I never thought I would say this, especially now that Glenn Beck has transferred over to FOX, but thank you CNN.
Recently, on national cable television, CNN Meteorologist Chad Meyers stated
You know, to think that we could affect weather all that much is pretty arrogant. Mother Nature is so big, the world is so big, the oceans are so big – I think we’re going to die from a lack of fresh water or we’re going to die from ocean acidification before we die from global warming, for sure.Dr. Jay Lehr, an environmental policy expert stated
If we go back really, in recorded human history, in the 13th Century, we were probably 7 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than we are now and it was a very prosperous time for mankind. If go back to the Revolutionary War 300 years ago, it was very, very cold. We’ve been warming out of that cold spell from the Revolutionary War period and now we’re back into a cooling cycle. The last 10 years have been quite cool. And right now, I think we’re going into cooling rather than warming and that should be a much greater concern for humankind. But, all we can do is adapt. It is the sun that does it, not man.Another meteorologist, Rob Marciano was quoted thusly about the Goracle's Movie, An Inconvenient Truth, before retracting his comments under a massive wave of threats against his credibility
There are definitely some inaccuracies. The biggest thing I have a problem with is this implication that Katrina was caused by global warming. Global warming does not conclusively cause stronger hurricanes like we’ve seen, by the end of this century we might get about a 5 percent increase.
