Mombasa.
Were the obvious fabrications of which you speak (which the public has seen ONLY in the form of computer graphic images) placed physically in the hands of a team of trained, experienced forensic documents examiners prepared to attest under oath in a court of law, then I might credit such expert testimony as EVIDENCE that Barry Soebarkah had been born someplace other than the Coast Province General Hospital in Kenya Colony.
As it is, what Mr. Soebarkah has shown isn’t even enough to get him a driver’s license in most of the several states in this republic. Tsk.
It’d also be nice to see documents pertaining to his naturalization as a U.S. citizen after he was sent as a child to Honolulu to live with his maternal grandparents. Legal papers indicating that his name had been changed back to “Barack Hussein Obama II” would be happy-making, too, don’tcha think?
And how can I possibly be a “bigot” if it’s clear that I hate, despise, and oppose ALL “Liberal” fascists regardless of genetic heritage or phenotype?
Your Magic Mulatto (heck, he’s not even THAT much, as the Luo people of East Africa are considerably intermarried with the Arabs who have settled in that region over the past five or six centuries) is hateful not because of his moderately diminished albedo but in considerable part because he’s as much a criminal as are most Cook County machine goons, and rather spectacularly more so since he slimed feloniously into a public office for which he is forbidden by law even to contend in an election.

The use of heated and abusive language by participants on this forum suggests to me that belief systems are being threatened.In situations like this it appears to me that belief is inversely proportional to knowledge and the heated nature of the writings indicates a lack of knowledge more than anything else.However, I do think that if a group of people want to remove soveriegnty from the nations of the world they had better first have good scientific data to prove firstly that the planet is needing saved because of our actions and secondly that the united nations,carbon trading ,taxing etc is the only mechanism that can do this,thirdly they need to prove that the UN will have the wherewithal and technology to deliver this potentially mammoth task which by the way could have very nasty unintended consequences for the human race
It seems to me that the history of collective initiatives in this regard so far would indicate that none of these assertions are proved and that we should therefor keep our soveriegnty intact as the constitution intended.and as most of the people in the world actually prefer.

My language in this forum is NEVER “heated.” When I deal with these Watermelon lying scum, I do it in the same merry spirit as a small boy out on a sunny morning squashing stinkbugs.
Same kind of stench from these “Liberal” fascists, for that matter.
As for it being allegedly “abusive,” that’s pure nonsense. They warrant such language, do they not? They’ve sweated and strained and thieved and lied, they’ve molested children, impoverished elderly people, done everything they can to destroy the economy of industrialized civilization, precipitated financial panics, triggered the “Arab Spring” uprisings (admittedly not a bad thing in and of itself), defrauded the taxpayers, elected an illegal alien to the U.S. presidency and are trying to repeat the crime, have forced into existence legislature to make the 4th and 5th Amendments to the Constitution null and void, and are in the process of destroying the 1st Amendment (see “SOPA” and “PIPA”).
Heavens, I could hang them, drag them still living through the sewers, tar and feather them, shoot them repeatedly, and finish up with a traditional “drawn and quartered” finish, and they’d still be getting off lightly.
The old Imperial Chinese “death of a thousand cuts” really ought to be thrown in there someplace, if only we could figure out how to do it without diminishing the agony and humiliation of the other punishments. Maybe right before the tar-and-feathers treatment?
Please reconsider your opinion of “heated and abusive language,” and acknowledge that my conduct here is the very soul of polite restraint and moderation.

I do find the deception,dishonesty of these orwellian double speak types very distastefull.Have you checked out the Fabians.Two hundred or so of the mp,s of the British Labour Party are members of the Fabian society including Tony Blair,Gordon Brown and the current shadow leader Milliband.
I bet theres lots of them in the USA as well.
Of course the Fabians thought that Stalin was wonderfull and visited Russia in the thirties wide eyed with wonderment at the achievement of it all while millions were dying in slave camps on trumped up charges.

Oh, heck, yeah, I’m familiar with the history of the Fabian Society, as well as with its sputniki here in these United States.
“I have been over to the future and it works.” (Lincoln Steffans, 1921, returning from a visit to the Soviet Union)
“Any report of a famine in Russia is today an exaggeration or malignant propaganda.” (Walter Duranty, *The New York Times*, 23 August 1933, reporting on the Holdomor in which Stalin inflicted the deaths of between eleven and thirteen million smallholding family farmers in the Ukraine).
Other prominent contemporary Western “Liberal” deniers of the kulak murders included George Bernard Shaw, John Maynard Keynes, and H.G. Wells. See http://www.lib.monash.edu.au/exhibitions/communism/com107.html for some wonderful insight into how these leftie-luser scum cuddled up to “Uncle Joe” Stalin at the height of this particular “enlightened” work of socialism.
As I’ve observed before in this forum, the Watermelon types (“green on the outside, red to the core”) continue without exception to show themselves bereft of any education or literacy whatsoever.
If any of them had any kind of informed appreciation not only of how completely bogus is the AGW contention but also how utterly vicious and murderous has been the whole history of socialism as a political movement, I could only think that they would have not only repudiated their idiocies but sought to do penance in efforts to compensate their victims for all the damages they and their co-conspirators have done.
That they have not done so is an indication that our “Liberal” fascists have the same morality and mindset as any other bunch of serial rapists and murderers, and therefore recommend treating them as enemies of the public peace everywhere and in every way they show themselves.

pon raul,you make the common mistake of conflating fascism with right wing ideology.Fascism is Authoritarianism as opposed to the rule of law with full separation of powers.Right wing means conservative because the conservatives sat on the right hand side of the president.therefore strictly speaking there no such thing as right wing ideology since a conservative as opposed to a radical who would havesat on the left side of the president,could have any ideology depending who the president was ie Adolf Hitler,Maostetung,Obama or RON Paul.
There is an element of authoritarianism in every government by its nature so what the argument really is ,is whether we have more authoritarianism or less authoritarianism ie more government or less government.ie more fascism or less fascism.I submit that the answer is obvious.

Anyone with the most basic knowledge of political history knows that far left can result in totalitarianism (China) while far right is fascism or in your recent history the pre-fascist regime of Bush and no doubt what you will get if the likes of Newt get in. To say that right wing has no ideology is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read on the internet and that takes some doing. This is all ORWELLIAN double speak. You’re posts are reeking of someone who’s never travelled, never read, never conversed with anyone that has a different way of looking at the world other than what you get from your propaganda channels on American TV. You don’t even know you are living in a 2 party dictatorship!! The ONLY difference between REP and DEM is health and that’s cause there is an argument raging in the corporate communities about efficiency of a healthy work force. Obama continued the Bush wars, the Bush bail outs, the Bush corporatism, Bush’s Israel/foreign policy, didn’t close Guantanemo…. WAKE UP. What is the way we judge success? Economy? – then communism(China) is at the moment far more successful. In all other aspects of society Socialist scandanavian countries are far ahead of the rest. In US history the most prosperous era for the ordinary man was 50’60′s when there was high taxes and big government investment. The migration of people from working to middle class was the biggest in history, now after 30 years of NEO-LIBERAL ideology(rightwing) the exact opposite is happening. The middle class has been destroyed by republican corporatism. YOU ALL REEK OF IDEOLOGY. Too much Glenn Beck and not enough travel.

@Allan from Skye – “Fascism is Authoritarianism as opposed to the rule of law with full separation of powers.”
There are different types of authoritarianism, and it is best always to bear in mind the definition of fascism as the term was conceived and instantiated in the first half of the 20th Century.
Bear in mind that fascism is a species of socialism. Always was, from the earliest days of socialist Benito Mussolini’s political career in defining his doctrine as “fascismo.” This fact really pisses off socialists in general, because most of them in the Western polities today are leftie-lusers without historical literacy, who hanker to define their political opponents (every kind) as “fascists.”
As with their spastic and unthinking use of the epithet “racist!” in any encounter with the fact that their criminal excuse for a lawful President of these United States is not even currently a citizen of our nation (much less “natural born” in the legal definition that satisfies the requirements of the U.S. Constitution), and should be deported to the Republic of Indonesia if he survives the multiple prison sentences that keep stacking up with his every day squatting on the presidential dunnie, our “Liberal” fascists conceive the word “fascist” to be a term of maximum odium, and use it with no more thought or scruple than they exhibit in stealing food from the hands of widows and orphans.
The fundamental premise of socialism is that “society” (instantiated in almost all cases by whatever clique controls the “break things and kill people” functions of civil government) supposedly has “rights” which are superior in all cases and situations to those of the individual human being.
Indeed, that the individual person is merely something like a “cell” in the body politic. The individual “cell” may be sloughed or even deliberately killed if it serves the benefit of the organic whole, the “society.”
Really friggin’ evil, isn’t it? If your standard of moral value is the individual human being, then socialism – however it’s called – is so profoundly immoral that hating and opposing socialists becomes an absolute and undeniable necessity. Failure to stop these sons of bitches and thereby rescue their victims is the equivalent of chucking little children to a pack of rabid wolves.
Because the AGW fraud serves many purposes in aid of individual human rights violation, our modern “Liberal” fascists embrace the concept and scrabble desperately to ram it down the throats of their innocent victims.

@Experience Counts2 – Continued, quoting from:
http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/64_07_Conjecture_to_Law.pdf
“Just as intelligent design is a threshold question between nonscience and conjectures, anthropogenic global warming (AGW) is a threshold question between conjectures and hypotheses. AGW is a centuries-old conjecture elevated to an established belief by a little clique of quacks who proclaim themselves the Consensus on Climate, guardians of the vault of exclusive knowledge. Does this sound familiar? Is the Consensus patterned after the Council of Trent? As a matter of science, as opposed to a matter of belief, the AGW conjecture is gathering more contradictory evidence than supporting. The layman can test it and understand its failings by applying just the few principles outlined here.
“AGW fails the test because it is proclaimed by a consensus. Science places no value on such a vote. A unanimous opinion, much less a consensus, is insufficient. Science advances one scientist at a time, and we honor their names. It advances one model at a time. When the article gets around to saying ‘most scientists believe…,’ it’s time to go back to the comics section. Science relies instead on models that make factual predictions that are or might be validated.
“AGW fails on the first order scientific principles outlined here because it does not fit all the data. The consensus relies on models initialized after the start of the Industrial era, which then try to trace out a future climate. Science demands that a climate model reproduce the climate data first. These models don’t fit the first-, second-, or third-order events that characterize the history of Earth’s climate. They don’t reproduce the Ice Ages, the Glacial epochs, or even the rather recent Little Ice Age. The models don’t even have characteristics similar to these profound events, much less have the timing right. Since the start of the Industrial era, Earth has been warming in recovery from these three events. The consensus initializes its models to be in equilibrium, not warming.
“And there’s much, much more.
“Anthropogenic Global Warming is a crippled conjecture, doomed just by these principles of science never to advance to a hypothesis. Its fate would be sealed by a minimally scientifically literate public.”
===
It has never been a question of “who is anti-science” but rather who is adherent to scientific method and who is either ensnared by a terrible blunder or perpetrating arrant fraud.

