September 25, 2009
President Obama just made a melodramatic appeal at the United Nations for global measures to dramatically curb what he called “the climate threat,” current euphemism for what is more popularly known as Global Warming, the theory that man-made CO2 emissions from cars, coal plants and other man-made sources are causing the earth to warm to the point the polar icecaps are irreversibly melting and threatening to flood a quarter or more of the earth’s surface. There’s only one thing wrong with Mr. Obama’s dramatic scenario: it is scientifically utterly wrong. Since 2007 the polar icecaps have been growing not melting and the earth has been cooling, not warming.

If the fear of death from a fictitious Swine Flu were not enough, the scare stories on world media such as BBC or CNN, showing melting icebergs are dramatic enough to cause one sleepless nights. The Secretary General of the UN, Ban Ki-Moon even made a recent appeal while standing on an Arctic ice-flow, claiming that man-made CO2 emissions were causing
“100 billion tons” of polar ice to melt each year, so that in 30 years the Arctic would be “ice-free”. One organization, the WWF, claimed that the Arctic ice was melting so fast that in eighty years sea-levels would rise by 1.2 meters, creating “floods affecting a quarter of the world.” Wow! That’s scary. Goodbye Hamburg, New York, Amsterdam…
The publicity stunt of Ban Ki-Moon was carefully orchestrated. It was not said that his ship could only come within 700 miles of the North Pole owing to frozen ice. Nor that he made his stunt in the summer when Arctic ice always melts before refreezing beginning September.
The reality about Arctic ice is quite different. Although some 10 million square kilometres of sea-ice melts each summer, each September the Arctic starts to freeze again. The extent of the ice now is 500,000 sq km greater than it was this same time last year – which was, in turn, 500,000 sq km more than in September 2007, the lowest point recently recorded (see Cryosphere Today of the University of Illinois, http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosphere/ ).
By next April, after months of darkness, it will be back up to 14 million sq km or likely more. As British science writer Christopher Booker remarks, “even if all that sea-ice were to melt, this would no more raise sea-levels than a cube of ice melting in a gin and tonic increases the volume of liquid in the glass.”
Sunbeams from cucumbers?
The current global warming propaganda scare is being hyped by politicians and special interests such as Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street financial firms that stand to reap billions trading new carbon credit financial futures. They are making an all-out effort to scare the world into a deal at the December Copenhagen Global Warming summit, the successor to the
Kyoto agreement on CO2 emission reduction. It’s been estimated that the Global Warming bill supported by Barack Obama and his Wall Street patrons, passed by the House of Representatives but not by the more conservative US Senate, would cost US taxpayers some $10 trillion.
In the UK, where Prime Minister Gordon Brown is fully on the global warming bandwagon, the BBC, the Royal Society are proposing wild schemes for “climate engineering,” including putting up mirrors in space to keep out the sun’s rays, or lining the highways with artificial trees to suck CO2 out of the air, to be taken away and buried in holes in the ground. Perhaps it would provide make-work for a few thousand Britons unemployed by the ravages of the recent financial collapse, but it would do nothing else than waste taxpayer money already stretched to the limits in bank bailouts. The entire farce has been compared to satirist Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver who meets a fictional character trying to extract sunbeams from cucumbers.
A major new study published in the respected Journal of Geophysical Research of the American Geophysical Union, Influence of the Southern Oscillation on tropospheric temperature, by scientists Influence of the Southern Oscillation on tropospheric temperature
J. D. McLean, C. R. de Freitas of the School of Geography, Geology and Environmental Science, University of Auckland in New Zealand and R.M. Carter
(http://www.agu.org/pubs/crossref/2009/2008JD011637.shtml), confirms that over the past fifty years, since 1950, fully 81% of tropical climate change can be linked to the Pacific weather phenomenon known as El Nino. And the remaining 19% they linked to increased solar radiation. No man made emissions played a role.
