Global Warming Or Climate Change

Global Warming 1973 To 2006

Ice Age Vs Global Warming

Climatologists extemporaneously claimed that global temperatures were precipitously dropping at a record-setting rate back in the 1970's. They also claimed that aerosol and chlorofluorocarbons (found in Freon and canned hair spray) were culpable. They asserted that this combination of scenarios would probably cause another Ice Age.
In the same time period, however, scientists were claiming that Greenhouse Gases would cause Global Warming in the coming decades. This was during the time when California was covered by a hovering blanket of smog and industrial pollution was under the microscope of scrutiny.

Global Warming In The 1980’s

In the 1980's, Global Warming, or the dangers of CO2 emissions was found in few headlines. Scientific studies were conducted, but the public knew very little about it. Many sources, such as volcanic activity, aerosol propellants, nuclear testing, space exploration, and several other scenarios were labeled a threat to the world. Emissions from gasoline and oil engines, coal-burning electric plants, and industrial plants were the main culprits.
This was the Genesis of computers and programs were designed specifically to keep track of global temperatures and weather trends. It did not take long for the prediction that the global temperature average would rise several degrees by the turn of the 21st century – this was incorrect.
Global Warming Stopped

Global Warming Ended In 1998

Global warming rhetoric heated up in this decade and 117 climate predictions were released. 114 of them were vastly incorrect and only three were close to the actual recordings. The general consensus was that the average global temperature would rise 2 degrees Centigrade by 2010 - this did not happen. In fact, it remained the same from 1998 to 2016.
The temperature rose just 0.7 degrees from 1989 to 1998, if the measuring process was accurate. There is no scientific link between human activity and this infinitesimal rise. There is also no scientific proof that CO2 caused it. If there was evidence of the aforementioned, the temperature would have continued to rise.
Since 1998, the temperature has been steady and not rising one iota. This notion has baffled the environmentalists and Green scientists. They have since said that the globe is on a hiatus and the warming will continue again.

The Millennium

The year 2000 came and went without the predicted “Y2K” computer crashes that had been so widely predicted. Many Global Warming predictions were draught in the new millennium. After Al Gore’s crushing defeat in the 2000 presidential election, he set his sights on Global Warming – and he raked in over $100 million.
In 2007, 2008, and 2009, the former Vice President Gore predicted the Polar ice caps would vanish by the year 2013. He vehemently proclaimed that “man-made Global Warming” would melt them down and the oceans will flood the Earth. The inconvenient truth to this prediction is that the caps have doubled in size and the water level has lessened.

Post 2010

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) made bold predictions in 2010. This group of scientists is from many countries and they are paid to find results that support Global Warming. If they do not find it, their services are no longer needed. These are the very same countries that pointedly declared that there were Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq preceding the war.
The Predictions:
1 – “Most aspects of Climate Change will persist for many centuries even if emissions of CO2 are stopped.”
2 – “It is very likely that the Arctic Sea ice cover will continue to shrink and thin and that Northern Hemisphere spring snow will decrease during the 21st century.”
3 – “Global glacier volume will further decrease.”
4 – ”Global surface temperature from the end of the 21st century is likely to exceed 1.5 degrees centigrade… and more likely 2 degrees.”
5 – “The contrast in precipitation between wet and dry regions and between wet and dry seasons will increase.”
This was the most aggressive approach to date. These optics were developed to terrify the citizenry into conformity. Emotion is the greatest tool in all political realms. Of course, none of them has come to fruition so far. They always predict decades ahead so they can never be held culpable.
Global Warming Failed Predictions

Failed Predictions On Climate Change And Global Warming

The first species that has gone extinct because of Climate Change was the Aldabra banded snail. They were declared extinct in 2007 but the pesky critters were discovered, or rediscovered, in August of 2014. There they were, swimming in the Indian Ocean near the island of Seychelles carefree and unfettered. Their demise was unbeknownst to them.
In the heat of summer in 2012, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) declared that this was the hottest summer on record in the United States of America. The previous hottest day was recorded in 1936.
Soon thereafter, it was discovered that the temperature was changed for 1936 to give the appearance of 2012 as being the hottest. Without explanation, the NOAA has reinstated 1936 as the hottest summer in the USA.
The winter of 2009-2010 was the coldest winter on record in the last 35 years. The winter of 2012-2013 is the second coldest winter during this interim. The summers have been quite mild on average this century.
In 2013, an Antarctic expedition vessel was trapped in sea ice 100 miles offshore in 10-foot thick ice – the same ice that was predicted to be gone. Three icebreakers failed to reach the ship to rescue them and they too became stuck. 

