"Stranded Polar Bears" Global Warming Hoax Exposed
The Associated Press published the photo two years after it was taken. The image was snapped in August, a time when polar icecaps naturally melt and the wider shot would have shown that the bears were near land mass. Oh yeah, and polar bears can swim! All this didn't stop Al Gore from using the photo as emotional propaganda to support his case.
Well, we had a warm summer here in the United States, and that brought some of the climate change alarmists out again. Looks like it’s time for another rebuttal!
John Coleman, the founder of The Weather Channel, and various other critics have called the theory that human use of carbon-based fossil fuels will lead to catastrophic global warming or climate change a “hoax.” It is, but it’s more than that, it’s criminal.
Here are some of the scientific questions at the core of this issue:
Is the climate changing? Of course. The climate always has changed and always will.
Is the earth getting warmer? We should hope so for at least two reasons: First, the world emerged from the Little Ice Age in the 19th century, so it would be worrisome if it weren’t getting warmer. Second, all the history indicates that humans thrive more during warmer periods than colder ones. It is likely, though, that earth has warmed less than many official temperature records indicate for a variety of reasons, including: few long-term records from either the southern hemisphere or the 71 percent of the planet that is covered by water; distortions from the urban heat-island effect and other faulty siting (e.g., temperature sensors next to asphalt parking lots, etc.; the decline in weather station reports from Siberia after the fall of the Soviet government; the arbitrarily ceasing to include measurements from northern latitudes and high elevations, etc.) The most accurate measures of temperature come from satellites. Since the start of these measurements in 1979, they show minor fluctuations and an insignificant net change in global temperature
There has been a 60 per cent increase in the amount of ocean covered with ice compared to this time last year, they equivalent of almost a million square miles.
In a rebound from 2012's record low an unbroken ice sheet more than half the size of Europe already stretches from the Canadian islands to Russia's northern shores, days before the annual re-freeze is even set to begin.
The Northwest Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific has remained blocked by pack-ice all year, forcing some ships to change their routes.
A leaked report to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) seen by the Mail on Sunday, has led some scientists to claim that the world is heading for a period of cooling that will not end until the middle of this century.
If correct, it would contradict computer forecasts of imminent catastrophic warming. The news comes several years after the BBC predicted that the arctic would be ice-free by 2013.
Some eminent scientists now believe the world is heading for a period of cooling that will not end until the middle of this century – a process that would expose computer forecasts of imminent catastrophic warming as dangerously misleading.

No it was not, it was a tropical storm..................But the Left Wing Progressive "Man made Global Warming" cheerleader media called it "Super Storm Sandy" and hyped the crap out of for the sheeple like yourself
edit: i see that i am extremely late on this - Crimsoninja
According to High Priest Al Gore and the IPCC, their predictions based on computer models and the "settled science"..........there were susposed to be record numbers of Hurricanes over the past decade, the Arctic was to be virtually ice free this past summer................and now none of these iron clad predictions have been proven to be what they really were......................HOAXES to coax more tax dollars out of our pockets on the premise the world was going to DIE DIE DIE DIE!!!!

thank god we've been doing something to prevent these catastrophes!

You did not watch it, otherwise you'd see the obvious made up BS he spewed to the world, and all the little sheeple made him a rich rich man. - Doppleganger
by refusing to read racist posts? c'mon - the_cause2000
With you it's always "no value added". Sucks when you a have nothing to bring to the table except minor league insults................really enhances your image here eh?

ridiculously overstated one-sided points and deflection are much better.

I have my point of view, and back it up with supporting articles and websites, perhaps if you had something to contradict my points, then you'd provide the "other side" that you seem to be yearning for.

again, i don't care about your points. nobody does. but if you want anybody to you need to stop being such a retard.
also, you're in no position to talk. crims said something to you yesterday (i don't remember what it was) and you responded with gibberish that had little to nothing to do with his post just to respond and feel like you said something (which is your typical behavior).
you deflect even more poorly than the rest of your "side".
Al Gore descended to earth to warn mankind. And to make a few bucks in the process.
Hard to believe, but it was a mere six years ago the Goracle descended from on high to warn mankind that global warming would inevitably lead to more hurricanes and stronger hurricanes.
He foresaw nothing but death and destruction and a little more jingly in his pocket.
CommonDreams.org quotes the Goracle back in 2005:
… the science is extremely clear now, that warmer oceans make the average hurricane stronger, not only makes the winds stronger, but dramatically increases the moisture from the oceans evaporating into the storm – thus magnifying its destructive power – makes the duration, as well as the intensity of the hurricane, stronger.
Last year we had a lot of hurricanes. Last year, Japan set an all-time record for typhoons: ten, the previous record was seven. Last year the science textbooks had to be re-written. They said, “It’s impossible to have a hurricane in the south Atlantic.” We had the first one last year, in Brazil. We had an all-time record last year for tornadoes in the United States, 1,717 – largely because hurricanes spawned tornadoes.
Don’t look now, Al, but Anthony Watts reports that your prediction was about 180 degrees off. Hurricane activity is now near an all-time low.
During the past 6-years since Hurricane Katrina, global tropical cyclone frequency and energy have decreased dramatically, and are currently at near-historical record lows. According to a new peer-reviewed research paper accepted to be published, only 69 tropical storms were observed globally during 2010, the fewest in almost 40-years of reliable records.
Furthermore, when each storm’s intensity and duration were taken into account, the total global tropical cyclone accumulated energy (ACE) was found to have fallen by half to the lowest level since 1977.http://www.ihatethemedia....his-hurricane-predictions
Ocean temps have risen, and hurricane frequency has dropped off the map, the exact opposite of what Al Gore fed the Sheeple in his HOAX movie.
