The next time a global warming activist vehemently denies there ever being a scientific consensus on global cooling, just point them to an article from the New York Times dated January 30, 1961.  The article, entitled SCIENTISTS AGREE WORLD IS COLDER; But Climate Experts Meeting Here Fail to Agree on Reasons for Change, reported on a unanimous agreement among scientists on several continents that the world was, indeed, getting cooler.  Humans were not blamed for climate change in the article, although greenhouse gas emissions were mentioned but it was determined …

Senators Barack Obama and John McCain both support a cap-and-trade system here in the U.S. and say they will implement such a market-based system when elected.  The Messiah, ummm, The One wants to lower emissions 90% below 1990 levels by 2050 and John McCain wishes to lower emissions to 60% of 1990 levels by the same year.  Neither one get this, though:  global warming is not of anthropogenic origins.  Cooler global temperatures combined with increasing carbon emissions does not compute.

Back on June 27th, the news media predicted a greater than 50% chance that the Arctic would be completely ice free this summer.  Now that summer is effectively over for the Arctic and cooler temperatures are prevailing, let’s take a moment to see what really happened this summer.  NewsBusters wraps this up nicely, reporting that 1.74 million square miles of ice cover still exists in the Arctic, which makes the scientific predictions off by precisely 1.74 million square miles.  Close, but not close enough!

Alan Caruba provides his insight into the real reason for climate change:  the sun.  With extinctions being the norm rather than the exception, Caruba explores the three most recent solar minimums and the outcomes of each - a cooler Earth.  Even from 1645-1715, the Maunder Minimum was shown to correspond to cooler average temperatures on the planet.  With the sun going through an extremely spotless phase, and temperatures still showing no net gain since 1998, our planet may well be on to cooler temperatures for years to come.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac, established in 1792, points to global cooling rather than global warming, and says the sun has a lot to do with climate.  In the near-term, the Almanac predicts that most of the United States will have a cooler-than-normal winter and an active hurricane season in 2009.  Will the tried-and-true complex calculations of the Old Farmer’s Almanac prove to be a better predictor of climate than computer models that forecast global warming based on anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions?  Only time will tell.

China recent experienced the coldest winter in 100 years. Arctic ice refuses to melt, even though it has been predicted by scientists. Alaska is on track for the Cookedt summer since 1930. And the sunspots won’t return, leading to a cooler planet.

Global warming alarmists are quick to dismiss claims published in Time Magazine in the 1970’s that the world is getting cooler and headed for an ice age. What they don’t want you to know is that this wasn’t the first false alarm. The battle of global warming versus global cooling has been going on for decades, with scientists always thinking they have the right answer. Turns out they’re always wrong.

Natural cycles in ocean currents, not anthropogenic carbon emissions, have pushed the planet slightly cooler since 1998 when an El Nino-induced heat wave covered the planet.  The latest research indicates that this cooling trend could last a total of 20 years before natural forces reverse it.

The Canadian agency that records radio flux from the sun has observed a new record low in the observed data.  Get ready for a cooler-than-normal summer for you folks in the northern hemisphere.
