Le réchauffement climatique: Nous dit-on toute la vérité?





Le réchauffement climatique: Nous dit-on toute la vérité?


Vidéos et documentaires chocs à voir sur le réchauffement climatique, qui remettent en questions des aspects importants du phénomène du réchauffement, et surtout, de ses causes réelles.

Autant que d`un côté on a vu les compagnies pétrolières financer une panoplie de scientifiques, journalistes et autres agents gouvernementaux pour discréditer la thèse du réchauffement climatique dans un premier temps et ensuite la relation avec l`homme qui en serait la cause dans un deuxième temps, autant que du côté des supporteurs de la thèse on a eu recours à des mensonges, fausse science et manipulation. Je ne pense pas que le débat soit si objectif qu`ils le prétendent. Il est en fait très politisé, d`un côté comme de l`autre.

Pourquoi, par exemple, ne discutons pas de questions pertinentes comme le fait que les autres planètes et satellites du système solaire se réchauffent aussi, que notre soleil ne se consumme pas de façon stable, mais qui est plutôt plus ou moins actif selon les cycles, que des carrottes glacières ont révélé que les taux de CO2 et d`oxygène on déjà été beaucoup plus élévé, que le CO2 augmente après un réchauffement climatique, et non l`inverse, que le CO2 n`est en fait qu`un des gas à effet de serre et que sa quantité relative est vraiment pas aussi élévé et influente que le méthane par exemple et autres formes de pollution chimiques, radioactives et génétiques?

Pourquoi ne pas admettre que notre science qui prend des fois la forme d`une religion aveugle selon le profit à faire, est encore limitée, que nos "modèles" sur ordinateurs cherchant à reproduire l`infinie complexité des écosystèmes et en extraire des scénarios cataclysmiques pour les prochains 100 ans, ne sont que cela même: des modèles et non la réalité?

Pourquoi chercher à nous faire peur à tout prix pour avancer un état de conscience? La conscience ne grandit elle pas avec l`amour et la compassion? Nous polluons en malade et au lieu de changer directement nos modes de vies, on va se laisser taxer une fois de plus pour payer pour les multinationales qui elles vont encore finir par éviter à payer la facture. Le CFR, la Commission Trilatérale, et les globalistes cherchent utiliser des phénomènes réels et se cacher derrière le vernis de l`environnementalisme pour récupérer la volonté du bon peuple de vouloir préserver notre belle planète pour avancer leur agenda de contrôle mondial et nous dicter comment vivre nos vies, tout en empochant l`argent de nos taxes qui iront dans leurs poches au lieu de pour le bien commun. Ils salopent la planète avec leurs dioxines, agents chimiques, déchets nucléaires, OGM, uranium appauvri, leur cartel pétrolier (dont on aurait dû se séparer depuis un bon moment puisqu`on possède
déjà la technologie de production de l`énergie libre, selon les travaux de Nikola Tesla par exemple).

En fait, cette monstrueuse campagne de peur mondiale ressemble de plus en plus à un faux débat à mon avis, dans le sens que la place qu`il occupe et la direction pour "régler" ce "problème" de réchauffement climatique est faussé et permet à l`élite d`éviter des débats encore bien plus graves et sérieux et dont nous sommes certains que nous en sommes la cause directe,
comme l`utilisation d`uranium appauvri qui a une demie-vie de radioactivité de 4.5 milliards d`années.

Il y a déjà dans l`air l`équivalent de 400 000 bombes, comme celle largué sur Nagasaki, en terme de radioactivité à cause de ces armes toxiques d
e destruction massive employées par l`armée US, britannique et israélienne et provenant aussi des divers essais nucléaires dans le monde. On parle d`une menace bien réelle sur la génétique vivante de la planète entière pour les prochains quelques milliards d`années, et jamais ce débat n`atteint les médias de masse. N`y voyez-vous pas un traitement médiatique biasé? Et pour quelle raison?

La science ne fonctionne pas par consensus. Un consensus, c`est une clique de gens qui s`entendent sur quelque chose, mais ça ne veux pas dire science. Il n`y a pas de preuve finale encore que nous sommes la cause première du changement climatique puisque c`est avant tout un phénomène naturel. N`attendons surtout pas avant de réduire notre impact sur la planète, mais ne tombons pas aussi dans le piège des fausses solutions qui pourraient causer encore plus de dommages et de problèmes pour essayer de régler un phénomène que nous ne comprenons pas encore bien dans son ensemble.

