[See, since it's warm in this spot right now, the Earth couldn't be cooling?]: Amid Heat Wave, Senator Talks "Global Cooling" - ABC News
Inhofe was still not deterred when ABC's Jon Karl invited the Oklahoma Republican to talk about the issue outside the Capitol building, in 95-degree, humid July heat.Renewable energy: Not all it’s cracked up to be? | Energy
“Used sensibly, in locations where the fickle nature of wind is no drawback, it is a valuable local resource, but Europe’s massive use of wind as a supplement to baseload electricity will probably be remembered as one of the great follies of the twenty-first century … ,” he writes.Told You So - Planet Gore - National Review Online
Lovelock argues the only clean energy sources that make sense for society are nuclear and solar thermal energy. All the rest aren’t viable without heavy injections of government subsidies and green cheerleading, he says.
Lovelock acknowledges he sometimes takes a bit of hyperbolic licence to make his points — as when he warned that global warming will lead to a die-off of billions of humans this century, resulting in only a “few breeding pairs of people” left in the Arctic.
The situation leaves poor, suckered Europe facing calls for a one- or two-year extension of the failed, expiring pact. Which, given the politics they created, leaves them “BTU’d,” too, and deservedly so.Global cooling could be killing penguins | Energy Probe
Of course, in the eyes of the Left, these failures offer further proof that both democracy and the Constitution are broken. In fact, they reveal quite the opposite.
The Antarctic has been in the throes of a long term cooling period that has seen the southern polar cap get progressively colder for decades. In 2002, scientists Sallie Baliunas and Willie Soon at Harvard warned that the cooling that was then occurring in the Antarctic was leading to the starvation of penguin chicks. The Antarctic cooling with a resulting growth in sea ice -- a cooling that proved wrong the warming predictions from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - was disrupting penguin populations, forcing them to migrate to more hospitable surroundings.
