Stop That Train, I'm Leaving


Global Warming: Man-Made or Natural?

Human activities are not influencing the global climate in a perceptible way. Climate will continue to change, as it always has in the past, warming and cooling on different time scales and for different reasons, regardless of human action.

This is not to say that we don’t face a serious problem. But the problem is political. Because of the mistaken idea that governments can and must do something about climate, pressures are building that have the potential of distorting energy policies in a way that will severely damage national economies, decrease standards of living, and increase poverty. This misdirection of resources will adversely affect human health and welfare in industrialized nations, and even more in developing nations. Thus it could well lead to increased social tensions within nations and conflict between them.


Polar bears are not endangered!

As those who have been watching the "climate change" debate know, that term can mean anything. Proponents say climate change causes the ice caps to melt; causes massive hurricanes; causes milder hurricanes; causes massive rain fall; causes deserts; causes flooding; causes colder winters; causes milder winters; in short, climate change is an undefined theory that can mean anything its proponents find necessary to enforce their agenda. That is a very dangerous premise on which to try to function as a society.


The Democratic war on science

In a science free of politics, he noted, there should be no reason to scramble and nothing to clarify.
