If the founder of The Weather Channel spoke out strongly against the manmade global warming myth, might media members notice?

We're going to find out the answer to that question soon, for John Coleman wrote an article published at ICECAP Wednesday that should certainly garner attention from press members -- assuming journalism hasn't been completely replaced by propagandist activism, that is.


It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM. Some dastardly scientists with environmental and political motives manipulated long term scientific data to create in [sic] allusion of rapid global warming. Other scientists of the same environmental whacko type jumped into the circle to support and broaden the "research" to further enhance the totally slanted, bogus global warming claims. Their friends in government steered huge research grants their way to keep the movement going. Soon they claimed to be a consensus.

Environmental extremists, notable politicians among them, then teamed up with movie, media and other liberal, environmentalist journalists to create this wild "scientific" scenario of the civilization threatening environmental consequences from Global Warming unless we adhere to their radical agenda. Now their ridiculous manipulated science has been accepted as fact and become a cornerstone issue for CNN, CBS, NBC, the Democratic Political Party, the Governor of California, school teachers and, in many cases, well informed but very gullible environmental conscientious citizens. Only one reporter at ABC has been allowed to counter the Global Warming frenzy with one 15 minutes documentary segment....


I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have talked with numerous scientists. I have studied. I have thought about it. I know I am correct. There is no run away climate change. The impact of humans on climate is not catastrophic. Our planet is not in peril. I am incensed by the incredible media glamour, the politically correct silliness and rude dismissal of counter arguments by the high priest of Global Warming.

"I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have talked with numerous scientists. I have studied."

And yet, when I ask for a mere half-dozen names of climatologists who disagree with global warming you can't come up with any. And you can't come up with any links, article titles, or quotes from any credible study that 'disproves' global warming for all the supposed papers you've read. Not one.

That quote isn't me talking, genius. That's the John Coleman, founder of The Weather Channel speaking. Doofus.

(corrected - Happy now ? )

Woulda been nice if you had formatted the first part of the quote the same way as the second. You know, in italics so it doesn't look like YOUR commentary at the start. Might wanna correct that.

So we want to take the word of a business man? I'm not exactly sure what your point is? He's read "dozens" of scientific papers, and he "knows" he's correct.

I"m not saying he's not an authority, but you tell us we should listen because he founded the weather channel? What gives with that? What makes his voice significant on this supposed debate?

A business man. A climatetologist. A meteorologist. As the list grows of those who speak out against the global warming myth, what else will it take to convince you ? 5 years ? 10 ? 20 ?

Hello,

The weather seems to be changing, and we can only make educated guesses as to why. Unfortunately, proper scientific testing requires a test group and a control group. We just don't have 200 Earths to split up and examine under different conditions. We will never be able to conclusively prove the cause of Global Warming, and only our great-grandchildren will be able to say with certainty whether our current perceived Global Warming crisis is real, or merely a momentary blip on the radar of a millions-of-years-old planet. (Or is it billions? Same difference.)

I will say now what I have said before. And anyone should feel free to dig up my old posts on the subject. It doesn't matter if Global Warming is man-made or not. There are plenty of good, selfish reasons to change the behavior of mankind that have nothing to do with Global Warming. Oil and Coal are limited resources, they are dirty (whether or not they cause Global Warming) and they are expensive. Finding a way to utilize clean and plentiful energy resources helps the race and the individual on a purely selfish level. It might also help the planet, or it might not. Who cares? It helps me!

So shove Global Warming up your rectum and give me a car that delivers a mile per penny. That would be progress.

Yes, Global warming is a scam. Created by the Reagan-Thatcher governments in the Eighties in order to push forward the Nuclear power agenda. Which is why I'm surprised by Auraptors stance.

"Greatest scam in history !"

Nice way to frame a debate. You lose your temper and run away from the last one, unable or unwilling to provide a logical rational argument for your stance, and instead start a new topic framed for confirmation bias. Personally I'm interested in the truth of the matter, not confirming my preconceptions, someone who won't even make they're case isn't going to be helpful in that regard.

I normally don't bother with these discussions cause for a fact, I lack the scientific grounding to discuss it accurately, not that it stops anyone else...

But I must say, Anthony, you summed up MY position on the topic quite exactly, if something is a good idea in it's own right, who the hell needs some excuse to do it ?

Other than the profits of some corporate dickheads who'd go running to the Gov for a handout if the price of their product ever tanked, where exactly, is there a logical, reasonable incentive NOT to move towards using clean and renewable energy sources ?

Apparently that point is somewhat lost on the folks entrenched on one side or the other lobbing shells - that somewhere in the middle of that no-mans-land lies the simple fact that it's not a bad idea all by it's lonesome, without the need to prove any damned thing one way or the other.

The big three might be telling you it can't be done, but try tellin that to maniac johnnie goodwin.
http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/120/motorhead-messiah.html

"Goodwin installed the Duramax and a five-speed Allison--the required transmission for a Duramax, which also helps give it race-car-like control and a rapid take off. After five days' worth of work, the Hummer was getting about 18 mpg--double the factory 9 mpg--and twice the original horsepower. He drove it over to a local restaurant and mooched some discarded oil from its deep fryer, strained the oil through a pair of jeans, and poured it into the engine. It ran perfectly."

Can be done, will be done.

Get with the program, folks.
