Obama knocks out Romney

Forbes magazine doesn't want clean energy. It's like posting an article from the Wall Street Journal supporting school vouchers.

ETA: I know, "That doesn't mean it's not true." A documentary on PBS which Mitty Mob wants to cut several scientists said there is not a debate on whether or not the Earth is getting hotter. The argument is whether or not some of it if not all of it is caused by man." I think it's quite a coincidence that it's been getting hotter since the Industrial Revolution which was started by us and by "us" I mean the US. Now, since then we've gotten much, much better about preventing pollution in the air but other countries we can't do much about it right now. Before we can regulate that at the UN level we have to regulate at the US level and there are people's interests blocking that and one is a Mormon.

But see, there IS a legit argument being made that it is NOT getting hotter and is in fact cooling (it was making the rounds just a few days ago, I'll find some links and post later). Will you see it on PBS or any other left tinged media? Maybe, maybe not but the science is there on both sides. Neither have yet conclusively proven themselves despite a very partisan campaign to shut sceptics up by lumping them in with BIRTHERS AND TRUTHERS.

Thank God the Dems lost complete power before they could institute cap and trade. That is all the US needs is another hand tied behind our back in a fight we are already losing.

Also, What the fuck does this have to do with Mormans? We got lost man, really lost.

What you don't understand is that all scientists in the world agree that the Earth is warming. It's not a conspiracy crabfan.

DUDE!? That is simply not true. I know you have your views but are your binders really on that fucking tight?

Okay since you aren't interested in researching this yourself I'll give you the first one for free.

New Research Show Earth Has Not Warmed in 15 Years

By Jon E. Dougherty at 29 Jan 2012


(Newsroom America) -- New data released by a noted climate research institute last week indicated that the earth has not warmed in more than a decade, findings that are sure to challenge the global warming mentality for years held by a number of scientists.

The data, released with little fanfare by the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit in London, shows that the earth has not warmed in at least 15 years. The university's conclusion was based on readings from more than 30,000 measuring stations.

In fact, the university said, it was possible the earth was moving into a cooling cycle, suggesting "that we could even be heading for a mini ice age to rival the 70-year temperature drop that saw frost fairs held on the Thames in the 17th Century," London's Daily Mail newspaper reported.

Leading climate scientists told the paper that the sun, after emitting high energy levels throughout the 20th century, may be entering a period of "grand minimum" output, which could produce colder summers, extreme winters and shorter seasons for growing food.

Other climate scientists made similar predictions.

"World temperatures may end up a lot cooler than now for 50 years or more," Henrik Svensmark, director of the Center for Sun-Climate Research at Denmark’s National Space Institute, told the paper.

"It will take a long battle to convince some climate scientists that the sun is important. It may well be that the sun is going to demonstrate this on its own, without the need for their help," he said.

Some scientists said models set forth by in 2000 by the British government have not yet run their course and could still wind up producing warmer temperatures.

Professor Judith Curry of the Georgia Institute of Technology, a noted U.S. climatologist, said many scientists "are not surprised" by the warming pause.

She said it's becoming more evident that factors other than CO2 affect global warming and cooling, such as the 60-year water temperature cycles in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, the Mail reported.

Well that is good news and I hope it continues.
