John Coleman, Founder of Weather Channel - Global warming a scam

Of course it is a scam. For the last five or six thousand years (at least) the earth has gone through warming and cooling trends all while supporting life, and we have that in recorded history.

What is not in recorded history is any weather patterns further back than about two hundred years ago.

Anything that points to "global warming" and uses evidence outside of the two hundred or so year record keeping events is using something called "circular reasoning" see the movie Idiocracy.

Why do plants crave Brondo?

Because it's got electrolites.

What are electrolites?

That's what is in Brondo.

Why don't we just try giving the plants water?

You mean like out of the toilet?

Well, it doesn't have to be out of the toilet.

I don't understand, because plants crave Brondo.

Get it???? me either. Some folks do. And that my friend is called "Algoraphobia" it's the mind dope that econazis are pushing.

The EPA allows big business to pump harmful emissions into the environment and should really be called "The Big Polluters Protection Agency" because the EPA is a safety net preventing average folks like us from bringing suit against those same companies that the EPA "monitors".

Wow, with no EPA I could sue the polluters that live down the road from me and they would have to stop. However with the EPA, I have to be told what to breathe and told "it really isn't that harmful at these -safe- levels".

Big Brother isn't your friend and cares nothing about protecting you, instead he wants to kick your butt and take all of your lunch money, While you breathe his smoggy air!

Didn't Al Gore bravely claimed to have invented the Internet? Same Al Gore is now claiming he understands Global Warming?

This isnt about politics.

Anyone who believes a "weather man" / TV personality over a scientist is sorely misguiding themselves. This guy was booted from the Weather Channel after one year...

Numbers dont lie... you should just stop trying to make this real science seem to have something to do with Al Gore. Al Gore is on this subject because the scientists are making such a big deal out of it ... not the other way around.

If any of you would take the time to look at the actual charts yourselves you will see that indeed the world is getting hotter... and JUST at the moment it is getting hotter we are dumping huge amounts of green house gases into the atmosphere ... it would be stupid of us not to see that we could tip the scales on this planet.

Remember that the earth has gone through cycles before that humanity could not survive... are we going to risk pushing earth into such a situation again?

I used to watch him as a kid in Chicago too, he was great (tho Tom Skilling is pretty awesome too). Re: Man-made global warming, there was a brilliant documentary up on Google, don't know if it's still up, "The Great Global Warming Swindle," made in England, which put all the science (and pseudo-science) together in a terrifically clear and compelling way.

here's the truth dude.

global warming is a scam, yes it's happening and here's why and how.

fact: planets and the moon's gravity effects the earth. the tides prove that.

fact: most planets are on the outside of the earths / sun orbit.
fact: it takes them planets longer to orbit the sun.

fact: when the majority of the planets are in the orbit and are away from the sun and earth, the earth rotates the sun in a circular orbit. this allows lots of sun to warm the earth.

fact: when the majority of the planets and moons are near the sun and earth, it has a pulling effect on our orbit. it causes us to go into an elipical orbit, in 1 phase we are close to the sun

fact: and in the other phase of the orbt we're farther away from the sun because of the elongating of the earths orbit giving us less sun exposure.

this cycle causes warming and cooling in 10,000 yr cycles.

we are now in the phase where the large planets and their moons are aproaching the furthest point in their orbit around the sun,

in 2012 all the planets will line up, the last time it did this was 6000 yrs ago, they are all alomst at the furthest point from the sun and earth.

this has a lessening effect of their gravity pulling on the earth and we are in a circular orbit causeing more sun exposure and thus warmer sun temps.

increases in co2 preceed this warming, increases in o2 proceed the cooling.

co2 levels are rising, the temps are rising, because no planets are pulling us away from the sun.

it's supposed to happen this way.

6000 yrs from now the gov will say increased o2 production is cooling the earth, the polar ice caps will grow the sea levels will fall and o2 will increase.

when co increases it turbo charges the eco system, plants go crazy and produce more o2

when o2 increases the animals get bigger and healthyer, so will humans.

GLOBAL WARMING IS A SCAM.

mark my words, this is the truth and you will hear more about it as people wake up to reality.

global warming scam is to pass a carbon tax to fund world government and nothing more.

and a few other planets...so tax me so the UN can finance it's nefarious agendas.

Jeez, yes the globe is warming...so are the others...could there POSSIBLY be another explanation? I'm with worrying about a ship breaking up in my oceans and dumping oil into the environment relied upon by myself and my fellow earth creatures...

