Heres what the science tells us.

There are four(4) data sets used to calculate global temperatures. 1. Ground Temp. 2. Tree top Temps. 3. Ice Cores. 4. Satelites.

Only 1 of the 4 data sets indicate any rise in temperatures.

C02 Gas - Ice Core Records & geological records indicate there were times in the earth's past where C02 gases were 10 times current levels. Yet no increase in Global Temperature occured.

Computer Modeling - Much of what Al Gore claims is based upon computer modeling. They punch in current and projected data and the result is dramatic increases in Global Temperature leading to all kinds of catastrophic events.

The problem is when you go back to the year 1900 and enter actual...

“Since when did you become a global warming alarmist?” I kidded Norman midway into our telephone conversation a few weeks before this amazing scientist and humanitarian died. “What are you talking about?” Dr. Borlaug retorted. “I’ve never believed that nonsense.”

I read him a couple sentences from his July 29 Wall Street Journal article. “Within the next four decades, the world’s farmers will have to double production … on a shrinking land base and in the face of environmental demands caused by climate change. Indeed, [a recent Oxfam study concludes] that the multiple effects of climate change might reverse...
