Can We Stop Treating Global Warming as a Myth Now?
The Earth is the hottest it has been in at least 400 years, probably even longer.
The National Academy of Sciences, reaching that conclusion in a broad review of scientific work requested by Congress, reported Thursday that the “recent warmth is unprecedented for at least the last 400 years and potentially the last several millennia.”
And let’s be perfectly clear: these are real scientists saying this. They are not members of the NewsMax Institute for Scientific Inquiry. Their opinion actually has substance.
A panel of top climate scientists told lawmakers that the Earth is running a fever and that “human activities are responsible for much of the recent warming.” Their 155-page report said average global surface temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere rose about 1 degree during the 20th century.
Ehn. Send ’em back to study the matter some more. We all know how concerned the Bush administration is with basing its actions on sound science.
If come Christmas Bush has to wear a jacket down at the ranch then it is all for naught. If his skin tells him it is not hot, then his gut will be sure that global warming is nothing to worry about.
Either God gets on the red phone and talks to him, or maybe someone can direct a powerful microwave emitter towards Crawford this winter. Those strategies might have an impact….

But we all know you can’t trust those damn scientist. Remember, Ann told us they invented Evilution to get rid of Gawd. They’re now inventing this global warming thingy to get rid of Satan.
And without Gawd or Satan, will all become a bunch of lawless, molesting, killing homersexuls that hate freedom and the family. So this Global Warming thing is just a plot by libruls to turn everyone gay.
I, for one, welcome our hot, gay librul overlords. I bet the only “human activities” warming up the planet is all teh BUTTSEX!!!!!1!!one!!!
Alarmist gay Gawd-hatin’ libruhls.
Hey, hey, hey! According to http://www.sexinchrist.com, buttsex is not only not a sin, but it’s a Biblically proven alternative to regular sex to avoid remarital sex.
no. the answer is no.
You would think the thumpers would understand the lesson of the doubting Thomas. Maybe if they stick their fingers in the hole in the ozone layer, they’ll believe it.
The Earth has been much hotter and much drier (or colder and drier) in the past and has changed direction in mean temp rapidly (within centuries) before. These climate changing events have always been accompanied by massive extinctions.
But that is all crap because the Lord’s Creation is unchanging. This is also why this myth of “erosion” is complete bunk.
Hey, they said it only went up 1 degreein a century. That’s only 1 degree!!!!1!! So what’s the big diff?!!!!
Just 1 degree!!!!!1!!!!1
Just 1 degree!!!!!1!!!!1
Yeah, but it’s one of those Islamofascistloving Euro-pussy “Celsius” degrees, not our fine Aryan Fahrenheit ones. This, mutatis mutandis, is the classic Communist plot to keep us down and send our probes crashing into Mars.
And they think they’re superior to us just because their degrees have fancy-pants Latin names and are almost twice as big as ours. They just cannot grasp the brainpower required to remember that 32 and 212 are significant numbers, or grapple with units like the “slug foot per second squared”.

or 9 and 11
Well, don’t ask our friend the SEXion, because he claims that none of it is true!
but then again, I don’t have helmetstrap-sideburns, and nor do I leer creepily from the top of my website.
Add the Whiztards! to the list of science atheists as well. If only Newton were alive today and Liberal. They would stop at nothing to prove him wrong as well
-Preferably from nice, tall buildings….
JiuNoon:
I want to know more about this “remarital sex” which we should be avoiding.
What can you say to someone who doesen’t believe in Global warming at this day and age.
Personally I’ve given up trying to explain to people how stupid the “It isn’t proven” argument is.
Besides, I read a study predicting that if global warming continues, Canada will become the argricultural powerhouse of the world and most of America would turn into a dustbowl.
So, you know, nyah nyah.
For the naive and clueless, this report represented a major blow to the global warming alarmist faction. It found very little confidence in the “hockey stick” graph which purported to show that the warming in the 20th century was unprecedented over the last 2,000 years. The graph was the cornerstone of the 2001 IPCC report and is featured prominently in Al Gore’s new movie. The only problem is that its main finding, the unprecedented warming, turns out to be inaccurate and only given a “plausible” rating in the confidence department. Ouch.
You won’t read any of this in the Associated Press report, though. You’ll hear about 2,000 years of unprecedented warming, directly opposite of what the actual report says. You’ll read that the National Academy of Sciences “lent credibility to” the hockey stick graph.
Of course, if any of you brave souls actually take the step of reading the report, you’ll see this is completely false and a calculated propaganda effort by John Heilprin of the AP.
Don’t take my word for it: read the report yourself.
Oh, and Shorter Rightwing Arseholes, you still reeling from the fact that you got caught falsely claiming that “hundreds of scientists” were behind the latest hurricane report? Yeah, you sure do love “facts” don’t you.
I guess in the liberal world, 2 scientists means 100 scientists, and 400 years means 2,000 years. I don’t get it, but I guess y’all do. 😉
Kang:You see Kodos, if you throw a human into boiling water they scream and try to get out.
Kodos: Yes, but if you turn up the temperature of their planet by one degree per century they merely create more vacuous reality programming for their televideo units.
shorter Seixon: global warming was invented by an AP reporter.
Bravo Seixon, by splitting hairs and parsing words, you\’ve single handedly proven global warming is a myth.
Because climate data before 900AD is unreliable, obviously the consensus in the scientific community about global warming is just some sort of liberal conspiracy.
This quote is specifically hilarious \”Al Gore and the media are content with lying, exaggerating, and overselling global warming precisely because if they don\’t, the public will not listen to them.\”
Replace the words Al Gore with George Bush and global warming with the war in Iraq (or anything for that matter) and then you\’ve really got something.