"I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles

Alright guys - get off the internet and go campaigning

Peace

You are free to believe what you want to - If you truly believe that global warming exists - then you need to practice what you preach - do not buy anything that is made from petro-chemicals, do not drive a car, do not fly in an airplane - I see nobody doing this, they just want to force people under threat of gun point or tazer or whatever to abide by these crazy environmental laws. Ron Paul is the best candidate on the majority of the issues - you can be assured if there is an environmental problem that Ron Paul being the completely honest candidate that he is, will work to resolve it. But if Ron Paul supporters want to switch to Edwards, Clinton whoever because they think Ron Paul is not tough enough on saving the environment then they are sadly mistaken. If there is one person you can believe on the environment it is Ron Paul because of his honesty - if he finds out something needs serious attention because of catastrophic consequences then you know he will address it.

I am an environmentalist - I believe in saving rain forest, saving animal
species, green building, sustainable construction, environmentally friendly products etc. Do I believe in finding alternative forms of fuels - yes, do I believe we need to conserve - yes. Do I think we should tell someone to stop driving their SUV - no. Do I think we should tell people they can no longer eat meat or use toilet paper - no.

I think global warming is unstoppable until the next ice age, what concerns me more is when a Russian oil tanker cracks open in the Black Sea pouring out millions of gallons of oil creating an ecological catastrophe. That could be prevented, oil in San Francisco bay can be prevented - global warming cannot.

I started a restaurant business that has a very low carbon foot print, we use PLA plastic for all of our cups and bowls, we use organic produce thats helps the environment to be free from pestacides and chemicals. I am doing my part-

http://www.toss-across.co...

global warming in my opinion is a money created myth.

Yes, this is all true. However, what is you goal? To get Ron Paul elected or to prove Global warming is a scam? You are hurting votes for Ron Paul with this no matter how true it is.

When those who believe in Global warming hear this stuff they just plug their ears, and say , oh - another conservative global warming denier. This is going to be the BIG attack issue and fear mongering issue. If you want to win then post this stuff in a global warming group and not a RP group.

THIS IS HURTING AND NOT HELPING!!!

The fact is that Ron PAuls energy policy is the best policy for those who are concerned about the enviorment and global warming.

YOU WILL NOT CONVERT THEM NO HOW MANY EXPERTS AND STUDIES YOU SHOW THEM.

IF YOU WANT RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR ` THE TRUTH.
RON PAUL ENERGY POLICY IS THE MOST GREEN ENERGY POLICY OF ALL CANDIDATES AND WILL DO MORE TO CURB OUR GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS THAN ANY OTHER CANDIDATE.

Move over Al Gore

Ron Pauls Energy Policy of legalizing industrial Hemp. IS THE BIGGEST THING ANY PRESIDENT COULD DO FOR GLOBAL WARMING.

Hemp for Victory
A global warming solution.. http://youtube.com/watch?......

HEMP IS 5 TIMES MORE EFFICIENT THAN CORN IN MAKING ETHANOL AND BECAUSE OF ITS SPECIAL PROPERTIES THE ENTIRE PROCESS OF MAKING ETHANOL AND BURINING IT REMOVES 1 CARBON ATOM FROM THE ATMOSPHERE.

Furthermore, Hemp is a very important Crop for many other reasons enviormentally. I'm sure you know about the 2,200 that died in Bangladesh and the other Bangladesh problems in the past with flooding.

The main culprit is SOIL ERROISION FROM DESTRUCTION OF THE NATURAL HEMP THAT HAS GROWN THERE FOR MILLINIA
Hemp, requires no herbicides and chokes out weeds and requires little pesticides. Be aware that America has lost 50% of its topsoil since the destruction of the Ferral hemp that used to cover our country and the outlawing of farming hemp. Now we have to continually used fertilizers to grow crops that have less nutrition because the soil is DEAD.

FARMS through HERBICIDES AND PESTICIDES ARE THE #1 POLLUTER OF OUR WATER.

IF the DEA would let those states that have industrial hemp farming bills actually grow it , we could be free of mid -east oil and significantly cut our CO2 emmissions.

1 acre of hemp can replace 20 acres of trees for paper pulp.

Go to Abovetheignorance.org and find out the truth why hemp was outlawed! Henry Ford built the car to run on ethanol from hemp. JP morgan and Du-pont wanted it outlawed to sell oil.

Hemp also burns very hot and in WW2 was used as a replacement for coal in making energy. Hemp is truly a wonder plant.

Hemp has thousands of industrial uses that replaces Crude Oil product in all of them. From Bio-Degradable plastics to paints and oils. Henry Ford even buit a car almost completely out of Hemp! (chich and chong just copied it. l.o.l.) http://youtube.com/watch?......
and http://youtube.com/watch?......

