The Great Warming Swindle

I came across this video off of Fox news today, it's from the BBC and it is against Al Gore's crap on global warming. So if you guys have an hour or so to watch this I think it would be good. I have learned alot from this video. And this goes to help us guys fight all those who are against us blowin smoke for fun and bombing our trucks.

Haven't watched the video but science says the earth has warmed 7/10 of 1 degree in the last 100 years. That's .7 dergees folks.


Now, my question is...

How accurate were thermometers 100 years ago? were they digital?

my 2 cents.

hey I didn't post this to make people argue or fight, we aint talkin about politics here even though they drive the enviromentalist, but I just thought it was an interesting video on the other side of this issue that no one seems to want to talk about

Yea, its all "Theory"

I have a couple theories of my own, but then it would be nothing but a "Theory" I guess we can all do this again. . .

I guess some people forgot that during 1930 it got a little warm and dry around these parts. And if there was a real problem then why does Chevron own the Nimh battery (that was very successful in EV cars) and not let any one have use to it. Toyota found out the hard way and was sued by Chevron for 30,000,000 dollars. Not only that the UN where some have obtained their information has reported that cattle make more greenhouse gas than all the cars combined.

Yep - that's what I was thinking....

I think that most of us can agree that the major amount of Global Warming debate comes down to Politics...
