Global Warming, a Money Making Hoax
Posted on November 21, 2009 - Filed Under Environmentalism, News
Hi Oz Is global warming a money making hoax? There sure seems to be a lot of money in it, as well as an element of control in our everyday lives. Not to mention, scientists seem to form a bond of those who do believe in it and ask for drastic action very much against those who are skeptical. They sure show themselves with the alarming things that they say, followed by a lit of maybe's, possibly's, perhaps, could's and so on. Here's such a headline: 'Climate change pushes poor women to prostitution' Come on, what else will they think of? What else will they come up with to sound an alarm on something that just doesn't exist as a threat? In fact, these same Climatologists are Baffled by Global Warming Time-OutGlobal warming appears to have stalled. Climatologists are puzzled as to why average global temperatures have stopped rising over the last 10 years. Some attribute the trend to a lack of sunspots, while others explain it through ocean currents.Ten years the temperatures remain the same. Yet all we hear about is how we have to change our carbon footprint by windbags who travel all over the world (creating a huge carbon footprint of their own) telling the rest of us how to live. (Did I mention that Obama used 71 cars to get from the airport to his meeting in China?) Back to the original question, is it a money making hoax? Al Gore chairs a firm that makes money on the performance of their investments and invests in things that benefit from Al Gore’s environmental hysteria. In other words, Al Gore makes money when these investments perform well; and these investments perform well when Al Gore goes out and cheerleads for environmentalism and sustainability.
