A Change in the Weather?

Posted by Greybeard on Jan 20th, 2009 in News and weather, Technology and Music | Comments Off

Low average temperature here over the last 6 days,  MINUS 1.5 degrees.

Finding something else to do other than watch the “Coronation” on the boob-tube,  I wound up reading through the Feb. 2009 Field and Stream magazine.  Specifically the Article by Mark T. Sullivan,  “A Change in the Weather”.  This article prompted me to write the following email to the editors of Field and Stream.

“I’ve just finished reading the “A Change in the Weather” article in the Feb. 2009 issue of Field and Stream.

I’m very dissapointed to learn that Field and Stream seems to have bought into the hype, hook line and sinker.  This article tends to indicate I should question other articles I find in  Field and Stream.

I’m not a professional researcher,  but I do spend a lot of time looking at issues that pique my interest,  and those that directly affect me.   When it comes to Global Warming,  I get enough “pro-Global Warming” info from the broadcast media and the newspapers,  so a lot of my G-W research is geared toward the debunking of the myth.  (to balance my thoughts on the idea)   Not being a professional or getting paid to do it,  I usually don’t document my findings,  I use them soley to form my personal opinions.

I have no trouble what so ever finding huge amounts of documents, written by highly knowledgable people,  that feel the Global Warming issue is basically a huge MYTH, (possibly evented as a funds generating source).

Back to the article,  “2007,  the hottest year since 1880“,   I’ve read multple scientific studies to debunk this statement.   “Ice core samples showing the Earth’s carbon dioxide levels higher than in the last 650,000 years“   come on now,  I remember evidence to debunk that statement from way back in my elementary school history classes,  not to mention the study of ice core sample I read about,  that proved the Earth goes through very long cycles of heating and cooling.

“The preponderance of scientists now agreeing that climate change is real and acellerating at an alarming rate“,   The way I’ve heard it,  every day,  more and more scientists swap sides,  and at a U.N. event this year concerning Global warming,  the believer’s were in the 10’s while the debunkers,  were in the 100’s.

The majority of the article was the typical “Doom and Gloom” spread by the majority of media that support the idea and very little about what could be done to prevent these supposed trageties. (with a hunting/fishing twist)  In my personal experience so far, this winter has been the coldest one in quite a few years.   (The average low here in northern Michigan, over the last 6 days,  has worked out to minus 1.5 degrees,  (and a failed United Nations proposal to inject thousands of pounds of chemicals and tiny mirrors into the Atmosphere,  could have lowered that average to minus 30 degrees!!!!!).

All things considered,  I didn’t exactly feel that Mark T. Sullivans article,  “A Change in the Weather” , was a stellar piece of reporting.
