I am writing this from the snug on Bowen Island where I am waiting for the ferry to resume service. I was supposed to be going home yesterday but there was too much snow. It has finally warmed up a bit and has stopped snowing long enough for me and my brother to clear the drive way; only to learn that the the ferry ramp is inoperative and all morning sailings have been canceled. So here I sit hoping that the 3:00 will run.
All this snow leaves me wondering where is global warming? This winter Vancouver has had its worst snow fall since the sixties. Last year Ontario had its worst snow fall in recorded history, China had its coldest winter in 100 years, and Bagdad even had snow (something that never happens). 2 Bad winters in a row has got to throw a dent in the global warming theory.
But of course weather is not a good measure of climate change. For that we will need to look at the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean. To accurately measure the atmosphere we need to look at data from weather balloons and satellites; both of which have been in service for more then 20 years. The result is that the atmosphere is not warming and in fact has cooled by 0.5 Fahrenheit. So this warming that has us all scared must be in the water. Last year the NASA project Argo which utilizes 3000 buoys (which can dive deep under water) released its results. For 5 year, since the project started, there has been no warming in the ocean.
With absolutely no credible evidence of global warming can we finally put this scam to rest. If only it was that easy. take the banning of DDT for example, with all scientific data saying that it was perfectly save it was sill banned. Now millions of people are dying ever year from Malaria, but the environmentalists are happy because they saved the misquotes. My advise is never listen to some one that favors the life of a bug over the life of a human.
