Have we been misled?

"The science is settled," President Barack Obama insists in defense of his scheme to wreck the coal industry.

Well, no. It is not.

Obama insists the threat of global warming requires drastic new curbs on industrial emissions. Coal-burning power plants have been a primary target of the Environmental Protection Agency.

Unless discharges of carbon dioxide into the air are reduced dramatically, the planet faces severe changes in climate, Obama, the EPA and supportive liberals have maintained.

A new study on the issue is out. It has been published in the online journal "Science."

And guess what?

The international team of scientists involved in the study concludes cutting emissions of soot and methane - not CO2 - is the key to slowing global warming.

That is hardly settled science.

Members of Congress, who have the power to stop Obama and his EPA, should be furious. Clearly, they and the American people have been misled.

So now we have a new culprit, Soot and Methane!

Brilliant, here we go again, change the culprit.

And if that wasn't bad enough, Cameron and Sarcozie have reched agreement on Fench and British Military co-operation.

Yes folks, France and Britain on the same side...

... everything is going to be just fine...

... until the next Falkland's conflict...

...who gets to use the one and only aircraft carrier?

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

You couldn't make it up!

The self absorbed navel gazers strike again!

Why does mother nature never get scrutinzed?

F-U-N-D-I-N-G.

If they admitted it was just business as usual, their careers, and money, would go out the window.

Imagine if 'Ghost Hunters' were to prove there are no ghosts. Oopsy! Career change.

The mendacity and hypocrisy of the man make me want to heave violently.

This behaviour is the essence of evil. To lie in order to be elected, then accept bribes donations to further your political career, then use all of that as a platform to defraud defraud your fellow citizens, is a damn disgrace of the highest order. The stench of Obama's sins will reach to the high heavens. A curse be on that man.

Why do so many political leaders and citizens remain unconcerned about climate change, water scarcity, fisheries depletion, and a host of other science-related global challenges? Find out by joining us for a Webcast of the plenary panel Science Is Not Enough, featuring three of the world’s most knowledgeable and compelling science communicators during the 2012 AAAS Annual Meeting.

This exceptional Webcast—set for 5:00—6:30 p.m. PT on Saturday, February 18—will arm scientists, educators, students, and citizens around the world with messages to help influence public perceptions and debate when the science supporting a position is not enough to carry the argument.


PhD's with Pom Pons. How sad.

The whole point is that people like Obama, Merkel, Cameron et al know full well the whole AGW scam is the biggest con in history, they have promoted it because it fits nicely into their scheme. Gullible and guilty people will pay more tax to compensate for 'their sins' and help to create a new world order and one world currency. Others are on the green bandwagon because it makes them a personal fortune, 'Greenpeace' are a load of immature,unsatisfied, frustrated grown ups wanting to belong to a 'gang'. NASA lost their significance and AGW scams helped them regain it. Where have all the adults gone?

"Of course, you can expect this study to fall on deaf ears among the usual suspects, just as previous ones have. Possibly the only thing that’s going to attract the attention of the key players is the tens of thousands of jobs being added in Pennsylvania and the fact that state with the lowest unemployment rate in the nation right now is North Dakota, at 3.3%. I wonder how they managed that? (Hint: they’re not picking mangoes.)" hotair.com/archives/2012/02/18/university-study-fracking-hasnt-contaminated-groundwater/
