Global Warming My Ass!

All right, so I'm really tired of hearing about global warming, especially since it's not true. Let me argue why, for all you environmentalists out there:

1. Cars were introduced by Henry Ford in the US in 1908. Wikipedia states: "The car was very simple to drive, and—more importantly—easy and cheap to repair. It was so cheap at $825 in 1908 (the price fell every year) that by the 1920s a majority of American drivers learned to drive on the Model T, leaving fond memories for millions. Ford created a massive publicity machine in Detroit to ensure every newspaper carried stories and ads about the new product. Ford's network of local dealers made the car ubiquitous in virtually every city in North America." If cars have been around and cheap for about 100 years, why are we just now hearing about global warming? If cars affected the earth so much, why didn't we see a faster and steadier climb before now, as scientists say?

2. The Industrial Revolution occurred in about the 1820's, 1830's. Fine. Scientists and environmentalists say that the pollution from the businesses contributes to global warming. Guys, business has been around for almost 200 years. In the beginning, there weren't even any laws concerning the amount of sulfur products like coal could contain, and there were no scrubbers on the smokestacks to help the problem either. Now, we have such laws, which has helped the problem of acid rain in the east, brought from the west's smog by wind. Ok, so why are we just hearing about global warming now?

If you follow the link, you'll see a chart that shows temperatures from 1895 to 2005. Notice how there are many peaks, both low and high. There was a peak in 1930, a decline into the 1970s, and another peak in 2000. Is anyone noticing a pattern? THIS IS MOTHER NATURE AT WORK! When the Earth is too populated, something comes along to fix it--notice we're overdue for a pandemic by about six or seven years, the last one in the 1970's in China--and now we hear harping about global warming. Someone prove to me that this isn't part of the Earth's natural cycle. You still have to account for an increase in population, which would affect the temperature as well. What about the blizzard of '77? Notice on the chart there was an extreme dip in 2005. Notice how we've reached a higher point in about 1935? I understand the need to cut back on carbon emissions, but please people. Don't over do it.

That's all for now. I urge you to look at all the charts there. They adequately describe what scientists are calling 'global warming.'
