There are a lot of things that are in the world today that are right. Wars are going on in the world, Africa is a mostly poor nation, and Global Warming exists. What was that last one, Global Warming exists? Yes, but not to the extent that the United States government and the media want 你 to believe. Now you’re probably thinking, why would the US government tell such a lie. Why would they get some of the 最佳, 返回页首 rated scientists in the world to agree with them, and why are there not 更多 scientist speaking out about this elaborate hoax. This 文章 will explain the reason why Global Warming is happening, and why the truth that is 更多 convenient than 你 might think.

Is the Earth heating up? (See image at bottom)

Yes it is true the earth is heating up, but it is 由 no fault of our own. When traced back to our earth’s history 你 can see that the earth has had a lot of periods in its history where it has been either hot 或者 cold. The earth is also like a volcano, and every hundreds of years it goes in either the hot 或者 cold direction. In this case this is just a time when it is getting hotter, and when looked back even further, 你 can see that we are long overdue for a long hot spell. The last time we had a hot spell like this was in the Medieval Times, when the temperature was higher than it is today. This hot spell lasted almost 500 years, and as pictures from back then have proved there were no industrial plants back then. Now on this chart to the right 你 also see something called the Little Ice Age. This was a time around 1650 and 1730 when the world was abnormally cold. This also shows the fluctuation the temperature takes. So yes it might be hot now, but in the short future who knows, we may be entering another Little Ice Age.

Are the industrial world and our carbon dioxide emissions to blame for this heat up? (See Image at bottom)

This is one of the biggest lies of Global Warming. Now granted there are a lot 更多 carbon dioxides going into the air than usual, but they are not causing the heat up. If 你 look at the map of the world’s temperature between 1860 and 1999, 你 will see that the earth is getting hotter, but history can prove that it is not the economy to be blamed.
Around 1910 the temperature was low, but after that it rose very high. The problem with this is that during this time the world had its lowest industrial activity in over 80 years, but around 1945 the temperature started getting lower and was hovering around the normal to cold rate until around 1975. What was special about this time was that this point in time between 1946 and 1959 was known for something, the Economic Boom. So how can carbon dioxides be causing Global Warming if it got warmer during the low economic times and colder during one of the highest economic times? It does not make sense.

Should we reduce our carbon dioxide emissions?

People can reduce their carbon emissions, but it will not help stop Global Warming. The one thing it would do is clean out your wallet. In order for the government to fully extinguish carbon dioxide emissions it would cost the people in both Canada and the United States $92,000 combined. That’s $42,000 in Canada alone. Now granted humans are causing carbon emissions, but if our carbon emissions were compared to other sources, and all our factories will only equal 10% of the carbon dioxides emissions per year, and that’s all the humans and factories in the world. When filed down to just 1 person it equals about 0.99999999999% 或者 less. The 3 highest carbon dioxide contributors per 年 are volcanoes, leafs, and the ocean. That’s right, the leaf trees outside our window, and the ocean that consumes most of our world. So if Al Gore wants to stop all the carbon dioxide emissions he will have to carefully destroy every active volcano, carefully destroy every leaf like tree, somehow drain the ocean, destroy every factory, and then get everyone in the world to stop breathing. An impossible task.

Why are the Polar Icecaps melting?

The reason why the Polar Icecaps are melting is due to the shift in the climate not caused 由 Global Warming. Since the Poles were formed they have shifted from very cold, to mild. If looked at a video simulation of the Poles, 你 can see that it has shifted from glaciers stretching down into Norway, to the north and south poles ice looking smaller than they are today. As for the ice flows breaking off the glaciers and floating out to sea, that is as normal in the Arctic’s as the 草 growing on a lawn. The media is just portraying this as a bad event to increase the fear of Global Warming. If 你 look a different news reports 你 will see that the footage they use is the same exact footage every time. I can bet that the glaciers will be fine and will survive this heat spell, 或者 “Global Warming” as it is called.

Can the flooding of places like Florida, and New York City really happen?

