Top Weatherman: Global Warming Was All BS

This story brought to you by

the online paper with the coolest damn logo in all of Christendom.

John Coleman, who co-founded the Weather Channel, shocked academics by insisting the theory of man-made climate change was no longer scientifically credible.

Instead, what ‘little evidence’ there is for rising global temperatures points to a ‘natural phenomenon’ within a developing eco-system.

In an open letter attacking the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, he wrote: “The ocean is not rising significantly.

“The polar ice is increasing, not melting away. Polar Bears are increasing in number.

“Heat waves have actually diminished, not increased. There is not an uptick in the number or strength of storms (in fact storms are diminishing).

“I have studied this topic seriously for years. It has become a political and environment agenda item, but the science is not valid.”

How’s that for a slap right on the donkey’s dingus?

He added: “There is no significant man-made global warming at this time, there has been none in the past and there is no reason to fear any in the future.

“Efforts to prove the theory that carbon dioxide is a significant greenhouse gas and pollutant causing significant warming or weather effects have failed.

“There has been no warming over 18 years.”

The IPCC argue their research shows that man-made global warming will lead to extreme weather events becoming more frequent and unpredictable.

US News and World Report noted that many of the world’s largest businesses, including Coke, Pepsi, Walmart, Nestle, Mars, Monsanto, Kellogg, General Mills, Microsoft, and IBM, “are now engaged and actively responding to climate science and data.”

Mr Coleman’s comments come as President Barack Obama came under fire from climatologists as federal data revealed The United State’s energy-related carbon pollution rose 2.5 per cent despite the President’s pledges to decrease it.

So, does this mean that all the little minions on the Weather Channel will now shut up? OMG I hope so. Just wear the tight outfits, smile a lot, and give me the 5 day forecast. And then go away.

While I think that a good bit more CO2 in the lower atmosphere is actually a good thing, since I remember the Carbon Cycle from school, I am prepared to accept a huge worldwide green initiative to lower it: grow more shellfish.

I’d like to see clam and oyster beds everywhere, and I’d especially like to see every island in the Caribbean making huge efforts to raise millions and billions of Queen Conchs. Anywhere tropical actually. As long as sea grass will grow, conchs ought to do well too. High quality protein, all of it.

And you get back cleaner, less acidic seawater besides. because they’re filter feeders and algae eaters.

And all those millions, billions, trillions of shells, all made from calcium carbonate ... locked up CO2 removed from the atmosphere. Harvested, and then laid down to become limestone once again. ( which is the slower, larger, secondary Carbon Cycle IIRC ).

And all those poor islands would have a nice fat legal cash source, easy work in paradise, and we could all eat conch salad and lambie curry for cheap all the time mon!!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