El Ninos, termed by scientists El Nino Southern Oscillations or ENSOs, are believed by climatologists and astrophysicists to be related to eruptions in solar activity which occur periodically.
Dr. Theodor Landscheidt of Canada’s Schroeter Institute for Research in Cycles of Solar Activity, says ENSO is the “strongest source of natural variability in the global climate system. During the severe ENSO event 1982/1983, when the sea surface off Peru warmed by more than 7° C, it was discovered that there are strong links to weather in other regions as, for instance, floods in California and intensified drought in Africa.”
Landscheidt adds, “El Niño and La Niña are subjected to external forcing by the sun’s varying activity to such a degree that it explains nearly all of ENSO’s irregularities and makes long-range forecasts beyond the 1-year limit possible. This is no mere theory. My forecasts of the last two El Niños turned out correct and that of the last one was made more than two years ahead of the event…” (Solar Activity Controls El Niño and La Niña, in http://www.john-daly.com/sun-enso/sun-enso.htm.). Even James Hansen, one of the outspoken protagonists of the Global Warming idea admits, “The forcings that drive long-term climate change are not known with an accuracy sufficient to define future climate change…The natural forcing due to solar irradiance changes may play a larger role in long-term climate change than inferred from comparisons with general circulation models alone.”
El Ninos are linked to floods, droughts and other weather disturbances in many regions of the world. In the Atlantic Ocean, effects lag behind those in the Pacific by 12 to 18 months. They tend to occur every three to eight years. La Ninas are the associated cooling phase of the Pacific Ocean cycles.
According to the US National Oceans and Atmospheric Administration, in North America, El Niño creates warmer-than-average winters in the upper Midwest states and the Northeast. California and the southwestern US become significantly wetter, while the northern Gulf of Mexico states and northeast Mexico are wetter and cooler than average during the El Niño phase of the oscillation. In Asia and parts of Australia El Nino causes drier conditions, increasing bush fires.
This sounds remarkably like what the Global Warming scare chorus claims is the result of manmade CI2 emissions or as they now slyly term it, “climate change.”
Warmer 1000 years ago?
In Sweden a new study (, in published by Haakan Grudd of the University of Stockholm’s Department of Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology confirms that the Arctic today is not warmer than in previous historical periods centuries ago before coal power plants or automobiles. Grudd’s study concludes that “The late-twentieth century is not exceptionally warm in the new record: On decadal-to-centennial timescales, periods around a.d. 750, 1000, 1400, and 1750 were equally warm, or warmer. The 200-year long warm period centered on a.d. 1000 was significantly warmer than the late-twentieth century and is supported by other local and regional paleoclimate data.” (H. Grudd, Torneträsk tree-ring width and density ad 500–2004: a test of climatic sensitivity and a new 1500-year reconstruction of north Fennoscandian summers, Climate Dynamics, Volume 31, Numbers 7-8 / December, 2008, in
http://www.springerlink.com/content/8j71453650116753/?p=fcd6adbe04ff4cc29b7131b5184282eb&pi=0.) Put simply, the earth was warmer one thousand years ago than today. And there were no records of SUVs or coal plants belching CO2 into the atmosphere back then.
The only problem with these serious scientific studies is that mainstream media entirely ignores them, preferring dramatic scare story scenarios such as Barack Obama presented in his UN speech or the UN’s Ban Ki-Moon in his staged Arctic ice drama.
Strangely enough, none of the Global Warming proponents that I am aware of have tried to correlate ENSO activity with global temperature changes. Should we instead be proposing to outlaw El Ninos or forbid solar eruptions? It makes as much scientific sense as banning or capping CO2 emissions. Global Warming as a new religion is one thing, but we should be clear that the high priests are the same Gods of Money who brought us Peak Oil religion a few years ago and the current trillion dollar financial meltdown known as asset securitization. The reality is that Global Warming like Peak Oil and other scares are but another attempt by powerful vested interests to convince the world to sacrifice that they remain in control of the events of this planet. It’s a thinly veiled attempt to misuse climate to argue for a new Malthusian reduction of living standards for the majority of the world while a tiny elite gains more power.

