But then facts just get in the way of liberal agendas Nevertheless, here are a few of those "funny things" called FACTS<BR/><BR/>Mathematician & engineer Dr. David Evans, who did carbon accounting for the Australian Government: Evans noted how he benefited from climate fears as a scientist. “And the political realm in turn fed money back into the scientific community. By the late 1990's, lots of jobs depended on the idea that carbon emissions caused global warming. Many of them were bureaucratic, but there were a lot of science jobs created too. I was on that gravy train, making a high wage in a science job that would not have existed if we didn't believe carbon emissions caused global warming. And so were lots of people around me; and there were international conferences full of such people. And we had political support, the ear of government, big budgets, and we felt fairly important and useful (well, I did anyway).<BR/><BR/>Paleoclimatologist Tim Patterson, of Carlton University in Ottawa converted from believer in C02 driving the climate change to a skeptic. Patterson says his conversion “probably cost me a lot of grant money. However, as a scientist I go where the science takes me and not were activists want me to go.”<BR/><BR/>Al Gore defends his extraordinary personal energy usage by telling critics he maintains a "carbon neutral" lifestyle by buying "carbon offsets," but the company that receives his payments turns out to be partly owned and chaired by the former vice president himself. <BR/>Gore has built a "green money-making machine capable of eventually generating billions of dollars for investors, including himself, but he set it up so that the average Joe can't afford to play on Gore's terms," writes blogger Dan Riehl. <BR/>http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=54528<BR/><BR/>Nigel Calder is probably not a household name in America, as he used to be the editor of the British science magazine New Scientist, and is more recently an author and BBC screenwriter. With that as pretext, he wrote a column for the Sunday Times in which he absolutely slammed the recent hysteria and junk science surrounding anthropogenic global warming<BR/>http://newsbusters.org/node/10756<BR/>No convincing evidence <BR/><BR/>“. . .(W)e do not currently have any convincing evidence or observations of significant climate change from other than natural causes,” writes “skeptic” Frederick Seitz, past president of the National Academy of Sciences, in a report released at the conference.<BR/>The conference's impressive line-up of scientists, some who worked on original International Panel on Climate Change studies, provide a second opinion drawn from the same original research _ minus self-interest and the IPCC agenda. <BR/><BR/>IPCC reports have been subject to government approval, compiled by scientists “almost all supported by government contracts” and paid for by government funds. The IPCC is “a political rather than scientific entity” whose summaries are written by “small group of activists,” says conference organizer S. Fred Singer, University of Virginia professor emeritus of environmental sciences. <BR/><BR/>To see the non-government, non-agenda driven view, read the “Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change” at www.sepp.org/publications/NIPCC-Fe http://www.junkscience.com/<BR/>b%2020.pdf.<BR/>Bush's Ranch House 'Far More Eco-Friendly' Than Gore's<BR/>By Randy Hall<BR/>CNSNews.com Staff Writer/Editor<BR/>March 01, 2007<BR/><BR/>(CNSNews.com) - George Bush may be a nemesis of the global green movement and Al Gore its hero, but the president's home is arguably far more environmentally-friendly than the home of the man he defeated in the 2000 election.... The CEI's Lewis said the disparity between Gore's message on global warming and his power consumption reflected an "elitist mentality."<BR/><BR/>"The average soccer mom can't afford to plant trees in the rainforest in order to remain carbon neutral," he said.<BR/><BR/>"All these jet-setters' lives consist of going to conferences in other countries by burning jet fuel and staying in posh hotels where they keep the lights on all day and so on in order to tut-tut about how wasteful the rest of us are in our use of energy," he stated.<BR/><BR/>"They always make an exception for themselves because what they're doing is so important." <BR/><BR/>http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewCulture.asp?Page=/Culture/archive/200703/CUL20070301c.htmlapackof2https://www.blogger.com/profile/09174208862464241586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4909510874321291735.post-13027838101600115562008-03-06T08:14:00.000-05:002008-03-06T08:14:00.000-05:00Post my support of Bob Lutz?

These folks meet regularly with governor Bush so he can help them "convey the message of freedom," of whatever BS he wants them to eagerly parrot to their audiences.<BR/><BR/>The "scientists" that refute the global warming phenomenon are typically employed by oil, coal companies and the "think tanks" that they fund. They are simply trying to perpetuate profit over people.Acme Datahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08525960944385383588noreply@blogger.com
