Actually, it was in the mountains around RAK. Dubai didn't see any snow, but it was close. |

Why not? You'd probably end up with similar projection ratios as the world's scientists. |

| One can continue to foul their home only for so long before there are consequences to deal with. |

Mises...The guy who writes these press releases (Marc Morano) works directly for Senator Inhofe; the leading "Global Warming skeptic" in the American government.
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=James_Inhofe
I wouldn't call him an unbiased or particuarly accomplished credible source on environmental issues.
especially cause:
"James M. Inhofe has accepted $311,800 in oil contributions during the 110th congress. $160,800 of those dollars were from industry PACS. In total, Inhofe has received $662,506 from oil companies since from 2000 to 2008, which makes him a top recipient of oil money. In addition to oil, Inhofe has received $152,800 in coal contributions during the 110th Congress. $94,500 of those dollars were from industry PACS."
<from above link>
If you go to AND read the studies and research that is quoted, you'll see the facts are cherrypicked. Many of the scientists themselves agree with anthropocentric GW and they all explain how their "apparently contradictory" data confirms it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming_consensus
Not a single scientific organization (national or international) that doubts anthro-GW.
Not ONE!
Yet SOMEHOW this idea of a lack of consensus pervades. Why?
Even American Association of Petroleum Geologists (guess who may pay for their research), can only manage a noncommital statement. |
