By Climate Basics, I am focusing on the Global Warming debacle. Whether the global climate is heating or cooling in itself has been a debate, although most of the talk is pushing for the idea that the earth is warming. Like all other climate warming and cooling phases throughout history, we have little to no understanding as to why such cataclysmic events occur, even without man and his industry.
There are theories, but no answers to explain ice ages and their subsequent warm-ups. Ice core samples have repeatedly shown that CO2 increased AFTER the warm-ups, and not before, as we are being led to believe. Even still, CO2 levels in past increases and (now?) are way too meager to affect global temperature.
Why then are we being pummeled every day about "going green" and "saving the planet", etc.? Politicians are, for a variety of reasons, joining this propaganda bandwagon of how our planes, trains, and automobiles are killing the planet and our children and their children will have a big mess to clean up... if they survive. Tick. Tick. Tick, my behind! All living things are carbon-based and these political clowns are trying to make "carbon" a dirty word.
I'll have more to say on this topic, but as this is my first blog here, I just want to say thanks for having me.