Ironically, the first ship was full of scientists looking for evidence of Global Warming. They were comparing information from last century to the 2013 information – there was no sea ice there 100 years ago.
Several rowboats, canoes, Yachts, and sailboats also were stuck in the Arctic Sea ice in the summer of 2012. They were all under the impression that their voyage through the Northwest Passage would be ice-free.
Secretary of State John Kerry, along with Al Gore, predicted that the entire Arctic region would have no ice. In fact, the antithesis to their predictions developed – the ice has doubled to the 2nd highest sea ice level on record.


Trade Winds

New research by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) stated that the previous warming was due to changes in atmospheric circulation. In other words; it was the wind. The simplicity of wind can vastly affect global temperatures.
Wind patterns change constantly and seldom stays the same for very long. The wind can pound heat into the ocean and it can also pick up coolness from the water. The NAS admits that this new finding alters the fundamentals of global warming information.
The National and Atmospheric Administration says that this study will greatly effect trending temperature interpretations at a global level. Simply put; this is a game changer for future assessments and predictions. Then came a big change. Goodbye to Global Warming, hello to Climate Change.

In Closing

Apparently, if it rains too much, rains not enough, or a hurricane comes by, or it is a sunny day, it is all due to Climate Change. With this perfect scenario, any condition can be allotted to Global Warming or Climate Change. This intentionally vague name is the one-size fits all approach.
President Obama and Green enthusiasts tout that it is real and the debate is over. When Democrats acclaim that the debate is over -- it means they are losing the argument. Never debate, just demand. This debate is far from over and it will be heatedly discussed for decades to come.
The temperature recordings used to declare Global Warming or Climate Change goes back a little over 100 years. Considering that the Earth is 4.54 billion years old, this is an infinitesimal amount of time to deduce any such conclusions.

A cleaner Earth is desirable by most conscientious folks. However, even if we got CO2 emissions to zero, Russia, China, and Egypt, who are the biggest pollution offenders, will not join in this cause. It simply costs exorbitantly too much, and coal and oil are plentiful. If the alarmists are correct, we are doomed no matter what the U.S. does.
I am not a Global Warming or Climate Change opponent, nor am I a proponent. I could not feel more indifferent on the matter. It has never been scientifically proved, that, A) Global Warming exists and that it is caused by humans, or, B) Climate Change, whatsoever this word means, is a deleterious condition caused by the human race.

Humility Embraced

I was in the supermarket today and they were quite busy. Near the end of my trek, a man passed by me and I noticed his hat. It read, "Iraq Dessert Storm Veteran." I let him pass without a word because I know most Veteran's do not want recognition from pedestrians like myself. 

His walk listed to the starboard side while his carriage propped his body. I knew his lumbering walk was intended to disguise an injury, so I approached him. 

I approached him from bow and requested, "Excuse me, sir, might I have a word?" 
He did not look at me, but he stopped. 

I said, "Thank you for protecting magnificent idiots like me. Idiots, just like me." 

He tilted his head in my direction, stood up tall, and shook my hand without making eye contact. I noticed a half-a-grin as he did so and he walked away fully upright. This was a real man. A hero. A volunteer. An American who simply wanted to protect his compatriots. 

I stood right there for at least five minutes. I had not earned the right to walk alongside him. The people behind me were irritated, but, I was indifferent about the observers. When the time came where I could not see him any longer, I proceeded to travel to the register. 

Every man wants to do something great, something noble, something selfless, even if only for a moment. This man did this when he signed on the dotted.  

I left the checkout line and put back the sack of Kit Kat bars I had selfishly tossed into my cart. By no means does this make us equals, but I felt compelled to do something, anything, any sacrifice at that moment. I’m not that bright...

Is Net Neutrality Good Or Bad



Net Neutrality: Another Government Grab


The media has cast upon the American citizenry much ado about net neutrality. They have bloviated an equal amount of facts and fiction on the topic. This article will present a simple explanation as to why the U.S. government wanted this so badly.

If you were content with your internet in 2010, 2012, or 2014, you have nothing to worry about. Net neutrality is all about government regulations and oversight. The Feds are only good at three things; creating, collecting, and wasting taxpayer dollars.

You can explain away why the FCC regulates radio and television. AM radio was allotted certain frequencies so they don't cut into airline communications, for example. FM is a much higher frequency and is restricted to their frequencies. Otherwise, CB radios would interfere with police, fire, and abulatory communications.

