GREG NELSON: Latest theory is ridiculous - The Morning Sun Opinion

As I’ve stated here before, I think global warming is a crock of crap (and I don’t mean the kind left behind by all those cows and fat people). It’s nothing more than propaganda put forth by overzealous scientists looking to make a name for themselves, not to mention pocket millions of dollars in government grants and subsidies to perform all those studies based on nothing more than theories.

There are just as many climate experts who debunk the notion of global warming as support it.

Heck, it wasn’t that long ago they were warning us about the coming of the next Ice Age. Whatever happened to that prediction?

Mark Steyn: Who will lead the 'post-American era'?

According to an Earth Day survey, one-third of schoolchildren between the ages of 6 and 11 think the Earth will have been destroyed by the time they grow up. That's great news, isn't it? Not for the Earth, I mean, but for "environmental awareness." Congratulations to Al Gore, the Sierra Club and the eco-propagandists of the public education system in doing such a terrific job of traumatizing America's moppets. Traditionally, most of the folks you see wandering the streets proclaiming the end of the world is nigh tend to be getting up there in years. It's quite something to have persuaded millions of first-graders that their best days are behind them.

Call me crazy, but I'll bet that in 15-20 years the planet will still be here, along with most of the "environment" – your flora and fauna, your polar bears and three-toed tree sloths and whatnot.

Lawrence Solomon: Australia becoming a Denier Nation - FP Comment

A break from faith in Australia! The continent down under, which until recently adhered to a strict form of global warming dogma, is experiencing an enlightenment.
“Beware the climate of conformity,” warns the headline for a column on global warming in the Sydney Morning Herald.
...
Thanks to Pilmer, the press and politicians, Australia is likely to become the developed world’s third Denier Nation, after the Czech Republic, where only 11% of the public blame humans for global warming, and the United States, where only 34% blame humans.
