"Princeton University physicist Dr. Will Happer, who says he was fired by Vice President Al Gore for failing to adhere to Gore’s views on global warming, has now declared that man-made warming fears are “mistaken.”

Happer, who served as the director of Energy Research at the Department of Energy from 1990 to 1993, said, “I had the privilege of being fired by Al Gore, since I refused to go along with his alarmism. I did not need the job that badly.”

He said in 1993, “I was told that science was not going to intrude on policy."

Now Happer has asked to join the more than 650 international scientists who have spoken out against man-made global warming fears and are cited in the 2008 U.S. Senate Minority Report from Environmental and Public Works Committee ranking member James Inhofe, R-Okla.

“I am convinced that the current alarm over carbon dioxide is mistaken,” Happer told the committee on Dec. 22.

President-elect Barack Obama’s choice as his top science adviser, Harvard University professor John Holdren, is a staunch believer in the dangers of man-made global warming and advised Gore on his documentary “An Inconvenient Truth.”

Dr. Happer has published over 200 scientific papers, and is a fellow of the American Physical Society, The American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the National Academy of Sciences.

Sen. Inhofe said that the statements of prominent scientists like Happer who are willing to publicly dissent from climate fears strike a blow to the United Nations, Gore, and the media’s claims about global warming.

“The endless claims of a 'consensus' about man-made global warming grow less and less credible every day," Inhofe said.

Happer declared, “I have spent a long research career studying physics that is closely related to the greenhouse effect — for example, absorption and emission of visible and infrared radiation, and fluid flow. Fears about man-made global warming are unwarranted and are not based on good science. The earth's climate is changing now, as it always has. There is no evidence that the changes differ in any qualitative way from those of the past . . .

“Computer models used to generate frightening scenarios from increasing levels of carbon dioxide have scant credibility.”

Didn't you get the memo? It's not GW any longer, it's Climate Change.
I could go for a little GW right now. At least you don't have to shovel rain.

Carlin said it best.

"The planet is fine... the people are *******ed! Difference, difference. The planet is fine. Compared to the people, the planet is doing great! Been here 4.5 billion years. You ever think about the arithmatic? The planet has been here 4.5 billion years, we've been here what? A 100,000?! Maybe 200,000? And we've only been engaged in heavy industry for a little over 200yrs. 200yrs vs 4.5 billion. And we have the conceit, to somehow think we're a threat? That somehow we're gonna put in jeopardy this little beautiful blue green ball that's floating around the Sun? The planet has been through a LOT WORSE THAN US."

"The planet isn't going anywhere... WE ARE!"

"The planet will shake us off like a bad case of fleas... a surface nusiance."

Maybe just a comedian... but he has merit.

Just because he was a comedian, don't underestimate him, He was one hell of a thinker.

Some where I read this year would be the first time in recorded history, that
there would be an open Northwest passage. It don't appear that way on ice
road truckers
Also there have been some unusual holes in the magnetosphere in recent
months{google it}definetly beyond the control of man, and definetly a
carcenogen.
^^^^^^^ How do you spell that word?
