Global Warming is Hot Air
-By Mark Cotter
Notice it is not Global Warming anymore. The new buzz word is Climate Change. Because we started a cooling period recently and that does not fit the Al Gore “the earth will fry” scenario. So Change it is, of course anyone who leaves the house on a daily basis notices that the ‘climate changes’ from time to time. 25 Years ago we were being warned of the great Ice Age approaching, 15 years ago the sea was dying, each time an over reaction of a ‘perceived’ imbalance that unchecked would kill us all. I wonder if you remember the great Ozone hole? We were going to all die of UV exposure and all because of hairspray and freon in cooling systems. Freon was replaced at great expense to the public and profit for the refrigeration industry but did nothing to close the Ozone hole. It seems after further study that the hole over the arctic has always been there and gets larger or smaller as the earth seems to need it. The earth regulates it self with or with out us and to think we have a great impact is similar to the mosquito sure that it is his sting that caused the elephant to move left. We are truly insignificant in that level of things.
As in many things, when we fail to look beyond the surface, fail to ask questions, fail to challenge statements, we find ourselves following a pied piper, ignorant of why he came or where we are going.
The planet takes very good care of itself thank you very much. This is not to say that you can ignore your space. No, keeping clean and using things wisely and efficiently is good husbandry of your assets. But lets be realistic in our assumptions on the impact both positive and negative we can have. Take a look at real science and look at the actual impact. check out this from Heritage Foundation and follow links to all the science then make your own decision. Be led by the Pied Piper no more!
