Robert Felix has written a book titled, "Not By Fire, But by Ice". He proposed that The Global Warming was a run up to the new ice age that is coming down, as part of the natural cycle of our planet.

One can only imagine the ridicule that Robert Felix has endured over the years from the Global Warming crowd.

Now PRAVDA, the Russian newspaper has printed a story about a group of Russian Climatologists have determined that we are about to enter another "Ice Age".

Has anybody informed A.G. and the Nobel people about this???

That's why the preferred phrase now is "climate change". No matter what happens, they can say they saw it comin'. wink

Read the article earlier. If they thought global warming was a bad, just wait for global cooling. I've been buying wool. . ..

With global warming we could farm further north. Tough to farm anything on a glacier.

Maybe staying in Louisiana ain't such a bad idea except for all those damned Yankee carpet-baggers movin down here.

We could put up signs along the interstate saying "Mexico that-a-way --------->".

It was well above freezing today in Edmonton.
It hardly seems like the start of a new ice age.

No single study proves anything. Where are the hundreds of studies showing we are getting cooler, like there are to show we are getting warmer? Hard to see them existing when we are obviously getting warmer.
And as usual the fact the temperature is increasing at exactly the same rate as the global warming gases is just a coincidence?

Actually, we have been in a cooling pattern since 97 or 98. Additionally, there is lots of data to show how the CO2 levels aren't correlated with global mean temperature.

But we still don't have enough data. 100 to 150 years of data for a planet that's 6,000,000,000 years old is noise.

I hold a lot of suspicion for folks who have a financial interest in the prevailing opinion...

Yes. Isn't it interesting that we don;t hear much about "global" "warming" now, it's been changed to "global" "climate change". Of course, we need no reminder that America is the cause of whichever "change" is occurring. Of course.

AND..... we need no reminder that some very smart people have decided that we humans have not only "caused" the "change", but we have the power "fix" it.

Forget climate change, we need to stop continental drift.

Nope, it is simply misinformation. Seems anyone can say anything these days and it gets published as fact, regardless of reality.

Arrogance...
