| Global Warming Waning Alan Korwin The lamestream media told you: Polar bears have been added to the endangered species list, because melting Arctic sea ice caused by global warming threatens them with extinction. The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that: More than 32,000 scientists have now signed a petition urging the United States government to reject global warming hysteria, the Kyoto accords, and similar radical proposals, seriously undermining the global warming agenda. The news has been ignored by lamestream outlets for unknown reasons. The alarm agenda is promoted primarily by 1,600 people involved with a U.N.-approved political body, the International Panel on Climate Change. Many IPCC signatories disagreed with its released conclusions and fought to have their names removed from the document. Many in the IPCC are politicians or have no credentials in the field. Of the 32,000 scientists signing the independent Global Warming Petition Project, more than 9,000 have Ph.D.s., and all are listed at the petition website. The group says, in part, “The purpose of the Petition Project is to demonstrate that the claim of “settled science” and an overwhelming “consensus” in favor of the hypothesis of human-caused global warming and consequent climatological damage is wrong. No such consensus or settled science exists. As indicated by the petition text and signatory list, a very large number of American scientists reject this hypothesis.” They go on to say, “The human-caused global warming hypothesis is without scientific validity and that government action on the basis of this hypothesis would unnecessarily and counterproductively damage both human prosperity and the natural environment of the Earth.” The petition itself points out that, “There is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.” It is virtual exhoneration for the “cynics, skeptics, deniers and Luddites” who are viciously accused by Oscar-winner Al Gore, his followers, and the U.N. of harming Mother Earth. In other news, the left-leaning Weekly Spin newsletter laments that, “A new TNS survey finds what some might call a ‘bitter’ market segment who do ‘not respond well to green messaging.’ These so-called Eco Villians are ‘predominantly Midwestern, middle-income family-men in small to mid-sized metro areas. Eco Villains do not believe in global warming, disdain eco-conscious products and suspect that environmental media coverage is propaganda.’” They also point out that firms that promote “greenness,” but are caught fraudulently greenwashing their image, could be in for trouble from deceived consumers. http://www.tns-us.com/news/_tns_global_study_.php Now that the whole global whining scheme has been shaken by tens of thousands of true scientists, the proposed U.N. and domestic taxes, market controls and population-management plans are in jeopardy, but no one expects them to give up such clever and awesome raw power without a fight, let alone to save face. Al “Big-Carbon-Footprint” Gore could not be reached for comment. Getting back to the starting point, polar bears have been added to the American endangered species list, because most other nations do not have such lists. Canada, a land mass that has ice and snow on it, has raised some objections, since polar-bear management involves, among other things, hunting and tourism that brings significant revenue to the largely frozen nation. Some 60 hunts already underway, with a minimum cost of at least $10,000 each, will need some sort of exclusion for trophies already taken or planned. Giving up future revenue because some other nation keeps animal lists is reportedly unpopular.