Il est un fait géologique que la planète suit des cycles de reffroidissement et de réchauffement réguliers, et que nous sommes en fait sur le point de retourner dans une ère glacière.
Il y a 20 - 30 ans, il y a eu un même genre de tapage médiatique à propos du climat et que nous étions tous en danger d`extinction, mais cette fois par une supposée glaciation, et le tout est tombé à plat faute de corrélation avec la réalité, et quelques décennies seulement après cette histoire incroyable, les mêmes acteurs nous proposent une vison catastrophique du futur à cause du réchauffement. La fameuse photo que vous voyez en tête d`article est une autre manipulation des sentiments: on vous présente dans les médias de masse une photo où l`on aperçoit deux ours polaires sur des bouts de glace, et on vous émeut en vous disant que c`est le réchauffement de la planète causé par nous qui tue ces bêtes, alors qu`en réalité la photo fut prise en été, alors que les glaces fondent normalement, et en ne vous disant pas qu`ils étaient prêt de la berge d`où les ours n`ont aucun problème pour nager, puisqu`ils peuvent nager des distances de 100km!

Des glaciers fondent sur Terre et sur Mars, mais ils y aussi une liste de glacier qui grossissent aussi. À certains endroit, le niveau de l`océan semble avoir très légèrement monté, alors qu`à d`autres, il a baissé.

Et pourtant, si l`on ose poser des questions sur les causes réelles du réchauffement des dernières dizaines d`années, on risque de se faire traiter de malsain d`esprit, de traitre ou même depuis récemment, se faire comparer aux gens qui nient l`Holocauste des juifs. Pourquoi donc ces tentatives d`intimidation? Ça n`attire pas ma confiance. Pas plus que celle des compagnies pétrolières.

Le réchauffement climatique est en train de devenir une raison passe-partout pour les gouvernements de faire se qu`ils veulent, au nom de "l`environnement". Encore une autre mission de sauver le monde, alors qu`on a peine à se sauver soi-même bordel.

Alors consultez les vidéos et documents que je vous présente ici pour voir un peu l`autre côté de la médaille dont on entend pas parler dans les médias de masse et sur la place publique.

Soyons lucides, mes amis. Bon courage.





Global Warming - Doomsday Called Off

Global Warming - Doomsday Called Off















*********

The Whole Solar System is Undergoing Global Warming.


This is a fact that not many people know about, and quite a few people, would like that there was no evidence to back this fact, because some people would like the world to believe that human activity is the cause for global warming on Earth. I am not advocating that releasing harmful gases, and chemicals in the oceans and atmosphere are good, but after a few years of research, I have come to understand that global warming is happening in the Solar System, not just on Earth.

Russian Astronomer Cites Global Warming On Mars, Doubts Man-Made Climate Change on Earth

Polar caps wane as Mars tries global warming

Since Mars is getting warmer along with the Earth, clearly a shared cause is at work, and one needs to look no further than the sun, which is currently burning the brightest and hottest it has since accurate measurements became possible.

Mars Melt Hints at Solar, Not Human, Cause for Warming, Scientist Says

Global warming on other planets

SUV's On Jupiter?


Are humans responsible for climate change on the outer reaches of the solar system, or is it the sun?

Solar pulses suggest heavy Australia rain - scientist

The more active the sun is, the fewer cosmic rays penetrate to the Earth. The fewer cosmic rays, the less low-level cloud formation. The less low-level cloud formation, the less rain, and in addition, less clouds means higher temperatures since sunlight is not being reflected back into space from the clouds.


Warming climate blamed on cosmic rays

MAN-MADE climate change may be happening at a far slower pace than has been claimed.

Scientists claim that cosmic rays from outer space play a far greater role in changing the Earth's climate than global warming experts previously thought.

The mechanism is simple. Anyone who has ever built a high-school physics cloud chamber knows that cosmic rays trigger cloud formation. The more cosmic rays, the more clouds. The more clouds, the more sunlight gets reflected back into space. The more sunlight that gets reflected back into space, the cooler the Earth will be.

When the sun is more active (and it is very active right now), not only is more sunlight reaching the Earth but the sun's more energetic magnetic field deflects cosmic rays, keeping them from reaching the Earth. So, Earth gets a double-whammy of more sunlight, plus less cloud formation letting that sunlight through at the same time.

