The Daily Bayonet: Global Warming Hoax Weekly Round-Up, Feb. 13th 2009

Welcome to the round-up, your weekly cornucopia of links that will get you thinking about the global warming hoax and give you an excuse to laugh at hippies.

Science Convention Convenes, Gore To Appear.  Why do the rank and file AAAS members put up with this?

Says AAAS president James J. McCarthy, "Today, the warming of our planet is unequivocal, and human activities are a primary cause. Within the next few human generations, the effect of these climate changes could put the survival of many species at risk."

McCarthy's Annual Meeting theme, "Our Planet and Its Life: Origins and Futures," recognizes the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth, as well as the 150th anniversary of three other events - the publication of On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, the first commercial oil well, and Sir John Tyndall's discovery of carbon dioxide's greenhouse effect.

Of course, what's a global warming conference without Mr. Global Warming himself, Al Gore? Gore will be making a special address tomorrow for registered conference attendees. It's a perfect fit for the inconvenient truther.

AAAS - Annual Meeting - Special Invited Address: Al Gore

"Al Gore has been a world leader in confronting the threat of global climate change, and a staunch supporter of science and technology," said McCarthy, the Alexander Agassiz Professor of Biological Oceanography at Harvard University.

"He was among the very first political leaders to recognize the urgency of unequivocal scientific evidence pointing to global climate change related to human activities," McCarthy added. "He understands that climate change could soon put the survival of many species at risk, and it affects the lives and livelihoods of millions of people. Moreover, he is also an ardent advocate for the scientific research, technological developments, and policies that will reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. It will be a tremendous honor for the AAAS and AAPT communities to hear his special invited address."
