Global Warming

With the release of the latest IPCC paper on climate change, there is increased focus on global warming (not that there was ever any slack). On the news this morning, some S.F. Bay Area public policy official was pointing out that rising sea levels will be problematic he said bay waters had risen 7 inches in the last 100 years. Did you catch that, 7 inches in 100 years. I thought my car was the cause of global warming. If sea levels started rising 100 years ago, then it wasn’t global warming that started the rise. If global warming is causing the sea levels to rise, people aren’t causing global warming. Global warming isn’t science, it’s a political agenda.

The next time someone starts in on global warming, ask them to answer these questions:
• Has the Earth ever gone through warming and cooling periods? If so, what caused them?
• Where does the Earth get its warmth (Sun)? Does that source ever fluctuate?