And the Earth gets warmer.


Scientist's Commentary on Global Warming

Scientists question trees' role in global warming


Yes, trees suck up carbon dioxide. Too bad they emit methane, a far more potent greenhouse gas!


Under the United Nations' Kyoto Protocol on global warming, the forest is a saint, as trees suck in carbon dioxide (CO2) as part of the natural process of respiration.

By such thinking, if Kyoto signatories plant lots of forests, they create wonderful sponges that absorb the dangerous climate-altering gas.

But what if trees, in addition to taking in CO2, also emit a greenhouse gas of their own?


That scenario is sketched in a new study by European scientists, which if confirmed, would be one of the biggest upheavals in climate science for years.

It would also inflict a serious blow to Kyoto, one of whose key pillars is the faith in "sinks", as forests are called in the treaty's jargon.


Until now, the mainstream belief is that atmospheric methane chiefly comes from bugs: from bacteria working in wet, oxygen-less conditions, such as swamps and rice paddies.

But in a study published in the journal Nature, a team led by Frank Keppler of the Max Planck Institute in Germany has found living plants, dried leaves and grass emit methane in the presence of air.


Nor is this gas just a piffling amount.

The researchers roughly estimate the world's living vegetation emits between 62 and 236 million tonnes of methane per year, and plant litter adds one to seven million tonnes.


This would be equivalent to between 10 and 30 per cent of all annual global emissions of methane.


Origin of pingo-like features on the Beaufort Sea shelf and their possible relationship to decomposing methane gas hydrates

Methane is a far greater cause of warming than anything linked to humans.

The Great Global Warming Swindle

Global Warming: A Convenient Lie

Recently, a documentary aired on the UK’s Channel 4, entitled “The Great Global Warming Swindle”, which challenged the prevailing political understanding that global warming is caused by man-made activity. The movie argues that it is in fact the sun that is responsible for the current changes in the Earth’s temperature and the film is riddled with the testimony of many scientists and climate experts, furthering a growing dissent to the man-made theory. After all, that’s all it is, a theory. As soon as people start to state that “the debate is over”, beware, because the fundamental basis of all sciences is that debate is never over, that questions must be asked and answered and issues raised in order for the science to be accurate. So what exactly are the arguments behind the Sun being the main cause of global warming?

First off, it is very important to address the fact that Earth is not the only planet to be experiencing climate change in our solar system currently. In fact, many astronomers have announced that Pluto has been experiencing global warming, and suggested that it is a seasonal event, just like how Earth’s seasons change as the various hemispheres alter their inclination to the Sun. We must remember that it is the Sun that determines our seasons, and thusly has a greater impact upon the climate than we could ever even try to achieve.

Powerful Documentary Trounces Man-Made Warming Hoax

Why Politicized Science is Dangerous

Now we are engaged in a great new theory that once again has drawn the support of politicians, scientists, and celebrities around the world. Once again, the theory is promoted by major foundations. Once again, the research is carried out at prestigious universities. Once again, legislation is passed and social programs are urged in its name. Once again, critics are few and harshly dealt with.

Once again, the measures being urged have little basis in fact or science. Once again, groups with other agendas are hiding behind a movement that appears high-minded. Once again, claims of moral superiority are used to justify extreme actions. Once again, the fact that some people are hurt is shrugged off because an abstract cause is said to be greater than any human consequences. Once again, vague terms like sustainability and generational justice --- terms that have no agreed definition --- are employed in the service of a new crisis.

I am not arguing that global warming is the same as eugenics. But the similarities are not superficial. And I do claim that open and frank discussion of the data, and of the issues, is being suppressed. Leading scientific journals have taken strong editorial positions of the side of global warming, which, I argue, they have no business doing. Under the circumstances, any scientist who has doubts understands clearly that they will be wise to mute their expression.

That is the danger we now face. And this is why the intermixing of science and politics is a bad combination, with a bad history. We must remember the history, and be certain that what we present to the world as knowledge is disinterested and honest.

why no one seems to be listening to scientists who claim that global warming is NOT man-made

Global Warming, as we think we know it, doesn't exist. And I am not the only one trying to make people open up their eyes and see the truth. But few listen, despite the fact that I was one of the first Canadian Ph.Ds. in Climatology and I have an extensive background in climatology, especially the reconstruction of past climates and the impact of climate change on human history and the human condition. Few listen, even though I have a Ph.D, (Doctor of Science) from the University of London, England and was a climatology professor at the University of Winnipeg. For some reason (actually for many), the World is not listening. Here is why.

