Professor Gore's Climate Change Lecture Warmly Received by Senate

Empirical evidence suggests that the main cause of warming and cooling derive from solar activity rather than from changes in the level of greenhouse gases. Why have there been cycles of warming and cooling for eons when it has not been that long since large-scale industrial/commercial releases of methane and carbon dioxide have taken place?

The Intergovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is pre-programmed to produce reports to support the hypotheses of warming due to man-made greenhouse gases. That organization ignored satellite data since that data showed no evidence of global warming. The 1995 report by that organization was released after substantial modifications were made to the report after it was approved by scientists. Those changed were made to make it look like there was human influence on climate change. The 2007 report the IPCC completely devalues climate effects from changes in solar activity. There is no scientist consensus that man is responsible for global warming, so why impose drastic measures and harsh economic penalties when the problem is hypothetical and not clearly substantiated by convincing evidence? Al Gore has done none of us a favor with his junk science presentations.

There is no such thing as consensus in science. We do not vote on scientific truths. It must be a proven scientific fact, a theory or a hypothesis to be tested. We don’t vote; we do reproducible experiments and research. The proponents of global warming base everything on their models, which when given 1960 data cannot predict today’s temperatures. They have created a phony money machine. Wise up Barry. ALGORE the high priest of this crazy religion is making millions and millions a year selling carbon offsets.

If your IQ was one point lower you would be a rock. If anyone is enjoying denial it is you and Mr Gore (I created the internet). Even Gore's own scientists that he drums out for not toeing the line on GW prove his lack of credibility. The fact that he says that the debate is over aligns him with the flat earth believers. Science always challenges and provokes the quest for truth. The fact that one volcano can disrupt the GW thinkers theory in one day proves they have a moron mentality when it comes to intelligence. Just think, one huge volcano puts out more CO in one day than all of the industrial revolution combined.
