"Global Warming"
"There are ominous signs that the Earth’s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically and that these changes may portend a drastic decline in food production with serious political implications for just about every nation on Earth.
The drop in food output could begin quite soon, perhaps only 10 years from now. The evidence in support of these predictions has now begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologists are hard-pressed to keep up with it. Last April, in the most devastating outbreak of tornadoes ever recorded, 148 twisters killed more than 300 people and caused half a billion dollars’ worth of damage in 13 U.S. states. To scientists, these seemingly disparate incidents represent the advance signs of fundamental changes in the world’s weather. The stagnant air produced in this way causes an increase in extremes of local weather such as droughts, floods, extended dry spells...... “The world’s food-producing system,” warns Dr. James D. McQuigg of NOAA’s Center for Climatic and Environmental Assessment, “is much more sensitive to the weather variable than it was even five years ago.” Climatologists are pessimistic that political leaders will take any positive action to compensate for the climatic change, or even to allay its effects. The longer the planners delay, the more difficult will they find it to cope with climatic change once the results become grim reality." The above quote is taken from an April 28th Newsweek article from 1975 -- preparing us for the end of the world. The article goes on to describe how they were at the onset of the next ice age and "global cooling". Isn't it interesting how it sounds so much like today's hysteria about "global warming"? Indeed, the facts described above must be taken with all seriousness. Because one thing is true -- there is a disaster beyond imagination waiting to happen. That disaster is the governments of the world creating laws regarding global warming which will raise prices, cause financial calamities, and leave the world hungry and poor. All for the profit of global companies that are gearing up to take advantage of this latest mass hysteria. Look at what was happening in the winter of 2007/2008 as the global warming zealots were close to convincing the majority that their hysteria was true: --China
has its coldest winter in 100 years --North
America has the most snow cover in 50 years --Record low temperatures were recorded worldwide --Snow fell in Buenos Aires for the first time since 1918 --South Africa had more snow than the previous 26 years --Record
levels of Antarctic sea ice
--Oregon recorded temperatures 12 degrees colder than the 1952 record
--Global
temperature tracking outlets have released
data showing global temperatures have
dropped significantly The list goes on but you get the drift. And what was their excuse? "Global warming can lead to temporary global cooling." ...How convenient it is to have an 'end of the earth' theory that you can spin any direction that the weather blows! What is perfectly clear is that the hysteria of the 70's was rubbish and it's more than likely that the hysteria of the 21st century is equally flawed. There are simply too many factors in the equation. The advocates of the 'sky is falling' pick and choose the details that make their point. The advocates of 'it's not happening at all' also pick and choose their facts. If anyone actually looked at this with intellectual honesty and without the rose colored glasses of huge profits and billions of tax dollars available for those on the winning side, they would see that we know nothing about the future.
After all, they rarely get tomorrow's
forecast correct! -- Can anyone really believe that they have the next 100 years' weather forecast, for the entire planet, figured out? Unfortunately, some are falling for it. |