'Global Warming Is Lies' Claims Documentary

FROM YESTERDAY'S LETTERS PAGE:

Back in the 70s (before the World Wide Web) we were all being sold on the fears of a new ice age. No, I am not kidding. The same mainstream media that screams "GLOBAL WARMING" at us today was predicting that the coming of the next ice age would happen within our lifetimes. And back in the 30s, the "fashionable science" was Eugenics, or the undesirability of allowing less than perfect humans to contaminate the gene pool by breeding. All that Hitler did in the name of "Racial Hygiene" was drawn from the American scientists he chose as his inspiration.

The fact is that much of what you think is science is just pop culture, what is trendy to believe in and support, or even religion dressed up as science to make it sell better, such as the "Big Bang." again back in the 70s the cocktail party cognoscenti were obligated to be able to discuss the origin of consciousness in the triune brain, even though real psychologists had abandoned the theory years ago.

People who are not actually scientists will cling to their pet theories the way they cling to religions. They don't really understand what they are talking about; they just know that is they speak the correct words, their peers will approve of them.

A good example of this mindset is illustrated by two recent news stories, one of which confirms that the level of solar radiation has in fact been increasing and is at a 60 year peak right now, and the announcement that Mars is showing signs of warming right alongside that of Earth. Now, a real scientist will look at those facts and say, "Okay, we need a new theory here." But the "Pop-scientists", the ones who wear science as a fashion accessory, they refuse to look at the facts. I have gotten emails insisting that the warming on Mars has nothing to do with the warming on Earth because, well, just BECAUSE! Then there are emails such as yours, attempting to twist a simple disagreement of the facts into an attack on the credibility of my whole site. In both cases, no contrary facts are presented, just a resorting to various "authorities" on global warming whose continued funding depends on the continued "existence" of global warming, much as the "authorities" on the coming ice age in the 70s needed a continuing threat of that ice age to exist in the public mind to secure their added funding. Remember the witch hunts of Europe? When people were paid to find witches, they found witches. When people are paid to find global warming, they find global warming. That is the danger of agenda-driven science. One does not get scientific results, one gets political results.

The fact is that the Earth is getting warmer. We just came out of an ice age. Of COURSE it is getting warmer. Earth is currently warmer than the ice ages and cooler than the Cretaceous. It is only human arrogance that dares declare one particular temperature as "correct" or "normal", or dares suggest that the always-changing Earth can or should be locked into one particular temperature, based on that rather arbitrary decision of what is "normal."

Now, I am fully in favor of conservation and wise use of resources. I am also in favor of developing energy alternatives that are as environmentally friendly as possible. I am convinced that had we taken the money wasted on Iraq and put it into research we would not need the oil any more.

But the clamor about global warming is not leading to solutions but merely scares people into buying ill considered policies and products without the careful thought that should go into such decisions. People will buy anything if they are told it is good for the environment.

But the reality is that everything man does affects the environment, no matter how eco-friendly it is claimed to be. Windmills were hailed as the ultimate in safe energy systems, until it was discovered that the disrupted wind flow changed the micro-climates in the lee of the wind farms, and that wind farms built across migratory paths wound up chopping thousands of birds (including endangered species) into bits.

Pop-scientists and cocktail party cognoscenti like to have a single easy theory that explains everything. "The world is getting warmer and if you stop driving your SUV/vote for my politician/buy my product all will be well!" The real world, and real science, are seldom that simple and clean cut. Yes, man undoubtedly has an influence on the Earth's environment. But the reality is that man's ability to change the Earth remains minuscule compared to other naturally occurring forces.

The real purpose of the global warming scare (besides selling candidates and products) is to give people something safe to fret about. Most of the global warming crowd welcome the global warming "cause" because it is safe. They are not in danger of having the government come after them the way pro-peace activists do, or those who expose government cover-ups. The global warmers can walk around with an air of superiority, feeling like they are making a better world without actually having to confront the far more deadly reality of a government that is lying us into war after war after war. That's why the global warmers cling to their religion so tightly. Without it, they would have to deal with some pretty harsh realities.

The Great Global Warming Swindle

First of all, greenhouse effect is not a bad thing. Without it, our planet would not support life as we know it, as the average temperature would be too cold to support liquid water.