Fill a glass as full as you can get it with ice, then add water to the brim. Let the ice melt. The water level goes DOWN. Ice expands, displacing the liquid water. As it melts and becomes liquid, it gets denser. Even if the polar ice caps were to melt completely, New York, etc., would not be in danger of flooding. This is “scientific scare-mongering”. Don’t buy the lie.

Dear friends:
I just have to correct what has become a popular mistake regarding sea level rise. The model suggesting that there would not be a net increase in water level if the ice caps melted holds true for the Arctic, because there is no land beneath the Arctic ice. It is essentially a huge ice cube floating on the Arctic Sea.
However, ice forming over land, like Greenland, or the Antarctic, or the many mountain glaciers, is another matter altogether. In these instances, there is a downward weight caused by the mass of ice that is only slowly released by the melting of that ice. When icecaps melt over these surfaces, there is a net increase in water relative to the land surface (perhaps as much as 200 feet). How can we confirm this?
The geologic record has evidence of what we know as in lap-off lap or transgressive-regressive sequences of marine sedimentary rock. An example is the Atlantic -Gulf Coastal Plain, where we find rocks in the subsurface that were originally beach sands near by Philadelphia, Richmond, Atlanta, Memphis, San Antonio. We also know that as recently as 10,000 years ago, the Atlantic Ocean was approximately 50 miles east of Atlantic City. Finally, archaeologists have discovered a number of ancient cities that were covered over by rising water.
The whole issue of sea level rise and climate change is a red herring. Looking at the historic cycles, sea level has risen and fallen. and climate has changed. If humanity is so smart, then it will adapt to these changes.

http://911essentials.com says:
Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) is a theory (hypothesis). It is an unproven theory. What you do with theories is put them to the test with scientific observations. Let’s see what data points we now have:
1) Average annual temperatures have not surpassed 1998 (NOAA)
(University of Alabama)
2) Average annual temperatures are now trending downward since 1998
(NOAA) (University of Alabama)
3) Ocean temperatures have not risen since 2000 when the 3000 Argo buoys
were launched. The buoys even show a slight decrease in ocean temperatures
4) The Arctic ice froze to February levels by December 07, there are 1mm
more sq km than before (previous was 13mm sq km)
5) The Arctic ice is 20cm thicker than “normal” (whatever that is)
6) All polar bear pods are stable or growing (NOAA/PBS)
7) Mount Kilimanjaro is not melting because of global warming, rather
The Antarctic is not “melting”, it is growing in most places, the
“sublimation”
sloughing off at the edges is normal as the ice mass grows
9) The majority of the Antarctic is 8 degrees below “normal” (again,
whatever that is)
10) The coveted .7 degree rise in temperatures over the last 100 years
has been wiped out with last years below “normal” temperatures (NOAA
coolest winter since 2001)
11) Al Gore’s film was just deemed “propaganda” in a court of law in the
UK as many points could not be substantiated by scientists
12) It was also just reveled that some of the footage in Als film was
CGI. The ice shelf collapse was from the movie The Day After Tomorrow (ABC)
13) One of the scientists that originally thought that CO2 preceded the
warming has now found with new data that the CO2 rise follows the
warming (Dr David Evans)
14) August 2008 was the first time since 1913 there were no sun spots.
15) The Medieval Warm Period was warmer than the 20th century (no SUVs)
16) Many scientists are now predicting 30 years of cooling.
17) The greenhouse effect is real, our small contribution to it cannot
even be measured
18) Several publications, including those that are warmist have recently
written that the natural cycles of the earth may mask AGW. Give me a break.

The problem with your example is that the ice floating in a drink is already in the water. The ice in the arctic isn’t floating around the ocean, it’s weight is not displacing water it is above ground. your example should be hold an ice cube above the glass and have it melt into the glass. Which way does the water level go. Thats why when the ice melts its impact will raise ocean levels.

Although 98% of Antarctica is ice, there is land underneath the ice cover, unlike the Arctic where the ice floats on top of the ocean.
A layer of ice up to two miles thick covers a continent as big as the United States and Mexico combined.

What about the hydrological cycle? If all the water in the air were suddenly released as rain, THEN the world’s water levels would rise. Hmmm, it seems that some of the chemtrails they are spraying are capable of causing drought. Drying the air? Is this too big a deal for anyone to really get their mind around it?

Unlike the Arctic ice layer which floats, Antarctica’s (up to 2 mile thick) ice layer sits ON a land mass which is larger than the USA and Mexico combined.

September 25th, 2009 at 9:38 am
actually if the antarctic ice and greenland ice melted all at once, it would send sea level rising more like 100 meters, not 1.5 meters. NASA seems to think Greenland’s icecap is ablating, losing more than it’s gaining by precipitation, but that sure as heck doesn’t mean the whole thing is melting, or that the marginal melt is due to man-made factors. the science is all whacky in the man-made global warming camp, it has to ignore the data established from multiple ice cores samples several km in length from greenland and corrobarating data from vostok that show the climate has fluctuated much more wildly in the past than it has now.
the other bit that is way off is that if greenland gives up a lot of fresh water, this less dense water sits on top of the cold dark north atlantic in pools, and the warm gulf stream waters hit it and sink, being more dense, so the gulf stream conveyor belt is radically shortened or halted completely. this leads to an ice age in europe and north america. which is exactly what the CIA was predicting back in the 1970s. they’re not as fumbling as they try to appear a lot of times.

