It takes a man of character and courage to swim against the current of their times. When that current is fueled by a combination of political elites, mass media propaganda, and industry insiders hoping to make a killing from the resulting markets created by that current, the swim can be most daunting indeed.
Such a man is John Coleman, the founder of The Weather Channel. He has made it his life's goal to fight Global Warming hype. Talk about swimming against the current!
Here's a sampling of what Mr. Coleman had to say in a speech given recently before the San Diego Chamber of Commerce.
Hello Al Gore; Hello UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Your science is flawed; your hypothesis is wrong; your data is manipulated. And, may I add, your scare tactics are deplorable. The Earth does not have a fever. Carbon dioxide does not cause significant global warming.You don't hear this kind of talk on any of the mainstream news channels (yes, Fox News, I'm including you here as well). Why not? Because their corporate masters stand to benefit financially from the hysteria surrounding global warming, particularly NBC, owned by General Electric.
Carbon dioxide is not an environmental problem; they just want you now to think it is.
Numerous independent research projects have been done about the greenhouse impact from increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide. These studies have proven to my total satisfaction that CO2 is not creating a major greenhouse effect and is not causing an increase in temperatures. By the way, before his death, Roger Revelle [the father of global warming research] coauthored a paper cautioning that CO2 and its greenhouse effect did not warrant extreme countermeasures.
So now it has come down to an intense campaign, orchestrated by environmentalists claiming that the burning of fossil fuels dooms the planet to run-away global warming. Ladies and Gentlemen, that is a myth.
I suspect you haven’t heard it because the mass media did not report it, but I am not alone on the no man-made warming side of this issue. On May 20th, a list of the names of over thirty-one thousand scientists who refute global warming was released. Thirty-one thousand of which 9,000 are Ph.ds. Think about that. Thirty-one thousand. That dwarfs the supposed 2,500 scientists on the UN panel.
Follow the money. Follow the money and you'll see that those behind the global warming scare, including Mr. Gorebells, have huge financial stakes in green technology or in the sale of carbon credits, a PT Barnum-worthy scam if ever there was one.
