Hooboy, here we go again:
Barack Obama has only four years to save the world. That is the stark assessment of Nasa scientist and leading climate expert Jim Hansen who last week warned only urgent action by the new president could halt the devastating climate change that now threatens Earth. Crucially, that action will have to be taken within Obama’s first administration, he added.
Soaring carbon emissions are already causing ice-cap melting and threaten to trigger global flooding, widespread species loss and major disruptions of weather patterns in the near future. “We cannot afford to put off change any longer,” said Hansen. “We have to get on a new path within this new administration. We have only four years left for Obama to set an example to the rest of the world. America must take the lead.”
Hansen said current carbon levels in the atmosphere were already too high to prevent runaway greenhouse warming. Yet the levels are still rising despite all the efforts of politicians and scientists.
Ever notice these watermelons (green on the outside, but they’re red in the middle) always say we only have “x” amount of years to save the earth? And yet they’ve been wrong every single time.
Ted Danson was famous for making such statements back in the 1980s and 1990s, that we only had ten years before it was too late. It’s been way longer than ten years, and we’re still here, heads above water, doing just fine.
I wish these so-called scientists would figure out what the hell they want, because it’s pissing me off to no end. First, back in the 1970s, they told us an ice age was coming (our fault, of course) and that we were doomed. Then it was global warming (again, our fault). And recently, they’ve resurrected the ice age bit (apparently this NASA guy didn’t get the memo about that, otherwise he’d be repeating the “ice-age is coming!!!” meme).
Look, I’m going to be as blunt as I possibly can: global warming, approaching ice-ages, climate change — whatever they want to dress it up as and call it — is a giant scam perpetrated by the left on unsuspecting, gullible dopes (like our “friends”, the tea-smoking hippies). It’s purpose is to scare people into giving liberals in government more money, more power, and more control over our daily lives. Don’t buy into it, it’s total nonsense.
Oh, and by the way. Don’t be taken in by the left’s attempt to change the term from “global warming” to “climate change”. The ONLY reason they’ve started doing that is to cover their bases. If it gets too hot, they can shout “climate change!” If it gets too cold, or too wet, or too dry — whatever the weather condition — they’ll try and blame it on “climate change” and say that we, by our very existence, are causing it. Again, it’s total horses##t. The earth goes through normal weather cycles and does far more damage to itself than we could ever do, and yet it is constantly healing. Volcanoes, earthquakes, forest fires, floods, you name it, yet it always bounces back. And it’s been this way for billions of years!
I ask you, when was the last time we ever came close to unleashing the power of one volcanic eruption? Never, and we can’t. Nothing that mankind has ever done or could do, short of a global nuclear war, could impact the planetary environment on the scale they’re talking about.
