Um... what?
Cold empties Bolivian rivers of fish: Nature News
Now we're to believe that Global Warming is melting the ice to the north, while deep-freezing the south? Are we to believe that since heat rises, and north is up, that OF COURSE Global Warming is just melting stuff in the northern hemisphere?
I was keeping an open mind, but now I'm increasingly starting to side with the people who say the whole global warming/climate change crap made so popular by Al Gore really IS nothing more than politically motivated claptrap at best, some sort of neo-pagan doomsday religion/cult at worst. If for no other reason, because now they're swinging back to the imminent global destruction I remember they were talking about as a kid: Man was causing GLOBAL COOLING and we were all going to die because is it!
I think perhaps these two Times Magazine covers, from roughly 30 years apart, illustrate the level of bullshit that's being spread more clearly than I can...
How long before we see this cover story again?

"The world's most high-profile climate change sceptic is to declare that global warming is "undoubtedly one of the chief concerns facing the world today" and "a challenge humanity must confront", in an apparent U-turn that will give a huge boost to the embattled environmental lobby."

You really need to tune out FOX news and whatever other hard-right flat-earthers you're looking at.
Flat-earthers? Where?! I've always wanted to meet one!

and please, PLEASE, understand what you're buying into.
Was there anything new in that article? If so, I didn't see it.
ReplyDeleteGet back to me when the high-fathers of your religion practice what they preach.
Or when China and India do something about their pollution output.
And please, PLEASE, understand what you're buying into.
