Whacko Left To Turn Out The Lights

This weekend through out the world there will be a rolling one hour blackout. Cities across the globe will turnout their lights for one hour in a symbolic gesture to highlight the ravages of climate change which are about to be-fall mankind. Last year a similar event was orchestrated by non other than the high priest of climatological doom Al Gore. Unfortunately, to the dismay of last years participants research revealed that by turning out the lights they actually increased their carbon footprint. It seems all the manuevers necessary to pull this event off required the use of more energy than if they would have just left the lights on. So this year not to be disauded by facts they decided to call it a symbolic event. One thing is for sure, you can never accuse the radical environmentalist's of letting the facts get in the way. Speaking of the facts who in this movement decided that carbon is the scourge of mankind? Evidently, this group is long on wind and short on science. Carbon is the basic element of all living things. When paleontologists want to find out how old a specimen is they carbon -14 date it. Carbon degrades at a uniform rate and by seeing how much carbon is left yields the age of a specimen. Yes all decaying matter, animal and plant alike release carbon into the atmosphere as they decay. When we breathe we release carbon dioxide and take in oxygen. Plants in turn ,take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen. It's called a cycle, the earth is a sphere of many cycles all of which intertwine on some level to form what we call the cycle of live. If the goal of the environmentalist is to stop carbon emissions they should start by taping their mouth's shut thats a huge source of wasted carbon emissions.
Unfortunately, carbon is not the only left turn(pardon the pun) these pseudo-climatoligists such as Al Gore have made. They have over simplified the workings of the atmosphere. To reduce it's complexity to only the exchange of carbon dioxide and its resultant by-products is to be ignorant at best, and purposely mis-leading at worst. In their haste to forward their mantra of global warming based solely on carbon emissions, they ignore many other variables that makeup this varied and complex phenomenon we call climate. The next time one of your global warming friends starts prophesising to you about our impending doom, ask if when coming to their conclusions have they also looked into all the other variables in the climate equation. Continental drift,vulcanism,solar wind,sun spots,solar prominences, global continental orientation, complex hydrologic cycle, sea currents,wild fires,geo- thermal conduction,ozone,wind,percipitation,altitude and a host of others of which there are to many to mention. Then to end the conversation ask them pointedly what the average global temperature should be. See if there is no fixed constant of what the ideal temperature of the planet should be there is no argument to make for global warming.
Consequently, the only conclusion that can be drawn from all this global warming hysteria is that it is driven by politics not science. It serves the globalists well. It's a center point where all nations can come together in a common cause. A perfect jumping off point for a one world government. Don't mistake this union of nations as a good thing. It's not about the betterment of mankind it's about the consolidation of power. Regretably, the young people who make up much of this movement are well meaning. Sadly, a dumbed down educational system with far less emphasis on science and mathematics has left the young open to be preyed upon by the likes Al Gore, and entrepreneurs who see the "green movement" as a quick way to make a buck. Unfortunately, its not just the under-educated who have been swept out to sea by this riptide of lunacy. The very professors entrusted to educate and promote constructive debate from which knowledge is discerned are active participants in this charade. Anyone familiar with higher education understands the term publish or perish, and the fight for money to conduct research. It's much easier to swim downstream than up. Simply stated, the hot topic of the time is global warming thats where the money is. To go contrary to the prevailing winds in academia assures financial castration. No money,no research,no publish,no job.
Fortunately, of late more and more scientists have been coming out against global warming and hopefully reason and common sense will prevail in the long run. To let our country and way of life fall victim to a power grab by a bunch of ego driven charletans and politicians, would be a far worse fate than any scenario that global warming would bring forth.
