Someone has to step up since the prophets of meteorological doom increasingly appear to have egg on their faces.

Just saw Al rowing down the street with two donkeys behind him! :wave:

Look out below: global cooling on the way.

RIA Novosti - Opinion & analysis - A cold spell soon to replace global warming

Stock up on fur coats and felt boots! This is my paradoxical advice to the warm world.

Earth is now at the peak of one of its passing warm spells. It started in the 17th century when there was no industrial influence on the climate to speak of and no such thing as the hothouse effect. The current warming is evidently a natural process and utterly independent of hothouse gases.

The real reasons for climate changes are uneven solar radiation, terrestrial precession (that is, axis gyration), instability of oceanic currents, regular salinity fluctuations of the Arctic Ocean surface waters, etc. There is another, principal reason?solar activity and luminosity. The greater they are the warmer is our climate.

Astrophysics knows two solar activity cycles, of 11 and 200 years. Both are caused by changes in the radius and area of the irradiating solar surface. The latest data, obtained by Habibullah Abdusamatov, head of the Pulkovo Observatory space research laboratory, say that Earth has passed the peak of its warmer period, and a fairly cold spell will set in quite soon, by 2012. Real cold will come when solar activity reaches its minimum, by 2041, and will last for 50-60 years or even longer.

Ahh yes, global warming, I mean global climate change champions, throw another log on the fire and read this piece. I hope your Prius has a good heater:wave:

Their predictions ? based on an analysis of natural cycles in water temperatures in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans ? challenge some of the global warming orthodoxy?s most deeply cherished beliefs, such as the claim that the North Pole will be free of ice in
summer by 2013.

So then beach re nourishment doesn't need to happen as all those glaciers and ice caps will reform. This will pull water from the worlds oceans and lower the level. Voila! Instantly more beach. Of course the question remains who then owns this new beach? Can we do a land grab like the early settlers?

My next car will be electric. Used to have a Prius as a company car at our request. I see conservation as a win win situation. There are many ways that we can help make this a cleaner and better world and find ways to conserve for the future generations. If that's on the agenda for "climate change" then count me in.

It all ends in 2012. :D

I agree, but I don't think saddling ourselves or our future citizenry with (yet more) debt in an effort to combat a boogeyman that increasingly appears to be fanciful is 'conservation'.
