22 Apr 11 - "Our government is in the process of imposing strict
controls to reduce greenhouse gases in hopes of staving off global
warming even though earth's atmosphere is cooling," says Professor
Emeritus Neil Snyder.
"I'm not a Republican or a Republican Party apologist," says professor
Snyder. I'm an ordinary citizen who's interested in the facts, and the
facts about climate change tell a tale."
"The climate is changing alright, but it's getting cooler - not warmer. "
"For example," says Snyder, "consider this information:"
"Climate change per se is a given," says Snyder. "Earth's climate has been
changing since Day One. If that were not the case, then try explaining the
Ice Ages and the warming periods between them."
"In 2008, a group of more than 31,000 scientists signed a petition
dissenting from the position trumpeted by the United Nations'
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change," says Snyder. "More than 9,000 of
them have Ph.D. degrees in fields like atmospheric science, climatology,
earth science, and environmental science. That's 15 times more Ph.D.
scientists than are involved in the United Nations' campaign to convince the
world that man-made CO2 emissions are destroying our planet."
"Our government is in the process of imposing strict controls to reduce
greenhouse gases in hopes of staving off global warming even though earth's
atmosphere is cooling, and the cost to you and me is higher energy prices,
higher inflation, and a lower standard of living since every product we buy
has an energy cost component," says Snyder.
"President Obama made it clear that he will continue to pursue his agenda
(via the EPA) regardless of the facts. His misguided effort to move ahead
by fiat or by executive order isn't just wrong minded. It's very expensive,
and it's a price we can ill afford to pay, especially now as our economy is
struggling to recover from the Great Recession."

Robert,
Unfortunately, the AGW folks seem
to be in a can’t lose situation. If the temperature DID
continue to rise, more controls and control of mankind would be
necessary. But, as the ice age cometh, the AGW crowd says,
“See, our controls are working already and more controls will
hasten our salvation.”
Keep up the good work.
