THE HUNDRED YEARS' CLIMATE WAR

Consider the headline possibilities had Al Gore been FDR's running mate:

......'All We Have To Fear Is Air Itself ' ROOSEVELT & GORE
..............DECLARE NEW DEAL ON GLOBAL WARMING

.. League  of  Nations Scientists Warn Of  Meltdown
                   .  ..         If  Hoover Re-elected

............    Too corny for you ?  What about  :

..........'Fish Will Swim In Buckingham Palace'

.............................Wait a minute- that's not a parody-- 
........................It's a real quote from The New York Times !

Forget the 1938 Hurricane, the Dust Bowl or the climate destroying Niton Ray of art deco Eco-terrorist Ming the Merciless. In 1932 The Times rendered The Great Depression even more depressing with this forecast of the shape of things to come:

'The Earth is steadily growing warmer. As all the ice at the two poles melts a stupendous volume of water will be released.

Fish will swim in Buckingham Palace...New York will be marked by the...taller skyscrapers as they jut out of the water...the climate..as when dinosaurs roamed the earth and dense jungles...grew in...Canada.

Palms and alligators would flourish at the poles ...man's food supply will not ...it is a question if he will survive '

[MSgt Robert Steely]

Sir,

I want to say thanks for responding personally to my blog post.

I am no physicist and don't intend to debate the intricacies of climatology with one such as yourself. But I do think I have a marginal bit of common sense and when Al Gore shows pictures of Kilamanjaro, I want to know if what he's showing is true.

Maybe there's less snow because of deforestation and localized drought, not because of my carbon footprint.

The intent of my post was to let people know of the obvious bias and agenda driven politics they hear when told about global warming today.

All we hear are the apocalyptic stories about what may happen. 75 years ago scientists noticed polar caps melting. They reported it as science - not propaganda.
The global temp has risen 1 degree in 75 years. Carbon diozide has increased, yep. I'm not saying GW isn't/doesn't happen. I don't buy that it's all the fault of man.

BTW - I don't mean any disrespect, but I've gotten into arguments with base weather when they tell me over the phone it's not raining, while I'm standing in a thunderstorm training troops.

You do honor me with a personal response however, a first for me. And I value the input you have to give. Thanks again

So Russell what's to make of this? It's all hype and no substance? I think not. Kilimanjaro is backed up by a majority of tropical glacier demise, and everyone can find something to support their claims in that one famous mountain. of course the answer is both, which confounds the either/or crowd. The latter is a fallacy for a reason.

[Mark A. York]

And remember Sgt. Steely, weather isn't climate, so beware of a weatherman claimning to debunk a climate scientist.

[John, Channel Isles]

And remember Mr York, Earths atmosphere isn't a UN IPCC computer model, so beware a UN IPCC 'expert' claiming he's seen tomorrows weather.

[John Stanton]

You mean the climate scientists that work for Greenpeace and The Sierra Club that are on the panel of the IPCC. Let's get real folks. 2500 so called scientists were in Balley for the IPCC meeting. Of those 2500 only 25 actually read the portion on carbon and man and most of the dissagreed. The facts are not there at all. In fact the polar Ice caps that were melting last summer....They are more frozen now then ever due to the coldest winter in 100 years. The sun is in a calm state which always mean we will be getting colder. If you don't believe me, just wait till next winter. This global warming BS is simply a way for governemnts around the world to take more control over people and business i.e. The carbon tax in the UK.

My teacher taught a lesson today about how climate change starts war, which is called 'climate wars,' but she didn't get to finish it. Is this true? How and why does this happen?

How does climate change cause war?