Water vapor is the single most potent greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, trapping more heat than carbon dioxide and methane put together. Estimates of the impact of water vapor on global warming vary widely from a minimum of 60% of all greenhouse effect to 98% of all greenhouse effect, but even at the minimum of 60%, that leaves 40% of greenhouse effect to be shared by all other chemicals combined, including carbon dioxide and methane (which has ten times the greenhouse capacity pound for pound as carbon dioxide).

Now then, looking at Carbon Dioxide, we find that only .117% of atmospheric carbon dioxide is directly attributable to human technology such as automobiles. .117% is a rather small amount. If we were to measure out .117% of a football field, it comes out to 4.212 inches, barely long enough to get off the touchdown line.

global warming: CO2, Sunspots, or politics? By Phil N. Baldwin, JR.
(Exclusive to FMNN Via IlanaMercer.com)">An excerpt from global warming: CO2, Sunspots, or politics? By Phil N. Baldwin, JR.
(Exclusive to FMNN Via IlanaMercer.com)

We are told global warming is absolutely true and due to the specific man-generated, 'greenhouse gas' carbon dioxide (CO2). This gas is generated from the combustion of carbon sources such as wood, natural gas, propane, coal, oil and motor fuels. About 0.015% of the earth's atmospheric volume is CO2 down from a historical high of ~0.30%. The greenhouse gas you don't hear about is water vapor/gas. It represents on average about 1% of the earth's atmospheric volume or ~67 times more volume than CO2. A variation in the water vapor in the atmosphere of +1.5% of the 1% total (0.015%) [not unusual] would equal the total volume of the earth's CO2. What is responsible for the water vapor in the atmosphere and the variations? The Sun is responsible, not man.


If global warming was due to an increase in CO2 over the past 80 years then there should be a strong mathematical correlation between the change in CO2 and the change in global temperature. There is a math term called the coefficient of determination (R2) that is used to measure and explain the change in one variable (CO2) as related to impacts in a second variable (temperature). A value of 1.0 indicates a perfect explanation in the change in one variable as related or caused by the other. Usually in statistical math, high R2 values of 0.90 or greater are desired to have high confidence in a cause and impact relationship. That said, between 1925 and the current period, the R2 for CO2's impact on global temperature is ~0.21 or in effect no impact of significance. Then, what has a high correlationship with global temperature change?

Global Warming: Truth or Dare?

I argue that by far the most destructive force on the planet is power-driven financiers and profit-driven corporations and their cartels backed by military might; and that the global warming myth is a red herring that contributes to hiding this truth. In my opinion, activists who, using any justification, feed the global warming myth have effectively been co-opted, or at best neutralized.

Forecaster blasts Gore on global warming

An experiment that hints we are wrong on climate change

Twenty years ago, climate research became politicised in favour of one particular hypothesis, which redefined the subject as the study of the effect of greenhouse gases. As a result, the rebellious spirits essential for innovative and trustworthy science are greeted with impediments to their research careers. And while the media usually find mavericks at least entertaining, in this case they often imagine that anyone who doubts the hypothesis of man-made global warming must be in the pay of the oil companies. As a result, some key discoveries in climate research go almost unreported.

Global Warming Replaces 9/11 As Justification To Do Anything
Stop asking questions and just let us tax the living hell out of you, including the very air you breathe, after all - it's for the environment and we've never lied to you before have we?

Invoking September 11 has officially been succeeded by a new mantra and an excuse for the state to unleash a fresh tyranny no matter how offensive and damaging to individual liberty it may be. Global warming has replaced 9/11 as the justification to do anything!

The bellicose denouncement of global warming skeptics (that is skeptics of the man-made explanation) and their tarring as being akin to holocaust deniers, is beginning to mirror what happened after 9/11, when anyone who criticized Bush's agenda was lambasted as a traitor, a terrorist sympathizer, and completely divorced from the political mainstream.

Simply evoking the menace of global warming has become the government's justification to do anything!

