    They're trying to be politically correct. But it's just lip service! :)

    Ted Turner funded the IPCC with a billion dollars.
    His views on this are clear, the goal to reduce human population levels to a few hundred million.
    So IMO, the IPCC and the AGW and the globalists are definitely part of a conspiracy of sorts.

    See what I mean and how could anyone believe in these parts of the AGW agenda unless they are evil.

    Where is the sea level rise when earth warmed before?

    This is what they want to do, worship mother earth, the goddess Gaea, be subservient to and serve created things as part of a global power grab to do what ever is desired.

    It's hardly a conspiracy if it's public knowledge, is it?

    I don't see anything wrong with advocating for a much lower population, though I'm cynical that it will ever happen unless we reach the levels of mass extinction which may well eliminate the population entirely anyway.

    hmmmmm, maybe I wasn't clear enough

    this isn't another climate shift denial thread

    Its concerning our oceans, how they are being effected by climate shift, and how yachting is effected. As well as what responses can be made in design or behavior to help deal with it. Can I just design a more robust boat, do I really have to just consider less days of clear weather ? How are the oceans in my chosen area responding to climate shift ?

    In the PNW its a little harder to just sail around a weather system, the inside passage is a little tight for that, so following the weather will be even more important, particularly since this area is being so severely effected by climate shift.

    with a slight emphasis on Cyberharassment. IE constantly interjecting off topic or prohibited topic posts. The theory of Rapid Global Climate Shift has a 98% consensus view with the only dissenting parties being those paid off by the oil and gas industry. The question is what we're going to do about it.

    Cheers

    Who funds the IPCC?
    http://www.ipcc.ch/organization/organization_procedures.shtml#.T830aFLdM9o

    Who did Ted Turner give one billion dollars to?
    http://edition.cnn.com/US/9709/18/turner.gift/

    So while its possible that part of Turners gift did find its way into the IPCC, it doesn't appear the whole gift was earmarked for the IPCC.

    I suppose the quote that's getting your knickers in a twist is this: "Despite the fact that Turner himself has 5 children, he has put forward this view a number of times before. "We're too many people; that's why we have global warming," he told PBS's Charlie Rose in April. "Too many people are using too much stuff.""

    Look, mate. I could go on record as saying that no woman should ever age beyond 21 years and all of them should be beautiful and slim. But even if I gave a billion dollars to Liz Claiborne dot Org it still wouldn't happen.

    So, getting back to global warming affecting our cherished cruising grounds, if Ted Turner's wish were to come true, would it help? Well, seems to me it would be a step in the right direction and I support his statement.

    So there. Now you can start a conspiracy theory about me!!! I've never had one before.
