Global Warming Thoughts

   I have always thought I was a pretty smart cookie. Now the proof is in the pudding or cookie dough! I have never believed in global warming. I always thought it was a bunch of "educated dummies" speaking hogwash. Now I have been proven correct in my thinking! I am sure many of you are with me on this, and have always been, because it isn't rocket science to know the earth goes through cycles of warming and cooling. No "degree" needed to know that!
The global warming talk reached my kids. I have to keep trying to un-teach them about it, or may I say, teach them the truth. Should we be good stewards of this great planet that God gave us to dwell upon? Yes. One of my biggest pet peeves is to see litter! It just makes our surroundings look bad. I don't think companies should be irresponsible and dump waste that pollutes our water systems, lakes and rivers. I am not a tree-hugger, although I don't like all the trees being cut down for no reason, it's just me. I love beautiful fall foliage. On the other hand, I do not think the carbon dioxide, which plants need to survive, and animal flatulence causes holes in the ozone or warms the earth's temperature! I know that part of the reason for forest fires growing so fast, is because man isnt' allowed to cut down trees to help thin down the forest so there is less fuel for the fires. While re-cycling isn't a bad thing, another man's trash is another man's treasure, I just don't think you should be made to feel bad because you choose not to. I would rather re-cycle so that there would be less to put in landfills because seeing nature over landfills is always more desireable. But if they want you to recycle and then buy products that contain recycled materials, why do those product cost so much more? The higher cost makes me NOT choose them.
   I always thought scientists were smart people, but with the global warming banter, I really began to question their intelligence. Then Al Gore got on the band wagon, well say no more. After all he thinks he invented the internet! There is always someone to support both sides of the issue, no matter what it is, global warming or not. But common sense tells most people that animal gas will not raise the earth's temperature! Has anyone ever checked the temperature of animal farts anyway????
Now there is evidence that scientists knew better all along, but tried to hide the fact that there is no such thing as global warming! So they weren't dumb after all, they just thought us regular Joe's were! Professor Mann, at Pennsylvania State University who is an important climate debate scientist, wrote an email that talked about the trick used to hide an actual decline in temperatures!!! What does that say about our educators?
    So all you average Joe's out there, don't doubt your intellegence, doubt the intellegence of those who are supposed to be the experts!!