The seeds are the most complete form of protein on the earth and have been a important feed grain through history. (Gruel ~ is boiled hemp seeds fyi) EATING HEMP SEEDS IS A CURE FOR ED. If you buy hemp protien powder and take it be prepared for a woody. Hemp has been praised in the Kama Sutra as a aphrodesiac. Hemp Seed Protien IS. Natural Viagra

Not to mention the more potent hemp, (THC) is proven to cure 3 types of cancer and re-generate nerve cells (which was previously thought impossible.)

This is just the tip of the iceburg on Hemp and the real reason it was outlawed.

Global Warming will be used as a way to take away your freedom while the entire time they outlaw the solution.

RON PAUL IS THE ONLY CANDIDATE WHO HAS A VIABLE SOLUTION.

Marijuana does NOT pose a threat to the general public. Marijuana is very much a danger to the oil companies, alcohol, tobacco industries and a large number of chemical corporations. Various big businesses, with plenty of dollars and influence, have suppressed the truth from the people.

The truth is if marijuana was utilized for its vast array of commercial products, it would create an industrial atomic bomb! Entrepreneurs have not been educated on the product potential of pot. The super rich have conspired to spread misinformation about an extremely versatile plant that, if used properly, would ruin their companies.

Where did the word 'marijuana' come from? In the mid 1930s, the M-word was created to tarnish the good image and phenomenal history of the hemp plant...as you will read. The facts cited here, with references, are generally verifiable in the Encyclopedia Britannica which was printed on hemp paper for 150 years:

• All schoolbooks were made from hemp or flax paper until the 1880s; Hemp Paper Reconsidered, Jack Frazier, 1974.

• It was LEGAL TO PAY TAXES WITH HEMP in America from 1631 until the early 1800s; LA Times, Aug. 12, 1981.

• REFUSING TO GROW HEMP in America during the 17th and 18th Centuries WAS AGAINST THE LAW! You could be jailed in Virginia for refusing to grow hemp from 1763 to 1769; Hemp in Colonial Virginia, G. M. Herdon.

• George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and other founding fathers GREW HEMP; Washington and Jefferson Diaries. Jefferson smuggled hemp seeds from China to France then to America.

• Benjamin Franklin owned one of the first paper mills in America and it processed hemp. Also, the War of 1812 was fought over hemp. Napoleon wanted to cut off Moscow's export to England; Emperor Wears No Clothes, Jack Herer.

• For thousands of years, 90% of all ships' sails and rope were made from hemp. The word 'canvas' is Dutch for cannabis; Webster's New World Dictionary.

• 80% of all textiles, fabrics, clothes, linen, drapes, bed sheets, etc. were made from hemp until the 1820s with the introduction of the cotton gin.

• The first Bibles, maps, charts, Betsy Ross's flag, the first drafts of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were made from hemp; U.S. Government Archives.

• The first crop grown in many states was hemp. 1850 was a peak year for Kentucky producing 40,000 tons. Hemp was the largest cash crop until the 20th Century; State Archives.

• Oldest known records of hemp farming go back 5000 years in China, although hemp industrialization probably goes back to ancient Egypt.

• Rembrants, Gainsboroughs, Van Goghs as well as most early canvas paintings were principally painted on hemp linen.

• In 1916, the U.S. Government predicted that by the 1940s all paper would come from hemp and that no more trees need to be cut down. Government studies report that 1 acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of trees. Plans were in the works to implement such programs; Department of Agriculture

• Quality paints and varnishes were made from hemp seed oil until 1937. 58,000 tons of hemp seeds were used in America for paint products in 1935; Sherman Williams Paint Co. testimony before Congress against the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act.

• Henry Ford's first Model-T was built to run on hemp gasoline and the CAR ITSELF WAS CONTRUCTED FROM HEMP! On his large estate, Ford was photographed among his hemp fields. The car, 'grown from the soil,' had hemp plastic panels whose impact strength was 10 times stronger than steel; Popular Mechanics, 1941.

• Hemp called 'Billion Dollar Crop.' It was the first time a cash crop had a business potential to exceed a billion dollars; Popular Mechanics, Feb., 1938.

• Mechanical Engineering Magazine (Feb. 1938) published an article entitled 'The Most Profitable and Desirable Crop that Can be Grown.' It stated that if hemp was cultivated using 20th Century technology, it would be the single largest agricultural crop in the U.S. and the rest of the world.

