Email Evidence We Might Have Slept Through.

A few days before Thanksgiving, a shocking and scandalous story broke out over all the major news outlets. Damning evidence of back door connivance and scheming surrounding a world wide effort to impose laws, restrictions and various forms of economic blood letting on the citizens of the free World came to light.

Didn't hear much about it? Yeah, I didn't either. A blurb in this news publication, a dismissive article in that, and the usual obligatory report that some politicos were demanding investigations. Something about emails and scientists and global warming. Whatever. I've got pre-Thanksgiving shopping to do and where am I going to find the time to dig out all my Christmas decorations?

So some scientists at one of the most prestigious think tanks providing info to the UN and other decision making bodies sent each other emails suggesting that certain data be tampered with or suppressed, or that publications giving that data the credence of print be blackballed. Yeah, I know, nobody used the word, “blackballed”, I'm being illustrative rather than specific. If you want specifics, there are plenty of sources. Iain Murray of Pajamas Media does the quotes and sources thing quite well if you want to check it out.... here. And another good article for basic info here.


What's the big deal? Why should we care?

How sick are you of hearing about Global Warming (now often referred to as "Climate Change" to distract us from all the inconvenient news about dropping average temperatures and our own observations that none of the catastrophes that have been screamingly predicted for years have shown any evidence of occuring) and being nagged about all the things you have to buy, give up or trouble yourself with in order to go "GREEN?"

We're meant to use squiggly light bulbs whether or not we like the quality of light they provide, buy cheaply made "reusable" cloth bags to carry our groceries, spend thousands of extra dollars to buy cars we don't even like the looks of because they get better gas mileage, take showers under special heads that reduce water flow to a miserly mist, subject ourselves to the inconveniences of "mass transit", completely restructure our diet to eat "sustainably" (and more expensively), bundle up in sweaters and hats at home in the Winter and slog sweatily through our living rooms in bathing suits in Summer.

We are nagged constantly by public "service" announcements, news stories, talk show hosts, celebrities, politicos and printed messgages on the products we buy to be "environmentally responsible", to "go Green!", to "recycle" or "reuse."

Well, I am heartily sick of it. Don't get me wrong, I'm against waste. I was raised that way...it used to be called being, "thrifty." I grew up in a household where the plastic bags grocery stores provide to contain vegetables were washed and dried for reuse.

But I have never been a lemming, in fact I have a stubborn streak in me that automatically resists any peer pressure push, be it social, cultural or political. If I am meant to radically change my lifestyle (incrementally or at one go), dig deeper into my pockets to support such changes or accept as the Gospel ideas that are currently in vogue, I want honest information, not manipulation.

As I have watched the "Global Warming" theories grow into hysteria, I have done a bit of research on my own. Made suspicious by the magnitude of economic potential--on the plus side for promoters and the minus side for us poor schmucks who pay the bills--I've paid particular attention to which side is saying what. No surprise, the people and groups who are banging the drum the loudest and threatening the most dire consequences are people and groups that have monetary and power interests involved.

"Big Media" has not been our friend in this. Some might blame political bias, but I think it has more to do with selling ads. When it comes down to it, News is a money making business. "The World Is Going To End!!!!!" (more at 11:00) stories get higher ratings than stories about manipulation and falsification of data that involve lots of dry charts and statistics. Higher ratings sell more ads.

Hence the tepid coverage of the scandal I began this article with, that of emails in which scientists holding positions of great respect and influence lay bear yet more evidence that Anthropogenic (man-made, in case you haven't heard the term yet) Global Warming is a hoax perpetrated on the world by people, organizations and government bodies out to promote their own ends.

Here in America, these interests are pushing "Cap and Trade", the mere mention of which probably makes many Americans yawn. Carbon credits, Big Evil Corporate Polluters, whatever. In a simplistic nutshell, the Big Evil Corporate Polluters (and a lot of not so big, not so evil businesses as well) will have unrealistic and economically punitive standards shoved onto the shoulders of their production capacity, standards that would cripple that capacity. But, it's o.k., because all they have to do is pay graft to "Green" companies (like those Al Gore has invested his fortune in) and then they can pollute as much as they like. Sounds o.k...make those nasty Big Evil Corporate Polluters pay! Except guess who will pay for those "carbon credits?" If you answered the American consumer (you and me) you have earned your Brownie points for the day. Yup. XYZ corporation, that manufactures the whatsits that you buy isn't going to slash corporate pay, apologize to stockholders and install pay toilets in employee restrooms to cover the "Cap and Trade" expenses, they're going to raise the price of your whatsits. And all so that scientists in on the hoax can keep justifying their government funding and politicos can consolidate governmental ability and power to interfere with and control your life and make you pay for the privilege of losing your rights and freedom.

I'm not going to lay out all the documented instances of exagerations, lies, manipulated data, staged photos of forlorn polar bears, and supression of opposing research that I've run across over the years. We live in an internet age, and a Google search or two will provide all the evidence. Yeah, proponents of the ManBadDestroyingWorld mindset will accuse any opposing research or opinion as being "funded by Big Oil", but a bit of actual research will show that the tens of thousands of scientists who are not part of the party-line "consensus" are not bending over for "Big Oil", but screaming in the wilderness of No News Coverage that we're being lied to, manipulated, and led to the Global Warming Altar for slaughter.
