By now virtually everyone on earth is aware of the hysteria being fostered by socialists over global warming.
Al Gore and his disciples claim that any planetary warming that is occurring must be caused by human beings. After all, the West and America have been dominant for the last century or more, and that is when temperatures seem to have begun to rise (recently in history, that is), so it must be the evil capitalists and their SUVs and industry causing it.
But does that contention stand up to actual science and history? Not even close. The only “science” that supports this silly theory consists of a lot of conjecture and some “fudged” computer models like the one left naked from the Climate Research Unit in the recent ClimateGate scandal.
History is also not a friend to the anthropogenic global warming religion. At many times during human history, our planet has been much warmer…and much cooler. For instance, around the year 1,000 AD, the Vikings colonized Greenland and had a thriving civilization there…only to be forced to abandon it as the climate cooled dramatically a few hundred years later. There was also a “Little Ice Age” in the 1600’s and 1700’s where things were much cooler in Europe and America than they were a few decades before…and since.
