GW not really as bad as predicted?

[Tommyh]

Not sure who wrote this but the term "alarmist computer models" doesnt lead one to believe that it was written by someone who was happy with the way the whole AGW thing got blown up.

They are saying GW is a hoax?????????????????????????????????????????????? ?

So hard to believe.

I thought this was debunked a couple of years ago. Something about a group of scientist 'fudged' some results to get increased funding and the whole issue took on a life of its own.

Even if I'm not remembering this correctly it's good to see some NASA data that pokes a few holes in the claimed gw issue.

Its not GW its called climate change these days. GW was just another way for people to make money and be used as political pressure.

How does heat exist in the vacuum of space? There's some physics implied here that don't make sense. Maybe related to the anti-matter theories that some scientists believe hold promise for use as an energy source.

Oh, and AGW is BS.

Ever noticed how, ever since the science came into question, environmentalists switched from the term "global warming" to "climate change?" They KNOW that man's impact on the environment is FAR less than they would like the public to believe.

This is not to say we don't need to find ways to impact the environment less. Who DOESN'T want cleaner air and water and to have a smaller impact on the environment? Unfortunately, what is a great cause has been run by radicals who have uses it as a political football to terrify the public into policies that go way too far way too fast.

Eight paragraphs and he uses "alarmist" or "alarmism" 16 times. That's gotta be a record!

Ah yes, the Heartland Institute... funded by ExxonMobil for climate propaganda (including that warming would be beneficial if it did occur) and Phillip Morris to question the link between second hand smoke and health risks.

This is why i put the terms "alarmist" and such in my original thread. it just seemed odd to say it that often.

Agreed.

No bias there!

He did manage to get it published in Forbes so I'm sure the ant bed can consider itself kicked.

the actual article is in a "peer reviewed" journal so its got to be factual. can't discount that portion! i always hear that from the other side

Actually, "Climategate" itself was debunked.

The "peer reviewed journal" is Remote Sensing... it's so remote I can't even find any good links that reflect the author's " 16 multi-alarmist" opinion!

but... but... the polar bears will drown!

Im going to say that human speculation has always been the big question when it came to this whole mess, but so far, it just appeared to be another warming trend like others. we'll see...
