After his January 2005 claims that global warming is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people, Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) again defended his claim during a debate Tuesday night when he declared the following:
I think I was right on that, and I do believe — first off, let’s keep in mind, though, what the issue is. It’s not whether or not we’re going into a global warming period. We were. We’re not now.
You know, God’s still up there. We’re now going through a cooling spell. And the whole …

Now this is only a regional effect experienced in one particular month, so I can’t say this means global warming is over. However, if Ireland had experienced the warmest September in 14 years, I’m sure global warming activists everywhere would be using it as definitive proof that the world is warming. Anyway, the temperature across the country never rose above 20 degrees anywhere - which is a first in 30 years. Average monthly air temperatures were about a half-degree below normal.

Why am I so confident that global warming is a myth? Once you read this article on determining credibility of global warming, you’ll understand. Surely something as important and life-changing as climate change would be up for debate, right? Not according to Al Gore who once said that the debate is over.

Dan Sharp, a spokesperson for the Big Stone II power plant planned in South Dakota called Al Gore’s recent remarks encouraging today’s youth to begin civil disobedience “irresponsible.”  He goes on to say that Gore’s proposal bypasses the structured process of public debate and government review.  Even an opponent of the power plant said that civil disobedience was not necessary at this point.

Canadian environmentalist David Suzuki is attacking those critical of a Canadian carbon tax for, get this, attacking the carbon tax. In a weird world where it’s acceptable to criticize others in a manner that makes you no better than them, Suzuki says opponents of the carbon tax are stifling discussion around methods to help the environment. I don’t know about Canada, but here in the United States we call that a debate. And it’s not for the weak-at-heart. Maybe Suzuki needs to learn a childhood lesson …

I recently read an article over at the Duke Chronicle that discussed the link between global warming and hurricanes and, more importantly, the inability to link global warming and hurricanes.  The article says that Hurricane Ike reignited the debate of whether or not a link exists between hurricanes and climate change.  Having done my own study on the connection between tropical systems and temperature, I can tell you that I didn’t see any connection.  Activists, however, see things differently.  Al Gore recently tried to link the two, citing higher temperatures …

Looks like the energy debate could be coming up soon on Capitol Hill as Pelosi and her gang of good-for-nothings are back in session.  The energy bills that could be up for vote include the Democrats plan, the GOP plan and the Gang of 10 plan, with the two formers expected to include increased taxes and pork spending.  An energy freedom rally is being planned for October 1st in our nation’s capital by Senator Jim DeMint and Representatives Jeb Hensarling and John Shadegg.

In an upcoming edition of Science Magazine, the debate over which was first - a spike in carbon dioxide or a spike in temperatures - is examined.  Ocean currents are also studied to see how they can be predictors of climate change.  Historical looks at Greenland temperature increases are also included in the article, which show that increases in temperature were preceded by increases in carbon dioxide two to four thousand years in the past.  So does this mean we have another couple of thousand years to wait before global …
