Very interesting.
Subject: Global warming - Takes an Australian tells it like it is!!! #1
Our president is trying to divert attention from his treaty with Iran to saying Carbon is our # l Problem, he is a congenital liar of the nth degree, pushing energy taxes called cap and trade.I have always been skeptical of the “Global Warming” science. There are way too many forces in nature that humans simply cannot match, let alone change!Check this out.Global warming – Takes an Australian tells it like it is!!!Ian Rutherford Plimer is an Australian geologist, professor emeritus of earth sciences at the University of Melbourne, Professor of Mining Geology at the University of Adelaide, and the Director of Multiple Mineral Exploration and Mining Companies. He has published 130 scientific papers, six books and edited the Encyclopedia of Geology.
Born February 1946 (age 68) 12 Residence Nationality Australian Fields Institutions Notable awards Eureka Prize (1995, 2002),Centenary Medal (2003), Clarke Medal (2004)Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From?Professor Ian Plimer could not have said it better! If you've read his book you will agree, this is a good summary.
PLIMER: "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland . Since its first spewing ofvolcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in thepast five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it’s that vitalchemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen forus humans and all animal life.I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you haveaccomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buyingfabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution"science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares oftoilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationingat home instead of abroad!!!
Nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 cent light bulbs with$10.00 light bulbs.....well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes injust four days. The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes,FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have madeto reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planetspewing out this crud at any one time - EVERY DAY.I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when thevolcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhousegases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over one year - think about it. Of course, I shouldn'tspoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging' moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmicactivity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keepshappening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter isthat the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negateyour efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happensevery year.Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, onthe basis of the bogus 'human-caused' climate-change scenario. Hey, isn’t it interestinghow they don’t mention 'Global Warming' anymore, but just 'Climate Change' - you know why?It’s because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and theseglobal warming ‘BS’ artists got caught with their pants down. And, just keep in mind thatyou might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposedon you, that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.It won’t stop any volcanoes from erupting, that’s for sure!!!But, hey, relax...... and have a nice day!"
"and the Director of Multiple Mineral Exploration and Mining Companies"
ReplyDeleteAnd that's why a scientist becomes a sellout.

ReplyDeleteBut of course we already knew that.

ReplyDelete...an idea that Republicans supported, until Barack HUSSEIN Obama decided that he liked it.
This bought off Plimer character is debunked all over the place. A simple Google search reveals how scurrilous his non-scientific crap is. However, RWD is all about ignoring inconvenient facts and believes that science is just for pussies. RWD's tough! He don't need no stinking science!!11!!!11 No, RWD: you are a tool of the 1%.
