Anti-carbon
dioxide schemes
will destroy the planet.
The scientifically
unsustainable theories of global warming are bad enough without the ecoalarmists
who fabricated the myth in order to justify oil price gouging by the oil
barons to curb the demand for oil. Oil company-financed ecoalarmists now
offer "solutions" to a global problem that simply doesn't exist.
Environmentalists are now using computer modeling to find hypothetical
solutions to the hypothetical problem of global warming. What is the problem
in their view? Planet Earth is a carbon dioxide junkie. The ecoalarmists
believe that, just on the off-chance that their computer models are correct,
science needs to have a global warming methadone fix ready to protect
the world from its inhabitants.
Unfortunately
for the world and its population, the ecoalarmistswho are financed
by men with the monetary resources and political power to implement environmental
change on a global scale even if they can't convince the world a problem
actually existshave been convinced that man-produced carbon dioxide
is the culprit that causes global warming. Environmentalists like former
Vice President Al Gore, Jr. don't understand, or care, that carbon
dioxide is the substance plants converts to oxygen. Carbon dioxide is
the food that increases crop yields globally to feed the world. Drastic
cut backs in carbon dioxide will not only reduce crop yields worldwide,
it will also make it more difficult to purify the air we breathe. In other
words, carbon dioxide is a necessary catalyst in the creation of the three
elements we need most to live: food, air and water.
Man-instigated,
carbon dioxide-orchestrated global warming is a myth engineered in the
mid-1960s (along with carbon dioxide-created global cooling) by ecoalarmists
financed by the oil industry to curb the use, but not the escalating cost,
ofyou guessed itoil. To make drilling for deep
oil economical, the oil barons need a benchmark oil price in the $100
per barrel range. First, to keep oil pegged at the magic threshold, the
oil industry needs to create, and maintain, an artificial shortage of
the most bountiful commodity in the world. Second, the oil industry needs
to curb the human zeal to waste it. Enter the environmentalist. Funded
in part by oil industry foundations, the environmentalists' job is to
convince the world they need to preserve the environment in its pristine
state by preventing oil drillers from disturbing the ecological balance
of nature, or nasty entrepreneurs from smelling up our cities by refining
it.
The oil industry-funded
ecoalarmists like Al Gore scream for drastic cutbacks in the use
of oil, arguing that man-generated carbon fuel emissions are causing global
warming and that, in fifty to one hundred years, greenhouse gases will
convert Planet Earth into a global atrium. At that time, the core planetary
temperature will begin to rise dramatically, melting the polar caps and
raising sea levels to such a degree that sea level Florida will become
Venice-under-the-sea and several island nations around the world will
become 21st century Atlantises.
The only problem
with Gore's inconvenient truth is that it's pure, unadulterated
Chicken Little bunk. Not that global warming isn't real. It is. It just
isn't caused by you or me. It's caused by cyclic solar activity combined
with planetary greenhouse gases. In other words, blame Mother Nature not
people.
Research
on the sun's contribution to global warming was reported in the October,
2003 issue of Astronomy & Geophysics magazine. By looking
at solar activity over the last 11,000 years, British Antarctic
Survey (BAS) astrophysicist, Mark Clilverd, predicted that
the sun's contribution to global warming will decrease over the next 100
years. As you will see, what that means is, Al Gore's inconvenient
truth is a rather convenient lie.
Throughout the
20th century, solar flares, sunspots and geomagnetic storms, increased
in number. According to Astronomy & Geophysics, "...this
rise is simultaneous with emissions of greenhouses gases and an estimated
increase in solar heat output, which together have warmed the Earth's
temperature by a global average of 0.7 degrees centigrade. The solar contribution
to the increase is variously estimated to be around 20% leaving greenhouse
gases to make up the remaining 80%." Science Daily
concluded that Clilverd and his colleagues believe solar activity
is about to peak. Clilverd predicted there will be less solar activity
in the 21st century.
Space storms
will decline by as much as two thirds according to Clilverd's statistical
research. Clilverd and his colleagues assume solar heat output
will decline accordingly. Which means when we reach mid-century, it's
likely we will begin to experience global coolingwhich the ecoalarmists
will then blame on carbon fuel emissions. Science Daily
reported that "...Clilverd examined data from sun spot
activity, geomagnetic storm indices and looked at the variation of atmospheric
radiocarbon derived from studies of tree rings and marine sediments to
make his predictions. [Clilverd admitted that], 'This work is speculative
and relies on the idea that the sun shows regular cycles of activity on
time scales of 10 to 10,000 years and that its heat output and activity
are related...We believe the...effect of solar activity on Earth's environmental
system will not increase in the way it has during the last century. We
should take this into account when trying to understand the impact of
human activity on our climate system.'"
