A heated topic amongst scientists and average Joes as well. No pun intended. How long can this debate go on for? There are many books about Global Warming, or the lack there of, which is what I will focus on through the course of this editorial. There exists such a large quantity of evidence against the myth of global warming, but no one wants to believe it.
For those of you that do not know, the word evidence can be replaced with the word fact. There are enough facts that oppose the idea of global warming, yet the arrow just won’t reach its target with some people. We watch it on the news almost once a week. The temperatures are rising and if we don’t do something about it soon…..?? What will happen if we don’t take immediate action? Does anyone know? I imagine the people in frozen Siberia would appreciate a nice warm summer. Oh, I remember, the icecaps will melt, raising the level of the ocean, thereby causing the Waterworld that made so many lose respect for Kevin Costner. I disagree.
What evidence do they have to support the claim of global warming? The last I read about, scientists said that the icecaps in Greenland were becoming denser. It must be all of these unexpected temperatures that cause people to believe in global warming, right? The temperatures that we have been experiencing have been proven to be completely normal. The Earth has colder and warmer years. In fact, the 1930s have been recorded as being the hottest years ever. Scientific data, evidence, fact, shows the fact that the temperature changes we have been experiencing are normal.
“There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.” This is what the Global Warming Petition has to say about Global Warming. If you proceed to the link provided, you can see what kind of people have signed this petition.
Quite frankly, I don’t think that too many PhD holders are willing to throw their degrees and careers out there; if they did not believe in what the petition they are signing fights for. Why must we continue to argue? The data is there. The evidence is there. Global warming does not exist. The media continues to bombard the public with threats of what may happen and what could happen if we do not change our lives. The question that I think we need to be asking is: why? Why is the media force feeding us false information? What is going on behind the scenes of this Global warming hoax. Who is making the money from all of this??