Cutting a bit further into your barrage of idiocy, let’s get to: “1. Cite a specific scientific paper or a specific data set that has been altered by climate scientists. 2. In your own personal opinion, what evidence would have to be produced in order to convince you that AGW theory is correct?”
(1) The datasets exposed in the FOIA2009.zip archive (Climategate 1.0) qualify as demonstrating purposeful corruption of surface temperature readings by the perpetrators of the AGW fraud on the payroll of the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia (UEA). Also verified has been evidence of pervasive database “book-cooking” at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS); one example is discussed at http://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/12/11/giss-raw-station-data-before-and-after/ and there’s a great deal more, both as a result of the SurfaceStations.org project and in other honest, open, responsibly skeptical online discussion sites all over the Web.
(2) My “own personal opinion” is irrelevant, putzie, but in order for the AGW conjecture (because it’s NOT a theory, and never has been) to be considered correct, the following must be demonstrated:
a) The conceptual structure or “model” of how the real world works must be “…based on all data in its specified domain, with no counterexample, and incorporating a novel prediction yet to be validated by facts.”
b) It must be supported by “…at least one nontrivial validating datum.”
c) In the case of an alleged scientific conception upon which basis an unprecedented and unspeakably costly curtailment of the entire world’s economy is proposed, the conjecture should be expected to have “…received validation in all possible ramifications, and to known levels of accuracy.”

But it doesn’t matter whether those Cornwall Alliance types have correctly perceived the fact that there is no EVIDENCE supporting the “crippled conjecture” (read physicist Jeff Glassman’s articles cited below) that anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) is the cause of what piddling little global warming the planet has been continuing to experience at a more or less steady rate for over three centuries now – ever since the Little Ice Age began to wane in approximately 1700 AD, and that there’s no signature of such an effect in any of the observational data gathered by anyone working honestly in the climate sciences.
That’s because the skeptical participants in this forum most emphatically DO.

Agreed, but it appears that the damage done goes beyond the forcible waste of spending power alone.
Quite understandably, we tend to focus upon how much spending power (and we must always consider it so, because the universal issue of fiat has removed real money from the world’s economies) is stolen from the private sector of our society by the pillaging goons of government.
We fail, however, to put appropriate focus on the deleterious CONSEQUENCES of government expenditures, which have enormous adverse effects in and of themselves.
In Austrian School economics, the concept of “malinvestment” is critically important. Not just the expenditure of liquid capital and other resources in activities which are underproductive or UNproductive in terms of yielding returns or performing functions of value, but the allocation of such resources to activities which are objectively DAMAGING both to private individuals and to the common weal.
Consider, for example, something as well-accepted as politically subsidized flood insurance for homeowners and businesses.
Without lower-than-market costs for such insurance policies, would people in these United States build homes or businesses in areas which are literally below sea level (e.g., in the regions of Louisiana around New Orleans) or on coastal barrier islands which suffer frequent inundations as the result of even lower-category hurricanes?
What we have in politically “sweet” flood insurance subsidy is a particularly vicious form of MALinvestment, the allocation of taxpayer spending power to an activity which induces people to take risks which are objectively NOT justified,and would not be facilitated by insurance provided in the purely private sector.
I’m a doctor. Every time I prescribe treatment, I’ve got to be aware of the potential for treatment-related (iatrogenic) adverse effects.
How the hell come we don’t take this into consideration when it comes to government spending?

Further to human action.If the sea is warming up then it is a source of heat and a resource for us not nessesarily a disaster,same applies to co2.
The technology already exists for generating electicity from steam generation in a partial vacuum at sea temperature in the tropics.A very usefull by product of this is copious quantities of fresh water.this could be piped ashore and made to make the desert bloom again thereby locking up the co2 again and producing food and timber and oil into the bargain.
Calculations have been done by people who have studied in this field and they reckon that 60,000 large oilrig type installations could provide the earths entire electricity and water needs.
So,heat and co2 are actually resources and opportunities for mankind not disasters requiring global economic martial law.

robotron,I agree that mudslinging and insults play no usefull part in getting to the bottom of the extent of AGW which is the crucial issue,not whether it exists or not.It appears that there is quite a large body of science that dissagrees with the notion that it is of a catastrophic order(as opposed to warming that may occur from sun activity for example which could potentially have disastrous consequences to some extent and which has already happened many times in the history of the earth)
I personally doubt that even when we finally master the science fullywe will be able to prevent any consequences from sun activity,although there are some interesting ideas in the geoengineering field.
However,I think the warmists have a basic flaw in their logic which is that they imply that there is a default setting at a sustainable level which,if we adopt further world government,carbon trading etc and try to set the level of co2 at the right level.
The history of the earth appears to me to be a lurching from one catastrophy,super volcanic event,asteroid impact,mass extinction etc to the next accompanied by huge variations in temperature and it seems rather unrealistic to think that we will be able to mitigate any of this by our actions.
Perhaps the collosal recources being spent on carbon taxes and regulationmight be better spent on providing food and shelter for the human race when the next inevitable catastrophy occurs which it inevitably will.perhaps any time.But unless I,m mistaken the movers and shakers already appear to have their shelters already constructed for that eventuality without any provision for us.
If that is in fact true,then that says something about this whole debate which is essentaily about risk assessment.

@Allan from Skye – “I agree that mudslinging and insults play no useful part in getting to the bottom of the extent of AGW which is the crucial issue, not whether it exists or not.”
I merrily disagree. When persistent malevolent thieving, strangling Watermelon fraudsters like our “robotron” critter voice their support for the pillage of innocent people and the destruction of the industrialized civilization upon which most of the world’s population depends for our very lives, are we to refrain from assessment of what is obvious in their character simply because plain language employed therein would be “mudslinging and insults” if applied to honest men and women?
Face it, Allan. This “robotron” putz gets addressed the way he does because he’s EARNED it, deserves it, and nothing else can satisfactorily inform other readers that he and his fellow “Liberal” fascist fellahin pose a real and present danger to human rights in their campaign to foist upon the public absolute and incontrovertable fraud as maskirovka disguising their predatory intent.
Your polite but entirely unjustified (and contrary-to-fact) concession that “Perhaps the colossal resources being spent on carbon taxes and regulation might be better spent on providing food and shelter for the human race when the next inevitable catastrophe occurs which it inevitably will.perhaps any time” is, in fact, MUCH too much of a concession to make when dealing with “robotron” and his ilk.
Bear in mind that you’re STILL granting the officers of civil government – the politicians and the bureaucrats – a legitimate role in prioritizing where those “colossal resources” extracted and otherwise created by purposeful human action should be allocated in anticipation of “the next inevitable catastrophe.”
Do you understand how invidious that attitude is? Who the hell says that popularity contest winners – adept at suckering voters – and career mediocrities on the public payroll are the people to whom we should give control of those “colossal resources” owned and best managed by those of us in the private PRODUCTIVE sector of our economy?
Even if your argument is for effective and efficient management of those “colossal resources,” government goons are the LAST people you want to put in control.
If the discipline of political economics teaches nothing else, it teaches that political interference in the market interplay of purposeful human action is hideously destructive and wasteful.

Anyhow, the truth of the matter is that this is an issue with no clear answer, but a lot of evidence suggesting that AGW is real and has consequences to some varying degree. Just that thought expressed here seems to have invoked a reflex response of “its a fraud,” a massive conspiracy to steal people’s money and/or usher in a new world order, etc etc, and you’re a “liberal fascist” for even suggesting it may be true.

Yep. You’re sorry that honestly skeptical critique of your Watermelon warmista fraudulence isn’t instantly expunged from this forum the way you delight in seeing it censored on the AGW propaganda sites.
Jeez, ain’t that too damned bad? A level playing field. How the hell can you scheming scum get anywhere if people are free to speak their minds and hammer you with supported argument based upon objectively verified facts?
As for comments that “disappear,” d’you mean to say that this is the first time you’ve had that happen to you on this site? Gawd, you hapless idiot, but the scripting used in these online discussion venues is anything BUT infallible. It’s something of a minor miracle that this RonPaul.com site’s programming works as well as it does.
I’ve had comments of my own whiffle off into nowhere. What of it? Why the hell don’t you make use of a decent Web browser like Firefox, and download something like the Lazarus add-on? Even if you don’t back up your “comments” content, such technical means permit you to make second attempts if the scripting messes up.
As I keep admonishing, dimwit, unwedge your head.

This is an open forum, and there are numbers of “professor” types and alleged scientists pushing the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) fraud.
None of them, however, seem inclined to “argue” in online venues like this one, where skeptical critique of their contentions and other lies can’t be removed, blocked, or otherwise suppressed.
For all the yammering noise about “settled science” supposedly supporting the AGW fraud, the credentialed con men you’d like to get involved here know only too damned well that encountering honest and knowledgeable people in a Web discussion site they can’t censor will get them hammered.
They’re terrified of that, and so they stick with Watermelon propaganda sites where they know that no one will ever be allowed to voice informed opposition to their preposterous bogosity.
As opposed to the theory of (and the facts behind) the evolution of species, the AGW fraud is a ploy to perpetrate immediate and immensely damaging attacks upon the individual human rights of real people.
What the AGW fraudsters seek, on the basis of a wholly “crippled conjecture” (see http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/64_07_Conjecture_to_Law.pdf ) is to punitively tax, forbid with “regulation,” and otherwise deny to people all over America the access to energy from petrochemical fuels which is needed for all of industrialized civilization and the division-of-labor economy upon which we depend for our very lives.
By contrast, the question of whether or not H. sapiens evolved from lower-order primates – like religion – “neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.”
“waste,” if you have ANY valid evidence or even reasoned argument to present in support of the “man-made global climate change” hokum, and not just a blank and drooling idiocy about how “humans have an impact” without understanding or appreciation of the SCALE of reality with which you’re dealing when you talk about the whole bloody planet, please put it forward.
Try thinking for yourself without relying on some “professor” to do your thinking for you.

On January 18, 2012 at 9:11 pm (see http://www.ronpaul.com/on-the-issues/global-warming/comment-page-14/#comment-421379 ) we have Ace81 yammering:
“Oh, so you don’t believe we are fighting wars over foreign oil, because we don’t want to dip into our reserve.”
Nope. I refer to the wonderful Lone-Ranger-and-Tonto joke and respond: “What you mean ‘we,’ Kemo Sabe?”
The crude oil and other petrochemical fuels reserves available in these United States exceeds those in any other country on the planet – including Russia – and more than three times as much as in Saudi Arabia.
Heck, more than Saudi Arabia, China, and Iran COMBINED. See http://www.energytribune.com/articles.cfm/6933/US-Has-Earths-Largest-Energy-Resources
Curiously, you’re agreeing with Ron Paul about “fighting wars over foreign oil.” They’re not only unconstitutional, but they’re unnecessary.
We’ve got plenty of the stuff right here. Drill, baby, drill.
So why aren’t we Americans being allowed to exploit these reserves? Could it be that the establishment in both parties – Republican and National Socialist – are bought and paid for by the Oil Patch guys and the banksters, who benefit by the current arrangements?
Yep.
And when it comes to your being “okay with killing jobs in one area” of the U.S. economy – NOT by way of free market “advancements in technology” but rather by government thuggery shoved down your innocent neighbors’ throats to deny people any choice except for what you scheming Watermelon sons of bitches have dictated for them – yeah, you’re a vicious, arrogant enemy of humanity, intent upon the aggressive violation of peoples’ rights to their lives, their liberties, and their property.
There’s a difference, shit-for-brains, between people CHOOSING to act according to their perceptions of better options and people being COMPELLED by “Liberal” fascist government goons to struggle along at higher cost, denied what they consider preferable ways in which to conduct their lives, just to satisfy your own personal lying asshole AGW fraud.
Such adaptations as we may need to undertake in the face of natural, NON-anthropogenic regional and global climate change will require access to energy, as inexpensively as it can be gotten. This means the efficient exploitation of domestic U.S. petrochemicals reserves and a complete end to taxpayer-subsidized, politician-mandated, and economically nonviable bullshit like Solyndra-style photovoltaic boondoggles and those negative-output bat mangling Teletubbies windmills.