Confirming Clilverd's
views was a report issued by the American Institute of Physics
from a recent study by researchers at Duke University and the Army
Research Office. Their research found new evidence of the
link between solar flare activity and the earth's temperature. Their findings
call into question the ecoalarmists' view of the influence humans have
on the temperature of our environment.
"One
of the challenges of determining the connection between solar flare activity
and the atmosphere stems from the fact that the motion of the air that
blankets our planet is turbulent and complex," the Duke study
confirms. "Sudden bursts of solar activity heat the air and its
interaction with the earth's surface." The Duke study compares
the statistical fluctuations in solar flare activity with the statistical
fluctuations of the earth's temperature. Analyses of global and local
temperature fluctuations suggest to that Earth's atmosphere directly inherits
its temperature fluctuations from the variation in solar flare activity.
As science learns to measure solar flares and sun storms better, they
will discover that solar activity will ultimately prove to be the largest
single contributing factor to cyclic global warming. Providing,
of course, that the ecoalarmists don't destroy the planet trying to protect
it from its inhabitants for the oil giants who want to conserve what they
believe is a rapidly depleting commodityoil.
Ecoalarmistswho
have already spent billions of oil company dollars to sell the oil baron's
mythare now prepared to spend trillions of dollars in crazy schemes
to save the world from itself before the world realizes it doesn't need
saving. In February, British billionaire Sir Richard Branson offered
a $25 million prize to the first company to develop the technology to
reduce carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. Branson, like the
rest of the world's eco-idiots, doesn't seem to understand that carbon
dioxide creates the air they breatheproviding we don't starve first
from food yields that will diminish in direct proportions to reduction
in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. If the world doesn't stop the carbon
dioxide meddlers, what air is left on planet Earth will be devoid of oxygen
because the "food" plants consume to produce the oxygen we breathe
is the carbon dioxide the eco-idiots are trying to get rid of.
Planktos,
Inc., a Foster City, California company sent its ship, Weatherbird
II, into the Pacific Ocean last week to dump its cargo50 tons
of iron dust on the belief that the iron dust will grow plankton which,
they believe, will begin to drink up excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
The most ludicrous idea yet for reducing carbon dioxide is planting "forests"
of artificial carbon-dioxide devouring trees around the world. These trees,
acting like carbon-dioxide sponges, theoretically will literally suck
the carbon dioxide out of the air. This,
of course, will negatively impact oxygen levels since the artificial trees
will not convert the carbon dioxide into oxygen, it will simply trap and
erase it. Second, if enough carbon dioxide is removed, it could impact
crop yields globally, potentially causing food shortages followed by cries
from the ecoalarmists that they were right all along.
NASA has just
completed a $75 thousand study on the feasibility of creating a solar
sun shield. The nation's premiere ecoalarmist computer modeling center,
the National Center for Atmospheric Researchthe research
arm of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Researchwhich
is funded by some of the nation's wealthiest foundationsincluding
the Pew Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Rockefeller
Brothers Foundation and the Carnegie Trustconceptualized
the notion of a solar sun shield comprised of gigatons of sulfur reflectors
shot into the upper atmosphere, creating a "sunglasses" barrier
between the Earth and the sun. While the current concept is the brainstorm
of University of Arizona astronomer Roger Angel, the idea of using
jet engines, atmospheric balloons and cannons to get thousands of tons
of sulfates into the atmosphere, Nobel
laureate Paul Crutzen and nuclear bomb creator Edward Teller
proposed the same concept after realizing that when Mt. Pinatubo in the
Philippines erupted 16 years ago that the sulfate particles it shot into
the upper atmosphere cooled the whole world for about a year. The project
would cost trillions of dollars with little hope of success. According
to scientists at the Center for Atmospheric Research, tens
of thousands of tons of sulfatesequivalent to a volcanic eruptionwould
have to be shot into the upper atmosphere every month.
Perhaps the
most effective solution to global warming is simply taking the computers
away from the eco-idiots, regulating oil prices by establishing a ceiling
on oil prices at $40 to $50 per barrel, and locking up oil company executives
who finance eco-terrorism as an excuse to raise oil prices.
