...You couldn't even write a letter to your

...Did you not hear what the scientists were
...finding - 11 of the 12 warmest years since

...and glaciers are melting faster than scientists
...believed possible.
...But you listened to paid hacks and government
...appointees who were protecting their corporate
...friends from any accountability for making billions
...while they spoiled the earth's atmosphere.
Call it capitalism, globalization, whatever......it will soothe them not.
When they realize that the earth's climate was destroyed willfully
despite warnings from thousands of scientists, scientific studies and
research from around the world, our offspring will have a strong case
that we did a bad thing......a really, really bad thing by not attempting
everything in our power to stop something which will affect the earth
for possibly thousands of years!
We now have proof that the neocons have been watering down reports
from the scientific community about rapidly advancing warming of the
earth. Their reasons are totally greed related. In some instances, the
reports from government scientists were entirely 180'd by some non-
scientist Bush appointee who felt the report was contrary to Bush
Administration (oil companies') policies. In most instances, reports
were modified to sound less alarming and more confusing to the public.
They did a very good job at making it difficult for the public to believe
any scientific report....even medical scientific reports were disputed
by someone somewhere, and we all began to yawn at ANY science-
based research. This was a very well planned and deliberate attack
aimed at diffusing public sentiment so they wouldn't be a "problem"
to the powers that be. And it's still working well.
In Europe, the public is much more aware of the consequences of
global warming and the fact that it is occurring right now. Last summer
London saw the largest demonstration ever on this specific issue where
an estimated 50 thousand people gathered to protest their government's
inaction. Here in the US, people are still not quite sure if it is even a problem
or not. The many contrary articles being given print written by hacks paid
by ExxonMobile and others have done a miraculous job of dumming down
the public, and keeping their minds off of this horrendous situation.
Here is a list of articles on scientific research and our government's hand
in misleading the public. These started flowing in mostly European
media in the months just before the IPCC report, and are among the
data that led the IPCC group to issue such a dire report.

Climate Change Impact 'underestimated due to undeclared emissions'
The UK's real impact on global warming has been
hugely underestimated, according to new research
out today.
A report published by Christian Aid reveals millions of tonnes of greenhouse gases
produced by some of the UK's top firms are not being declared.
Almost 200 million tonnes of carbon dioxide - equivalent to around one-third of the
UK's currently declared annual emissions - is missing from the annual reports of
major companies on the London Stock Exchange. But these "missing millions"
are only a small fraction of total undeclared emissions.

snowstorms, because it means they have walked right into his benign trap.
“Actually,” he said recently, “those snowstorms are really a confirmation
of global warming. The lake used to be frozen at this time of year, which
cut down on the moisture coming off it. Now, you’ve got a lot of moisture
and cooler temperatures, which creates more snow.”

The fallout of global warming: 1,000 years
Humans have already caused so much damage to the atmosphere
that the effects of global warming will last for more than 1,000 years,
according to a summary of a climate-change report being prepared by
the world's leading scientists.
The draft, seen by The Globe and Mail yesterday, also says evidence
the world is heating up is now so strong it is “unequivocal” and predicts
more frequent heat waves, droughts and rain storms, as well as more
violent typhoons and hurricanes. It concludes the higher temperatures
observed during the past 50 years are so dramatically different from
anything in the climate record that the last half-century period was likely
the hottest in at least the past 1,300 years.
Moreover, 11 of the past 12 years rank among the warmest since humans
began taking accurate temperature measurements in the 1850s, a record
of extremes so pronounced it is unlikely to be due to chance.

Exposing ExxonMobil's GW Disinformation Campaign by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“Exxon has responded to roars of recent outrage over its anti-social antics by announcing that it has stopped funding the Competitive Enterprise Institute which has collected over $2 million from the oil giant since 1998 to weave lies about climate change - and 4-5 other groups that Exxon refused to name. Exxon’s new contrition is hardly sincere. The company still continues to fund 40 other groups in its unrelenting campaign of deception… As evidence of the company’s insincerity, Exxon’s chief executive and CEO Rex Tillerson, on Friday told world leaders in Davos that oil companies should not be held esponsible for global warming. The blame, he argued, rests instead with the very consumers and government officials his company has spent millions of dollars manipulating and defrauding. America is a decade late in addressing the serious threat from global warming largely due to ExxonMobil’s campaign of deliberate deception. ExxonMobil’s conduct amounts to a war on civilization. The company can’t simply sweep this legacy of fraud and villainy under the rug with a paid op-ed campaign in the New York Times, or with oily statements shifting the blame to consumers. The company needs to cease its campaign of deception completely if it is to genuinely atone for its crimes against humanity.”