Tucci78 and others, you need to calm down and realize that there are some people you will never convince. I didn’t read everything but I see you making tons of comments and not stepping back. If you want to make an argument, try citing things from wikipedia or a reputable source that show you’re point. Wikipedia articles use objective language, (you will not find “WTF?” in there), and are civil and non-assuming. Go there, and read the articles on global warming, including the current theory that some warming is caused by greenhouse gases emitted by human activity, as well as the criticisms to this theory and other theories.
“idiocy about anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions.” You do realize that humans are emitting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels, right? Now, posit a theory on how increasing the amount of energy trapped by the sun will not lead to an increased temperature on the earth.

One thing I cannot stand is blatant hypocrisy- made even worse by a delusional and severely over-inflated ego. Tucci78 is a perfect example. He is dismissive of any bit of evidence that may even remotely suggest AGW is not only possible, but probable. Then, he presents his often previously discredited holier than thou “evidence” as proof that AGW is a massive fraud. A fraud! That’s a pretty fucking bold statement for ANYONE to make without having done any of the hard research firsthand- let alone some hack internet troll.
Cretins like this Tucci78 do untold damage to real science. Scientists themselves are far from perfect (some are genuine assholes, and others make mistakes), but to accuse a massive contingent of them of an outright fraud while large corporations are pumping untold millions of dollars into our political system to gain billions in favors while “green” businesses are barely on the radar is RIDICULOUS. This guy is a shill for the oil and gas industry, which has been defrauding hard working Americans for about a century now. THEY have been collecting massive tax breaks. THEY have been spilling oil to the detriment of local economies in the US and around the world. THEY have quashed competition through hostile takeovers and divestitures. THEY have been buying politicians en masse through campaign contributions and lobbying, who have then voted to send our young people to WAR to defend THEIR overseas assets! And he’s accusing scientists of something even remotely comparable to this!? Anyone else see what is wrong with his logic? This is a very dangerous, murderous, anti-liberty, anti-science and anti-truth stand to take. We had a wonderful, robust light rail system throughout Los Angeles until the oil, tire, and insurance companies bought it all up and turned the trolleys into artificial reefs! Now we have persistent smog and gridlock, no place to lay new rail inexpensively, and are locked into high gas prices until electric cars get cheap or the government pulls eminent domain and forcibly removes people and businesses from their properties which NOBODY wants. Not even the most pro-rail environmentalists like myself want that.
I would be VERY surprised if Tucci78 is anything but a paid shill for oil and gas. A country GP?? Anyone spouting the kind of venom this man does to those he disagrees with has no business saving lives and managing people’s health and well being.

So get real, you talk about the scientific method, but spout bias after bias, the exact opposite of the immense foundations of modern science. But I suppose that fits. A family medicine doc knows a little about everything, but never enough about anything to make any important contribution to furthering our scientific understanding.
The true radicals are assholes like you who want to do uncontrolled experiments on our planet with no fucking clue about what’s really going to happen. I have no idea where you grew up or where you live, but I grew up in fantastic farmland that is now covered with housing developments and outlet malls, and humans burning fossil fuels.

Ah, the National Rifle Association. As one writer describes it, “…nothing more than the world’s oldest, largest victim disarmament (gun control) advocacy.”

Well, hell. One can only expect so much.
If my advocacy here of scrupulous scientific method is perceived by you to be naught but “bias after bias,” consider that it’s because you yourself know vanishingly little about how such method structures the dispassionately honest investigation of objective reality in order to devise and confirm abstract models describing how the physical universe works, and thereby provide the means for making reliable predictions about how the universe will function in the future.
Certainly that comes across in your witless whine about “…uncontrolled experiments on our planet with no fucking clue about what’s really going to happen.”
In actuality, the absence of honest investigation – defined as congruent with factual reality – on the side of the AGW fraudsters is precisely what should be the focus of your rage.
If you were in any way genuinely scientifically literate.
The problem you’re having is that you desperately WANT to believe that anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) can, does, and has caused significant adverse effects on the global climate despite the fact that you’ve been forced to confront the fact that the alarmists have no EVIDENCE that such is possible (or has happened) and all the evidence gathered and confirmed by way of honest investigation runs to the contrary.
All of it.

“And you think all the energy being burned all over the planet isn’t going to cause any impact at all??”
Nope. Just nothing significantly adverse (remember the Medieval Warm climate optimum, pal?) in the way of causing any statistically significant anthropogenic global climate warming by way of aCO2.
Look, NRA-boy, consider the critical differences between honest scientists and the AGW fraudsters who’ve got you so completely suckered.
Honest, methodically sound REAL scientists:
1) Hold empirical observation as superior to theory
2) Don’t violate rules of logic and reason
3) Retain observational data scrupulously
4) Report their investigative and analytical methods fully
5) Provide their data freely and fully to anyone seeking to assess the validity of those data and seek to replicate the study’s analyses
6) Can (and do) explain what findings would falsify their theories

@Allan from Skye – “who or what are the little acorn elves?”
ACORN is an acronym for a “Liberal” fascist organization called the “Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now,” inextricably linked with the criminal conduct of Barry Soebarkah (or “Jean Paul Ludwig” or “Harrison J. Bounel” or “Barack Hussein Obama” or whatever alias he’s currently using), including flagrant voter fraud during the 2008 elections.
See (among other sites online) http://rottenacorn.com/
ACORN was spectacularly exposed by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas, which has been responsible for a number of sting operations in which these critters have been recorded in sound and video perpetrating all kinds of crimes. See http://biggovernment.com/author/jokeefe/
Though ACORN was defunded by the Congress in the wake of O’Keefe’s exposes (see http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/12/eric_holder_acorn_and_cloward_1.html and http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2011/06/supreme_court_refuses_to_hear_acorn_appeal_of_defunding.html ), the personnel and organizational components of this criminally corrupt organization continue in operation, and their intimate association with our Fraudulence-in-Chief has been sustained throughout Odumbo’s usurpation of the presidency.
Their role in the campaigns of the National Socialist Democrat American Party (NSDAP, because they quit all association with the word “democratic” when they enacted Obamacare against the strenuous objection of a majority of their own core constituencies in 2009) continues.
They are among the many “off-the-books” goons working on behalf of our Mombasa Messiah against the law-abiding citizens of these United States.

Gawd, no. I’m a country GP. I’ve got a lifetime’s experience with people who have really “awe inspiring” intellects, and it’s more than enough to grind my muzzle into the fact that I’m no great shakes “in the world of ideas.”
What little qualification I have as a teacher is summed up by the words “Associate Professor of Family Medicine,” meaning I’m considered competent to keep most medical students and resident physicians from killing innocent patients.
I’m absolutely NOT disposed toward “Belittling those who aren’t as smart as” even I think I am. Patients and lay caregivers have undeniable rights, and there’s damn-all you can do as physician that can’t be undone by such people unless you can convince them otherwise.
That understood, these lying Watermelon leftists pushing the fantastic baloney of the AGW fraud are not my patients, but actually have predatory designs upon the lives, the liberties, and the property of the peaceable population at large, INCLUDING my patients and their families.
How am I to look upon them – and address them in public fora such as this one – except as dastardly peddlers of duplicity with arguable criminal intent in their every utterance?
Does one use a moderate language when warning people that a step or two beyond cover will expose them to an enemy sniper? Does one temperately tell an innocent bystander that he’s walking into the blast radius of a terrorist’s IED? Does one respond with mild milksop tones when communicating with somebody who’s entrusting his money to Jon Corzine or has preferred stock in a “too big to fail” corporation being “rescued” by Odumbo and his little ACORN elves?

As I’d pointed out in an earlier post where I’d discussed the angry “intemperate language” used by a character in the movie *As Good As It Gets* (1997) to express her rage and hatred for those “Fucking H.M.O. bastard pieces of shit!”, there are definitely contexts in which the use of such terms is not only appropriate but such that nothing else will do.
I appreciate your decision to go with what is “honest and true” (which is what I strive to be) in spite of the undeniable fact that I’m a “rude” son of a bitch when dealing with these leftie-luser Watermelon dorks.
Entirely as an aside, have you noticed yet that the inappropriate employment of the expression “ad hominem” in place of the simple word “insult” appears with great reliability among these “Liberal” fascists’ online posts when it’s never seen in the comments of libertarian or conservative folks?
It’s as if the “green on the outside, red to the core” ‘viro scum are all working off some single set of instructions and talking points.
Argumentum ad hominem is a fallacy of logic, wherein a position in argument is attacked on nothing more than the supposed or real character of the person voicing that position.
In the AGW kerfluffle, for example, you’ll find these alarmist assholes commonly claiming that a “denier” whose comments they cannot rebut has been motivated by money paid them by “Big Oil” or “Big Coal” or some such other mercantilist faction, and for that wholly unproven reason, the skeptical disputant’s observations and/or conclusions are to be dismissed.
That’s argumentum ad hominem.
It seems to me that the abjectly incorrect mock-”intellectual” use of a Latinate expression – ad hominem – is a proclivity reliable among these evidently uneducated putzes because somehow they conceive that it gives them an air of intelligence, and they’re desperate to SEEM capable of reasoned thought and articulation.
Considering the contempt in which these idiots hold scientific and other forms of intellectual integrity, and their stone-headed persistence in peddling demonstrated deceit, with what other than the saltiest language is it possible to convey to these dishonorable and worthless lying bastids how thoroughly hateful they are correctly perceived to be?

I’ve been narrowing down my research in the last few weeks, as the reality appears to be in sharp contrast with the IPCC expectations. I have traced this to a single source, from a 1981 Congressional hearing onwards, James Hansen. He has invented a theory which although I am unqualified to analyse besides the little physics I learnt at school, claims that CO2 will cause a ‘tipping point’ of runaway positive feedback, which is the only possible way even a quadrupling to around 1200ppm could do more than a couple of degrees C maximum. Bear in mind it also reduces its power with concentration as it uses up its spectrum, and no one on earth can say what this point will be as it’s never happened while we’ve been there to see it.
Anyhow, pull his theory apart, and it relies on the ocean storing up the heat and then suddenly releasing it into the atmosphere. My own physics tells me if I sit in a warm bath it cools steadily. The sea is a huge bath and presumably all water must behave in the same way. It does not store heat like a battery and then at a point even Hansen has not dared to calculate let it all go. Secondly he claimed the CO2 increase would cause the oceans to evaporate, cause a lot more clouds and trap heat like the difference between a clear and an overcast night. He did not however factor in any delay. So with a 50% increase there is no sign of the feedback and no one has said there would be a delayed reaction here either. If you watch puddles after the rain they do not wait and then let the water evaporate suddenly, it evaporates evenly. That must also apply to the sea using the same principle. Thirdly tipping points apply to objects with mass moving over 50% of the balance point and falling. They could also just be applied to flash points and boiling points. But none apply to adding gas to the atmosphere.
I then passed this along to my small team of scientists in my Facebook group, and all confirmed just by going to basic principles Hansen’s theory does indeed break the law of conservation of energy, matter and equilibrium. Basically all of them. What he is proposing is physically impossible and 30 years since his initial claims we’ve had around 20 years of a small rise (within normal parameters) and then no rise since around 2000, or a few years earlier without the El Nino peak in 1998. Every single climate policy around the world is based on one man’s theory, and none yet have realised what I have that it isn’t physically possible. He is comparing the climate with explosives and chemical reactions and the substances involved are all actually inert otherwise they couldn’t last long without combining to form something else.