This very thought of the flooding of major cities makes me laugh. Out of all the bad things about Global Warming to happen, this is the most farfetched. Even if the Polar Ice 锦标 melted completely they still would not generate enough water to flood the places Al Gore mentioned in his movie. What Al Gore failed to mention is that if the 锦标 melt in the south most of the water will be sucked into the ground, and as for the north, well 更多 water will land into the ocean, but not enough to cause global flooding. At worse 1 area in the world may have to put up a floodwall. Another thing that Al Gore failed to mention was that when it gets warmer not only does the ocean expand but the land rises as well. This terminology stretches back to the Ice Age when the weight of the ice pushes down the land. It will not be noticeable, but neither will the water rising as fast as Al Gore has said.

Should we still pursue different options for electricity like using solar, and wind power?

In this 问题 你 would have bet that I would have 说 yes. It helps the environment, and most likely costs less. This is a common misconception. If 你 were to get rid of all of the non wind and solar power in your house, 你 would only have enough power to work about 2 electronics devices in your house. For example, if 你 were running solar and wind power in one room of your 首页 and this room contained lights, a computer, and a television, 你 would only be able to power 2 of them. As for saving money, if 你 were to put the cost of electrical power to the cost of solar power, with installation it would cost $20,000 extra. Including wind power that price soars to $40,000. This is not including fixing after a storm, as the tiles on the solar pad can break easily, and the wind fans, if the wind is too hard can break too.
However, there is a larger consequence to our need to not use electrical, coal, and oil power, and this does not affect us. It effect’s the many poverty stricken nations of Africa. Africa is a third world nation, which means that most of, if not all the nations there are poor. The one thing that they can take solace in is that maybe one 日 they will catch up to us. This is known in Africa as The African Dream, but if we allow things like electrical power to go away for other costly power sources like solar and wind power, they may never get where we are today, and have what every human being should have, power.

So, if Global Warming is a lie, then why would the US Government and the worlds 最佳, 返回页首 rated scientists lie to us?

The reason why the government and many scientists lied to us is because they need Global Warming in order to keep their jobs. The best example of this can be found only a few years ago. Back in 2001 the scientist studying the O-Zone layer at NASA were losing their government sponsorship, so they decided to grab a few government workers and pay them off to make up an O-Zone crisis, and it worked. The scientists got their money and kept their jobs. What fueled the Global Warming scare was right after The Columbia Disaster that killed 7 astronauts. NASA was being criticized for low inspection rates, and was losing 更多 money that was already low due to the government feeling that they could use the money better than to make another useless trip to space, 或者 the moon. So just like with the O-Zone, the scientist got together some government officials who were willing to take bribes, and got them to agree to Global Warming and, just like with the O-Zone, this plan worked too, and now the scientist at NASA have 更多 money that they secretly transfer to the 太空 missions. In truth, the scientists now have 更多 money than they need. For example, if I was studying mating rituals of squid in an atmosphere like in the Seattle harbor, I wound most likely not get a lot of money, if any for this study, but if I was to mention the effects of Global Warming in my study, I might get 更多 money.
What very few people also remember is that this type of Global Warming fear has happened before. Remember that cold spell I talked about between 1940 and 1975. When that cold spell hit its peak in the 1960’s many scientists predicted doom. They were predicting a new Ice Age, and were wondering what was going to happen to the earth, like would we have to 移动 south and how far would ice glaciers stretch? But amidst all this doom talk, and almost all the scientists in the world agreeing to it, there were a few scientists who challenged this and 说 that the world will eventually heat up, which it did, to the point that now it is fueling Global Warming.
Earlier this 年 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a group of over 2000 scientist funded 由 the United Nation to study the climate and 发布 a 报道 about the Global Warming crisis. All of them agreed that this was happening and greenhouse emissions should be lowered, but these are the same scientists that need Global Warming for their jobs. The panel is 说 to have the greatest scientist on the planet, but most of them are not regarded as the best scientist in the world, and some are not even scientists at all, just government officials, and even a few members of the media. Also, the IPCC has not been known as an entirely truthful source. Back in the 2001 report, scientist outside the IPCC accused the IPCC of distorting graphs in what would become known as The Hockey Stick Controversy. They call it that because in graphs that 显示 the temperature ratings of the earth over a thousand 年 period, it shows steady rating line until the 1900 when it shot impossibly high to form a Hockey stick type shape. Though this group may claim to know what is causing Global Warming they are not the most reliable source.

