One of the most noteworthy of global warming predictions that did not come true was Al Gore’s 2008 insistence that the North Pole would be free of ice within five years by 2013. We know from the recent fate of the ice-trapped Akademik Shokalskiy, followed by the Chinese ice breaker Xui Long in the Antarctic that Gore needs a new crystal ball among his boy toys. Nor did Gore’s oft-repeated fears of the oceans rising stop him from buying an $8.75 million, ocean front villa in Montecito, California, in 2010. Other facts arguing against the anthropogenic climate change theory include the latest report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the U.N.’s global warming organization, which acknowledges that the Earth’s temperatures haven’t gotten warmer in over 15 years. Additionally, both polar ice caps are growing at near record rates. In fact, some peer-reviewed studies are predicting the earth is about to experience a mini ice age. Look up from your ‘lab’ and out almost any window when you’re ready, Scientist Sharpton. You’ll find that “Baby, it’s cold out there”. The best explanation for climate change doesn’t come from television actors dressed in white lab coats, it comes from recognizing that Mother Nature, like everything else, is a daughter of the Creator.“These right-wingers are boiling over with denial. Just because it snows in winter doesn’t mean the planet isn’t getting warmer. Remember a U.N. Panel said there’s a 90% probability that humans are the primary cause of global warming. And over 97% of climate researchers surveyed in the United States academy of science agrees. It sure doesn’t take much for the folks at fox to hit their melting point. The result of tonight’s experiments are in. And we’ve deduced the right wing could use a new talking point. This has been a special edition of the Politics Nation science lab.“If Mr. Sharpton conducted any research of his own, he would have realized that the 97% of climate researchers poll has been disproved many times over, and that most of the “gloom and doom” predictions made by the global warming theorists have not come true. Even the climate change histrionics one sees in the media after every major storm or fire are wrong, as the frequency of hurricanes, tornados, and wildfires are all way down.”
