Hi everyone, and welcome to the Global Warming Week-in-Review.
Sunday, May 25th:
I took the day off. Sorry, folks. There are just some days there isn’t enough worthwhile news to post.
Monday, May 26th:
The McCain-Lieberman-Warner bill is set for debate in the U.S. Senate beginning Monday, June 2nd. This proposed legislature and final fantasy of environmentalists across the country, would be an economic disaster and would allow the government to regulate emissions of the same gas we exhale. Do we really want more government regulation? The U.N. is back in the news and, as usual, not in a good way. It seems corporations have been bilking them out of carbon credits by applying for them when they really don’t qualify. But we all learned from the oil-for-food scandal that the United Nations just isn’t accountable, or even structured to the point of being able to manage its capital resources. More studies have been performed to understand the economic impact of a carbon tax. It seems an emissions tax implemented in British Columbia would cost exporting industries $500 million annually due to increased cost of goods (and subsequent increased cost of doing business).
Tuesday, May 27th:
Carbon ration cards are now being proposed as a way of reducing greenhouse gases without hurting the poor. The cards can evidently be reloaded with additional carbon credits in the event the cardholder needs to spew more carbon dioxide. What’s not mentioned is the cost of the additional credits. Can the poor really not be hurt by this? Czech President Klaus has written a book on environmentalism - calling the movement ‘communism’ - and has challenged Al Gore to a debate on global warming. Fortunately, the former vice president has a magical way of disappearing whenever someone challenges his ideals.
Wednesday, May 28th:
The message of environmentalism has spread into the military. Now “environmentally-friendly” bombs are being considered so that when we nuke someone, the surrounding ecology won’t be affected. Has the world gone mad? Also, June 12th is Carbon Belch Day. As a protest to the global warming hoax, we’re all encouraged to spew as much carbon dioxide into the air as we desire. Fire up your charcoal grills, gas-guzzling SUVs, turn on every light in your house and be proud of your achievements and the technological advancement of mankind.
Thursday, May 29th:
Someone had the bright idea of turning Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” into a stage production set to debut in 2011. Will it be as boring as the film? The author of Read More: LaiglesForum.com wrote an interesting commentary on how the voice of global warming denial is similar to the dissenting opinion on evolution. They’re both silenced in the media. Tolerance is a one-way street, you know.
Friday, May 30th:
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has placed an environmental game online that tells you when you should die based on your carbon lifestyle. What a sick and twisted action by such a large and well-known corporation. (On a side note, I read on another blog that Al Gore shouldn’t have lived past the age of three.) In case you were curious, you can read about the five myths of the McCain-Lieberman-Warner global warming bill. Hint: it’s not going to help cure global warming.
Saturday, May 31st:
There’s already speculation that the McCain-Lieberman-Warner bill may be doomed. It seems that this is only a dress rehearsal for a real global warming bill in 2009 - right after the elections. And so far this year, 2008 is cooler than last year according to satellite data, even as carbon emissions continue to rise around the globe. If Gore and his merry band of global warming activists can blame this cooling period on La Nina, we can certainly blame the heat wave that was 1998 on El Nino, right? Or does that not work both ways?|
Thanks for dropping by. Enjoy your week!