So if Global Warming is a lie, then what is causing the world to heat up?

The answer to this 问题 is simple, the Sun. The Sun is a big, vibrant, active, beast of heat that does everything from warm our globe, to feed our plants. If fact without the Sun nothing would live on earth. One problem with the Sun is that sometimes every few hundred years it lets out a blast of hot rays to our planet (similar to the one in the picture at the bottom. Look at the right 最佳, 返回页首 hand corner), and causes the world to heat up. The scientists against the carbon dioxide Global Warming theory think that this is what is happening now, and that there is nothing we can do to stop it. This is just a simple blast of heat 由 the sun that will eventually die down.

Understand here that I am not trying to say to 你 that Global Warming is not happening. It is true that our earth is heating up. What I am trying to tell 你 is that it is not happening due to carbon dioxide, it is being caused 由 the sun, simple as that. Don’t just believe what the majority of people want 你 to believe. Look at the other side of the story, because just like back in the 1960’s, few people believed the scientists who 说 that the earth was going to warm up, but it did. Also, the facts I displayed in this 文章 may not be correct. The reason for this is that this is a controversial issue, and many facts are distorted 或者 may be untrue on both sides. I experienced this myself while doing this article. When I was looking for a picture of the earth’s temperature ratings in the last few decades, I found some pictures that 说 the weather between 1940 and 1975 was high, and others that 说 it was low. So what I am trying to say here is don’t judge a book 由 its cover, don’t believe everything 你 see and hear, and think for yourself because 你 may make a difference in the world when it comes to the truth. Convenient 或者 inconvenient.

Why would it be awkward?
Gods created us in their image. They created us to think, behave, and look (to a certain degree) like them. It makes no sense for them to purposefully make us like them, and then give us orders not to be like them.

There can not be 更多 than one God.
Except that there can, and there is.

I'm going to establish now God's existence.
Oookay. I'm not sure why, since no one was denying the existence of anything. But I guess this gives me a chance to play devils advocate, so I'll play.

I thought I'd write about this topic because I feel strongly about it. I myself am against it, so if 你 don't agree, that's fine, it's just my opinion. Whether 你 agree/disagree is upto you. Be sure to let me know what 你 think afterwards.

I've known many people who say they are for 或者 against capital punishment decide so quickly you'd think I asked them if they were a boy 或者 girl. A minority of these people answer so quickly because they actually know the facts and therefore know where they stand. The remainder, however, don't have a clue. They either give an answer that seems the most logically...

We conceive of racism as a set of institutional conditions of group inequality and an ideology of racial domination, in which the latter is characterized 由 a set of beliefs holding that the subordinate racial group is biologically 或者 culturally inferior to the dominant racial group. These beliefs, in turn, are deployed to prescribe and legitimize society's discriminatory treatment of the subordinate group and to justify their lower status. link

The common definition of racism, and the one used 由 people who believe in reverse racism, is just "the belief that one race of people is better than...

I found this in my notes for my English class... I figured I'd share them with 你 here.

In Classical times, heterosexuality, 或者 the 爱情 of a man for a woman, was considered to be "an animalistic urge to be slaked quickly only for the purpose of reproduction" (Henry Staten, English 202 instructor) while "platonic love" 或者 the 爱情 of a man for another man, was considered idealistic and "above the beasts."

Such close 老友记 were in fact called "lovers," like Hercules and Hylas. To fall in 爱情 with a man was the "proper" thing to do at the time, and signified a wonderous thing.

This "homosociality"...

Several of 你 already know that I am in the process of earning a masters degree in elementary education. As part of this process, I have to take courses in social justice and differentiated instruction. In these courses, I've learned about people's "frames of references."

It's a phrase I've heard before, and maybe one 你 know as well. I used to think it meant "point of view." And it does, 更多 或者 less, mean that. But it's 更多 than that. It's not just someone's point of view 或者 perspective. It's how they came to that perspective. What experiences they've had in live that's brought them to...
