[cfgeeks] Documentary: The Great Global Warming Swindle

[Karen Hill]

Regardless if the chart is compressed or not, the number of years in the scale doesn't change.  I recently read something totally unrelated that changed my view on this. I don't claim to be the smartest person around, but when I really tried wrapping my mind around it, I came to the conclusion that we really don't know what will happen or why.  Again, I just believe in being ecologically responsible.  And, FWIW, I did watch it.
"The Earth rotates on its axis at 1,100 miles an hour. As it spins, it orbits the sun at 67,000 miles an hour, taking approximately one year to complete the circuit. The sun, with all its retinue in tow, plunges through space at an incredible 486,000 miles per hour in a giant orbit around the Milky Way's cnetral sun that requires some 226 million years to complete. All the while, [our] galaxy--consisting of 100 billion suns or stars--is moving in its own vast orbit. So you will never return to the same place in space/time again."

Gore's chart compresses the time scale so it looks like it's closer than it is.

The most interesting thing to me about that documentary, however, were
the guys who are on the list of "authors" of the UN's report, who say
the following:

1) They listed people as authors who disagreed with the findings; even
people who disagreed with them so strongly that they resigned got
listed as authors anyway.
2) Many of the people listed aren't scientists; they're government
functionaries who got added to round out the list to 1,500.

You might want to watch it before you disagree with it.  It's very
interesting.  I haven't finished it yet myself.
