Scientists Denounce AP For Hysterical Global Warming Article | NewsBusters.org
Scientists from around the world are denouncing an Associated Press article hysterically claiming that global warming is "a ticking time bomb" about to explode, and that we're "running out of time" to do anything about it...
Up North Mommy Talks Politics » Associated Press: the end of the world is nigh!
Yes, in the AP’s alternate universe, a cooling trend is more proof that the earth is warming even faster than previously thought. Don’t try to understand their logic. You’ll just sprain something.
...
Will all these global warming alarmists listen to these scientists? Not a chance because global warming is no longer about science. It’s about power and control over large numbers of people and their behavior. Global warming is nothing but a tool that’s being used by those who seek power. Don’t buy into the fearmongering.
This story somehow leaves me unconvinced that CO2 will kill us all: Global warming suspected as reason for a declining blackbird population in Arkansas
Instead of migrating to Arkansas, past northwest Arkansas and into the rice belt of the Delta to obtain food, more blackbirds are now stopping in the in the Dakotas for nourishment.

Arkansas Wildlife Services has maintained a blackbird management program to use nonviolent tactics to scare away blackbirds and keep them from the rice crops.

In the past, it was common to see a roost of two million birds in one town. Wildlife Services would report up to 100 million blackbirds in the area in a year in the 1960s and 1970s. "We have not seen a million birds in a roost in about five years," Booth said.