(I’m responding here) lmao, he’s our president honey… and once everyone realizes it, we can actually work towards progress; instead, everyone wants to fight everything he stands for, just because it’s him. Some of the very same things many of you were rooting for are now the worst ideas ever, because he’s the face of them. Meaning, nothing any of you say is credible, your opinions sway with the wind (or the corporations providing the funding for your favorite candidates). Now as far as your silly question, which you couldn’t bother to research for yourself, we are already at unsafe levels. It shouldn’t be higher than 350ppm.
http://co2now.org/
We know CO2 can be deadly, there’s no question about that… that’s why people use to trap themselves in running cars in enclosed garages to kill themselves. CO2 poisoning is real, not some insane liberal fantasy. Deciding the exact line where it dangerous versus lethal, is impossible, since there are many factors that come into play. Trees and plants help to remove CO2 from the environment, so a place with lots of trees might be less affected by the same amount of CO2 than a place with less trees and/or more people. Like politics, our technology is suppose to be a forward movement, constantly setting the bar higher and thinking about our future. It shouldn’t remain stagnant just because a bunch of conspiracy theorists think the basis of the argument is a crock of shit. Even if it were (which it isn’t, and it’s obvious that it isn’t if you actually look around), why wouldn’t you want the bar set higher?

So many of your comments are well written and you seem to do a good job at providing links to support your statement. I personally am one who believes it’s foolish and a bit dangerous to dismiss man’s role in climate change as absolutely as you seem to, but I appreciate how well you articulate your argument. That is until I saw the above link you posted. I did not look at many of your links but happened to be familiar with that article by James Taylor at Forbes.com and know it to be based on a discredited study. Also, you make the same mistake in your comment that Mr. Taylor does repeatedly in his article by citing NASA as the ones dismissing global warming. It was their satellite and the data from it was interpreted by the authors of this discredited paper, not NASA “kicking the guts out of the AGW fraud”. Mr. Taylor’s article is quite silly and I was disappointed to see someone who had been making his argument relatively well throughout this thread use a poor source to support his view. It makes me question your other sources, as many of the others in this thread have already.

The Hansen infestation at NASA notwithstanding, it seems that the Agency has been kicking the guts out of the AGW fraud more recently.
See http://www.forbes.com/sites/jamestaylor/2011/07/27/new-nasa-data-blow-gaping-hold-in-global-warming-alarmism/”
So many of your comments are well written and you seem to do a good job at providing links to support your statement. I personally am one who believes it’s foolish and a bit dangerous to dismiss man’s role in climate change as absolutely as you seem to, but I appreciate how well you articulate your argument. That is until I saw the above link you posted. I did not look at many of your links but happened to be familiar with that article by James Taylor at Forbes.com and know it to be based on a discredited study. Also, you make the same mistake in your comment that Mr. Taylor does repeatedly in his article by citing NASA as the ones dismissing global warming. It was their satellite and the data from it was interpreted by the authors of this discredited paper, not NASA “kicking the guts out of the AGW fraud”. Mr. Taylor’s article is quite silly and I was disappointed to see someone who had been making his argument relatively well throughout this thread use a poor source to support his view. It makes me question your other sources, as many of the others in this thread have already.

@cazjax – “I personally am one who believes it’s foolish and a bit dangerous to dismiss man’s role in climate change as absolutely as you seem to….”
I don’t “dismiss man’s role in climate change,” but rather the unsupported contention that any such role is played by the emission of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) as the result of burning petrochemical fuels.
The notion was extraordinary when it was first bruited about circa 1974, and I thought it preposterous when it was brought to my attention in 1981, an overstatement by at least three orders of magnitude (probably more) of any such possible effect of a trace increase in a trace “greenhouse” atmospheric gas.
This is the mechanism by which the Watermelon alarmists seek the plunder of the world’s economy and the destruction of industrial civilization.
As for Taylor’s use of “a discredited study,” I appreciate your correction. I confess that I had been tickled by the notion that this manifestly corrupted federal agency had actually strayed into scientific rectitude.
I should have known better, of course. As part of the federal executive branch, NASA was (and is) completely in the control of our Mombasa Messiah, and therefore as thoroughly untrustworthy a source of information as anything else influenced by our “Liberal” fascist Fraudulence-in-Chief.
Anent “credible sources,” look carefully on the AGW fraudsters’ side, where you will find NOTHING upon which you can rely among these charlatans and their dupes for intellectual integrity in your examination of this subject.

@Tucci78 I apologize for suggesting that you dismiss man’s role in climate change. You are quite clear in your posts and I should not have made that assertion.
I consider myself very open-minded and always explore both sides of any issue I choose to find interest in. I’ve particularly enjoyed reading this thread as it is opening up a great deal of awareness for me personally on both sides of the issue of AGW. I’m a physical therapist and admittedly unqualified to debate from a scientific standpoint one way or the other. Ignorant in that regard, I have only the means to arrive at an opinion through writings and interpretations of those who are able to analyze the scientific data and relay it in ways a layperson, such as myself, will understand. You certainly seem to have a great deal of understanding about AGW and I have appreciated reading your opinions as you make your points in ways I can understand. However, as I mentioned in my original comment, I find myself on the side that believes aCO2 does play a role in climate change. You’ve mentioned in other comments there is not scientific evidence of the case, but it seems there is. The following is a link that offers several studies showing the absorption properties of CO2:http://agwobserver.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/papers-on-laboratory-measurements-of-co2-absorption-properties/
So I can have a better understanding of this issue and if you don’t mind, can you elaborate on your point that there is no evidence, perhaps provide a link to a site that is similar to the one I provided but with studies showing other conclusions. In questioning you I do not intend to offend you nor do I dismiss your opinions. My aim is to acquire an understanding of this issue greater my currently poor one attained through, most likely biased, media coverage and politicians with agendas. It may seem odd, but I often find I’m able to reach a greater understanding of an issue, not through articles, but rather the comments section of articles pertaining to fill-in-the-blank issue. Folks, such as yourself, that have not only an understanding, but a strong opinion, discussing/debating/arguing with those with an equal understanding but opposite opinion provides a nice opportunity to shed light on a subject, to see the “big picture”. I apologize for asking you to play the role of educator, but your posts suggest you are passionate about this subject and I feel someone like yourself can help me become more knowledgeable about AGW. Thank you in advance for your time, I look forward to any and all information you are kind enough to offer.

@cazjax – “I’m a physical therapist and admittedly unqualified to debate from a scientific standpoint one way or the other.”
Like hell you are. I’m just a country GP myself, and none of the physical therapists with whom I’ve ever worked have been dimwits.
The Watermelon propaganda site you’d been suckered by is perpetrating suppressio veri, suggestio falsi (the suppression of complete and truthful information in order to lead the victim to a conclusion contrary to fact).
The author of this 2009 (note: pre-Climategate, most recently updated in February 2010) Web page discusses nothing except what are effectively only LABORATORY measurements of carbon dioxide absorption properties. This really ought to have clued you in.
The Earth’s atmosphere is an extremely complex system with nonlinear responses to a great many interacting physical, chemical, and biological inputs, the majority of which you’ll discern had been left unconsidered in the studies cited.
While much is made by the coordinated cadre of climate charlatans about alleged positive feedback mechanisms amplifying the miniscule energy absorption induced by aCO2, NEGATIVE feedback mechanisms known to work in the atmosphere IRL are for the greatest part simply ignored.
See for example http://joannenova.com.au/2009/12/the-one-flaw-that-wipes-out-the-crisis/
(Again I resort to Australian science educator Joanne Nova’s work. On your cited Web site note one commenter’s hatred and dread of Ms. Nova’s efforts. Her pre-Climategate *Skeptic’s Handbook* [available by way of http://joannenova.com.au/global-warming/#handbooki ] is also well-suited to your purposes in trying to understand the real – and utterly insignificant – effects of aCO2 in atmospheric heat energy retention, putting the facts of the matter in language that doesn’t require an undergraduate degree in meteorology to understand.)
A physical therapist works at all times in the environment of the real world, and understands that the “laboratory” results machined for publication in the physiatry literature are commonly incongruent with what you see in your own practice, among your own patients.
Same thing here.

Sorry to take so long to respond. Your comment struck a nerve as you inferred I, not only lied about my career, but am also dimwitted. Neither should matter if you were able to offer a sound argument. As I have mentioned, I have found your comments to be well stated, so much so that I dismissed the abusive nature in the tone you tend to speak with. I have followed plenty of threads on a variety of topics and know those who speak with passion and conviction occasionally come across as arrogant. Personally, that is not enough for me to dismiss the substance of what one is offering. However, I have also found that there are times where those who are truly arrogant passionately scream with conviction that any who disagree is wrong (in your case “wrong” is interchangeable with alarmist, fascist, supporting “watermelon propaganda”, and whatever else you throw out there in place of sound argument). I will admit right now, I was very close to being sucked in by AGW propaganda, it’s just not propaganda from the side you ignorantly bark those who disagree with you must have fallen for. It was from the skeptic side, your side, you. I spent a great deal of time over the past couple of days trying to grasp a better understanding of this issue, most of which I did with the nuggets of knowledge you’ve treated us with on this thread. No scientific support for AGW is your theme. WTF! That is absolutely false! Disagree with the studies that have shown it, but do not suggest there is none, there is quite a bit. I apologize for not providing links at this point but will do so tomorrow ( I’ve had a long day not being a physical therapist). I did check out the joannova link you provided as well as looked into her “skeptical handbook” you suggested. I admit, I have not read it her book. That being said, it does not seem to be a book with very much scientific support. In addition, you dismissed my “watermelon propaganda” site link, but offer a link that can be argued is AGW skeptic propaganda. Again, I apologize for not providing you with links but, after I get some sleep, I will provide them to hopefully get your thoughts what I’ve found. Please keep in mind in any response you provide, I WANT TO UNDERSTAND why you feel/know/dismiss AGW. James Taylor and Joann Nova seem to have agendas (Mr. Taylor for sure, I’m not sure about Mrs. Nova but from what I’ve found I feel it’s fair to state). In addition to what I’m sure will include your typical abusive, name calling, childish fluff, pass on a site listing some studies debunking this AGW myth. Judging by your numerous posts, this will be extremely difficult for you. Perhaps it will help to keep in mind that I AM NOT SAYING YOU ARE WRONG. What I am saying is stop being a douche, calling all who question a (fill in the blank name those without sound argument pull out of their ass), and offer something more substantial. Saying something like there is no evidence (which there is, if there wasn’t this wouldn’t be an issue would it?) or any evidence provided clearly has an agenda, is weak sir. Anyway, I can hardly keep my eyes open but eagerly anticipate your response. I will put together some links for your consideration tomorrow morning and hope you provide some mine. Good night sir.

I feel like this “consensus” argument needs to be posted again, as more than 31,000 scientists have signed the petition against the man-made global warming fraud, of which over 9,000 have PhDs. You have to wonder if they are all wacko scientists as the AGW proponents claim. Or is it an anti-AGW conspiracy? Ooh… This site lists names of these individuals and they are not ashamed of their positions like many AGW proponents who hide behind an institutional umbrella.

Because stupid sons of bitches like you have demanded that both federal and state politicians be given powers far in excess of those prescribed in the U.S. Constitution and the constitutions of the several states, enabling those politicians to VIOLATE “the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” (actually, in most of these charters and other documents, it’s the rights to life, to liberty, and to property) because you “Liberal” fascists have – generation after generation – conceived it to be to your purposes to fuck your innocent neighbors out of everything they have.
Politicians being almost without exception whores prepared to sell themselves to anybody with enough money, they’ve naturally snuggled up with those “big corporations” you claim to hate so much (though I’m sure you don’t mind George Soros and David Suzuki and other similarly well-heeled “Liberal” fascists buying government influence to fuck over THEIR customers and competitors).

