"Global warming crisis cancelled ... was it ever really a crisis?"

Global warming? What global warming?

Carl Kilo today reported the second snow with accumulation this fall in Southwest Virginia ... New England has already experienced snow ... North Dakota had three feet of snow last week ... Snowbird Ski Resort in Utah had its earliest opening this year for only the second time in its existence ... England is experiencing colder-than-normal weather ...

... and Al Gore is still pushing global warming?

I do not believe in global warming and the reason is because I am old enough to remember when they were warning of global cooling when I was young. Within my lifetime I am supposed to believe the planet went from cooling to warming?

I don't think so.

I read as much as I can about the subject and receive email updates on a daily basis from several sources. The Icecap website which was co-founded by John Coleman, who began The Weather Channel, debunks global warming and is supported by scientists worldwide. Last year 31,000 scientists signed a petition saying they did not believe in Al Gore's theory. These were men of science ... unlike Al Gore who is pushing a liberal political agenda with his false claims.

The Second Annual International Conference on Climate Change will be held March 8-10, 2009. The theme is "Global Warming Crisis: Cancelled. Was it ever really a crisis?"

In an email from Joseph D'Aleo, Executive Director of ICECAP, he explained:

The title reflects (a) the shift in scientific understanding toward the skeptics' perspective, (b) the defeat of the Lieberman-Warner cap-and-trade bill in the U.S. Senate in July, (c) rising public opinion opposing global warming alarmism, and (d) rising energy and food prices around the world.

There will be over 70 speakers including Dr William Gray, Dr. Richard Lindzen, Dr. Roy Spencer, Dr. Willie Soon, Dr. Bob Carter, Dr. Fred Singer, Anthony Watts, Steve McIntyre, Dr. Ross McKitrick. Lord Christopher Monckton, Craig Idso, Dr. Benny Peiser, John Coleman, Chris Horner, Dr. Tim Patterson, Dr. Paul Reiter, and many, many more. I also will be speaking.
Details and links are provided in the bottom right section on Icecap.

ICECAP is one of the co-sponsors.

This is a real opportunity to meet and talk to some of the giants in the field. I attended and spoke at last years' conference which I wrote about here.

Thank you for your interest in and support of Icecap over the last 1 1/2 years. We have had over 5.1 million people hits on our home page over that time. 80% since last November. We receive most all of our operating expenses from donations from people like you and we are thankful for your support.

Like most of the other skeptic bloggers, we are not driven by profit but by the need to provide to you information that is not getting out through to you in the mainstream media. This has never been more important than it is today when our governments have taken or are contemplating unnecessary and unwise steps that will do further harm to an already collapsing global economy.

Weather Channel founder advocates suing Al Gore for "the fraud of global warming"

John Coleman, founder of The Weather Channel, was on Fox and Friends this morning talking about the hoax of global warming, emphasizing this has been the coldest winter in modern history, and saying The Weather Channel has lost its way.

People tune in to hear the weather, he said, not to be told what to think or hear the traffic report or preached to about global warming.

The Business and Media Institute reported on Mr. Coleman's remarks made before an audience at the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change on Monday in New York:

“The Weather Channel had great promise, and that’s all gone now because they’ve made every mistake in the book on what they’ve done and how they’ve done it and it’s very sad,” Coleman said. “It’s now for sale and there’s a new owner of The Weather Channel will be announced – several billion dollars having changed hands in the near future. Let’s hope the new owners can recapture the vision and stop reporting the traffic, telling us what to think and start giving us useful weather information.”

Mr. Coleman advocated suing Al Gore to expose "the fraud of global warming."

“[I] have a feeling this is the opening,” Coleman said. “If the lawyers will take the case – sue the people who sell carbon credits. That includes Al Gore. That lawsuit would get so much publicity, so much media attention. And as the experts went to the media stand to testify, I feel like that could become the vehicle to finally put some light on the fraud of global warming.”

I am glad to see Mr. Coleman and his fellow scientists fighting back against Big Media, Hollywood, and Al Gore. Check out his website, ICECAP, for daily updates from scientists around the country who present evidence to debunk the fraud of global warming.

The Weather Channel creator John Coleman: "Global warming 'greatest scam in history' "

[November 11, 2007 -- I was privileged to work with John Coleman, the founder of The Weather Channel in the year before it became a reality and then for the first of the 6 years I was fortunate to be the Director of Meteorology. No one worked harder than John to make The Weather Channel a reality and to make sure the staffing, the information and technology was the very best possible at that time. John currently works with KUSI in San Diego. He posts regularly. I am very pleased to present his latest insightful post. -- Joe D’Aleo, Icecap, CCM]

By John Coleman (and read on the Glenn Beck radio show)

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM. Some dastardly scientists with environmental and political motives manipulated long term scientific data to create an illusion of rapid global warming. Other scientists of the same environmental whacko type jumped into the circle to support and broaden the “research” to further enhance the totally slanted, bogus global warming claims. Their friends in government steered huge research grants their way to keep the movement going. Soon they claimed to be a consensus.

Environmental extremists, notable politicians among them, then teamed up with movie, media and other liberal, environmentalist journalists to create this wild “scientific” scenario of the civilization threatening environmental consequences from Global Warming unless we adhere to their radical agenda. Now their ridiculous manipulated science has been accepted as fact and become a cornerstone issue for CNN, CBS, NBC, the Democratic Political Party, the Governor of California, school teachers and, in many cases, well informed but very gullible environmentally conscientious citizens. Only one reporter at ABC has been allowed to counter the Global Warming frenzy with one 15 minute documentary segment.

I do not oppose environmentalism. I do not oppose the political positions of either party. However, Global Warming, i.e. Climate Change, is not about environmentalism or politics. It is not a religion. It is not something you “believe in.” It is science; the science of meteorology. This is my field of life-long expertise. And I am telling you Global Warming is a non-event, a manufactured crisis and a total scam. I say this knowing you probably won’t believe a me, a mere TV weatherman, challenging a Nobel Prize, Academy Award and Emmy Award winning former Vice President of United States. So be it.

I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have talked with numerous scientists. I have studied. I have thought about it. I know I am correct. There is no run away climate change. The impact of humans on climate is not catastrophic. Our planet is not in peril. I am incensed by the incredible media glamour, the politically correct silliness and rude dismissal of counter arguments by the high priest of Global Warming.

In time, a decade or two, the outrageous scam will be obvious. As the temperature rises, polar ice cap melting, coastal flooding and super storm pattern all fail to occur as predicted everyone will come to realize we have been duped. The sky is not falling. And, natural cycles and drifts in climate are as much if not more responsible for any climate changes underway. I strongly believe that the next twenty years are equally as likely to see a cooling trend as they are to see a warming trend.
