global warming debate

It took Al Gore a few days but he eventually blamed cyclone Nargis on global wamring. Cyclone Nargis was a strong tropical cyclone that caused the deadliest natural disaster in the recorded history of Burma (aka Myanmar). The cyclone made landfall in the country on May 2, 2008, causing catastrophic destruction and at least 80,000 fatalities. Global warming? Not so fast Al!
We’re into the MANIA time on global warming so it seems.
Global warming is causing more hurricanes, more intense tornadoes, and CAT 5 cyclones- or so the story goes. But the truth is, as I’ve said before, while the carbon footprint might be larger, there are things out there in the universe that are far more capable of global warming- BIG TIME!
Ah, but back to the earth facts! What about the Greenland Ice Sheet then?
A new model of Atlantic hurricane activity for the last two decades of this century projects fewer hurricanes overall, but a slight increase in intensity for hurricanes that do occur. Hurricanes are also projected to have more intense rainfall, on average, in the future. The findings are reported in a study by scientists at NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton, N.J., scheduled to be published online on May 18 in Nature Geoscience.
Tropical Atlantic sea surface temperatures have increased over the past century and several studies have reported strong correlations between increasing tropical Atlantic sea surface temperatures and measures of hurricane activity since at least 1950. This new study suggests that in the Atlantic basin, global warming from increasing greenhouse gases will have little impact, or perhaps cause some decrease, in tropical storm and hurricane numbers.
In fact, over the past year, anecdotal evidence for a cooling planet has exploded. China has its coldest winter in 100 years. Baghdad sees its first snow in all recorded history. North America has the most snowcover in 50 years, with places like Wisconsin the highest since record-keeping began. Record levels of Antarctic sea ice, record cold in Minnesota, Texas, Florida, Mexico, Australia, Iran, Greece, South Africa, Greenland, Argentina, Chile….etc.
What we need is more like a global warning!
John McCain admitted when battling in the New Hampshire priamry that he knew little about economics. Well, with his latest global warming rants, we now know that he doesn’t know much about global warming or cooling either. McCain badly needs to educate himself on the debate currently raging over the climate. The left wing of the party has many things going for it in this election cycle, and McCain doesn’t need to join them in the global warming “lack of knowledge”.
What’ll happen if the Pacific Decadal Oscillation turns out to be a fact, which I believe it will?
Solar system to earth! Universe to earth. Wake up!