The internet was never regulated until 2015 and much of the entirety of regulatory machinations had not been implemented to this day. What the Obama Administration wanted was complete control of all that is internet. And eventually hand over that control to the U.N. The U.N. does nothing for free, so the cost would cost taxpayers a pretty penny.



Unregulated Internet Advanced Without Them

Al Gore’s wonderful invention of the internet exploded in as far as technology and speed without government. How could this be? The free market is not supposed to operate more efficiently or faster than the government -- according to the government.


Look at cellular phones. Cellular technology was created in 1940. It was immediately suppressed by government and delayed cell phone advancement for 50 years. FM radio was stifulled for 30 years before the government would allow it to exist.


Net neutrality would have enabled the president --  whosoever is president at the time -- to cut deals with corporations with expectations that the corporation would return the favor. Neutrality supporters believe that the government is the benevolent savior and makes certain that everyone is treated fairly. This is Alice In Wonderland ideates.




Neutrality Is An Attack On The First Amendment


In 2010, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled that the Federal Communications Commision does not have the power to regulate an internet provider’s network. Yet, that did not stop them from doing so in 2015.


This is a classic case of one hand of government not knowing -- or is it not caring in this case -- what another hand of government is doing. Comcast sued the FCC once the tried to control what Comcast could and could not put on their network sites.


The court ruled that the FCC did not have “express statutory authority” from the U.S. Congress to regulate the internet. Because of these court rulings, net neutrality is illegal, an attack on free speech, and government overreach.

Jimmy Kimmel Crocodile Tears




Hypocrisy At Its Best 

Jimmy Kimmel cries for gun control while he rests under the blanket of a security team. His team members are packing Glock pistols and he has proliferated his armed security since he began his rampage of rants - on his comedy show. Ironic, but in no way comedic.  

Who is allocating this outlandish misinformation, and why? Chuck Schumer spoon-feeds Kimmel his esoteric talking points and he gleefully spews them to his susceptible liberal audience. They gobble it up and feel quixotic about his noble quest.  

It's all about the 2018 and 2020 elections. The Democrats have been losing seats at the federal, gubernatorial, and local levels since Schumer and Pelosi took over the helm. They have lost these seats precipitously each year to the tune of over one thousand lost. 

Chuck is using the late show talking heads to indoctrinate the viewers minds with hatred and resentment toward Republicans - especially for President Donald Trump. These clowns speaking to politics is as legitimate as Michael Moore praising Weight Watchers for his physique. 




Fake Sincerity 

"The secret of success is sincerity. Once you can fake that you've got it made." - Jean Giraudoux. 

Crocodile tears flow down Kimmel's face while he conterminously pleads gun control righteousness on his soap box. Elmer Fudd would be more believable than this ersatz character. Robotic and predictable are his moral pleas for humanity.  

Kimmel stands on a holier ground than the rest of the citizenry - according to him. He knows what is best for the country. However, he shares no new propositions; but something, anything, must come to fruition. Vacuous thought, insipid ideas, and fatuous enlightenment are all he brings to the table. 

Liberal progressives like Kimmel want to eradicate all guns from the USA while he is contemporaneously protected by them. They dare not say it, but that is their inglorious goal. They can never share this sentiment insofar as they would be shunned. Instead, like an ice sculptor, they must chip away a little at a time. But they remain steadfast as they encroach their ultimate dream.  




Impoverished Urban Prisoners 

Meanwhile, they pay no mind to the horrific carnage in our inner cities. Chicago is often a go-to city for example and the media refuses to divulge the death swamp it has been for decades. Chicagoan politicians boast of their gun control policies. 2.08 murders per day, every day. Most of which are young African Americans, yet the poets in media write nothing at all.  

Since 2001, more people have been slain in the windy city than in Afghanistan.

Philadelphia, Ferguson, Detroit, Los Angeles, St Louis, and Cleveland are among the states with the highest murder rates in the country. All these cities have several things in common. They are all overwhelmingly inhabited by African Americans. Unemployment is outlandishly high and usually well over 20 percent.  

Why don’t the late-night heroes talk about these tragic deaths? They can't. If they did, they would expose a fact that these liberal gurus do not want you to know. They choose politics over saving lives. There will be no tears shed for these young murder victims.  

Most of these city dwellers live in squalor their entire life. They are corralled into small areas and there is no way out. A Planned Parenthood is always plopped in the epicenter of the slums. One last thing that is all too common; they are all run by liberal politicians and have been for a one-half century. They are all victims of Democrat leadership – or lack thereof.
