Well, this is unexpected news. The worrywarts at NASA now say that instead of killing us global warming could, in fact, save us from a cold, miserable death in the next ice age.
NASA says we need more global warming to prevent this from becoming a common scene in Miami Beach
…According to scientists’ models of Earth’s orbit and orientation toward the Sun indicate that our world should be just beginning to enter a new period of cooling — perhaps the next ice age.
However, a new force for change has arisen: humans. After the industrial revolution, humans introduced increasing amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and changed the surface of the landscape to an extent great enough to influence climate on local and global scales. By driving up carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere (by about 30 percent), humans have increased its capacity to trap warmth near the surface.
So drive that gas guzzler. Turn the heat up in your house. Cancel your plans for that backyard windmill.
Then get a big, furry parka and rent yourself a cave near Palm Springs, baby. The Ice Age is coming.

Maybe they want to preach that to the Mountain Folks in North California who got 104 inches of snow this weekend & the ski’s came out.

Cooling? Opps. Al Whore and the other money pimping loons are on the wrong side of the fence. Watch for an instant flip. ie, “The Global Warming caused by people has resulted in the onset of Global Cooling….just as we predicted in our very secret documents that we were just about to release.”

Ya, this sort of sounds like their way of saving face. We weren’t wrong about global warming but we’ll generously stop trying to push it down your throat now that we’ve been outed.I wonder what the next big scam will be?
BREAKING NEWS:
Boogie man sighted. Experts believe boogie man is angry at human happiness. Al Gore says we must all start being miserable to fight the settled science of the boogie man. Experts propose tax increase to pay for government sponsored boogie man sighting certification program. Citizens will be required to purchase voucher from certified sighter to prove there is no boogie man under their bed. Stay tuned to MSNBC to find out how to tell if you are miserable enough to repel the boogie man and the proper way to starve yourself if our online quiz says you are a high boogie man risk.

Navyvet–
Yep, The Left is always finding some way to spin the rhetoric in their favor for their sheeple to follow orders. So, today it’s this crap. Come spring, they will do a 180. Funny how Al Gore is always missing come winter & only appears from April to September for media interviews? Because he cant sell this garbage at this time. Look at England cancelling thousands of flights. Look at Pineapple Express Storm that entered California & worked its way to Minnesota. Miami folks lost their carrots, fruits, wearing scarves at the beach.

You’re right. Al Gore does disappear every winter. Has anyone ever seen Al Gore and Punxsutawney Phil at the same time?

The con men that have purported mankind’s biggest hoax will not give up easily. There are tens of billions of dollars in grants that are out there. Although this is a nice turn on the old when it is warmer it is AGW and when it is colder it is also AGW.

So where do I apply for my government sponsored SUV, and the free gas to burn in it, so I can drive around helping to prevent the next ice age?

Better yet lets bring back leaded gas and cars with those big old 396, 383, and 440 c.i.d. engines. The muscle cars built in the ’60s that could tear the rear tires off in one weekend would help solve the problem much quicker than these little shoeboxes on tires called cars today.

And my thing is with those light bulbs they force us to use. And the plug in cars can never take the place of gasoline. We need gasoline 1st & foremost. Then the solar shields have 25 years life & cost an arm & leg to purchase with taxpayer bailout which means rationing to the white house favorites list OR redistribution of wealth from the have nots to the haves=welfare nanny state. I could only afford those if I hit the lottery.

Also how pathetic with that loser the Chevy Volt. Folks want nothing to do with it. They prefer to buy SUVs instead of that itty bitty sized car.
Also, with the so called ‘green jobs’ of which there aren’t any since Obummer took over in January 2009, Spain followed this crazy ‘green tech transition’ advice from The Left & look where there economy is now. They have twice the unemployment levels we do {My twin lives there & it’s sad} & still no green jobs & are next for bailout just like Greece.

Those of us old enough to remember heard all this gooberment hooey in the 1960′s. By the year 2000 we were all going to freeze to death if something was not done about greenhouse gasses and pollution. This got us unleaded gas, higher electric bills and job losses due to companies moving their operations to other countries. All for exactly the same reasons that is causing globull warming today.

Obama issued NASA its marching orders – reach out to Muslim countries and pat them on the head is the number one priority. Number two is to ‘prove’ global warming despite the lack of evidence.Speculating that civilized human beings might in some way be a positive force for the planet and humankind is exactly the opposite of their marching orders.

As the winters get progressively colder over the next 20 – 30 years, due to natural, cyclical changes in both climate and the sun’s influence, and vulcanicity, there SHOULD be a lot of backpedalling and overdue humility from NASA and ALL those organizations who, rubbing their hands and taking our money, have helped to promote this mythical human influence which they allege is going to turn the earth into a boiling Armageddon. But I won’t hold my breath, because they collectively have too much to lose, not to mention the political convenience of having the power to control populations by means of fear – not unlike the old USSR and the present day China. The fear is no longer there, as the public now just laugh at these “scientists”. Apart from the irreparable damage that this is doing to science in general, the fear factor no longer works, and the public (hopefully) will no longer allow themselves to be controlled by contrived alarmism and fear. The inevitable destruction of economies (especially in the USA and Europe) obviously has a purpose, and a sinister one. What are we going to do about it, and when?

You have a point. The “open minded progressive thinkers” are doing more damage to actual science than any pope ever did.
Darwin’s theory is no longer a theory?
Nope, it is a fact. Don’t think about it. Don’t question it. Just regurgitate it chapter and verse as the unchanging law of the universe.
Real science is not like that. Real science questions the theories and “things everyone knows”.
Issac Newton was brilliant. Many of his theories were correct. By questioning and testing (the scientific method) others were able to learn some of his theories were incorrect. Now we are telling a whole generation repeatedly “The science is settled. Don’t dare to even question Darwin’s theory of evolution or climate change. If you even ask questions you are like those who deny the holocaust.”
That is progressive freedom of thought?
How long before we loose the freedom to know 2+2= 4?

And, Isaac Newton believed in the God of Creation. We didn’t come from monkeys. But, because there’s a drawing of the transition from monkey to man in every science room in our schools, that’s what our kids are being taught (along with global warming). If the monkeys were smart enough to invent the camera, they could have filmed the whole thing. Then, we could have actual photos in our science books, instead of a drawing. Stupid monkeys.

This all seemed to me to be TOO coincidental.
1. NBC, MessNBC propping up Obama since 2007.
2. NBC, MessNBC owned by GE SO therefore NBC=GE
3. NBC buys Weather Channel & fires half the Great meteorologists.
4. GE now involved in NASA more than before.
5. Al ‘Heat Miser’ Gore moves to Hollywood to make more Climate Hoax films.
6. NASA now doing this…Follow the money trail…East Anglia all over again.
Since a mission to tamper with weather satellites is in the works possibly

That was fast!
The weather doesn’t change as frequently or as drastically as these “scientists” moods.
I respected NASA at one time. Now they are just another bureaucracy kept on life support by the
theft of our property. Private industry could easily replace them and at Wall Street’s worst, it couldn’t be half as evil.
