Having managed this blog for a few months, I felt it was time to expound on my obvious belief that global warming is a hoax.

My desire to start this blog came from the barrage of news reports that the world would flood and millions killed all because of global warming. However, despise Al Gore’s best efforts to convince me and the rest of the world that there was a scientific consensus, I realized that global warming wasn’t an open-and-shut case; the issue was becoming political, and when politics is involved, there’s money lining someone’s pockets.

While Al Gore may have scientists on his side defending global warming as reality, there are hundreds of other scientists that denounce anthropogenic global warming as a fraud. I am no scientist, but at the very least believe a real debate should take place. It may not solve the issue altogether, but I have a sneaking suspicion that Gore isn’t totally honest with the public about climate change. So why don’t I believe Gore? From my research, temperature increases lead to increased carbon dioxide, not the other way around as he explains it. The poles aren’t melting into oceans; scientists have found that the Arctic ice cap has returned to near-normal levels and the Antarctic sheet is actually growing on three sides. Mars is warming, too, without the help of humans causing additional carbon dioxide to erupt into the atmosphere. The global warming activists’ plan to use biofuels has backfired, causing corn, wheat and soy prices to skyrocket and left-leaning government representatives elected by the people would rather the poor go without food than drill for oil in ANWR, off the coast, or build new nuclear facilities. Their solution is to use freely-available resources such as solar and wind, although an attempt to build windmills off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard was shot down by one of the state’s senators.

I believe global warming is an attempt to introduce more government into your lives. Recently, California discussed having each home built with a government-controlled thermostat. A Michigan representative recently called for a 50 cents per gallon tax on gasoline and, all the while, ethanol fuel is heavily subsidized by the government to make it’s price competitive to regular gasoline. Remember that photo of the polar bear clinging to a small, drifting iceberg? It was taken in the summer when Arctic ice melts. Remember the IPCC report whose data said we’re all doomed? Those numbers were revised after the initial release with substantial changes - but with little media coverage.

Speaking of the media, and this is my last point, there is an undeniable bias in the television news media for global warming. There was little coverage of the climate conference in Manhatten in early March except to ridicule it’s panel of scientists. Recently, new data from the Argos buoys suggested that the oceans were cooling, which is in direct conflict of a basic tenet of global warming. And with the record cold and snow of Winter 2008, why has the media not questioned global warming?

There are tax dollars either being used, or new taxes planned to be used, to control your lifestyle. The solution is lesser government and the quicker the world’s population realizes that this is all a tax hoax - whether through gas, carbon or other - the easier it will be to push big government back out of our lives. I urge you to contact your state, local and federal elected officials and urge them to vote against any climate change/global warming legislation.
