Good morning, folks, and welcome to the Global Warming Week-in-Review.
Sunday, May 11th:
10ksnookers.blogspot.com provided some interesting commentary on carbon credits and the cap-and-trade system, saying that it’s just a government-sanctioned ration on goods and services?  How?  Both systems limit the total amount of greenhouse gas that can be emitted into the atmosphere, which results in a limit of how much of a good or service can be produced without going over that limit.  Remember the gas lines of the 1970’s?  If this keeps up, expect to see lines for more than …

In the most ridiculous and blatant attempt to change your lifestyle, ABC News is suggesting that we all cut back on our meat consumption by one-quarter. The problem? Livestock are just too darn bad for the environment. Cows are fed soy and corn and, pay attention, the fertilizer used to grow corn is manufacturered by a facility that uses fossil fuels to harvest and process the feed.

The Washington Post published an article on Wednesday that noted the real reason for skyrocketing food prices and soaring demand:  corn-based ethanol.  A farmer interviewed for the article claims that he’s receiving $5.50 per bushel of corn, which is about the double what he received two years ago.  He says that instead of loading up the corn harvest on a truck for export, he takes it down to an ethanol distillery that he can see from his property where it is turned into ethanol for vehicles.  In addition to the …

For the sheep of the world, this must have sounded like the last call to do something - anything - before the glaciers and ice caps melted, the hurricanes hit and and seas covered the continents. Fortunately for those of us smart enough to question Al Gore and his global warming crowd, the glaciers haven’t melted (nor will they), the ice caps …

Interesting and timely opinion piece from the Hawaii Reporter on the faked polar bear photos in the Arctic and the unjust beating Dr. Fred Singer took during the airing of his interview on ABC.

Fred Singer, a staunch denier of global warming, is made to look like a kook on ABC “news”. Not only is Singer in denial of man-made global warming, he also disagrees with the concept of a nuclear winter.

What no one talks about is the rapid ice growth in Antarctica and the rapid refreezing of ice in the Arctic. Put 2012 on your calendar for there will still be ice in the Arctic then. This is another example of the boy that called ‘wolf’.