The following information comes directly from the United States Department of Agriculture's 1942 14-minute film encouraging and instructing 'patriotic American farmers' to grow 350,000 acres of hemp each year for the war effort:

'...(When) Grecian temples were new, hemp was already old in the service of mankind. For thousands of years, even then, this plant had been grown for cordage and cloth in China and elsewhere in the East. For centuries prior to about 1850, all the ships that sailed the western seas were rigged with hempen rope and sails. For the sailor, no less than the hangman, hemp was indispensable...

...Now with Philippine and East Indian sources of hemp in the hands of the Japanese...American hemp must meet the needs of our Army and Navy as well as of our industries...

...the Navy's rapidly dwindling reserves. When that is gone, American hemp will go on duty again; hemp for mooring ships; hemp for tow lines; hemp for tackle and gear; hemp for countless naval uses both on ship and shore. Just as in the days when Old Ironsides sailed the seas victorious with her hempen shrouds and hempen sails. Hemp for victory!'

Certified proof from the Library of Congress; found by the research of Jack Herer, refuting claims of other government agencies that the 1942 USDA film 'Hemp for Victory' did not exist.

Hemp cultivation and production do not harm the environment. The USDA Bulletin #404 concluded that Hemphemp produces 4 times as much pulp with at least 4 to 7 times less pollution. From Popular Mechanics, Feb. 1938:

'It has a short growing season...It can be grown in any state...The long roots penetrate and break the soil to leave it in perfect condition for the next year's crop. The dense shock of leaves, 8 to 12 feet above the ground, chokes out weeds.
...hemp, this new crop can add immeasurably to American agriculture and industry.'

In the 1930s, innovations in farm machinery would have caused an industrial revolution when applied to hemp. This single resource could have created millions of new jobs generating thousands of quality products. Hemp, if not made illegal, would have brought America out of the Great Depression.

William Randolph Hearst (Citizen Kane) and the Hearst Paper Manufacturing Division of Kimberly Clark owned vast acreage of timberlands. The Hearst Company supplied most paper products. Patty Hearst's grandfather, a destroyer of nature for his own personal profit, stood to lose billions because of hemp.

In 1937, Dupont patented the processes to make plastics from oil and coal. Dupont's Annual Report urged stockholders to invest in its new petrochemical division. Synthetics such as plastics, cellophane, celluloid, methanol, nylon, rayon, Dacron, etc., could now be made from oil. Natural hemp industrialization would have ruined over 80% of Dupont's business.

THE CONSPIRACY

Andrew Mellon became Hoover's Secretary of the Treasury and Dupont's primary investor. He appointed his future nephew-in-law, Harry J. Anslinger, to head the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.

Secret meetings were held by these financial tycoons. Hemp was declared dangerous and a threat to their billion dollar enterprises. For their dynasties to remain intact, hemp had to go. These men took an obscure Mexican slang word: 'marihuana' and pushed it into the consciousness of America.

MEDIA MANIPULATION

A media blitz of 'yellow journalism' raged in the late 1920s and 1930s. Hearst's newspapers ran stories emphasizing the horrors of marihuana. The menace of marihuana made headlines. Readers learned that it was responsible for everything from car accidents to loose morality.

Films like 'Reefer Madness' (1936), 'Marihuana: Assassin of Youth' (1935) and 'Marihuana: The Devil's Weed' (1936) were propaganda designed by these industrialists to create an enemy. Their purpose was to gain public support so that anti-marihuana laws could be passed.

Examine the following quotes from 'The Burning Question' aka REEFER MADNESS:

• a violent narcotic.
• acts of shocking violence.
• incurable insanity.
• soul-destroying effects.
• under the influence of the drug he killed his entire family with an ax.
• more vicious, more deadly even than these soul-destroying drugs (heroin, cocaine) is the menace of marihuana!

Reefer Madness did not end with the usual 'the end.' The film concluded with these words plastered on the screen: TELL YOUR CHILDREN.

In the 1930s, people were very naive; even to the point of ignorance. The masses were like sheep waiting to be led by the few in power. They did not challenge authority. If the news was in print or on the radio, they believed it had to be true. They told their children and their children grew up to be the parents of the baby-boomers.

On April 14, 1937, the Prohibitive Marihuana Tax Law or the bill that outlawed hemp was directly brought to the House Ways and Means Committee. This committee is the only one that can introduce a bill to the House floor without it being debated by other committees. The Chairman of the Ways and Means, Robert Doughton, was a Dupont supporter. He insured that the bill would pass Congress.

Dr. James Woodward, a physician and attorney, testified too late on behalf of the American Medical Association. He told the committee that the reason the AMA had not denounced the Marihuana Tax Law sooner was that the Association had just discovered that marihuana was hemp.

