Climate change 'may displace up to 200 million'

... When the sun is more active, fewer cosmic rays reach the earth. This reduces the cloud cover and allows more warming to occur. Cosmic ray data and temperature data were compared for a 600-million year period and a significant direct relationship was discovered. When cosmic rays went up, the temperature went down, and vice versa. Now, two vastly different sets of data, sun spots and earth’s temperature, and cosmic rays and earth’s temperature, point to the sun as the source of climate change resulting in release and uptake of CO2. The inescapable conclusion is the sun is driving global warming. CO2 is irrelevant. The argument for manmade CO2 causing global warming had its beginning in the 1970s. At the height of the global cooling scare in the 1970s, Swedish scientist Bert Bolin suggested that manmade CO2 might help to warm the earth and stave off the coming ice age. The theory was considered eccentric and absurd. Then global temperature started to rise and there was a coal miner’s strike in England. The theory of manmade global warming began to be politicized when Margaret Thatcher (then Prime Minister) set out to break the political power of the coal miners. She saw an opportunity in the global warming debate to promote nuclear power because it doesn’t emit CO2. She went to the Royal Society and offered funding to study the potential of CO2-driven global warming. Ultimately, the result was the formation of the IPCC...

Are you off your meds?
There are A LOT of wingnuts on these threads, spouting all sorts of truly wierd conspiracies about a 'liberal elite' and whatnot, but you are in a class by yourself.
You first post was all "Stop feeding people,'cause they will get soft. Let's have a war instead."
Now you're posting "Only 'liberals' want to feed people so they don't rise up."
You're insane.

Actually I was quoting history. The oman empire has been well studied and reseached but they are not the only example. There are others from Jamestown the the USSR. All have one thing in common, falure.

Just like when people claim that violence dosn't solve problems fail to realize that violence has solved more problems than not. After all it is hard to argue with someone you just nuked.

i hope all you people know the sun controls the earths temperature. 90 percent of ALL oxygen converted from carbon dioxide is and has always been converted by algae. trees just help a little. carbon is a natural thing it rises and falls back to earth global warming is such bull the poles are melting! no there growing......"The results of ice-core drilling and sea ice monitoring indicate there is no large-scale melting of ice over most of Antarctica, although experts are concerned at ice losses on the continent's western coast." fox news type in ice caps growing in google... you people make me sick... i bet you all love obama and drive a prius... scrape the sticker off and wake up...prisonplanet.com...ron paul for president!

Continuation of Brian's post #492, from the same source:

"With the failure of communism and socialism, peaceniks and political activists turned to the environmental movement with their neo-Marxism and began to use green language for their anti-capitalism and anti-globalization agendas. An amazing kind of alliance developed between Margaret Thatcher on the right and left-wing anti-capitalism environmentalists that created the momentum behind the looney idea of manmade global warming. By the time of the elder Bush’s administration in the U.S.A, global investment in climate science had increased to $2B per year. There are now great sums of money and tens of thousands of jobs depending on manmade global warming. Scientists that do not agree with manmade global warming have greater difficulty getting their research funded. Consequently, they tend not to take public stands against the theory. When they do speak out they are accused of being paid by the multi-nationals or oil and gas companies. Today, developing nations are coming under immense pressure not to develop. Essentially this means they can’t have electricity. Without electricity open fires will continue to be used inside homes resulting in the deadliest pollution in the world…indoor smoke. Each year, indoor smoke kills four million children under age of five. These deaths will continue as a consequence of attempting to stop a non-existent cause of climate change."

Warmists want to reduce CO2 and don't care who they murder in the process.
