From Right Field: Cut down trees to stop global warming

Now that it’s starting to get hot outside we are going to start hearing these environMENTAL freaks preach to us about global warming. (Ever notice how global warming is never an issue during the cold of winter?) Our leftist counterparts will soon start in with apocalyptic prophecies of polar ice caps melting and the world turning into a desert all because of the greenhouse effect.

And of course, this will lead to them encouraging everyone to go out and hug a tree because, in their view, we wouldn’t be in this mess if we would just quit cutting down trees.

I’m here to inform everybody that global warming is a false phenomenon based upon junk science. An international team of scientists has found “serious discrepancies in the temperature measurements, suggesting that the amount of global warming is much less than previously believed.” Scientists have been measuring the temperature of ocean water to predict the rise in global warming. However, one would believe that if global warming was happening, there would also be a rise in air temperature. Air temperature data collected from the same spots as the water temperature data reveal that there is no link between the water temperature rising due to global warming.

Perhaps the most amazing aspect of these findings is that they have been virtually ignored by the major media. Preaching doom and gloom of planet is big business. Leftists have been predicting planetary destruction since the 1960’s. (That’s over 40 years ago for you victims of outcome based education). We’ve been told for over 40 years that the oceans were going to dry up and that we would need gas masks to protect us from the stench of rotting fish. We’ve been told the ozone hole is going to widen and that we were all going to burn. Leftists like Algore have gone as far to say that the internal combustion engine is the greatest threat to mankind.

Perhaps someone should inform Algore and the rest of the environmental freaks that more greenhouse gases were put into the atmosphere by the Mt. Pinatubo eruption than mankind has created in their whole existence! Aside from that, where is all of the doom and gloom that has been prophesied for the last 40 years?

In closing it should be noted the study showed that some areas of the planet are experiencing global COOLING. Guess where these areas are located? Yep, the areas that have been clear-cut! You see, the more baseball bats we make for Mark McGuire, the better off the planet. Trees actually contribute to global warming! The only way to stop it is to cut down trees to make more paper, baseball bats, tables, chairs and houses.

I now am forced to believe that the best thing about trees is what we turn them into after we cut them down. So move out of the lumberjacks way, tree-hugger! After all, he is just trying to curb global warming.