“Again, I will remind everyone that crony capitalism (not the Adam Smith kind) is precisely why we’re stuck in a rut with fossil fuels- and why Monsanto has gobbled up the livelihoods of sustainable farmers.”
Much as I’d like to give my colleague, Dr. Locke, credit for having come up with “…and property,” he wasn’t the originator of the concept that human beings have an unalienable and necessary right to property. He was simply – in the *Two Treatises* he published anonymously in 1688 – responsible for one of the best-known articulations of the idea.
I’m aware that Jefferson and the other members of the Second Continental Congress chose to re-word the statement in the Declaration of Independence despite the fact that “…and property” had been explicit in the Declaration of Colonial Rights (October 14, 1774) issued by the First Continental Congress as well as in the precedent Virginia Declaration of Rights authored by George Mason.
As for “crony capitalism” and Adam Smith (*The Wealth of Nations*), what you’re describing with the former expression is precisely the kind of mercantilism against which Dr. Smith inveighed in his 1776 book.
It’s not so much that we’re “stuck in a rut with fossil fuels” but that petrochemicals fuel technologies continue to be the most cost-efficient means of providing an industrial civilization with energy generation. That’s very much a function of the laws of thermodynamics, and when you’ve come up with a way to repeal those laws, you’ll be sure to let all of us know, won’t you?
Oh, yeah, and this eternal Watermelon fixation on Monsanto (do you hate glypho specifically, or are you just brainfucked about their “Roundup Ready” genmod seed strains?).
Insofar as I’ve been able to determine, most of what’s objectionable about Monsanto is their “crony capitalism” employment of government influence to screw their consumers and their competitors, and there doesn’t seem to be all that much in this regard that can’t be much mitigated by getting Monsanto’s bought politicians to hellangone out of the agricultural marketplace.
Would you care to explain a bit more about your babbling animosity pertinent to Monsanto?

@Swedish guy – “I understand that by just looking at carbon dioxide you can probably fool yourself into believing that global warming is a hoax.”
No, it’s not a hoax. A hoax is “…a deliberately fabricated falsehood made to masquerade as truth” … “without the intention of gain or of damaging or depriving the victim.”
This “greenhouse” AGW hoo-rah is actually a fraud, defined in criminal law as “…an intentional deception made for personal gain or to damage another individual…. The specific legal definition varies by legal jurisdiction. Fraud is a crime, and also a civil law violation. Defrauding people or entities of money or valuables is a common purpose of fraud, but there have also been fraudulent ‘discoveries’, e.g., in science, to gain prestige rather than immediate monetary gain.”
As regards the “Cargo Cult Science” practitioners peddling the AGW fraud, it’s definitely for “immediate monetary gain” as well as “prestige.” See http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/images/stories/papers/originals/climate_money.pdf (and this item only catalogs their peculations up ’til 2009, pre-Climategate 1.0).
Regarding both carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH3) greenhouse gas effects you’re utterly and completely screwed. To whatever extent either of these atmospheric components induce such an effect, empirical evidence runs counter to the premises in which you’ve uncritically invested your confidence.
For example, analyses of the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) satellite information has shown that the observed behavior of radiation fluxes implies negative feedback processes associated with relatively low climate sensitivity.
Not positive – as your AGW fraudsters have yammered, but NEGATIVE.
Authors of the earliest (2009) analysis – Lindzen & Choi, GRL – even compared the ERBE satellite data to the behavior of 11 computerized atmospheric models based on the premise of “greenhouse” forcing by the same sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and demonstrated that the purely theoretical models displayed much higher climate sensitivity than is inferred from the actual instrumental data obtained by way of the ERBE observations.
The disconnection from objective fact among the AGW alarmist charlatans is simply a hideously BAD excuse for science, and what you’re retailing is the result of “…an opposition between fact and bad theory, a case of empirical reality versus abstract principles that purport to define the way things work but don’t.” (http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/5.02/ffsimon_pr.html).
Dr. Simon wasn’t discussing the AGW bogosity, but the interviewer’s interpretation of Simon’s position fits here quite nicely, doesn’t it?

@rhess595 – “The National Academy of Sciences is like the Sports Hall of Fame for scientists. Check out their position on climate change issues.”
This is the logical fallacy of appeal to authority.
Were you familiar with the history of the sciences (and especially the history of medicine), you’d realize that you’ve gotten hold of one of THE most bogus excuses for an argument imaginable.
I’ve already recommended the example of obstetrician Ignatz Semmelweis (you’re online; look it up) and the iatrogenic conveyance of infectious disease in the years before Pasteur’s germ theory was developed and accepted.
“Established” authorities in the sciences tend reliably to be invested professionally, politically, emotionally, and – if we can use the word – intellectually in what they perceive to be “the consensus.” Vanishingly few of them will ever be genuinely innovative or hospitable to ideas that run contrary to their prior work and/or their meal tickets.
Especially (in this era of politically-dictated government funding for almost all “pure” scientific research in atmospheric physics and allied disciplines) those who know that they’ll have to continue their reliance on taxpayer dollars allocated by whores in public office.
Better to look to scientists with experience in the APPLICATION of scientific principles and investigative efforts that have to get correct results of they get fired.
Physicist Jeff Glassman is one such, having worked for Hughes Aircraft in the development of missiles for the U.S. military (see http://judithcurry.com/2010/11/12/the-denizens-of-climate-etc/#comment-58816). Now retired, he’s something of a regular in online discussions of the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) fraud, and I recommend to you his Web log, http://www.rocketscientistsjournal.com/ where he archives and discusses his research on the subject.

Yep. Vide infra, and then go dig through the C.R.U. correspondents’ e-mails, especially those most recently made available in the open tranche of FOIA2011.zip (“Climategate 2.0″).
The “consensus” fraudsters not only had powerful doubts as to the validity of their cement-headed excuse for conjecture as to putative mechanism and effects of “man-made global climate change” but concerted the suppression of those doubts in order to ensure that their various allegedly independent statements were free of any admission of these misgivings, and keep their concerted politically motivated “message” devoid of any potentially disquieting deviations into honest scientific method.
“Except that governments have been dragging their heels on he scientific consensus for years.”
Not really. The politicians (and their bureaucratic servitors) have never had any real interest in the factual aspects of the AGW scam.
Heck, the overwhelming majority of them are lawyers.
Almost without exception, said government thugs have acted on this issue out of nothing more than their perceptions of political expediency and personal advantage, endorsing or opposing the fraudsters’ “We’re All Gonna Die!” yowling as best served their respective purposes and the priorities of their “contributors.”

Why do people like you rape dogs and sodomize corpses? Criminal mens rea varies so much among moral degenerates like you “Liberal” fascists….
Not that I’m “charging them with criminal acts.” It’s agreed among H.M. government in the United Kingdom that Prof. Jones of the C.R.U. did very much commit a felony in evading the obligations of the prevailing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), but that the absurdly short statute of limitations – 18 months – had already run before the crime was brought to the attention of the appropriate officers of the law.
Now on the matter of CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY to violate the provisions of that law – revealed to the general public last November in the FOIA2011.zip email archive – there’s been no expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and there have been calls in the U.K. to pursue the criminal investigation of Prof. Jones and his accessories over the past couple of months.
But scientists do NOT “work in total anonymity,” you wonderful ignoramus. A critical element in each such person’s curriculum vitae (“resume” to an asshole like you) is the creator’s bibliography and other publication credits, and these very public credits are so important to reputation in all regards that it’s quite common for many such credentialed critters to claim credit as authors in articles and textbooks to which they actually contributed no work whatsoever.
It’s something of a running sick joke in academic circles. Of course you, being a friggin’ dolt, wouldn’t know dick about what goes on in academia.
Prestige and reputation determine promotion prospects AND facilitate the approval of government grants-in-aid for the alleged “research” undertaken by the AGW fraudsters. The ability of such a fraudster increases the value of even a complete hack like “Hockey Stick Graph” perpetrator Dr. Michael Mann to whatever institution carries him on the payroll, and helps to conceal the reeking smell of their incompetence.

As far as your silly assertion that I’m okay with killing jobs in one area, that is what advancements in technology do. Everyday, people are creating things that destroy the need for other things and/or people. If going greener means one field dies while another prospers, oh well, that’s life. Let’s shoot automobile companies, because they killed the horse trade industry. Let’s kill computer companies because they killed typewriter companies, or better yet, let’s kill factory workers who put farms out of business. What you said, doesn’t even make sense, and was a lame attempt at an attack towards me. Try again.
It’s funny that one of your arguments was, that if the climate is changing we need to adapt, but you don’t seem to think we should adapt to technological changes. No, that should remain stagnant so that everyone can stay in the same exact jobs they currently hold, because Tucci says so. You are a babbling contradiction.

@Ace81@Shaman4@rhess595 – “‘Liberal Fascists’, huh? You really like to use that term.”
Well, you’ve quoted it incorrectly, doofus. “Liberal” (in quotation marks and capitalized at all times) because these authoritarian scum are the anthesis of genuine political liberals – who established the definition of the term in the 19th Century as denoting those who advocated the defense of individual civil rights against the usurpations and other transgressions of government thugs – and you’ve inappropriately capitalized the word “fascists,” which was most notably appreciated to be the real political position of these “progressives” who had made the term “Liberal” a stench in the nostrils of honest men and women.
This had been brought most prominently to recent public attention by conservative writer Jonah Goldberg in his 2008 book *Liberal Fascism*, of which I suspect you’d idiotically heard because of your use of inappropriate capitalization above.
Write it simply as “Liberal” fascism and you’ve got it correctly.
I employ such usage first because it is undeniably technically correct, and second because (as Mr. Goldberg demonstrated) it causes you advocates of government thuggery to squeal and howl and bleed from your nostrils and soil your skivvies.
Disgraceful and ugsome, but everything else about you friggin’ fascisti is so qualified.
As for you in particular, you’re really quite the completely predictable target, aren’t you, doofus?

Let’s get one thing straight here. The biggest fraud of this century was the way the financial industry sucked trillions out of the real economies of the world to pay for gambling debts based on fraudulent financial devices and illegal practices of the most respected men in town. Non of whom will ever be held accountable for plunging millions of people into a lifetime of extreme poverty and all the humiliations and social erosion that goes with it. NOT the scientists who present Climate Change as a possible threat based on their research. (IF these scientists were involved in planned intergovernmental conspiracy to wrestle away your liberties they are doing a horrible job of it as the main governments seem to be ignoring climate treaty’s as a matter of course and firing on ahead with oil wars, corporatism etc etc). So let’s be big here and admit one thing. NONE OF US HERE know for 100% certain whether climate change is real or not. If you claim to you are a FUCKING FRAUD and a charlatan. No single scientist on either side has that breath of knowledge. So let’s disregard the fantasist like Tucci78 and the likes that say people who are worried about what the scientists are telling us are involved in some kind of orchestrated lie that they knowingly peddle as a violence against their fellow man. Let’s look at the dilemma itself as reasonable adults. I ask you reasonable adult commentators here to ignore the likes of Tucci’s insults and posts completely as I believe they are a horrible waste of energy and time. So can we begin our debate by adressing this dilemma – Even if the scientific community was split 50 – 50 on the issue wouldn’t that be enough to err on the side of extreme caution and do something about our fossil fuel dependency?