Interesting stuff on the History channel lately regarding this time, scientifically and spiritually. If you have money in the stock market, get OUT! It’s MAJORLY being manipulated by the ‘chosen’ ones (by satan that is). I work in finance and know what they’ve been doing for some time now. It’s clear as day. They want to take everyone’s money so FIRST they will make the stock market look like it’s going UP so people want to ‘regain’ their investments…and a lot of people will invest…as planned. THEN they will crash the market and basically steal from those who thought people are basically good (Godly), being burned in the process. That’s when the evil ones swoop in (like Fiona and all such types…but I think Fiona is a peon just talking tough and will get his in the end…well actually probably FIRST) and try to chip the rest of us, etc….

chemtrails, haarp are just as neglible in effect on climate as human carbon dioxide emissions. the sun fluctuates in energy output. spraying the earth with radioisotopes of barium and jamming the magnetic field are stupid ideas, but the sun will shine however it likes when it likes.
September 25th, 2009 at 10:32 am
Again, global warming is caused by the SUN, not human activities.
So reducing industrial output – won’t change whether or not the Earth warms or cools. It is SUN DRIVEN.
Now, IT IS TRUE however, if the ice caps melt, sea level would rise. Not the arctic ice, but the ice that is on LAND. That isn’t in the oceans right now, thus it WOULDN’T be like an icicle floating in water.
So if the SUN causes the Iceland and Antarctica to melt, yes you would see a couple hundred foot rise in the sea levels. If just iceland, 20-30 feet. (antarctica is the BIG one you don’t want melting).
But again, it’s NOT humans causing global warming. It’s the SUN.
Peak oil is true. Sort of. There’s still oil, lots of it, BUT, our ability to get at it, is not.
Therefore there IS in a sense peak oil, since 70+ percent of all the oil in the world is under the oceans. We can get to some of it, more of it every few years as more technology is created, but overall we can’t get to it all. We very well might use so much, that what we can pump from land, or right off the coast won’t be enough to satisfy us. Thus peak oil, in that sense, is VERY REAL.
But, who knows how much oil is being hidden off the market by the oil countries. I’ve even heard there’s more than in Saudi Arabia, off the coast of Alaska. Now that part is speculation, but it wouldn’t surprise me.
Also, there are signs that some of the wells are refilling themselves. Hard to say how much they’ll refill, whether it will be a constant process, or a 1 or 2 time thing before it goes completely dry. But even if it does constantly refill, again, how fast does it?
Therefore if we need to wait 50 years for it to fill 30 percent back up, then we will have problems with PEAK OIL.
So while this guy claims alot of things, he too, is wrong.
But I wouldn’t put it past our gov’t to use these ideas as means of control, or treating them as bargaining chips in international affairs.

Assessment Report, climate scientist with the Cooperative Institute for Research in
Environmental Sciences Division of Cryospheric and Polar Processes at the University of
Colorado.
“Without question, much more progress is necessary regarding our current
understanding of climate and our abilities to model it.”
“Only after we identify these factors and determine how they affect one another, can
we begin to produce accurate models. And only then should we rely on those models
to shape policy.”
All quotes are from highly credible insiders and experts who know more than you (and me for that matter)

