Climate Alarmism Debunked

Chuck Zimmerman

Dr. Patrick MooreThe 9th International Conference on Climate Change in underway in Las Vegas and being live streamed. I watched the keynotes this morning and was fascinated.

First up was Dr. Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace. His was the face you saw many years back leading the charge in the face of Russian whaling boats and more. But he says the organization became too radical and anti-human for him. He describes what led him to help create and grow the organization, why he left it and then proceeded to show facts and figures that completely debunk most of the alarmist rhetoric we’re all bombarded with today. One of his best slides shows the global average temperatures over the last billion years. We’re at the low side by a significant margin at 14.5 degrees C while the average over that time period is 22 degrees C!

I recorded his comments for you to hear. Regardless of where you stand on this issue it’s worth listening to. Dr. Patrick Moore Speech

9th International Conference on Climate ChangeThe next keynote speech came from John Coleman, ABC Good Morning America original meteorologist and co-founder of the Weather Channel. Those are some pretty good credentials. He focused on the history behind the global warming movement and I wish I had the time to record it since it was also fascinating to see how it has evolved from the original science of Dr. Roger Revelle. That movement grew into a dollars and politics issue that has largely cast science aside today.

Interestingly, the coordinators of the ICCC9 say they asked all scientists to attend or participate in the program and none accepted the invitation that have a different opinion on the subject.
