I hate to break it to you, but they could do that thousands of years ago.
Right... Even primitive man could predict the changing of the seasons and that fact serves to demonstrate that climate is more predictable than weather.
Mr Owl,
So you don't think that "weather" and "climate" have anything to do with one another?
If it snows in Florida in the month of May was it climate change or was it a weather anomaly?
Which one are you saying that you or the scientists that you have faith in can predict?
I also believe that a few hundred years ago there was a cooling period that plagued parts of this planet to the point where it was difficult to get a bite to eat in places.Gee! Did man make that happen? Or is that just something that the "true believers" in global warming just want to forget about?
And please ................. don't say that the global cooling hoax of the 70's didn't have supporters. I sent up quite a few high altitude balloons at the bottom of the world with equipment attached looking for evidence to the yea or nay of it all.
The "Global Warming" believers are no different than the "Global Cooling" believers in the respect that they seem to want to believe in something that they simply can not prove with 100 % accuracy.
Maybe we need to look at what generates funds for and motivates certain segments of the scientific community! It's called funding! And I have aways found it amazing that the more screwey the idea that certain "brain trusts" come up with the more funding that they can get to come up with even more excitingly screwey off the wall theories of gloom and doom.
Of course you must realize that without "gloom and doom" there is no excitement and their funding dries up. And when their funding dries up they revert back to smelly, badly dressed pseudo intellectuals who head back to the Boon's Farm bottle. With funding they still dress and smell bad, but drink much better wine.
It is simply to the advantage of the scientific community to embrace theories such as this so that they can make money without ever producing a a damed thing of value.
When our water was polluted we cleaned it up. When acid rain was taking the paint off of buildings we did something about it. And it truely bennifited this planet and it's inhabitants. We stopped allowing feon and other compounds to be freely expelled into the atmosphere. We made it so that cars didn't smoke and burned the fuel very efficently.
But when people like myself said that maybe we should really think about converting to nuclear power generation we were shouted down by the same scientists who have now switched gears and have even said that nukes are now better than fossil fuel plants.
There are those who still don't like that and say that we should go with wind and solar. Hey! Not a bad idea and I'm actually for it. Hell! Even that Kennedy that's thrown in with that creep Chavez says that wind power is a good thing ......................... unless it's something that he and the rest of his inbred clan have to see from their summer compound. Of course the wind tables back up the fact that where they should be is where the Kennedy's don't want them. Of course if they were somewhere where you had to look at them you can bet your ass that Kennedy would have shoved them down you throat.
I think and believe what we are looking at is simply a way for a sect few to make a zillion dollars off the backs of the US tax payers with hairbrained schemes that will never be proven and will do nothing but give a bunch of educated street people looking scientists a free ride to go off on tangents while making the super rich even richer.
And should you be a democrat you have to go along with the whole play cause thats what Hillary wants you to do!
What I do kinds know is that sometimes things run in cycles and this just might be one of them.
It would be unfortunate if the "Barnum and Bailey" politician talk us all into buying into the biggest hoaxs perpatrated in the history of mankind.
