But Why Invent Global Warming?

Answer: to get research funds that have been made available. The Australian government recently granted $7.8 million to the CSIRO to investigate Greenhouse Gases. Some gases are sure to be found. In the 1960s geophysicists believed that with enough resources they could predict earthquakes, lobbied hard, and in 1966 the Japanese government funded a $270million per year into the program. In 1997, after wasting $2.7 billion dollars on no results, the program was axed. A research team is presently in Antarctica to study ice depth. They envisage this to be a 10 year project. In 2004 $4.3 billion was earned by the global warming industry. Most was invested in research and development, but media fed at the trough too, while various governments instituted new bureaucracies and taxed emissions industries. Fear is bankable. If a population can be convinced that global warming is occurring, there is money to be made. What started off as a small group now has thousands of employees drawing wages.


I've just seen an article on the BBC news website about global warming and I had to comment about it in my blog

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/6263690.stm

basically it's saying people are sceptical about man's influence on the global climate, if you look at the comments on this article 90% of them are not as you would imagine or expect for what the green lobby are asking for i.e. reducing carbon footprints (lovely sound bite that one) etc., but quite simply do not believe that man who has been around for a mere blink of an eye in the time scale of the planet earth, has had any major effect on the current climate change, most do agree that man has had "some" effect on climate, but not to the extent that some scientists are saying, the industrial revolution has only really been hardcore for the past 200 years, are they seriously saying that everything pollution wise produced by man in the last 200 years, outweighs every volcano this planet has ever had ? every meteorite strike ? every forest fire in the last 6.5 billion years ?????? a major volcanic eruption produces more greenhouse gases in one month than an entire country ever has


Most see it as a cynical attempt by the various governments to tax us more and more about something that cannot be proven beyond any doubt, and you can see the sense in that argument, if you tax the population on something that cannot be proven, then you will never be found out as liars and consequently will reap massive amounts of revenue from this form of taxation. It isn't helped by the rabid lentilista brigade and wannabe hippies who want you to recycle your own poo and convert it into methane to run your 2 stroke moped on a moped lift sharing scheme!!!

I firmly believe that although man has had "some" effect on the climate, it is not as bad as the scientists claim (most of whom are funded by government hand outs to research climate change anyway), we are after all coming out of the last ice age, so logically it is going to get warmer, polar ice caps ARE going to melt, water levels WILL rise, as they have many times before man ever walked the earth, it is in the ice core samples taken from the Antarctic it's all happened before, CO2 levels will increase as they did before but no more than they have in the past, and consequently when they do, plant life will flourish, as it did before in the Cretaceous period where the earth was covered with lush plant life fuelled by the CO2 rich atmosphere and pumped out massive amounts of oxygen as it's by product, then balance was restored when eventually they died and were compressed and turned into fossil fuel, another thing I find totally laughable is CO2 rising into the atmosphere ???? anybody with a smattering of science knows that CO2 is heavier than air, CO2 does not rise into the atmosphere....it sinks, that's why balloons blown up with your lungs simply drop to the floor when released and that's why CO2 fire extinguishers work, the gas settles over the fire and removes the oxygen needed for the fire to burn, if it was lighter than air it would simply rise and be replaced with oxygen, elements of CO2 do rise through turbulence in the weather systems, but it really wants to sink back down to earth, but that's gravity for you !!! it sucks !!!

Humans haven't been around long enough to make informed predictions on 250 years worth of data gathered since weather records were first started. 250 years worth of weather data is a not even a pin prick in comparison to how long the earth has been around, unless you are a Christian of course but Christians only think the world is 6000 years old (estimate)

I am all for not being wasteful, but when our Government try and tax us into submission, by increasing road tax based on emissions and road fuel taxation and rising prices on so called "bad energy" and even taxing biofuels !! and still, all that money raised from "green" taxes is simply poured into the state with no concern for funding really beneficial projects that help everybody.

If the government was that concerned about being "green" they could have ring fenced those green taxes and poured the cash raised into something like the introduction of heat exchangers into every home in the UK, not hundreds of wind farms or wave energy farms dotted around the country generating minuscule amounts of energy dependant on the wind or waves and blighting the countryside for years to come, and I won't even begin to discuss the ludicrous Bristol channel/river severn barrage, yes it will generate millions of megawatts, but at what cost to the environment and animals ? I should imagine it will mince quite a few million tons of fish as they pass through it's turbine blades at speed, the really smart fish will of course go through the courtesy fish gates.........(I don't think so) !!!

Getting back to heat exchangers they would tap into the massive amounts of FREE heat beneath our feet, negating the need for millions of people to pay for their heat, including the elderly, You only have to go down into a coal mine to realise how hot it gets down there, completely naturally, for a few thousand pounds a heat exchanger could heat a house all year around including the hot water FREE of charge FOREVER!! Except for the minimal cost involved in the electric pump required to pump the solution around the pipes to extract the heat and dissipate it into your house, and even with the electric pump it's only a minute fraction of what it costs to burn fossil fuels to heat the same house

But like all governments before this one, it's all about grand gestures, higher taxes, spin, corruption, you name it they have their finger in the financial pie, but nothing is EVER done to improve the lives of millions of people, they wring their hands in despair at our current plight, introduce more green taxes to supposedly discourage us, impose more controls over how we live our lives, invade our privacy etc..

And they wonder why we end up not believing them and throwing them out of government??? For it all to start again.....

Personally I'm still waiting for the ice age we were promised in the 70's when scientists categorically stated that we were heading for a massive drop in temperature as we plunged into the next ice age......ooops sorry they got it wrong, they meant "Global Warming" instead.... how careless of them