Le réchauffement global d'Al Gore: instrument d'un nouvel impérialisme environnemental

Le film-documentaire d’Al Gore, Une vérité qui dérange (2006), sa version écrite, devenue un best-seller, les tournées de conférences, la formation de jeunes capables de faire des présentation « powerpoint », les concerts Live Earth de juillet 2007, toute cette hyperactivité ne reflète aucunement une prise de conscience soudaine, par les peuples du monde, du danger que représente le réchauffement global, mais plutôt l’une des campagnes de propagande les plus massives de l’histoire. Après son début en mai 2006 aux Etats-Unis, Une vérité qui dérange a été distribué dans 35 pays, quelquefois présenté par Gore lui-même, et doit bientôt être introduit dans les écoles et les églises. Ce documentaire, récemment couronné d’un Oscar, n’est que la partie la plus visible d’une série d’opérations psychologiques et politiques coordonnées par des intérêts financiers basés en Grande-Bretagne, ayant pour but de tromper et de contrôler.

L’opération Gore dans son ensemble est organisée par ce que l’on pourrait appeler le « Centre de commande britannique », un réseau reliant étroitement le Premier Ministre britannique Tony Blair, le Chancelier de l’Echiquier Gordon Brown, le milliardaire à la retraite, ex-patron d’eBay, Jeff S. Skoll, aujourd’hui président de Participant Productions et principale source de financement du documentaire d’Al Gore, ainsi que le hedge fund Generation Investment Management, autrement connu comme « Blood and Gore », également basé à Londres.

En avril 2006, lors de son Skoll World Forum, le milliardaire a présenté David Blood et Al Gore, les deux co-fondateurs de Generation Investment Management, comme les « superstars » de l’ »économie du changement climatique ».

Pour les contre-arguments scientifiques à la propagande de Gore et consorts, lisez :

The Global Warming Diversion

Ted Robert Bahr

“Simultaneous warming on Earth and Mars suggests that our planet's recent climate changes have a natural—and not a human-induced—cause, according to one scientist's controversial theory.”
-National Geographic, February 28, 2007 Press Release1

“This small warming is likely a result of the natural alterations in global ocean currents which are driven by ocean salinity variations. Ocean circulation variations are as yet little understood. Human kind has little or nothing to do with the recent temperature changes. We are not that influential.”
-Professor William M. Gray, Colorado State University2

“And I do claim that open and frank discussion of the data [on global warming], and of the issues, is being suppressed. Leading scientific journals have taken strong editorial positions of the side of global warming, which, I argue, they have no business doing. Under the circumstances, any scientist who has doubts understands clearly that they will be wise to mute their expression.”

Global Warming On The Ropes

Toronto Hydro seeks rate rise

Everyone makes do with less to save electricity, so the power company ups the rates so that the customer still has to pay the same for less power.

Scientists: Trying to change earth's climate is tricky

If anyone wants to know who trying to change Earth's climate is a fool's errand one only needs to look at the history of Yellowstone National Park and the endless chain of one bad decision after the other in park policy that, with the very best of intentions to "preserve" nature, actually triggered major ecological shifts within the park. First the native Americans were forbidden to hunt the park lands, so game animals multiplied quickly and soon the available forage plants were decimated. The animals began to starve, so the park managers imported predators to control the population but the forage plants, now gone, did not come back, so the game animals continued to die off while the predators wandered off the park and attacked farm livestock in the area. Fire prevention slowly changed the plant life in the park, leading to a disaster when park managers realized that occasional fires were necessary for certain species to survive (such as redwoods, whose seeds sprout after a forest fire) and tried to execute "controlled burns", which quickly went uncontrolled.

All this mess was done without an evil corporate entity raping the Earth for profit, but was done by scientists and environmentalists with the very best of intentions, great enthusiasm, and poor understanding of what they were dealing with.

No imagine that same "force for good" unleashed on the planet as a whole.

Chinese make first artificial snowfall


Global warmers getting desperate


The “Ice Age” hoax of the late 1970s took advantage of the general population’s unfamiliarity with climate. A massive climatic change, like an ice age, normally taking centuries to develop, can be encapsulated in seconds by computers into a form that may be interpreted as short-term as weather. The marketing ploy is based on fear — not the type of fear generated by such incidents as 9/11 but a distant fear of “we’re all going to die.”

The ice age hoax was melted away with warmer weather. However, the perpetrators were not. The devil’s workshop was still intact.

Very cleverly, the great deceivers of the “ice age” hoax turned up the thermostats on their computers and developed models that revealed a greater threat to mankind than an “ice age.” It was global warming.

