More Hope and Change…
Arctic sea ice growth finished the year in 2008 at the same level as 1979.
The oceans have been cooling since 2003.
Antarctic sea ice is growing, not shrinking.
Sea ice is growing at the fastest pace on record.
Greenland’s glaciers are stabilizing.
There are growing fears of a coming freeze worse than the ice age.
Alaskan Sea Glaciers are advancing for the first time in 250 years.
And, for the second straight year the Earth is, in fact, cooling… not warming.
This US Climate Map October 2007-November 2008 showed that temperatures were well below normal throughout the US in 2008.
But, this won’t stop democrats from pushing their junk science…
The UK’s Lord Christopher Monckton, a former science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and a global warming skeptic, was invited to testify to Congress today alongside the Goracle.
But, Al Gore chickened out at the last minute so after his plane landed yesterday in the US Monckton was told he would not be allowed to testify!
Climate Depot reported, via LGF:
UK’s Lord Christopher Monckton, a former science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, claimed House Democrats have refused to allow him to appear alongside former Vice President Al Gore at high profile global warming hearing on Friday April 24, 2009 at 10am in Washington. Monckton told Climate Depot that the Democrats rescinded his scheduled joint appearance at the House Energy and Commerce hearing on Friday. Monckton said he was informed that he would not be allowed to testify alongside Gore when his plane landed from England Thursday afternoon.
“The House Democrats don’t want Gore humiliated, so they slammed the door of the Capitol in my face,” Monckton told Climate Depot in an exclusive interview. “They are cowards.”
According to Monckton, Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas), Ranking Member on the Energy & Commerce Committee, had invited him to go head to head with Gore and testify at the hearing on Capitol Hill Friday. But Monckton now says that when his airplane from London landed in the U.S. on Thursday, he was informed that the former Vice-President had “chickened out” and there would be no joint appearance.
We’re starting to see a pattern here.
Al Gore is afraid to debate his junk science with anyone.
He dodged Czech President Klaus last month at a climate conference.