@Friedlon7 – “Let’s get one thing straight here. The biggest fraud of this century was the way the financial industry sucked trillions out of the real economies of the world to pay for gambling debts based on fraudulent financial devices and illegal practices of the most respected men in town.”
No, not really. If we’re discussing financial chicanery, the recently flourishing Vampire Squid types (at whose collective crotch the “Liberal” fascists’ beloved Hubshi Halfling greedily suckles) are pikers compared to the Jeckyll Island coterie who shoved the Federal Reserve System down the nation’s throat in 1913, with Richard Nixon thrown in courtesy of his 1971 “Nixon Shock” finalizing the decoupling of the U.S. dollar from even the illusion of specie payment.
Let’s keep some proper perspective in that regard, okay?
As a person trained in the scientific method and in the practice of the medical profession (which depends heavily upon methodological integrity in scientific and clinical investigation), I suppose I’m inclined to consider the AGW fraud as particularly heinous because nothing of its like – and certainly nothing on the same scale – has ever happened in any of the sciences.
The general economy has been manipulated, raided, hoaxed, pillaged, and generally screwed to death by government goons since records were being kept in cuneiform, and will always be so treated as long as mankind succumbs to the fantasy that government is a “necessary evil” as opposed to simply pure and absolute villainy.
But the sciences were supposed to be kept grounded in objective reality, and thereby forced by confrontation with hard facts into a condition of honesty.
By contrast, the damages done to the integrity of science by the AGW fraudsters over the past thirty years makes John Wayne Gacy look like Father Damien.
Not to mention the exquisitely real international monetary damages inflicted, which have long since been calculated in the multi-trillion-dollar ranges and which are still ongoing despite the overwhelming tide of evidence demonstrating that the “greenhouse gas” blunder of the mid-1970s had become a thorough and undeniably concerted fraud well before the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was created by the scheming predators of the United Nations in 1989.

Nope. Your proposed forcible and viciously aggressive violation of individual human rights in order to compel innocent people to suffer your blankly idiotic error “on the side of extreme caution” completely, callously, and criminally dismisses the VERY real costs (both direct costs and opportunity costs) you and your co-religionists want to force upon your neighbors like the morally rotten rabid dogs you keep proving yourselves to be in this forum.
Again and again, you “Liberal” fascist fucktards keep pushing this “precautionary principle” bullshit as if there were any justification whatsoever for the concept of “man-made climate change” by way of greenhouse gas effects induced by the anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (aCO2) into the atmosphere.
This in spite of the fact that all empirical (and validated) EVIDENCE continues to run contrary to the unspeakably brain-dead conjecture that’s supposed to be the “scientific” basis of this whole preposterous flaming idiocy you keep squealing about.
Were there a shred of demonstrably confirmed EVIDENCE that your concern were based in factual reality, you unspeakable asswipes have yet to pull it forth from between your flabby buttocks and wave it about.
This is strong presumptive indication that you’ve got no basis upon which you can ever hope to persuade your intended victims to impoverish themselves and their families on the basis of your “precautionary principle” bullshit, and all you’ve got left is your confidence that government goons will do it for you by way of armed thuggery.

Yet another of your spectacularly stupid bad choices, doofus. In the factual reality from which you and your co-religionists have decoupled yourselves, “deforestation” does not occur without REforestation, and in fact purposeful human action to cultivate more trees has tended reliably – all over the planet – to have resulted in increases in forested area.
I had directed attention to a 1993 interview with “doomslayer” Julian Simon (at http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/5.02/ffsimon_pr.html ) who spent much of his life really pissing off Watermelon assholes like you and your co-religionists by examining catastrophist caterwauling and proving it invariably wrong.
Discussing in that interview the reforestation of – for example – 90%-deforested Puerto Rico which has re-forested quite nicely:
===
“It’s the difference,” [Dr. Simon] says, “between a speculative analysis of what must happen versus my empirical analysis of what has happened over the long sweep of history.”
The paradox is that those abstract principles and speculative analyses seem so very logical and believable, whereas the facts themselves, the story of what has happened, appear wholly illogical and impossible to explain. After all, people are fruitful and they multiply but the stores of raw materials in the earth’s crust certainly don’t, so how can it be possible that, as the world’s population doubles, the price of raw materials is cut in half?
It makes no sense. Yet it has happened. So there must be an explanation.
===
Thus your “deforestation” yammering has similarly been shown to be bullshit, and none among your zombie ranks have yet been able to challenge any of the observation of EVIDENCE which runs counter to your beloved blank idiocy.
Even though Dr. Simon died in 1998, he’s still plaguing you blithering idiots.
Ain’t that just delightful?

Yep. What else can be the results of your “Liberal” fascist Watermelon bullshit pushing for the implementation of government policy – in other words, aggressive violent force used in coercion against innocent human beings to compel them to make changes in their activities which are neither of benefit to their well-being nor ever likely to be undertaken voluntarily – except violations of their unalienable human rights to life, to liberty, and to property?
Now, we all know that “Liberal” fascist fucktards like you grabby, smarmy, stupidly self-absorbed Watermelon assholes wander through life with wholly unjustified delusions of competence and a sense that nobody is ever allowed to question your psychotic noise, but – just as with “man-made global climate change,” objective reality trumps your sick, twisted, perverted little fantasies.
Your “attempt to reduce global warming” by forcing your neighbors at government gunpoint to pay increased costs for literally everything they and their families need to live (food, clothing, housing, heat, clean water, EVERYTHING) because you arrogant little ignoramuses believe – in the religious sense – that anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) induces “global warming” is demonstrably both impossible and damaging to your victims.
As a matter of fact, should they turn on you and do to you what you so richly deserve, libertarian though I am, I’d have to consider it both justifiable homicide and a needful promotion of public health.

@Ace81 – “…here you go posting information from before 98 and it’s suppose to be credible.”
No, asshole, it was published in 1993. Dr. Simon passed away in 1998. His observations and predictions, however (unlike those of your “consensus” AGW fraudsters masquerading as climate scientists) continue to prove robust.
The observation of such reliable predictions is the definition of a scientific assertion’s validity, and such validity is precisely what is lacking in your beloved and utterly bogus “man-made global warming” conjecture.
To the surprise of nobody except those duped by you Watermelon idiots, the places where reforestation is being curtailed tend to be those where the “biofuels” scam is being perpetrated (see http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/images/stories/papers/originals/biofuel_issues.pdf ) and where poor people in the Third World have been prevented from “decarbonizing” – which results reliably from the substitution of petrochemical fuels like methane for firewood and dried animal dung – by the political machinations of you “Liberal” fascist transnational progressives.
To quote again from that interview with Julian Simon:
“What’s unstated in all this is that when you deforest, you go to zero, that you go to pavement. That’s how I put it, that ‘you go to pavement.’ This is why people get mad at me, because at this point in my talks I show a slide of pavement, but the pavement has weeds growing through it. I can take you to places of abandoned roads in the rain forest that have trees growing out of them.”
To the extent that people are not interfered with in their efforts to gain access to energy by way of means like petrochemical fuels, the benefits more than justify the costs (both direct and opportunity costs) they sustain as the result of purposeful and/or simple laissez-faire reforestation.
Not that you blithering jerkwads will ever get that simple fact.

@Ace81 – “Oh so now cost of living is your defense?”
What d’you mean “now,” shit-for-brains? Applying the intellectual integrity of scientific method to the examination of economic reality is congruent with the same principles with which I’ve approached the pure fraudulence of the AGW contention.
Your parroting of the “peak oil” panic is completely at odds with the realities of petrochemicals exploration, discovery, and extraction.
But you certainly know that already, don’tcha?
One of the reasons why you “Liberal” fascist fucktards keep sputtering and squealing about dirigible deep hard-rock drilling, fractional casing perforation, and hydraulic fracturing (subsumed under the slang term “fracking”). That half-century-old technology employed on the expanding range of discovered reserves – especially in the Bakken – promises so reliably to drop the consumer costs associated with petrochemical fuels and feedstocks that your bullshit about “renewable energy sources” becoming cost-competitive is simply flushed off the board without leaving more than your stench behind.
As for any desire on my part to “…to murder anyone who [keeps pushing] your lies” (correction applied), it’s not MY wish that you get what you deserve.
Just my prediction that it could well happen. It’s a risk you Watermelon assholes don’t seem to realize that you’re taking.
Threaten people’s well-being by deliberately, maliciously, and to no possible benefit pushing up their “cost of living,” and they’ll continue in increasing numbers coming to the conclusion that social comity and good civil order will benefit substantially by your precipitous removal.

@Tucci78 If cost of living is your biggest issue, wake up, cost in living has been artificially rising for decades, due to a lot of other things. And stop acting like trees and oil aren’t issues, they are, they do not produce as rapidly as they are being used, therefore, if we don’t slow down our dependency on fossil fuels and trees, the cost of anything affiliated with these things will rise dramatically, thereby increasing the cost of living… but what makes it worse, is that now we’ll be fighting even harder for basic necessities, not just paying more. You are fighting a fight you can’t win. Cost of living will rise either way, so, do we allow it to rise a bit now and save our earth, or do we allow it to rise later and do nothing about the damage? The former, seems to be more sensible. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting a better environment, and asking that the government hold the corporations (not individuals) to higher standards. Our cities do it regularly, some require recycling, taxes pay for that… and that’s okay, definitely better than the alternative. You seem to think that anyone who thinks something should be done about global warming, should be shot, because they are essentially allowing the government to control their lives, it’s an absurd analogy. I don’t speak for everyone, but I;m sure I speak for many… we want stricter regulations on the corporations, we want less dependency on fossil fuels, we want clean and renewable energy, we want them to stop cutting down forests, it’s not that difficult to comprehend. Believing we need to do something about global warming, doesn’t mean we are looking for more taxation on pollution, it means we don’t want the excess pollution or the loopholes that often come when there is too much money in government.

Global warming, is real and evident to anyone who looks around. Mountaintops are being cut off for coal mining, icebergs are being used for bottled water, trees are being cut down for everything (even though there are many alternatives such as hemp and bamboo), technology is killing us, everything requires energy, but we’re using bad energy, energy that pollutes, creates disease, destroys land, and isn’t renewable (which means it will get more expensive as it runs out).

@Ace81 But herein lies the reason why the likes of Tucci get so mad. The Libertarian ideology at some point must clash with Climate Change philosophically. The puritan ethic of libertarianism evolved out of radical individual responsibility before God. The opposite to Catholic vision where rich men could not enter the kingdom that the poor would inherit. In Puritanism the rich were virtuous and deserved and the poor were wretched because of their immorality and sinfulness. Eventually this evolved to the extreme American traditional value on property rights and the sacrosanct ownership by the individual whereby any damage or encroachment to said property was a most severe violation. If the tea party and the libertarians admit to GW – corporations, factories, industrialists will be guilty of an extreme violation of this basic puritanical principle. They will be breaking their own most dearly held law. THEY CANNOT face this dilemma so they expend heaps of dollars and energy distracting, waylaying, delaying, blurring the argument. As I keep saying to understand the likes of Tucci forget the psuedo-science argument. It’s a total waste of your time and energy looking up his ancient out of date sources and wacky experts. (The first reference he pointed me towards were a fucking economist and a fucking guy who worked for the mining industry. Conflict of interest anyone?). Just look at their ideology and you’ll understand everything you need to know. Creationists are the same. They have a belief and they fashion the science to fit that rather than looking at the science and forming your opinion form there.

Schmucklet, just what the hell do you THINK (if you think at all) you know about libertarianism, anyway? Have you read anything of our literature, either online or in print?
Surely not Heubert’s recent (2010) *Libertarianism Today* (http://blog.mises.org/13292/huebert-is-here/) or any of the many other books (see Stephen Kinsella’s listing and links at http://www.libertarianstandard.com/2010/07/16/the-best-introduction-to-libertarianism-ever/ ) readily available.
No such tie-in with any sort of dedication to the Great Sky Pixie or any other hallucination of divine ordination.
Writer L. Neil Smith boils the whole libertarian philosophy down to this:
===
A libertarian is a person who believes that no one has the right, under any circumstances, to initiate force against another human being for any reason whatever; nor will a libertarian advocate the initiation of force, or delegate it to anyone else.
Those who act consistently with this principle are libertarians, whether they realize it or not. Those who fail to act consistently with it are not libertarians, regardless of what they may claim.
===
The way in which I “clash” with the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) fraud “philosophically” is in these pseudoscientists’ violations of scientific method – in other words, the philosophy of science.
Again and again and again – as you keep squirming and whining and shitting your pants to evade – your idiocy has no EVIDENCE behind it. None thirty years ago, none today, and no sign of anything remotely like EVIDENCE coming forth at any time in the next thirty or forty or a hundred years.

