Idiot.
Jesus, can't you fools do ANYTHING but parrot fox news propaganda? Why are you so damn afraid of doing your own research and thinking? What, are you pussies?
But, yes, sudden spells of intense cooling and cold ARE part of the global warming model - what happened in europe this winter, for example, is exactly the kind of thing the model predicts, as is the warm weather here.

Hey Bill8, I'm old enough to remember what was going on in the 1970's and 1980's. And yes...it was BIG news that we were going to be having an Ice Age because of human beings.
I'm not "parroting fox news". I'll just give you a link to an article in TIME magazine from 1974:

YOU need to do some research. I've been around long enough to see the scientists change their opinions in direct correlation to whomever is paying their bills.
The scientists working for oil companies say one thing...the ones working for Green Energy say another.
These scientists are just people at the end of the day. They do whatever is going to pay the rent.
And that Time magazine article isn't the only one. We were watching "educational" films in high school in the 1970's that were indoctrinating us to believe that mankind was definitely bringing on an Ice Age from the gases we were releasing in the air. Yes...it was the consensus then.
Hell...even recent studies are saying that an Ice Age is coming. This is from National Geographic in 2005:

But at least that one doesn't blame humans.
In my humble opinion...the entire "climate change" argument can be put in three words: "Follow The Money".
Whether it's oil companies...or on the flip side "Green Energy" interests...there are billions of dollars in play and at stake.
