Another log on the fire of Truth

 (forwarded by our contributing Doctor of the medical arts and sciences....)
Global warming?
                                       Takes an Australian to tell it like it is!!!
Ian Rutherford Plimer  is an Australian geologist, professor emeritus of earth sciences at the University of Melbourne, Professor of Mining Geology at the University of Adelaide, and the Director of Multiple Mineral Exploration and Mining Companies. He has published 130 scientific papers, six books and edited the Encyclopedia of Geology.

Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From?
Professor Ian Plimer could not have said it better! If you've read his book you will agree, this is a good summary.
PLIMER : "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland recently . Since its first spewing of 
volcanic ash , in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the 
past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.
Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it’s that vital 
chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and all animal life on this planet.
I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have 
accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying 
fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution" 
science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of 
toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing 
at home instead of abroad!!!
Nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 cent light bulbs with 
$10.00 light bulbs.....well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in 
just four days.  The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes, 
FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made 
to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet 
spewing out this crud into the atmosphere - EVERY DAY of the year  
I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the 
volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhouse 
gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.
Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over one year - think about it.  Of course, I shouldn't 
spoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging' moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic 
activity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keeps 
happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.
And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter is 
that the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate 
your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens 
every year.
Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on 
the basis of the bogus 'human-caused' climate-change scenario.  Hey, isn’t it interesting 
how they don’t mention 'Global Warming' anymore, but just 'Climate Change'  - you know why?
It’s because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees  in the past century and these 
global warming ‘BS’ artists got caught with their pants down.  And, just keep in mind that 
you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposed 
on you, that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.
It won’t stop any volcanoes from erupting, that’s for sure!!!
But, hey, relax...... and have a nice day mate !"

A COMMENT FROM EL GRINGO VIEJO:

     We have described before the incident about the professors from West Coast universities making the rounds among the "lesser" universities to advise the teaching corps of the new marching orders.  This occurred back in the 1970s when the anti-capitalist, anti-American elements on campus were converting from anti-war, pro-Ho Chi Minh demonstrations to the "Green Revolution" movement.
     Once again the enemy of babies, minorities, women, and all the oppressed was America.  The cause?  Pollution and industrial (read - capitalist) exploitation of the finite resources of Mother Earth.   Little matter that the filthiest places in the world were the nations perpetually mired in filth and corruption in the un-developable world, and the communist bloc of Workers' Paradises.
      Professors came, some from Berkeley, others from even worse Stalinist strongholds, to lecture the professors at LSU's main campus in Baton Rouge about their new agenda.  My brother was a member of the class to be lectured, among them some of the preeminent lecturers in the world of Geography, Geology, and matters pertaining to Earth - Sun climatic relationships.
      The Wise Ones from the Berkeley set declared that all geography classes would begin next semester with the line of Global Cooling and the destruction of the Ozone Layer.  All were ordered to target flouro-hydrocarbons from aerosol spray cans as one of the main culprits in this human-race killing contamination.   Such devices were an invention of one of Richard Nixon's friends, and that alone made them worthy of abolition. (Snicker, snicker)

     The pitch was made to a totally un-receptive audience of 50 or so instructors and professors who were unimpressed with the science and offended by the high-handedness of the visitors.  Later, during the subsequent years, these same wizards came up with Nuclear Winter, Global Warming, and finally Climate Change.

     One of the reasons they left the LSU meeting in a huff was because one of the lead professors at LSU pointed out to the gaggle of filthy, hairy, unwashed stoners that the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883, between Java and Sumatra darkened the entire Planet for a couple of years.  It also spewed more "greenhouse gasses" in one day than all human-kind had ever spewed and will ever spew due to human activity, industrial or agricultural or grilling in the backyard.   That same volcano had done it all before in the previous century, and as the good Dr. Plimer points out there are over 200 hundred active volcanoes around the Planet spewing forth as we type.

      It is all a sham.  We point out that the brother of this writer became the Chairman of the College of Earth Sciences of Louisiana State University during a stint in the 1980s, and resigned, becoming Professor Emeritus.   He was adamantly opposed to the notions postulated by doomsayers.
     Professor Plimer may be a little full of himself by stating that "it takes an Aussie" to tell it like it is, but his facts and research are certainly consistent with others who follow the stricter regimens required by the scientific method.
