    NEW DELHI — As countries around the world prepare to flex their negotiating muscles at next month’s climate-change summit in Copenhagen, India has begun to question the Western model of computing global warming statistics.

    Environment Minister Jairam Ramesh released a report last week that says there is no conclusive evidence that climate change has caused the melting of the Himalayan glaciers. The report says that not all of the glaciers are receding at alarming rates and that a few are even advancing.

    The report, an analysis of data from the past four decades, is part of India’s efforts to produce a body of indigenous research assessments on the subject.

    “So far, we have been depending on research conducted by the West on what is happening to our glaciers and environment,” he said after releasing the report, which was prepared by a former scientist with the Geological Survey of India and included a disclaimer that it did not necessarily reflect the government’s view.

      I wonder how long it will take for definitive proof to come out either way. It took 40 some years for JFK’s assassination to be proven a conspiracy. It happened 46 years ago today.

      Even though JFK was a conspiracy to any one with half a brain, they still spew crap all over the cable documentaries about Oswald acting alone and you know there are plenty of sheeple swallowing it up. The TV is pure mind control.

      Mark this well, someday we might be invaded by a million red chinese and Roto Reuters will be telling the rest of the world that it’s blue skies and sunny. It’s not news, it’s pure horse s---.

      Gary Reply:

      Sorry, CO, I’d rather be covered in horse s--- than Reuters news. You’re being too nice. Reuters is propaganda, plain and simple. It’s not “wrong” or “naive.” It’s cold and calculative. It’s a group of establishment outlets that tow the line, in lock step with established power. Reuters “news” articles come from deluded souls working for new world entities. It’s much more than simple horse s---, though I appreciate your disgust. Really, horse s--- is one of the least nasty of the manures. If we must stick to the s--- comparative, try human s---. It’s by far the nastiest.

      milobogstrom Reply:

      Starina,

      NASA has been given over to studying climate now, I guess because they lost all that nifty 60s technology for going to the moon and can’t do it anymore (Saturn V blueprints, radiation shielding, etc etc). If you go to NASA’s webpage and try to learn exactly how they calculated that the Greenland icecap is losing mass, it’s not there. You get the runaround. They talk about satellite altitude telemetry combined with remote gravity detection combined with some other big words stuck in a computer blender and voila! RISING SEAS!

      Where are these rising seas?

      StarinaNovak Reply:

      There are no rising seas.

      They are using HAARP to affect the weather, and Russians can use Woodpecker to create counter measures. Chinese had to develop something, India too.

      So, there is weather-warfare above.

      bogomilstrom Reply:

      russian woodpecker has been turned off for years, they even blew up one of the bases in riga, latvia. you might be right about weather warfare though, we had 2 public assertions by moscow and beijing recently.

    5. StarinaNovak Says:

      I read emails those quack-scientist were exchanging. They could not produce data which will support their theory.

      So, they picked up data form 1032-1035 when large volcanic explosion in China spewed out 50 cubic kilometers of dust into atmosphere and created mini ice age.

      When they used data from 1000 BC to modern time, they found out there is no global warming.

      HOAX to make you pay more taxes.

      The people who released those e-mails exposing the fruad should get the nobel peace prize and the medal of honor.

      balgorg Reply:

      Which email states that, there are so many to read, could you post the numbers ?

      StarinaNovak Reply:

      You have to read quite a lot of them.

      One thing is always the same, they can not find real data so they are looking for “possibilities”, how to “pack” data, so that is the reason why they start with mini ice age in 1032-1036 AD.

      Read, and don’t be lazy.

      I thought Red China and India would benifit from Cap and Trade since Western production will be too costly and developing countries would be exempt and would get money from the west to clean up.

      Any Indians out there that are willing to wiegh in on a conspiracy theory I read that Red China is financing diverse groups in India in their attempt to break India up into little independent states like it was before?

      milobogstrom Reply:

      not an indian here, but regarding china and india benefitting by increased transmigrations of US industry abroad: 2 problems: US has no industry left to export and if they did, it would be a drop in the bucket compared to native Chinese development. Not enough to matter.

