    Can anyone explain why there is a daily \”climate change\” update in Insurance Journal? And can anyone explain to me why it is not the height of arrogance for people today to arrogate to themselves what the optimum climate for subsequent generations ought to be?

    Climate researcher Dr. Tad Murty, former Senior Research Scientist for Fisheries and Oceans in Canada, reversed himself from believer in man-made climate change to a skeptic. “I stated with a firm belief about global warming, until I started working on it myself,” Murty explained on August 17, 2006. “I switched to the other side in the early 1990\’s when Fisheries and Oceans Canada asked me to prepare a position paper and I started to look into the problem seriously,” Murty explained.

    Murty was one of the 60 scientists who wrote an April 6, 2006 letter urging withdrawal of Kyoto to Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper which stated in part, \”If, back in the mid-1990s, we knew what we know today about climate, Kyoto would almost certainly not exist, because we would have concluded it was not necessary.”

    Botanist Dr. David Bellamy, a famed UK environmental campaigner, former lecturer at Durham University and host of a popular UK TV series on wildlife, recently converted into a skeptic after reviewing the science and now calls global warming fears \”poppycock.\” According to a May 15, 2005 article in the UK Sunday Times, Bellamy said “global warming is largely a natural phenomenon. The world is wasting stupendous amounts of money on trying to fix something that can’t be fixed.” “The climate-change people have no proof for their claims. They have computer models which do not prove anything,” Bellamy added. Bellamy’s conversion on global warming did not come without a sacrifice as several environmental groups have ended their association with him because of his views on climate change. The severing of relations came despite Bellamy’s long activism for green campaigns. The UK Times reported Bellamy “won respect from hardline environmentalists with his campaigns to save Britain’s peat bogs and other endangered habitats. In Tasmania he was arrested when he tried to prevent loggers cutting down a rainforest.”

    Obviously it was people causing global warming by expelling carbon dioxide and methane according to the media. Either that or aliens?

    As I’m sure you;ve heard, the Supreme Court just concluded, in its infinite wisdom, that CO2 is a pollutant that the govt must regulate. Therefore, we are “polluting” when we exhale. 5% of the atmosphere is CO2. 95% of “greenhouse gasses” is water vapor. How in God’s name is our contribution to CO2 levels determinative?

    The head of NASA just said it’s a crock too, and he is being excoriated like a heretic in 12th Century Rome. The schrieking reaction he is getting should further cement in our minds that the GW advocates are religious zealots who would convert us by the sword if they only could.