ren I suggest you go to John Stossels report in 2002 in June you can purchase the video for $12.50so call Abc and they will send you a copy how do you explain the ice age 33million years ago, it is cylical the earth is approximatly 165million years old it was exactly like Mars was in the beginning of time Oygen and Carbon Dioxide they 65 million years ago the palentologists discovered the terradatliles, Wooley Mammouths, Dinasauer and Carnivous Animals on earth, then came the stone age where the neardethol had to rub sticks and stone together to build fires to cook the meat from the animals they shot and used the Animal Fur to keep warm in the Winter.They died from the UVA, UVB rays from the son sice you know world history so well I will skip the roman Empire thruoght the 21st century, There was a huge flood on earth that is how all the continents where formed and the water vapor formed the ozone Layer so when issace newton was raise he discovered the prism and Gallio was a mathmatician,and Philosopher both where way aheard of the times,
Then why do they call it Greenland ? the vikings used to grow crops and corn there, so 53 scientist went up there 10 tears ago and drilled down over a thousand feet and pulled up frozen green grass, then there was a black plague in Europe around the 17th century people where eating Rats in the sewar and Marie Antoneete said let them eat cake she was sent to the Gulittien and her head was chopped off! My son work with NaSa Obama fored 2 people at Nasa the one that say G\lobal warming is a lie, so from a satellitte chorophyll is actually red and water is green so the hole in the ozone get repaied on a daily basis or we would die from the UVA, UVB rays from the sun it is a huge magnit in the sky so sometimes you see the big Dipper and sometimes you do not they all rotate to and from the sun every 100 years get educated on World History , American history Asto Physics, Meterology, Climatology, Oceanography, Archeologythat will explain it all to brainwashed people

your dates are off, but eric the red found a land that was green in the year 983. he didn’t call it greenland, he called it gruntland, like “ground-land”, and then the icelanders made up this story he called it greenland to attract colonists, which was a big laugh back in the middle ages, so the story got written down. the earth is older than you wrote, the precession of the equinox takes a lot longer than you say, etc. your heart does seem to be in the right place, however.

Global warming is a direct result of the BS coming out of the members of the G20 mouths and any agency/person out to proffit off of the sheeple for believing their crap. That is far worse the cow farts or carbon.
Why don’t all the G20 family give every bit of their own personal money to improve global technology so they can put their money where their mouths are. But which end are they talking from?

Dear Scott,
There is no such thing as Global warming we are going into a cooling period, my son went to Mit with 4 phds Astro Pyshics, Meterology, Climotology, Oceanography,and Archeology, so know you American and World History before you make stupid comment like yours, how do you explain the Ice Age 33million years ago?every 100 years we rotate to and from the sun so the chore of the earth heats up ,and cools down ever since earth began.
September 25th, 2009 at 11:49 am
Fiona,
I am not attacking you so please simply answer my questions and do not get defensive.
First of all, this was not written by this site, this is clearly cited as a work by a scientific study from multiple sources and all of the documents cited are referenced according to collegiate standards and you can simply click the links to read the studies.
Are you a geologist or a meteorologist? I would presume not. I however double majored in Geology and meteorology at Western Washington University1998, going on to get my Masters in Geology in 2000. Not to put this arrogantly, but I believe I would be a far better source of knowledge and carry more credibility than you would. The very text that the leftists use to slander the Co2 emissions from man made sources also says that livestock produces more than all of humanity. There are many factors to take into consideration when talking about the possible climate change. However it is truly impossible to make the claim that the earth is either getting warmer or cooler because there are so many different variables. For something to be proven scientifically you have to be able to control the variables that could affect the out come of the experiment. However we can no more control solar flares, eruptions, underwater volcanoes that could be heating sections of the ocean (ever so slightly) etc. all of these things prevent anyone from being able to make a scientific case for the effects that man made Co2 is having on the environment.
That said even the new cap and trade bill that will make a few people very very rich at its best estimates will only influence the world climate by 0.15 degrees over the next ten years… for 10 trillion dollars… This is nothing more than a few shills attempting to get very wealthy.
To all of the other people who post here, I beg of you. Do not do as they do, educate people rather than demonizing them. You are you using the very Marxist principles that they are when you practice critical theory against them. (watch the 3 part series on youtube.com about “history of political correctness”) rather than attack the poster which is a argumentative fallacy, gently deconstruct their argument so they may learn from it and hopefully see what is actually happening.
-Bob

Yesterday I read an artice that some Envirnomental Wacko wrote saying that Global Warming was making the glaciers in Greenland melt, cooling the Gulf Straem thus making Europe cooler. Guess it made the US cooler this summer too. Lets all PRAY we don’t freeze this winter. The EnvoNazis will not be happy untill Chicago and Buffalo are under a mile and a half of ice like they supposedly were 100,000 years ago!

greenland glaciers are melting AT THE EDGES (which is where melting always happens uness you get a volcano under the ice or something) faster than they were observed to melt before. this is sending fresh water into the north atlantic. enough fresh water in the north atlantic and the gulf stream will shut down. the reason the glaciers are melting faster at the edges is not known. the amount of fresh water needed to shut down the gulf stream is not known. there is zero danger that the greenland icecaps becomes “unstuck” and slides into the ocean all at once, it doesn’t roll that way.