Okay. If it’s “real” (much less “very real”), you’ve got to have objectively verified EVIDENCE of both the existence of the “situation” and the comparatively less pathogenic higher-priced alternative sources of chemical feedstocks and fuel derived from petrochemical sources.
“Global warming, is real and evident to anyone who looks around.”
Sure, it’s “real and evident.” It simply isn’t man-made.
It’s the real cause of the global warming that’s been going on all over the solar system at a slow, more or less steady rate for the past three centuries or so. See http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/CFJ_JGlassman_SolarGlobalWarming.pdf
If you’re proposing that your victims – i.e., the majority of the innocent human population of our planet – be forced by government thugs to abandon the presently most cost-efficient means of accessing the material and energy resources provided by petrochemicals, you’re obliged to demonstrate that you’ve got something that fulfills the requirements of a real cost-benefit analysis to replace petrochemicals extraction and uses.
If you have such a proposition – instead of just the frothing, senseless, Watermelon asshole hysteria you keep screeching – you’re obliged to trot it out and present it persuasively.
Persuade, you stupid putz.
I know that anything other than extortion and pillage is beyond your pitiful excuse for a skills set, but let’s presume that you vest any value in voluntary choice among the people you’re trying to fuck over, and see what you’ve got in the way of persuasive discourse.

@Ace81 – “Needless to say, that doesn’t mean we should ignore the situation altogether. It is a very real situation.”
Okay. If it’s “real” (much less “very real”), you’ve got to have objectively verified EVIDENCE of both the existence of the “situation” and the comparatively less pathogenic higher-priced alternative sources of chemical feedstocks and fuel derived from petrochemical sources.
“Global warming, is real and evident to anyone who looks around.”
Sure, it’s “real and evident.” It simply isn’t man-made.
It’s the real cause of the global warming that’s been going on all over the solar system at a slow, more or less steady rate for the past three centuries or so. See http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/CFJ_JGlassman_SolarGlobalWarming.pdf
If you’re proposing that your victims – i.e., the majority of the innocent human population of our planet – be forced by government thugs to abandon the presently most cost-efficient means of accessing the material and energy resources provided by petrochemicals, you’re obliged to demonstrate that you’ve got something that fulfills the requirements of a real cost-benefit analysis to replace petrochemicals extraction and uses.
If you have such a proposition – instead of just the frothing, senseless, Watermelon asshole hysteria you keep screeching – you’re obliged to trot it out and present it persuasively.
Persuade, you stupid putz.
I know that anything other than extortion and pillage is beyond your pitiful excuse for a skills set, but let’s presume that you vest any value in voluntary choice among the people you’re trying to fuck over, and see what you’ve got in the way of persuasive discourse.
Not that there’s a nitrocellulose hound’s chance in hell that you can do it.

@Ace81 – “If cost of living is your biggest issue, wake up, cost in living has been artificially rising for decades, due to a lot of other things.”
Nope. As I’ve made it quite clear again and again, my “biggest issue” is the rank duplicity of the “consensus” con artists violating scientific method by way of their “Cargo Cult Science” antics.
That notwithstanding, the political economics of the AGW fraud are inescapable, and I’m perfectly willing – as you “Liberal” fascists are not – to discuss them. In this as in all else, you’re completely screwed.
The funny thing about “cost of living…artificially rising for decades” is that such is true primarily if one fails to adjust for – among other things – the rate of currency counterfeiting by the Federal Reserve System and the tax gouges perpetrated by federal, state, and local government thugs exceeding their lawful scope of activities under the various charters which prescribe their authorities and responsibilities.
As human ingenuity has kept effecting improvements in productivity (only to have such productive improvements in material well-being thieved away by government and the crony “capitalists” working schwanze-in-condom to screw the citizenry), the real costs – as opposed to inflated dollar-denominated prices – of goods and services has continued to experience declines.
Those of us in the general population don’t see the benefits of these productivity increases because they’ve been accompanied by increasing rates of thievery by way of taxation, currency inflation, and restrictive regulations all of which have profoundly adverse impacts upon our quality of life.
YOU may claim to “…want stricter regulations on the corporations, …less dependency on fossil fuels, …clean and renewable energy” and the rest of your Watermelon masturbation factories, but what is it that your fellow Americans want?
Or are you so sure of what they DO want that you dare not give them any chance to voice their objections to your arrogant scheming?

Interestingly enough, the AGW charlatans making up the magical “consensus” make up only a small and relatively well-defined cadre of credentialed con artists. Pry your head out of your ass and look into the details of the “Climategate” communications (you’re plainly too stupid to know what you’re reading in the “hockry stick graph” climate simulation programming or the doctored datasets), particularly the open tranche of emails in the FOIA2011.zip archive released a couple of months ago. Fascinating stuff, and the word “incriminating” is not used unreasonably.
That these conniving incompetents should “willfully take part in an elaborated coordinated criminal fraud” isn’t at all difficult to understand. There’s simply no way that they could gain professional prominence in any objectively valid scientific investigation, and one only has to have some insight into the motivations of anybody seeking a career in academia to understand what drives such people to the perpetration of duplicity in order to falsely gain the respect and other rewards associated with the appearance of real achievement.
You’re obviously such a blithering idiot that nobody could mistake you for someone with academic experience or even an education of any kind, but the history of academia is rife with such fraudsters. We’ve suffered a bunch of ‘em in medical research, and that’s not even mentioning the deviations from scientific integrity perpetrated by the clinical investigators working for the pharmaceuticals manufacturers.

@Tucci78@Ace81 “‘deforestation’ does not occur without REforestation, and in fact purposeful human action to cultivate more trees has tended reliably – all over the planet – to have resulted in increases in forested area.”
ARE YOU FOR REAL?? You’re a lying sack, or incredibly ignorant of reality. I have SEEN massive deforestation with my own eyes- both recent and from a century ago. Temperate forests are meant to encounter fire to rengenerate, but are not meant to be clear cut. You apparently do not know anything about sustainable forestry- which is a much better way of harvesting lumber. The US lumber industry has moved towards sustainability which has not only saved forests, but increased yields- while preserving these precious resources for the future. The Amazon is incredibly different. It has, and is continuing to be clear cut and burned for agriculture. This practice is incredibly destructive. The Amazon accounts for nearly half of the planet’s remaining rainforest and is being cut down at a rate of over 8,000 sq mi /yr. About 18% of the forest has been destroyed for short-term agriculture and turned into cattle pasture- which also increases the amount of methane released into the atmosphere. In additon, the Amazon has experienced severe 100-year droughts in 2005 and 2010.
Humans DO have an effect on the environment. Sometimes good and sometimes bad. Sometimes we don’t know the difference until somebody notices or finds out by mistake. You’re intentionally pooh-pooing environmentalism for no other reason than to get “cheap” gas out of shale and to ignore the plight of the world’s forests guilt-free. Calling AGW a fraud and saying fracking has no detrimental impact to the public is outright bullshit. Get your head out of your ass. Seems you’re already used to the smell.

@robotron@Ace81 – “The Amazon is incredibly different. It has, and is continuing to be clear cut and burned for agriculture. This practice is incredibly destructive.”
And, of course, if experience with the tropical rainforest in Puerto Rico is demonstrative of the natural process of reforestation, the clear cutting and burning undertaken in Brazil (where the people have a government that we Americans do NOT control) can be swamped swiftly by jungle re-growth with a few years of forbearance.
More rapidly if the locals have any incentive to purposefully facilitate that reforestation. Now, how d’you think that the Brazilians might get such an incentive? Would denying them access to cheap petrochemical fuels do that?
Heck, the Brazilians are growing sugar cane on much of that cleared land just to create “biofuel” ethanol with which to run their cars and other motor vehicles.
Nobody on the skeptical side of this discussion denies that “Humans DO have an effect on the environment.”
It’s simply that with regard to the AGW fraud, there is no EVIDENCE that we induce any significant global climate change by way of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) emissions.
Interestingly, one of the observations made by way of scrupulously honest economic study is that as resources become more accessible at lower real cost (as opposed to prices denoted in fiat currency units), the “luxury” of environmental improvement becomes more practicable of attainment, and the benefits of Amazon reforestation will be perceived as relatively more valuable than the clear-cutting of such lands for agricultural purposes.
Why, you nominally environmentalist Watermelon scum really ought to be doing everything you can to increase access to (and lower the costs of) petrochemical fuels all over the world.

After all as Carl Sagan said we can’t afford to conduct an experiment with the planet because we have only one. Even if it was 70 – 30 in favour of denial wouldn’t it still be logical to be cautious? If 30% of experts in the field said that in 2 years a huge comet would hit the earth and cause mass extinction if we did not spend trillions on a defense system. Of course there would be those who would say it would be a total waste of time and money and it’s some kind of conspiracy to defraud us of hard earned money via a ‘comet tax’. Would you say ‘let’s take our chances that the 70% are right’? How reasonable is it to ignore all this evidence and all these warnings from the profession that in all other aspects of our lives from quantum physics, energy, medicine, communications etc etc etc we trust implicitly. That is the noblest of all professions – SCIENCE. Since when did they become so malevolent??? Since they have dared to stumble into the arena of politics with this unfortunate discovery that may possibly shake up the way we do things? Since they encroached on the ideology of consumerism? Remember the last time they were vilified so violently was when they encroached on religious belief and inherent in that fact is the core, for instance Ron Paul’s stance. This science feels like an attack to those who hold dearly the ideology of capitalism. And before you waste your time calling me a communist.

As stated, this is the error of the precautionary principle, advance to evade the obligation to provide EVIDENCE-supported proof of your manifestly insane desire to obliterate industrial civilization and consign to poverty and death the majority of the human race.
How the hell long do you think that the present human population can be sustained without the combustion of petrochemical fuels?
I know that you Watermelon assholes have neither intellectual nor moral integrity, but have you any sense of self-preservation? Do you appreciate the fact that what you are proposing to do to innocent people is more than sufficient justification for them to seek you out – privatim et seriatim – and dismember you slowly in public ceremonies of vengeance?
“If 30% of experts in the field said that in 2 years a huge comet would hit the earth and cause mass extinction if we did not spend trillions on a defense system,” they’d be obliged by skeptical critics to provide EVIDENCE of their contention before any such expenditures were undertaken.
Were they genuine “experts in the field” of orbital mechanics, they’d have locked down that EVIDENCE before uttering the alarm of which you speak, and would be expected to present it in full.
Contrast this with the utterly fraudulent “consensus” of shamans and charlatans upon whom you Watermelon sons of bitches rely – in psychotic denial of everything to be examined in the FOIA2009.zip and FOIA2011.zip “Climategate” archives – who have systematically coordinated the purposeful refusal to let anyone outside their coterie get access to the raw data upon which they’d supposedly predicated their alarmist bullshit.

@Grant Goldberg – [Much frothing rage, including:] “…but the Republican party has been hijacked by mental patients.”
Calm yourself, Mr. Goldberg. The Republican Party, in the main, is still controlled by scheming mercantilists whose priorities are the same as those of Henry Clay’s “American System” of corporate welfare, currency debauchment, and systematic violation of individual human rights, with a sop thrown to the religious whackjobs.
Dr. Paul’s continuing career effort has been to contest these machinations, and it’s only due to the “progressive” moral and political rottenness of the Democrat Party that he’s been obliged to work within America’s “court party” faction.
Interestingly, when recently asked in an interview which prior American president he most admires, Dr. Paul immediately mentioned Grover Cleveland, a “Bourbon Democrat,” and the man who rescued America from the Silver Panic of 1892, the worst secular depression to hit our country in the course of the 19th Century.
On the subject of “man-made global climate change” (also known as the anthropogenic global warming fraud), be also consoled. It’s an utter and schemingly concerted falsehood without either factual validation or any trace of sound scientific method in the whole gaudy multi-trillion-dollar edifice of theft and corruption.
Scroll down a few pages in this thread and struggle through my previous posts. I particularly recommend links I’d recently re-posted to some layman’s-level online publications created by Australian science educator Joanne Nova before the first of the continuing Climategate exposures (in 2009) of the clumsy flim-flam men masquerading as “climate scientists” in what our “Liberal” fascists have trying to peddle as “the consensus” in this scam.