As Predicted: Global Warming Skeptics Linked With Holocaust Denial

In an article we published in November about global warming being caused by the sun, we commented somewhat tongue in cheek that people who express doubts about global warming would soon be compared to holocaust deniers by the media and other self-appointed cultural kingpins who demand total adherence to orthodox religion style beliefs about climate change.

It's no longer a joke.

Ethanol emissions aren't greener than gasoline: study

Bill to Ban Regular Light Bulbs Introduced in House

A Democratic lawmaker has introduced a bill that would ban the sale of traditional incandescent light bulbs - which are less energy-efficient, prompting claims that they contribute to "global warming" - one day after a colleague told a press conference that legislating a ban would be a "last choice."

Now, let me start off by saying I think high-efficiency lights are very good. They save power, run much cooler (a real issue in summer) and last longer than conventional filament bulbs. In our home, there are only two old-style filament lamps still in use and they won't be here much longer. CFs rule and LED flashlights are the best.

That being said, I am opposed to a ban on conventional bulbs because I don't feel it is appropriate for government to dictate what lights people use. If they chose the older bulbs, well, that is fine. That is their choice, and while there is choice both old and new bulb makers will be motivated to produce better products at lower prices. The newer high-efficiency bulbs are better and longer lasting than older style bulbs because they HAVE to be to win customers. Once the new bulbs are legally mandated, manufacturers will be free to make them lower in quality because the customers will have no alternatives to go to.

There is also the issue of the radioisotopes used in compact flourescent bulbs. Not everyone is comfortable with having radioactive sources in their reading lamps, with the risk of accidental ingestion if the light is shattered.

Sur les médias et Internet...




Sur les médias et Internet...


Voici quelques articles qui valent la peine d`être vu dans le domaine des médias. Des nouvelles sur la prise de position du Pentagone sur l`Internet, sur le futur d`Internet, sur la propagande dans les médias, sur la complicité des médias de masse dans la guerre contre l`Iraq, sur les menteurs et extorqueurs d`argent en échange de couverture médiatique favorable, de manipulation de l`information et de la censure. Bref, de quoi faire comprendre pourquoi les médias de masse sont en chute libre.


Zogby Poll: Most Say Bloggers, Citizen Reporters to Play Vital Role in Journalism's Future


Study: Web news readers have greater attention span


People who use the Internet to read the news have a greater attention span than print readers, according to a U.S. study that refutes the idea that Web surfers jump around and don't read much.


Said idea being a favorite fairy tale of the mainstream media.

Note to advertisers: this suggests that net surfers who see your ad on the net are more likely to retain the ad in their memory than those who see the same ad in the newspaper or on TV. This actually makes sense. It takes far more intelligence to use a computer than to pick up a newspaper or turn on the TV.


Commercialization and Future Access to the Internet Highway


Perhaps the most obvious political effect of controlled news is the advantage it gives powerful people in getting their issues on the political agenda and defining those issues in ways likely to influence their resolution."W. Lance Bennett

"The Bush majority on the FCC has bowed to the interests of the big cable and telephone companies to strip away, or undo, the Internet’s basic DNA of openness and non-discrimination.”Bill Moyers..

Propaganda and the Politics of Perception


A version of this text was presented to the Kuala Lumpur Conference on War Crimes, Perdana Global Peace Organization, 5-7 February 2007.

War propaganda glorifies military indoctrination as the highest form of patriotism while simultaneously demonizing the enemies of the state.


Adolf Hitler realized the power of propaganda to mould and shape public opinion. Hitler wrote a highly informed essay on the powers of propaganda in his political autobiography, Mein Kampf.


Modern governments employ propaganda to incite public outcries for war in order to advance their agendas in foreign policy.


Media complicity and disinformation on the Iraq war


Mouthpiece of U.S. imperialism

A new report by the progressive media watchdog group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting shows the complicity of the capitalist media in selling the U.S. invasion of Iraq to a skeptical U.S. public.


