Al Gore Just Doesn't Get It: His Climate Models Are All Wrong

Al Gore testified before Congress this morning, and continued to pretend that global warming never happened in the past. He's also ignoring billions of years of additional climate modeling which show that cold periods and warm periods in the Earth's past come and go; here's a sample of the research that he is wishing would go away.

And this was LONG before humanity came along, too.

Gore needs to shift gears and start talking about what we should be doing to prepare for the changes that will come with a warming period, and quit trying to defeat Mother Nature. She'll win, EVERY single time.

Gore fails to mention that climate change is going to happen even if we eliminated ALL sources of pollution and greenhouse gases immediately. His pretentious assertion that we can "stop" global warming is a boatload of crap.

French Darken Eiffel Tower to Promote Climate Change Concerns: Meaningless Display

In an effort to bring attention to an upcoming conference on global change, the electrical company that operates the lights on the Eiffel Tower in Paris will shut them off for five minutes.

Five WHOLE minutes on ONE evening.

Why don't they turn the lights off after 11pm EVERY night--on a permanent basis, except for the aircraft warning lights at the top of the tower? That would be more meaningful than turning the lights off for five minutes on one evening.

I wonder how much energy and money will be wasted when they power the projectors back up. I believe they will use up more energy than if they had simply left the lights on.

Wasteful publicity stunt. Perhaps they should let Greenpeace keep it's banner on the tower--that seems more effective way to bring attention to global climate change.
