We keep hearing about a tipping point in the global warming mess, a point of no return at which the Earth will simply be on fire. But last week, the leftists using global warming propaganda to push their socialist agenda hit a tipping point of their own, when one of Australia’s top climate scientists described in great detail — to a national radio audience — not only how the Earth stopped warming ten years ago, but the degree of consensus among scientists on this point (and the unwillingness of media to report it).

…which might be excessive, but given last week’s revelation that 2007’s global temperature drops completely wiped out all the global warming of the entire past century, one does have to wonder: will Gore have to give back his Oscar?

The hard evidence is in: a twelve-month long drop in world temperatures just wiped out a century of warming. All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA’s GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously.

Maybe. Russian, Danish and Canadian climatologists have long been saying that “global warming” existed but wasn’t due to man: in their view, it was the consequence of an active sunspot cycle, and it was crazy to believe that man’s comparatively miniscule actions had anything to do with it. (Note that the fact that I can write this paragraph by itself disproves the official Gore-approved dogma that “the scientific community is unanimous” in its support of his global warming claims.)Well, it looks like the skeptics could be right about that sunspot cycle thing. The sun just entered it’s sleepiest phase in a century and half, and guess what? Snow cover over North America, China and Siberia are at record highs, the Arctic ice (we were told on countless magazine covers this fall that it would all melt soon, possibly in just five years) is now at record extent and thickness, and all of this follows similar data from the Southern Hemisphere all last summer (winter down South).The last time the sunspot cycle went into similar form, the world endured a five century-long “Little Ice Age”.It will be pretty funny if, before the five years designated for the North Pole to become subtropical, Al Gore is demanding global socialism to increase carbon emissions. We shall see.Oh, and be sure to read about the debunking of the climate theory in The Day After Tomorrow. Just more proof that, while Green is good, man is a lot smaller than leftists like to think.

So says a new study from Stanford: it projects that ethanol, if used in every U.S. vehicle, would actually produce more ground-level ozone and cause more respiratory-related health problems than gas.

Very interesting indeed, with tremendous potential for vast renewable energy sources as well. But do we really want something Russians could drive a tank through to Alaska? Hmmm.

Brit Hume on Fox News just reported moments ago a new report from the National Academy of Sciences which claims that pine forests are a leading contributor to global warming. Their solution? Cut them all down.

It stands to reason that, if you were a scientist, and if therefore you believed in looking at all possibilities and investigating all known evidence before coming to a conclusion, one of the things you might do — if you believed Earth was getting warmer — was determine whether other planets nearby were doing the same thing.

In an effort to “save the planet”, New York tree-huggers quit using toilet paper. No kidding.