FLASHBACK: The Iraqi tanks that were not there


Satellite photographs taken by the Soviet Union on the precise day Bush addressed Congress failed to show any evidence of Iraqi troops in Kuwait or massing along the Kuwait-Saudi Arabian border. While the Pentagon was claiming as many as 250,000 Iraqi troops in Kuwait, it refused to provide evidence that would contradict the Soviet satellite photos. U.S. forces, encampments, aircraft, camouflaged equipment dumps, staging areas and tracks across the desert can easily be seen. But as Peter Zimmerman, formerly of the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency in the Reagan Administration, and a former image specialist for the Defense Intelligence Agency, who analyzed the photographs said:


We didn't find anything of that sort [i.e. comparable to the U.S. buildup] anywhere in Kuwait. We don't see any tent cities, we don't see congregations of tanks, we can't see troop concentrations, and the main Kuwaiti air base appears deserted. It's five weeks after the invasion, and from what we can see, the Iraqi air force hasn't flown a single fighter to the most strategic air base in Kuwait. There is no infrastructure to support large numbers of people. They have to use toilets, or the functional equivalent. They have to have food.... But where is it?


As the Bushling and his Neocons try to sell us another war, it is worth recalling the scandal over photos shown by the Us Government during the run-up to Desert Storm.

The photos in question purported to show massed Iraqi tanks on the border with Saudi Arabia. But Russian satellite photos of the same region on the same day showed nothing but empty desert, and photos from a commercial satellite purchased by a Florida newspaper confirmed it.


Rewrite


The Washington Post has been caught red-handed inadvertantly printing the truth from a Reuters news feed and then censoring and rewriting the story to conform to government propaganda and lies.


U.S. forces in Diwaniyah in Iraq discovered a factory making EFP's (explosively formed penetrators). Now this is interesting because the official story from Washington is that Iran must be supplying these bombs to Iraq, because they are too sophisticated for the poor Iraqi raghead idiots to produce. So let's go bomb Iran, too!


And now U.S. soldiers have to go and find a FACTORY producing these things in IRAQ! OOPS!


Corporate spin can come in disguise


- James K. Glassman, a prominent syndicated columnist, denounced Super Size Me, a movie critical of McDonald's. Readers were not told that McDonald's is a major sponsor of a Web site hosted by Glassman.


- John Semmens, a policy adviser at the Heartland Institute, wrote a column for the Louisville Courier-Journal that called Wal-Mart "a major force in promoting prosperity for everyone." Readers were not told that his think tank had received more than $300,000 from the Walton Family Foundation, run by the heirs of Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton.


- Steven Milloy, an analyst at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, wrote a column in the Washington Times that sided with the oil industry against windfall profits taxes. Readers weren't told that groups closely affiliated with Milloy have received at least $180,000 from ExxonMobil.


CNN's Nuke Plant Photos Identical for Both Iran and N. Korea!


CNN's Nuke Plant Photos Identical for Both Iran and N. Korea!

Who's the source for the photos?!

And are there any responsible corporate media outlets left in America?!

Two stories posted in the last week on the CNN website, one on nukes in Iran last Wednesday, and another on nukes in North Korea on Saturday, both use the same aerial photograph of the same purported nuclear power plant!

But one is supposed to be in Iran and the other is supposed to be in North Korea!

Debunking NY Post's Tabloid Hit Piece On Sheen/O'Donnell


O'Reilly Mafia Threatens O'Donnell Over Sex Scandal


Rosie O'Donnell, currently under attack after she questioned the official story behind 9/11, has revealed that Fox News bully Bill O'Reilly threatened to "go after" her and her colleagues after they mentioned O'Reilly's sex scandal on The View.

ABC has now gagged O'Donnell from mentioning the subject on all future broadcasts.


Maybe Rosie can't mention O'Reilly's sex scandal, BUT I SURE AS HELL CAN!

TOP STORYNew York Post Hit Piece On Sheen & O'Donnell (and yours truly)


Matt Rivero? The New York Post can't even get my name right, then proceed to claim to sit in judgment on Charlie Sheen and Rosie O'Donnell?

What is very obvious is that the New York Post wrote this panic-stricken hit piece without even bothering to visit my website where it says in gold type at the very top, "Michael Rivero's What Really Happened." It's up there now, above where you are reading this. Go ahead and look. I'll wait.


So, Richard Johnson, Paula Froelich, Bill Hoffmann, and Corynne Steindler all decided that my theory of the collapse of WTC-7 was "debunked", and not one of them, NOT ONE OF THEM, actually visited my website to find out what that theory really was.


We Hear . . . Stern Questions


Stern, a longtime freelance contributor to the Post’s “Page Six,” was accused by billionaire Ron Burkle of trying to extort $200,000 from him in exchange for keeping negative stories about him out of the paper. Now the “Page Six” editor, Richard Johnson, has been contacted for questioning by a group that includes prosecutors from the Southern District and federal agents.
