I do not use to participate in political rants in this thread, much less about other country's politics. But, as the world is quite bigger than the USA (who would have said it!), I cannot resist:

Let me introduce to you Mr. Zapatero, our anthropogenically optimist & socialist President.

He -precisely- is a master in shaping reality to fit his beliefs and totally unable to find what works.

when clinton was in office the R's complained about his polling, but he used polling to find out what the people wanted

when bush polled it was to find out what words would work to sell what the R's wanted to sell the people

it's the average over time that matters. And yes, just a few degrees difference in the average global temperature can cause a significant change in climate.
Troy, tell me what are you afraid of? That the weather will change? (because it has not changed yet despite all that CO2)

Weather will change REGARDLESS of what we do or stop doing.
Whilst we are here talking this nonsense about variations in temperature that will keep on varying whatever we do, the food industry poisons us with pesticides, mercury, food colour, flavour enhancers, preservatives, antibiotics and assorted poisons all dutifully legal.
And the same law makers that have made all those poisons legal, want you and me to PAY SPECIAL TAXES, under the pretenses that doing so will "stop the climate changing"
Such claim is so infantile and believing it to be possible is so naive that it is beyond belief anyone would actually fall for it.

I like this little snippet
Clearly religion is the poison of human kind. Whatever religion it is.

Quote:
Climate Change As A Cult

The zeal of climate-change advocates and lack of objectivity has led some observers to see it as a core belief in a new eco-theology, using themes of traditional Judeo-Christian beliefs. columnist Deon Feder warns, that following other attempts such as Marxism, overpopulation, Silent Spring,

now we have the Church of Global Warming, under the leadership of Pope Albert I and his college of cardinals (the Natural Resources Defense Council, Sierra Club and editorial board of The New York Times). Its Office for the Propagation of the Faith works overtime, churning out books, movies (from the fictional “The Day After Tomorrow” to the fictional “An Inconvenient Truth”), textbooks, concerts, congressional hearings, media pleading and inquisitions.[28]

Commenting on the tendency to hastily issue dire warnings of Climate Change, seen in the coming Ice Age scare of the 70's, Maurizio Morabito asked, “Is the problem with the general public, who cannot talk about climate except in doom-laden terms, and for whom the sky is the last animist god?" [29]

Mark Steyn writes in Macleans,

"Forty years ago conventional religious belief was certainly in decline in what we once knew as Christendom, but the hole was not yet ozone-layer sized. Once the sea of faith had receded far from shore, the post-Christian West looked at what remained and found “Gaia.”

And while, "When man was made in the image of God, he was fallen but redeemable", among these devotees of Gaia,

Anti-humanism is everywhere, not least in the barely concealed admiration for China’s (demographically disastrous) “One Child” policy advanced by everyone from the National Post’s Diane Francis to Sir David Attenborough, the world’s leading telly naturalist but also a BBC exec who once long ago commissioned the great series The Ascent of Man. If Sir David’s any guide, the great thing about man’s ascent is it gives him a higher cliff to nosedive off.[30]

I have found this funny definition at the Urban Dictionary:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...obal%20warmist

Global warmist.

"To be defined as a global warmist, a person must have all of the following traits: 1) An absolute belief that humans are primarily or even completely responsible for causing a mass climate change which will raise the average temperature of the planet. 2) Will not entertain the idea that it is possible that natural phenomena may cause climate change, regardless of any evidence. 3) Believes it is a good thing to throw billions upon billions of dollars at an idea that may or may not work to stop climate change, "just in case." 4) Believes that natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes are an indirect result of humankind's actions to cause climate change. 5) Shouts down, puts down, and insults anyone whose beliefs run contrary to their own, rather than having intelligent discourse. A zealot for their cause."


And this one is even more funny:

Global warming fart:

"A fart so heat-filled that it measurably contributes to the temperature of the planet."
