Hey folks,
I do not have a lot of time this morning. Got a LATE start. But this is interesting. Like I have been saying for a LONG time now, Global Warming is nothing but a bunch of bunk. It is all about power, control, and money.
I have also told you and pointed out that there are natural cycles in nature that cause warming and cooling. Check the archives here. Just type in Global Warming, and you will see what I have been talking about. So I'll leave you with this piece by Noel Sheppard over at NewsBusters. Have a great day, see you tomorrow.
150 Years of Global Warming and Cooling at the New York Times
As the Business & Media Institute reported [1] last year, press reports of climate change have been going on since the 1800s.Over the weekend, I was sent a list of New York Times articles dating back to 1855 addressing the global warming and cooling that has been happening on this planet for the past 150 years. I have taken the liberty of adding a few pieces that I discovered in the Times’ archives to further illustrate the point.
As you review the following, try to keep in mind just how sure global warming alarmists like soon-to-be-Dr. Al Gore are that the current trend in climate change is a “a true planetary emergency [1]” that must be dealt with soon to avoid an imminent cataclysm:
