When you consider that a bunch of global warming propagandists, the
19th Conference of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, to
reduce “greenhouse gas” emissions has been meeting in Warsaw this
month are still claiming that we are in the midst of global warming,
you have a demonstration of how great a hoax has been perpetrated on
the peoples of the world. These people and the scientists who supplied
the falsified and inaccurate climate models to support the global
warming claims have committed a criminal fraud.
Bit by bit, the truth in the form of increasingly cold weather is
causing people to wonder whether they are being duped. The media has
either buried the stories of extraordinary cold events or continues to
tip-toe around the truth.
An example is a recent Wall Street Journal article by Robert Lee Hotz,
“Strange Doings on the Sun”, Hotz reported that “Researchers are
puzzled. They can’t tell if the lull is temporary or the onset of a
decades-long decline, which might ease global warming a bit by
altering the sun’s brightness or the wavelengths of its light.”
After describing the fact that the Sun has entered a period of reduced
sunspot activity, always a precursor to a cooling cycle and even an
ice age, Dr. David Hathaway, head of the solar physics group at NASA’s
Marshall Space Flight Center, is quoted as saying “It may give us a
brief respite from global warming, but it is not going to stop it.”
Plainly said, you cannot trust what government scientists have to say
about global warming. The government’s policy since the late 1980s has
been that global warming is real and poses a great threat to the
Earth. What Dr. Hathaway and other “warmists” are desperately trying
to ignore is the fact that the Earth entered a natural and predictable
cooling cycle around 1997 or 1998. It has been cooling ever since!
In 1997 Robert W. Felix authored the definitive book on the coming ice
age in his book, “Not by Fire, but by Ice.” It is still widely
available. His website, IceAgeNow.info provides updated information on
the many weather events around the world that demonstrate an ice
age—whether it is a mini-ice age or a full-scale one—is occurring.
Felix says that a major Ice Age, when it begins, will come on very
swiftly.
One post on Felix’s website is about Victor Emanuel Velasco Herrera, a
geophysicist at the University of Mexico, who predicts that the “Earth
will enter a ‘Little Ice Age’ which will last from 60 to 80 years and
may be caused by the decrease in solar activity.” You don’t have to be
a geophysicist to figure out that less solar activity adds up to a
colder Earth.
2014 is the year many scientists believe an ice age, “mini” or
full-scale will begin. Herrera hedged his prediction saying that “with
the mass production of current carbon dioxide (CO2) it is unlikely
that we will see a major ice age like the one experienced 12,000 years
ago.” Carbon Dioxide plays no role in warming the Earth. It is a very
minor element of the Earth’s atmosphere.
The implications of an ice age, no matter how long or short, is its
impact on the growing of crops to feed everyone. Dr. Tim Patterson of
Canada’s Carleton University’s Department of Earth Sciences, in a May
18, 2007 article in the Calgary Times, wrote that satellite data
“shows that by the year 2020 the next solar cycle is going to be solar
cycle 25—the weakest one since the Little Ice Age (that started in the
13th century and ended around 1860)…should be a great strategic
concern in Canada because nobody is farming north of us. In other
words, Canada—the great breadbasket of the world—might not be able to
grow grains in much of the prairies.” This prediction applies as well,
of course, to the U.S. production of grains.
Other scientists have been sounding the alarm, predicting dramatic
cooling to begin in the current decade. Dr. Oleg Sorokhtin, a Fellow
of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, has noted 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.” While the years cited by scientists may differ, they are in
agreement that we are looking at decades of cold.
In the years since the late 1980s when “global warming” was unleashed
on the world as the greatest hoax of the modern era, billions have
come to believe the Earth was threatened by greater warming cause by
man-made “greenhouse gases” resulting from industrial and all other
uses of fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas. While carbon dioxide
has, indeed, increased in the atmosphere, the truth is that the Earth
has entered a cooling cycle and that it is on the cusp of very cold
weather for decades. We could even cross over into a full-fledged Ice
Age because one is overdue at this point in time.
You cannot depend on what the mass media tells you. They are hardwired
to continue the global warming hoax. You can, however, educate
yourself with books such as Robert Felix’s. You can use Google to find
out more about ice ages. You can and should prepare yourself for
changes in the Earth’s climate that will have vast impacts on the
global economy and on the ability to grow enough crops to feed the
world’s population. – Eurasia Review
