James Inhofe is the United States Senator. He speaks about all the hype on global warming from the media side and science side. He has spoke the most in Washington than anyother politician about the topic. James also talks about former Vice President Al Gore's movie " An Inconvenient Truth." Since 1895, the media has been torn between global warming and cooling. The "hockey stick" first apperead in 1998 in Medieval Times. There were hot and cold periods starting at AD all the way to present times. Scientist believe it was warmer in the Medieval Warm Period, when the Vikings grew crops in Greenland. Carbon Dioxide emissions were also apart of Earth's temperature. One degree Fahrenheit temperature increase during the 20th century meant we are all doomed. One degree Fahrenheit rise the went together with the greatest advancement of living standards, life expectancy, food production, and human health in the history of are planet. Climate alarmnist and media have continued to ignore the fact that The Little Ice Age ended in about 1850. Theory has it that CO2 has been the driving force of global warming. In the 1940's man-made CO2 emissions rose sharpely and then declined in the 1970's. Kyoto Protocol is also mentioned with global warming. There are a lot of scientists out there today debunking the latest scaremongering on climate change.
Personally I thought this artical or story was very long. This artical had a lot of big words in it that were confusing and I had to look them up. It was very nice knowing abut the media side and the science side of it. Here are some things I have never really herd about were the "Hockey Stick" and the "Kyoto Protocol." Well we will discuss more abut this in class tomorrow so I will learn more.