@Grant Goldberg – “And, for all you morons on here that think global warming is a hoax. Guess what? You’re actually retarded. Carbon dioxide traps the suns heat, we burn fossil fuels that have as a byproduct carbon dioxide and the warming on planet matches the amount of greenhouse gases we are pumping into the atmosphere.”
Would that it were so simple.
As has been observed in this forum and in other online venues where the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) fraudsters censor and otherwise suppress, the greenhouse phenomenon – to the trivial extent that anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) induces such an effect in the Earth’s atmosphere – has been noted and remarked to be of no significant consequence whatsoever.
There has been no demonstrated EVIDENCE that proves aCO2 ever to have caused global warming, or to be capable ever of causing such “traps the suns heat” effect, and much genuinely scientific investigation demonstrating that the real drivers of the planet’s changing climate are chiefly extraterrestrial (by way of variations in the sun’s activity or the mechanics of the Earth’s movement around the sun) or otherwise beyond the current ability of the human race to influence.
As regards “the warming on planet matches the amount of greenhouse gases we are pumping into the atmosphere,” you’re succumbing to an earlier error (that correlation implies causation) and are obviously unaware of the fact that even correlation no longer obtains.
Despite acceleration in the rate of aCO2 increase (look up “Keeling curve”), global average temperatures over the most recent past decade have either stabilized or have shown a decline, and the “trapping” of insolation thermal energy has dropped off significantly.
Look beyond the AGW fraudster propaganda and you’ll come to the happy discovery that you’ve been suckered.
But you’re right that it’s not a “hoax.” PIltdown Man was a hoax. This AGW duplicity is properly characterized as a fraud, a criminal theft of value by way of the knowing utterance of falsehoods.

I’ve heard it from all sides, and am unequivocally convinced that AGW proponents’ days are numbered. The farcical smokescreen which they conjure out of a Hegelian dialectic uses a boilerplate of fear and cult-like witchcraft to recruit an army that is seemingly void of cognitive abilities as even the most basic contradictions that even a child can understand cannot be fathomed. The last decade has seen a cooling trend in spite of increasing greenhouse gases. The sites below does a great job of discrediting this propaganda in simple language and easy to understand diagrams. It clearly shows that there is no science behind AGW and i’d laugh at this farce if it wasn’t so intrusive in my life. It just angers me that these eco-zombies inhabit all corners of the globe trying to rape me of my liberty. I probably care about this planet more than most of these so-called eco-zombies because I like to bring to attention the more harmful environmental pollutions such as Round-up, GMO corns that produce its own Round-up and contaminate non-GMO crops, corexit, a banned substance which was used in the Gulf of Mexico, sunk the BP oil spill to the bottom contaminating all sea life, aerosolized aluminum oxide which can cause alzheimers, hormone disruptors in our foods and water, and hundreds if not thousands of known carcinogens allowed by the FDA and EPA to be manufactured by corporations which end up in our lands, air, water and food. Our individuality has been eroded by ineffective government agencies and this needs to change. These environmental violators would have long since disappeared if it wasn’t for the very agencies which was there to protect us, but I hope we have learned through this experience that protection afforded by the US Constitution can work better as long as individuals were given proper attention to violations against them and not marginalized by corporate interests of the government. More regulations mean more problems. I prefer the doublespeak “less is more”.

Solar is coming down in price due to installation efficiency gains, decreasing production costs, higher efficiency PV cells, and economies of scale- and they aren’t made in Saudi Arabia OR Iran.

Now I’ll make this complicated. While it is tough, on the surface, to reconcile a laissez faire free market economic ideology with the desire for coordinated action to combat climate change AND environmental degradation, it isn’t impossible. It is a balance that can be achieved through Democracy. Yes, America can become sustainable without killing jobs. In fact, the environmental benefits on long term health and well-being mean less hours worked away/stuck in traffic JUST to pay for higher-than-necessary healthcare costs.
Without droning on about the benefits of clean air and clean water, it is pretty easy to comprehend the pitfalls of our reliance on sequestered hydrocarbons. Being that the combustion of non-renewable hydrocarbons IS the primary source of excess greenhouse gas emissions, the price put on the environmental degradation that occurs in the periphery (by way of enforcement of property rights and laws protecting clean air and water) would indirectly put a brake on GHG emissions.

Club of Rome is a private think-tank organization, like Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Royal Institute of International Affairs, Trilateral Commission, UN, Bilderberg Group and others, who write policies to deprive individuals of their freedoms which the governments of the world, irrespective of their constituents approval, enthusiastically adopt and influence the media and culture to follow in their fascist/socialist footsteps.

I’m not saying that this bullshit comes anywhere near characterizing what’s actually happening in the real world, but rather that the “climatology consensus” clowns upon whom the politicians and the Watermelons rely to provide a pseudoscientific gloss of verisimilitude around their “man-made global climate change” scam rely upon this bullshit to foist their fraud upon the gullible and the ignorant.
Global and regional climate conditions have varied in the past and will continue to do so, but the mechanism of those variations have in no significant way anything to do with anthropogenic increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Never did (no evidence), never could (no theoretical validity to the bullshit AGW conjecture).
Yes, there’s occasional weather weirdness. Historically, such stuff has happened before, and statistically it’s pretty much certain that such episodes are going to happen again. Jumping up and down and squealing about stuff like “snowing in the desert” has nothing to do with any kind of science, however.
You’re online right now. Look up the Texas expression “blue norther” and then we’ll talk about “snowing in the desert,” okay?

@Hempest – “Driving people away from Ron Paul with his ugliness.”
Nope. Stomping trolls like this “Hempest” clown does nothing whatsoever adverse to Dr. Paul’s cause because such critters appear online to no purpose other than attacking the concepts of individual human rights and (as regards the “man-made global climate change” fraud) sound scientific method.
There is precisely ZERO chance that anthropogenic global warming (AGW) fraudsters and their Watermelon true believers have any intention of supporting Dr. Paul in any way, and this particular dollop of pitiful prevarication makes that point quite perfectly.
What’s nice about this is that I’m just another poster on this “Fan Site,” in no way officially affiliated with Dr. Paul’s campaign, speaking (as I’ve continued to make clear) only my own observations and opinions.
And these idiots fixate in their gibbering, impotent rage on ME.
Whoopee.
Millions of Americans have suffered through the past twenty years and more – especially since the thieving, raping transnational progressives (Tranzis) of the United Nations created the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 1989 – under a barrage of politically correct “Cargo Cult Science” contravening plain damned common sense and masquerading as unimpeachable scientific authority when in fact all it ever had been was an elaborate government-funded scam designed to impose upon the average citizen higher costs for literally everything needed to live.
I simply make that clear, and these “Liberal” fascist scum go completely bugnuts confronting it.
On their own masturbatory propaganda Web sites – and that includes Wikipedia – they can censor and block.
Here they’re just plain screwed.
Ain’t that nice?

@ Guest – “I’d just like to point out that technically it’s ‘global climate change’”
Nope. The mechanism whereby “man-made global climate change” is supposed to be effected is by way of heat energy “trapped” in the Earth’s atmosphere by anthropogenic (man-made) emissions of carbon dioxide as the result of burning petrochemical fuels.
It’s “global warming.” The “climate change” noise was initiated by the AGW fraudsters when it became obvious that the warming they’d claimed to be caused by the purposeful combustion of petrochemical fuels pretty much ceased happening in about 1998 despite the fact that the emissions rates of aCO2 (and therefore atmospheric concentrations of man-made carbon dioxide) kept rising precipitously.
You’re online. Look up “Keeling curve.”
It’s hard to complain that human emissions of CO2 are the cause of “global climate change” if there’s no correlation between the alleged cause and the putative effect.

@Hempest – “…if you all think man isn’t impacting our environment adversely…”
My, but you ARE a friggin’ idiot, aren’t you?
Stating the plain fact that the release of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) into the atmosphere is NOT pollution – nor is it capable of ever causing statistically significant adverse “greenhouse” effect – isn’t a claim that man-made gaseous, liquid, and particulate materials otherwise released into the environment cannot be considered adverse externalities which degrade “the commons” upon which other people depend for their well-being.
What we’re discussing here simply isn’t pollution as such is properly identified, but rather the normal and perfectly tolerable products of complete combustion, CO2 and H2O.
Now, if you want to consider anthropogenic factors which DO impose real environmental degradation upon parties without their consent, then we’re moving into the realm of tort law, whereby the proper protection of individual private property rights is the objective, and where the abatement of noxious nuisances is appropriately handled.
The notion of “regulating” pollution – by way of getting PERMISSION from government officers to dump certain levels of effluents into other people’s air and water and soil – is an insanity.
It makes the “right” to pollute a political favor meted out in violation of the individual right NOT to suffer that pollution.
Can’t have that and still remain a republic governed by the rule of law, can we?

Yep. And I’m sure that what you’re trying to peddle is a pseudoscientific line of bullshit that serves the predatory political purposes of “Liberal” fascism, first as an excuse to “carbon-tax” your fellow Americans into poverty, second to destroy the economy upon which industrialized civilization depends for its survival (much less the growth we need to feed and house and clothe the millions of real human beings being added to the world’s population every year).
I have never yet encountered anyone pushing your Watermelon “We’re All Gonna Die!” catatastrophist AGW hokum who wasn’t a leftie-luser intent upon the government-as-god agenda of the National Socialist Democrat American Party (NSDAP).
As I’ve observed here and elsewhere, there is simply no scientific validity to the contention that anthropogenic carbon dioxide (aCO2) has ever caused or COULD ever cause statistically significant “trapping” of insolation heat energy in the Earth’s atmosphere.
From the git-go (back in the 1970s), the alarmist idiots pushing what scum like you want to call “the consensus” have been practicing “Cargo Cult Science,” devoid of verifiable and therefore valid EVIDENCE supporting their conjecture.
In fact, as more valid evidence is elucidated, it keeps proving that everything these scheming fraudsters keep squawking about is simply not how the real universe works.
Your problem, you friggin’ fascist, is that your victims are awake.
Run for your pitiful, worthless life.

@Hempest – Restoring the hemp industry and putting paid to corporate welfare are both reasonable objectives, but even the remotest entertainment of the “man-made climate change” premise is presumptive proof of stupidity at best and predatory duplicity more probably.

@TColl90 – Sorry I went on at such length. This stuff is emphatically NOT rocket science, but the Earth’s climate is a complex multivariant system demonstrating nonlinear responses to even the most accurately mensurable inputs, such that outcomes just don’t tend all that reliably to be what the average yutz thinks they’ll be.
It’s one of the reasons why I responded with a great big “WTF?” more than thirty years ago when a friend of mine out in Colorado informed me of this “greenhouse gas” idiocy about anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions.
When Prof. Beckmann wrote about some Ph.D.’d bumblers claiming that we’d get the same sort of infrared “trapping” as had been theorized in studies of Venus’ atmosphere, I boggled a bit and replied “Isn’t somebody overestimating this potential effect by about three or four orders of magnitude?”
Dr. Beckmann responded that it looked to him a bunch worse than that, but Dr. Beckmann was an engineering professor, and I’m just a country GP.
