The Environment: BOTW #2: Reg-E

Reg-E's Ramblings:

The topic for this week is "global warming" and it appears to me that the environmental whacko's have cornered this market. This movement is being lead by none other than Al Gore and his recent propaganda film on the "global warming" issue has only fuled the fire.

When I was in high school I remember several "scientific" publications that declared civilization was headed for another ice age. Now our planet is overheating due to the effects of the greenhouse gases and all of the blame is being laid at the feet of the United States. Anyone who disagrees with the "global warming" cabal is branded as a loon that does not understand science. The Weather Channel's resident "global warming" guru, Heidi Cullen, has indicated that any meteorologist with the "American Metrological Society" designation who believes that the warming trend may be due to cyclical variations in weather patterns should be stripped of their designation. James Spann who is a television meteorologist who has been in the field since the late 70's has publicly feuded with Ms. Cullen and her call to censure opposing voices on the topic.

It is time to admit that we have scientist on both sides of the issue and that Mr. Gore's version of the issue is not etched in stone. Mr. Gore is pandering to the extreme left on this issue in hopes of reviving his presidential aspirations. This is the same person who in the late 80's along with his wife, Tipper, sought to regulate the content of the music industry. Mr. Gore is also the same person when serving as Congressman was decidedly Pro-Life, but his position on this issue has evolved to pander to the left.

The United States has taken steps over the years to reduce harmful emissions into the atmosphere and clean up the air, but still that is never enough for the Gore Goonies who simply want to perpetuate their position. While I am certainly no expert in this field a lot of people who are do in fact respectfully disagree with the Gore Myth's. Mr. Gore cannot and will not engage in an intellectually honest debate in this area with people who present him with scientific data that leads to alternate views. I challenge people to research this issue and form their own conclusions as opposed to swallowing Mr. Gore's babble on global warming. A good place to start is visiting Junkscience.com and expending your research from this starting point as opposed to jumping on the Gore Express to futility.

Just my thoughts.............