      On India, I have read the same sort of thing by Indian nationalists, that China will sneak attack them. I have seen no evidence whatsoever. You have to remember a few things: India and Pakistan and China are nuclear powers, and ALL THREE have a slice of Kashmir, which is disputed. Pakistan recognizes China’s claim to Aksai Chin, India does not. India and Pakistan do not recognize one another’s claim to Kashmir. Then there’s the Punjab and Sikhs in India, and there’s Pashtunistan in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Pashtun=Pakhtun, same as Pashto. The only power that seems to be involved in divide and conquer adventures is the USA: in Uighurstan in China, throughout Afghanistan, in Pakistan and in Iran. I guess the idea is to try to drive a dagger of instability between China and Russia. Right now the US is sponsoring a new civil war in Pakistan.

      Mac-101 Reply:

      The instability in Afghanistan and Pakistan do not require the US to add to it. I realy do not see any benifit to the US in destabilizing Pakistan. Especially when one considers that they have at least 4 diesel submarines that have extended tanks that can reach the US , AND they are nucear weapons capable! Isn’t it amusing that the Pakistani do not have a trouble with the G-dless commies having part of the Kasmir. That’s because the Peoples Army don’t mess around. They love decapitating Muslims!

      StarinaNovak Reply:

      US will destabilize Pakistan, and will come to “secure” nuclear arsenal.

      That will make whole oil route to the shore.

      Mac-101 Reply:

      The key to this DRAMA is, I believe, that there is enough old Soviet nukes floating around. Especially since the Plubonium(SP) 210 that poisened the Russian disodent Muslim revert in London a few years ago. This is the trigger that needs updated/refressed every couple of years to keep nukes reliable. Iwould be willing to bet they are prepoed in US and Israel.

      bogomilstrom Reply:

      I think old zbigniew in his book outlines why partitioning pakistan makes some sort of sense for us policy. on oil routes, it might not be so much connecting afghanistan to the ocean via pakistan, but connecting/blocking iran from china. just a thought. oh, and it was polonium isotope 210. although i doubt the russians did it, looks more like the US to me, a false flag.

      bogomilstrom Reply:

      PS India has a large number of G_dless Communists too.

      Mac-101 Reply:

      Thanks for the correction. I believe he probably poisened himself by transporting it to a nuke for a new trigger. THEN blame the Russians, like their not blodthursty enough!

      I am sure India has got it right, because as a people, they are still a people of principles and not of hype. This is also why they are not in with the Global Elite, that depend upon people like Al Gore for sensationalism, false advertisements and all the hype markets that are now ripping America apart.

      Since several of Ya mentioned AL Gore, Id like to saay the following:

      I would like the word to get out that Big Al has millions of dollars worth of Occiental Oil stock he got from his daddy, who was a Senator also, and a business partner of Armand Hammer, the dirty trans National American Business man who was the maSS MURDERER Joe Stalin’s main American conduit for business in the US.

      In addition his daughter married Jacob Schiff’s grandson. His grandaddy financed the Japaneese and was a major contributer for Japan’s Sino-Russian War’s victory. He also financed Lenin and Trotsky in the Bolshevic Revolution. In addition, he was a major player in establishing the Federal Reserve Banks.

    17. dWaRf mApLe Says:

      http://911essentials.com says global warming is a hoax.

      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
      “sublimation”
      8) The Antarctic is not “melting”, it is growing in most places, the
      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.

      * Plants need less water
      * More food per acre
      * More robust habitats and ecosystems

      CO2 is Earth’s greatest airborne fertilizer. Without it – No Life On Earth!

      Global warming or global governance?
      - -Interviews of climate scientists and biologists from numerous sources who explain, step by step, why Al Gore and the global warming alarmists are incorrect. In some cases, blatantly so. It also provides evidence that the global warming agenda is being funded with tens of billions of dollars as a mechanism to create global governance. Hear from congressmen, experts and even well-known news broadcasters how global governance puts global institutions that are not accountable to the American people in control of every aspect of our economy. The U.S. government is very close to making this a reality.- -

      When I read your comments It stroke me like a lightning: Human kind have no chance in hell to survive and NEVER had one.

      The question is just when everything will end. I guess around 2100-2200 when we successfully terminated most of the life on earth and the populations is around 12 billion.
