Apparently
this guy and others of like
persuasion don't have credentials enough to be heard by the main stream press
and the U. N. global warming crowd.
Global
Warming?
Read this . . . there's room for thought.

Are you
sitting down?
Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption
in Iceland
Of course you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying
to suppress, that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and
grow, and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans, and all animal
life. I know, it's very
disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have
accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of:
driving Prius hybrids, buying
fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kid's "The Green
Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning
supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet
tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of
abroad, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50
cents light bulbs with $10.00 light bulbs...well, all of those things you have
done have all gone down the tubes in just four
days.
The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four
days - yes - FOUR DAYS ONLY by that volcano in Iceland, has totally erased every
single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon.
And there are around
200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud any one time - EVERY
DAY.
I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should
mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it
spewed more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had
emitted in its entire TIME on earth.
Mt Pinatubo was
active for over one year. Think about it.
Of course I shouldn't spoil this touchy-feely tree-hugging moment
by
mentioning the effect
of solar and cosmic activity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and
cooling cycle which keep happening despite our completely insignificant efforts
to affect climate change.
I wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud but the fact
of the matter is that the brush fire season across
the western USA and
Australia
Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping
carbon tax on you on the basis of the bogus ''human-caused'' climate change
scenario. Isn't it interesting
how they don't mention ''Global Warming'' any more, but just ''Climate Change''
- you know why? It's
because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these
global warming bullshit artists got caught with their pants down.
Just keep in mind that you might
yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme (that whopping new tax) imposed on 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, give the world a hug and have a nice
day!
PS: I wonder if Iceland
