Planet Earth Not Doomed After All
It looks like we're on our way to the climate change consensus that moonbats keep barking about — but the consensus will be that significant manmade global warming is complete bunk. From the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works:
Washington DC — An abundance of new peer-reviewed studies, analysis, and data error discoveries in the last several months has prompted scientists to declare that fear of catastrophic man-made global warming "bites the dust" and the scientific underpinnings for alarm may be "falling apart." The latest study to cast doubt on climate fears finds that even a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide would not have the previously predicted dire impacts on global temperatures. This new study is not unique, as a host of recent peer-reviewed studies have cast a chill on global warming fears.
"Anthropogenic (man-made) global warming bites the dust," declared astronomer Dr. Ian Wilson after reviewing the new study which has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Geophysical Research. Another scientist said the peer-reviewed study overturned "in one fell swoop" the climate fears promoted by the UN and former Vice President Al Gore. The study entitled "Heat Capacity, Time Constant, and Sensitivity of Earth's Climate System," was authored by Brookhaven National Lab scientist Stephen Schwartz. (LINK)
It turns out the climate is only one third as sensitive to CO2 as the UN's hyper-politicized IPCC has been screeching. At the current rate of increase, atmospheric CO2 will double around 2070. This would raise temperatures about 0.6°C — completely insignificant considering the climate's normal fluctuation.
This might be a good time for liberal elitists in the media and government to move on to a new phony crisis before the public starts to notice the egg oozing down their faces.

We all await the screeching from the god-like creature algore and his apostles: "Deniers! I am ALGORE, I am a god! How dare you deny me! Believe in me, or I will strike you all dead by warming your globe! Bwahhhhhhh! Hahhhhhhhh, haahhhhhhhh, haaahhhhhhhh!"
Have the strait-jackets ready for them, folks.

"This might be a good time for liberal elitists in the media and government to move on to a new phony crisis before the public starts to notice the egg oozing down their faces."
And for the environmental groups, this could mean that "global warming" has lost its legs as far as a cry for fundraising. Something happened to the population bomb "crisis", the acid rain "crisis", the overflowing landfill "crisis"...
I am sure they will find the next alarm to cry wolf over...and to keep those checks flowing.

So does this mean none of y'all want to buy some nifty carbon credits? Half price while they last.

The unfortunate fact is that all of this is going to be ignored.
