Climategate: A Willful Ignorance

5 Dec 09 - (Excerpts) - Imagine a child saying, "Make it
stop snowing"
or "make the Sun come out." There are more than 16,500 men and women
this very day who are gathered in Copenhagen, Denmark at a "Climate
Change"
conference
based entirely on lies that defy simple truths about how the Earth
functions.
Unless one was determined upon a willful ignorance of those truths, the
vast body of lies that continue to be reported would and should sink
beneath the weight of real science, legitimate science, not the computer
model inventions that conveniently ignore the Medieval Warm period when
temperatures were higher than they are now, a time when Chaucer
(1342-1400) would write of vineyards in northern England, a time well
before the Industrial Revolution and the emissions of carbon dioxide
(CO2) that result from the use of coal, oil, and natural gas.
It is only willful ignorance that would keep a reporter or anyone else
from knowing what has been known for years, that CO2 increases over the
past 300,000 years have never caused temperature rise. Indeed, the rise
of CO2 always follows in the wake of a temperature increase. What is so
terribly wrong about the Copenhagen conference and the Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change sponsoring it is that its own member scientists
know that too.
A week after the revelations of more than a thousand emails between the
chief perpetrators of the science fraud that has since come to be called
Climategate, an editor at The Economist could still write, "This
newspaper believes that global warming is a serious threat, and that the
world needs to take steps to try to avert it."
Could The Economist be so uninformed, misinformed, or willfully
ignorant of the commonly known fact that, despite a rise in the amount
of CO2 in the atmosphere, the Earth has been in a new, natural cooling
cycle for a decade?
Can all the labors of the 16,000 scientists, diplomats, politicians, and
other assorted conspirators manage to ignore that fact?
The IPCC should be disbanded as a threat to mankind. The EPA should be
required by Congress to produce scientific proof that CO2 is a
"pollutant" to be regulated. It cannot!
The people attending the conference should be run out of Copenhagen as
if peasants were once again pursuing the monster, Frankenstein.