This comes from my whatsupwiththat climate Blog;
In response to President Obama’s speech at the UN on Climate Change;
Cassandra King (14:05:49) :
Its a nice speech isnt it? But there are a few incorrect assertions in the presidents speech, he makes the basic error of confusing actual reality with a constructed artificial reality, its the departure from reality which is a little disturbing, more so when you consider this isnt me or you engaging in a flight from reality like buying a lotto ticket, it is the most powerful man in the world under the illusion that the words he speaks are true.
There is no sea level rise to speak of, there are no refugees fleeing some kind of anthropogenic global warming catastrophe because there are no effects from global warming.
There is no increase in violent storms/typhoons/hurricanes, the polar ice caps are stable, there is no tipping point on the horizon, no death spiral or irreversible catastrophe looming, there is no global warming because the planet is cooling and its as simple as that.
Obamas speech claims to present actual events whereas in fact he was talking about events yet to happen based soley on computer models of what may happen if the computer models are correct.
In effect the president is lying to us all, the leader of the western world telling lies before the UN.
What have we as a civilisation come to when the most powerful man in the world with instant access to the finest scientists and scientific institutions the planet has to offer and he cannot tell actual reality from a computer model prediction, has he not been told that the events in his speech have not actually happened yet and there is no real evidence they ever will happen?
The president talks about “carbon pollution” yet atmospheric CO2 is the key to life, a gas essential to all life on earth isnt a pollutant in any sense, when you cut to the chase its that simple, CO2 is life and it means life, it is no more a pollutant than O2.
I was left with the feeling that unless reality comes a knockin on the Whitehouse door soon then we are all screwed.

this will mean more precipitation and a melting of the ice caps.

I don’t understand why all the hype in global warming ? I’m 45 yrs old and was taught the great state of southern il. was formed by glaciers . I live on the flat land 40 mi. north of the garden of the gods . If no humans were here when they were formed why did the ice melt to begin with . Maybe when the dust settled from the astroid and the sun started to shine again the world was destined to burn to ashes .

Here’s the thing. If all of the ice in the caps were to melt, it wouldn’t have a noticeable effect upon most people, especially those inland. It would cause the ocean levels to rise in the coastal regions, where many, many people live…especially those in third world, or developing nations. That would have a destabilizing effect upon all of us, including those who are safely inland, due to displacement and discord. I am not a fan of carbon credits, or any of the other methods that are used by some to make these changes, but come on. Really. Could you imagine what would occur if global coastal regions would intrude upon established human populations? I’m, for one, glad that they have finally started to use the weather modification programs to cool the planet, a bit. I have nothing against people from third world and developing nations. In fact, I’d love to find a way to raise their standards of living beyond the point that they are at, without decreasing our own standards of living, without raising the ocean levels for those coastal regions. Don’t forget that ice contains more air molecules, than water does. When it melts, that air is liberated into the atmosphere, while the water collects below. One more thing. Who, out there, believes that oil, gas, and nuclear fission are the only, and most advanced, sources of energy production? Unless you own shares of stock, in those oil, gas, and nuclear fission related companies. then you should certainly embrace the suppressed energy generation methods.

look again, Brian. The majority of the population all over the world lives right next to the coasts, third, second and first worlds. Greenland ice contains oxygen, true, didn’t understand your point. The caps are not going to disappear due to ablation any time soon. The ice core records show much higher temps previous and the things never melted all the way, they just lost a bit of mass.

HAARP, Weather Modification projects. How could they NOT be changing the weather? Our own military has stated it will “OWN the weather”. That doesn’t sound like they are worried about global warming or freezing. They sound like they are confidently in the process of manipulating weather.
Sorry, Al Gore, I used to believe you before I woke up.
I don’t doubt the science of natural swings in temperature and weather as described in the article above. However, I believe the military when it boasts it will be “owning the weather” in the near future.
I believe they already manipulate hurricanes, droughts and more. So, we do have natural changes in long term weather interfaced with current manipulation of weather due to terraforming the planet by UN. The public is told another whopper, we must blame it all on carbon emissions. Everyone must go on a carbon “diet” and walk in a very straight line monitored by the TOTALLY BELIEVABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY UN singing in harmony with our own