Few people, at the time, realized that the deadly menace they had been reading about on Hearst's front pages was in fact passive hemp. The AMA understood cannabis to be a MEDICINE found in numerous healing products sold over the last hundred years.

In September of 1937, hemp became illegal. The most useful crop known became a drug and our planet has been suffering ever since.

Congress banned hemp because it was said to be the most violence-causing drug known. Anslinger, head of the Drug Commission for 31 years, promoted the idea that marihuana made users act extremely violent. In the 1950s, under the Communist threat of McCarthyism, Anslinger now said the exact opposite. Marijuana will pacify you so much that soldiers would not want to fight.

Today, our planet is in desperate trouble. Earth is suffocating as large tracts of rain forests disappear. Pollution, poisons and chemicals are killing people. These great problems could be reversed if we industrialized hemp. Natural biomass could provide all of the planet's energy needs that are currently supplied by fossil fuels. We have consumed 80% of our oil and gas reserves. We need a renewable resource. Hemp could be the solution to soaring gas prices.

HEMP THE WONDER PLANT

Hemp has a higher quality fiber than wood fiber. Far fewer caustic chemicals are required to make paper from hemp than from trees. Hemp paper does not turn yellow and is very durable. The plant grows quickly to maturity in a season where trees take a lifetime.

ALL PLASTIC PRODUCTS SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP SEED OIL. Hempen plastics are biodegradable! Over time, they would break down and not harm the environment. Oil-based plastics, the ones we are very familiar with, help ruin nature; they do not break down and will do great harm in the future. The process to produce the vast array of natural (hempen) plastics will not ruin the rivers as Dupont and other petrochemical companies have done. Ecology does not fit in with the plans of the Oil Industry and the political machine. Hemp products are safe and natural.

MEDICINES SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP. We should go back to the days when the AMA supported cannabis cures. 'Medical Marijuana' is given out legally to only a handful of people while the rest of us are forced into a system that relies on chemicals. Pot is only healthy for the human body.

WORLD HUNGER COULD END. A large variety of food products can be generated from hemp. The seeds contain one of the highest sources of protein in nature. ALSO: They have two essential fatty acids that clean your body of cholesterol. These essential fatty acids are not found anywhere else in nature! Consuming pot seeds is the best thing you could do for your body. Eat uncooked hemp seeds.

CLOTHES SHOULD BE MADE FROM HEMP. Hemp clothing is extremely strong and durable over time. You could hand clothing, made from pot, down to your grandchildren. Today, there are American companies that make hemp clothing; usually 50% hemp. Hemp fabrics should be everywhere. Instead, they are almost underground. Superior hemp products are not allowed to advertise on fascist television. Kentucky, once the top hemp producing state, made it ILLEGAL TO WEAR hemp clothing! Can you imagine being thrown into jail for wearing quality jeans?

The liquor, tobacco and oil companies fund more than a million dollars a day to Partnership for a Drug-Free America and other similar agencies. We have all seen their commercials. Now, their motto is: ‘It's more dangerous than we thought.’ Lies from the powerful corporations, that began with Hearst, are still alive and well today.

…HEMP IS ILLEGAL BECAUSE BILLIONAIRES WANT TO REMAINE BILLIONAIRS!!

Global warming is accepted science. Ron Paul has publicly stated that he agrees that global warming is truth.

That global warming is largely of human origin is NOT controversial, neither need it be. The controversy is over what to DO about it.

There has NOT been conclusive evidence that mortality and morbidity will be significantly stemmed by even a radical departure from current business practices at this point.

Aligning Ron Paul's cause with creationistesque fringe scientific factions does NOT help anyone but our enemies.

Good stuff

C'mon people obviously the earth is in a warming cycle - this is not the first time this has happened and it won't be the last. We will also head into a ice age cycle after that - it will go back and forth - in between you will get mini ice-ages and mini hot-house ages. Do you really believe the earth will stay the same forever? Your fooling yourself its in a constant state of change - its a living planet.

http://www.sciencenews.or...

"If Earth was so prone to freezing in Neoproterozoic times, why haven't total ice ages engulfed the planet anytime since then? Hoffman's team suggests that several key factors have prevented this frigid fate.

The sun deserves some credit, having grown steadily stronger since the Neoproterozoic. Worms have also provided some defense since their appearance in the late Precambrian. As they churn through seafloor sediments, worms liberate carbon that would otherwise remain buried, keeping atmospheric carbon dioxide at comfortable concentrations."
